Diego Maradona Stadium was the place where Juventus visited SSC Napoli for a new Serie A match on Saturday. We got the player ratings..

SSC Napoli met Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus at Diego Maradona Stadium for a fresh Serie A match. Keep in mind that these two clubs still haven’t played in the competition this season after the first-half game was postponed. Today, Juventus comes in dire need of a victory against one of the most competitive football clubs in Italian football. Gennaro Gattuso decided to use most of his offensive player available for tonight’s game against Cristiano Ronaldo.

The local side took advantage of their own stadium in order to control most of the ball possession. Hirving Lozano gave a fantastic performance despite not being able to score a goal tonight. He was fast from the flanks and Juventus’ defense was always trying to stop him. We weren’t able to see goals until past the first half hour, when Napoli got a window of opportunity to score from the spot.
