As part of the fourth round of the Europa League group stage, Napoli hosted Croatian Rijeka at home. Gattuso's players won a landslide victory (2: 0) thanks to goals from Politano and Lozano.

The fight took place the day after the legendary Argentine footballer Diego Maradona passed away on November 25. Cause of death of 60-year-old player was cardiovascular arrest.

Napoli, where the Argentinian spent seven years of his career, honored Maradona in his first match after his death.

According to Football Italia, the teams warmed up to the famous song Live is Life, and the Neapolitans went to the fight in T-shirts with the name of Maradona and the 10th number on the back.

This match, like all the other matches of the fourth round of the Europa League group stage, began with a minute of silence in memory of the football player.

After beating Rijeka, Napoli topped the Group F table with nine points in four Europa League games. Gattuso's charges will play their next match on Sunday, November 29, when, as part of the ninth round of Serie A, they will play at home against Roma.

Earlier it was reported that Napoli's home stadium may be named after Maradona.
