Super League MD06 #13 Napoli v #7 Inter
MD06 - [13] NAPOLI V. [7] INTER [0-0]
ALL TIME RECORD: NAPOLI 6GM; 3W-2L-1D; 11-11 GF/GA
42 matches played in 2020 and we are still waiting for our first scoreless draw! Well if there is a match in 06 that will give us that result, it is this one, and surprise! 0-0 it is.
Goodness there is really not much to say here, yes it was a slog, and there was an ugliness to it, not in the sense of hard fouls, (that would have been welcome), but in ugly, cringey shots and passes. It is hard to even praise the defensive play, though there were some decent moments on that end.
A big match for Napoli GK Alex Meret though, easily the MVP today with some hard saves down the stretch as Inter tried desperately for the win. For Meret it was his first start of the year and with Ospina largely struggling, expect to see more of Meret if not only Meret at least for the foreseeable future.
Inter may be disappointed with the result given the opening to move up the table this match presented, but Napoli deserved the point. A hard-fought affair as expected, Inter will have to regroup quickly as the San Siro hosts Juventus next Monday night. For Napoli, they hope the good times continue to roll in Munich.
