De Bruyne double and McTominay return as Napoli beat Frosinone 3-0
Post
๐ฐ Kevin De Bruyne's double and Scott McTominay's return lifted Napoli to a 3-0 win over Frosinone.
๐ Key points
โฝ De Bruyne scored twice: a penalty and a stoppage-time goal.
๐ Hรธjlund's penalty was saved, but a retake was ordered as the keeper moved early.
๐ณ๐ฑ Noa Lang added a second on 32 minutes.
๐ McTominay, back after a heart procedure, came off the bench on 61 minutes.
๐ Napoli are on 10 points, level with Juventus, Como and Frosinone.
๐ What happened
๐ฏ Napoli hosted Frosinone at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 10 October. Hรธjlund was brought down by Cittadini on 25 minutes, but his penalty was saved by Palmisani. The kick was retaken because the goalkeeper had moved early, and De Bruyne converted on 29 minutes.
โก Three minutes later Lang made it 2-0. De Bruyne completed a 3-0 win in the fourth minute of stoppage time, set up by Giovane.
๐ The loudest cheer was for McTominay. Cleared to play a month after a heart procedure, he came on on 61 minutes. Allegri had said before the game that he was "not yet at 100%".
๐ฃ๏ธ Allegri said "matches must be won on the pitch", admitting Napoli had dropped points through their own mistakes.
๐ By the numbers
โข Score: Napoli 3-0 Frosinone
โข De Bruyne: 2 goals (29' pen, 90+4')
โข McTominay on: 61 minutes
โข Napoli points: 7 โ 10
๐ญ Why it matters
Napoli had taken seven points from five games, their worst start since 2015-16, piling pressure on Allegri. This win and McTominay's return offer a platform for a recovery, but they remain six points behind leaders Inter and Lazio (16).
