SSC Napoli vs Como 1907

Como pulled off a statement victory at the Diego Armando Maradona, edging Napoli 1-2 in matchday two and handing Cesc Fabregas's side their first win of the season while inflicting Napoli's first defeat of the campaign. Martín Baturina put the visitors ahead around the 17th minute after a slick move down the flank. Rasmus Højlund leveled things for Napoli just before the half-hour mark with a well-struck finish, but Como responded quickly through Anastasios Douvikas in the 34th minute, pouncing on a Napoli defensive slip after Baturina won the ball back high up the pitch. The second half saw a scare when Kevin De Bruyne and Ivan Smolcic clashed heads in a heavy collision, with both needing treatment before continuing. Napoli thought they'd salvaged a point deep into stoppage time, but the goal was chalked off for offside. The result leaves Napoli, fresh off an opening win over Genoa, with plenty to fix defensively, while Como's away win follows a draw with Udinese and marks a strong early signal under Fabregas.
