In the highly anticipated first round match of the Italian top flight, Verona hosted a strong Napoli team. Before the match, it was widely predicted to be an even match, but the result was surprising, Verona won 3-0 against Napoli, and won a perfect start for the new season.
In the first half, both players showed a high level of competitiveness, but unfortunately neither of them was able to break the deadlock. Napoli's Politano attempted a shot that went wide of the goal, while Lobotka's shot went just over the crossbar. For Verona, K77 quickly advanced to the front after a break, but unfortunately his shot was blocked by Napoli's defender Chashua, who left the field with an injury in the ensuing scramble, adding an element of surprise to the game.
However, the second half turned in Verona's favor. Shortly after the start, Lazovic sent a sublime backheel assist from the outside, and Livramento was able to parry it into position to break the deadlock for Verona. The goal not only galvanized the Verona players, but also sent the home fans into a frenzy.
Napoli then tried to equalize the score by stepping up their attack, but their efforts failed to pay off. On the other hand, Verona's attack was getting stronger and stronger. Anguissa's shot from long range, although powerful, hit the crossbar and bounced out. It was then that substitute Mosquera became the center of attention. Just two minutes after he came on, he received an assist from Lazovic and calmly slotted the ball into the goal to extend Verona's lead. Lazovic then gave another assist and Mosquera scored twice to make it 3-0.
Finally, with the referee's whistle, the match ended. Verona opened the new season with a 3-0 victory over Napoli.
