Football commentary on Napoli vs Fiorentina match in the semi-finals of the 2023/24 Italian Super Cup
Analyzing the performance of Napoli vs Fiorentina
Napoli has not been themselves this season. The defending champion played extremely poorly and was almost no longer able to defend the throne. The latest victory over Salernitana only temporarily stopped the decline but did not help Napoli much in terms of rankings. They fell to 8th place on the rankings. The Italian Super Cup is almost the only chance for Napoli to win the title this season. However, Fiorentina is not an easy obstacle to overcome for Napoli. In the first leg in Serie A this season, Napoli lost 1-3 to Fio at home.
For Fiorentina, participating in the Top 4 of Serie A is the clearest proof of this team’s ability. In the last 11 matches, Fiorentina only lost 1, drew 3 and won 7 matches. Remember in the first leg of this season in Serie A, Fiorentina had more than 90 extremely wonderful minutes in Naples. They opened the score from the 7th minute, were equalized by their opponents in the first half but excellently scored 2 more goals in the 2nd half to leave with all 3 points.
