Champions Napoli started to get chances against relegated Sampdoria only in the second half. After one of them, the Nigerian Osimhen was fouled in the penalty area, who then himself converted the penalty kick. At the end of the match, Simeone confirmed the victory for the home team with a successful shot from behind the goal. The team was last led by coach Spalletti, who already announced last week that he wanted to take a break from football.
