Napoli pushed their winning streak to 13 straight in all competitions, rolling past Sassuolo this afternoon at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
The Partenopei made quick work of Alessio Dionisi’s men scoring three goals in the first half, two of which came inside the first twenty minutes from Victor Osimhen.
With just under ten minutes remaining before halftime, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia scored his 6th league goal of the campaign and extended Napoli’s lead to 3-0.
After a lifeless first half, Sassuolo showed a bit of spirit and fight after the break.
Midfielder Davide Frattesi had two golden opportunities to find the back of the net early in the second half but was thwarted by Alex Meret on both occasions.
After coming on for Andrea Pinamonti, Sassuolo striker Agustín Álvarez immediately created multiple opportunities but the Neroverdi failed to the capitalise.
They would be made to pay just moments later when Victor Osimhen piled on the misery and secured a hat trick in the 82nd minute, ending the affair at 4-0.
