"Bologna were forced into a change of goalkeeper in the eighth minute, with Massimo Pessina replacing the injured Lukasz Skorupski to make his senior debut. And he made the first save of the match, getting low to hold onto Eljif Elmas' curler after a pacey Napoli counter-attack, but Bologna grew into the contest, with Dallinga's long-range strike needing to be palmed away by Vanja Milinkovic-Savic."
"It took the hosts just five second-half minutes to break the deadlock; Nicolo Cambiaso raced down the left before pulling it back from the byline, and Dallinga's deft flick at the near post took it past the goalkeeper. Riccardo Orsolini saw a tight-angled volley punched away by Milenkovic-Savic, but Lucumi met Emil Holm's cross to guide a header into the bottom-right corner."
Napoli's attack faltered as they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Bologna at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, dropping to second in Serie A while Bologna moved up to fifth. Massimo Pessina replaced the injured Lukasz Skorupski in the eighth minute to make his senior debut and made an early save from Eljif Elmas. Thijs Dallinga opened the scoring early in the second half after Nicolo Cambiaso's byline cross, and Jhon Lucumi doubled the lead with a header from Emil Holm's cross. Napoli registered only one shot on target, failed to score for a third consecutive match, and finished with fewer than five total shots for the first time since February 2021. Atalanta lost 3-0 to Sassuolo, and Fiorentina drew 2-2 with Genoa as Paolo Vanoli and Daniele De Rossi took charge of their first games.
