The 2023 Scudetto winner risks being left without European competition, and Motta’s sensational team has taken a confident step towards the Champions League
Bologna achieved a crucial away victory over Napoli in the match of the 36th round of the Italian Serie A – 2:0.
The guests shocked the ex-champion with a double blow in the opening. First, Dame Ndoye brought the ball into the goal from a few centimeters after a cross from Jens Odgaard, and then Stefan Posch corrected Riccardo Calafiori’s shot from a corner.
In the middle of the half, the Partenopeians had the opportunity to get one goal back, but Federico Ravaglia pulled away from Matteo Politano’s penalty for a foul on Victor Osimhen.
For the rest of the time, Francesco Calzona’s team attacked unsuccessfully, and Thiago Motta’s team, accordingly, successfully restrained the opponent.
The Rosso-Blues have not lost in eight matches, and since mid-January they have suffered only one defeat – from Inter. Bologna has secured third place and has almost secured its historic entry into the Champions League.
Napoli (remember, champion of Italy 2023) at the end of the round risks sliding to ninth place and, as a result, missing out on European competition altogether.
