A goal in the 96th minute from Luvumbo allows Cagliari to draw 1-1 at home against Napoli and join Sassuolo and Verona on 20 points.
Ranieri confirms ten elevenths in Udine's starting line-up, with Zappa making way for Nandez, who will have to deal with Kvaratshkelia. Balanced match, with Napoli keeping the ball and Cagliari trying to attack on the counterattack, relying on the ideas of Luvumbo and Gaetano. Meret, in the 24th minute, had to intervene on Lapadula's header, while Scuffet (28') had to dive on Raspadori's shot from distance. In the 32nd minute Cagliari went ahead with an own goal from Rrahmani, but the VAR recalled Pairetto who canceled it due to an offside position by Lapadula. In the 42nd minute Meret comes out in an avalanche and Luvumbo, with an empty net, puts his header wide. The game continues for another 4 minutes, but the score does not change and the teams go to half-time at 0-0.
The balance remained even in the second half and in the 16th minute Ranieri threw Pavoletti, Zappa and Viola into the fray for Lapadula, Jankto and Gaetano. Then the usual blackout: in the 20th minute the defense remained motionless on a quickly taken corner, but Osimhen's header was saved by Scuffet. A minute later, Augello loses the ball on the outgoing midfield, Raspadori runs away and this time Osimhen doesn't forgive.
Cagliari takes the lead, but loses Pavoletti to injury, replaced by Petagna. Oristanio is also seen again for Augello. Rossoblù unbalanced and Napoli, in the 44th minute, came close to doubling their lead on the counterattack with Politano. Former Simeone also tries, but Scuffet saves himself in the corner, while Lobotka puts it just wide. And in the 51st minute, the apotheosis: a desperation throw from Dossena is not controlled by Juan Jesus and behind him is Luvumbo's winning strike for the incredible 1-1. And the Domus can rejoice again.
