From the source
The narrative of Sunday night’s game between Juventus and Napoli was that of a meeting of two clubs in crisis. Juve’s bottle job in Genoa on Wednesday had piled the pressure onto Luciano Spalletti, while Massimilano Allegri was trying to pull Napoli out of their own spiral.
Both teams were riven with injuries. Both desperately need three points to try to get themselves back on track.
It was Juventus that came away with those points in an uninspiring game that was decided in the last 20 minutes by a pair of absolutely brilliant moments from Kerim Alajbegovic and Jérémie Boga, both producing some goals of the season with thrilling strikes that ended the hopes for the 10-man Partenopei in a 2-0 win for the Bianconeri.
