In the match of the 35th round of the Italian Serie A, Napoli in the native walls proved to be stronger than Cagliari - 3: 1.

Napoli completely dominated Cagliari and won one of the simplest wins of the season.

One of the first attacks of Napoli was effective - Ghulam filed into the penalty area, and Mertens lost his guardianship and scored the 100th goal of Napoli this season.

Napoli continued to control the game and possession of the ball in the first half was almost 75%, but they failed to score again in the first half of the game, despite several excellent chances for Mertens, Insigne and Hamshik.

At the beginning of the second half, Mertens, who today celebrates his 30th birthday, has drawn a double from another assured transfer of Gulam, inflicting an accurate shot at the corner of the goal this time from outside the box.

Napoli continued to crush and on the 67th minute Mertens was noted as an effective transfer, allowing Insigne to score his 15th goal in Serie A in this season. Insigne almost managed to score a second goal ten minutes later, but Raphael parried a powerful blow.

When the outcome of the match was already a foregone conclusion, Cagliari managed to reduce the gap in the second added minute thanks to the goal of substitute Farias.

This victory allowed Napoli to at least temporarily climb to the second position in the Serie A standings, while Cagliari remained in 13th place.
