Claudio Ranieri's return to Roma faced immediate challenges, as they struggled offensively, notching only two attempts in the first half against Napoli, ultimately losing 1-0.
Former Roma striker Romelu Lukaku proved decisive in the match, scoring his fifth goal of the Serie A season, sealing a 1-0 victory for Napoli.
Despite a new coach, Roma displayed a concerning trend with only three victories in their first 13 Serie A matches, a first since the 1978-79 season.
Ranieri's appointment did not yield an immediate positive impact, as Roma finished the first half with fewer than 70 successful passes, their worst record in nearly two decades.
