Juventus beat 10-man Napoli 2-0

Juventus returned to winning ways in Serie A with a 2-0 victory over Napoli. The goals came from Kerim Alajbegovic and Jeremie Boga. Both goals were scored from long-range shots. Luca Marianucci was shown a red card during the match, leaving Napoli with ten men.

Both teams entered the match with 14 points, and both needed a result. Juventus had lost 2-0 to Genoa on Wednesday and had lost three of their last four Serie A matches. Napoli, meanwhile, had regained some confidence with a 4-1 win away at Monza.

In the first half, Lorenzo Lucca's header did not become a goal, as Guglielmo Vicario made a clearance off the line. Alajbegovic's shot from 12 meters in the added time of the first half was also saved well by goalkeeper Alex Meret.

After the break, Marianucci began playing as a right-back. Juventus continued to search for a goal. Alajbegovic sent the ball into the top corner with a powerful shot from the edge of the box, putting Juventus ahead. Boga's goal allowed Juventus to extend their lead.
