But the result registered tonight by Napoli, 0-0 in Como, simplifies his path to the trophy. With De Bruyne, McTominay and Lobotka in the middle, Hojlund in attack and Politano and Miguel Gutierrez on the flanks, Napoli produced only one shot on Butez's goal.
Como was the more dangerous team, 5-1 in square shots, 16-8 in chances, 2-1 in high scoring chances and a superior xG, but couldn't score either.
