Heavy Defeat for Madmex in Spain / Villarreal 3-1 Napoli | Yellow Submarine Sinks the Parthenopeans!

Napoli lost 3-1 to host Villarreal in their second Champions League group-stage match, a bitter away defeat for Massimiliano Allegri's side.

According to "Varzesh Se", Napoli, who had lost against Arsenal at home in the first week, started the game well and took the lead in the 7th minute with Amir Rahmani's shot. Kevin De Bruyne's short corner was followed by Billy Gilmour's pass, and Rahmani's header, after the goalkeeper's reaction and hitting the post, entered the goal on the rebound.

However, Napoli's advantage did not last long and individual mistakes changed the course of the game.

In the 22nd minute, Matteo Politano's disastrous back pass was intercepted by George Mikautadze for the striker to score the equalizer from a very close angle after Vanja Milinkovic-Savic had gone past.

Minutes later, in the 25th minute, the Italian representative received a second shock; With an unstoppable and spectacular shot from a distance, Santiago Mourinho put the ball away from the hands of the Napoli goalkeeper and into the net for Villarreal to go to the dressing room with a 2-1 victory.

In the second half, Napoli made a lot of efforts to make up for the result and even when the opponent was on the field with 9 players for a few minutes due to the new substitution rule, they could not take advantage of the opportunities. The carelessness of Rasmus Hoylund in hitting the last shots and the brilliance of Luis Jr. in the frame of Villarreal's goal prevented Allegri's students from reaching the equalizing goal.

In the final minutes of the match and on a quick counterattack, Ayo Perez's touch of the heavy ball inadvertently turned into an assist so that in the 85th minute, Tani Olwase scored Villarreal's third goal with an easy and unstoppable shot and completed the work of Partenopi (Napoli's title).
