Napoli 2- 4 Barcelona Match Summary

An explosive first-half performance by Barcelona was enough to knock the stuffing out of a rattled Napoli side today, and the home team never really recovered, as they limp out of Europe again before reaching the last-16 stage.

With their midfield purring and an increasingly coherent attacking strategy, the Blaugrana roll on to the next round, where they will be a side to be feared in Europe’s second-tier tournament. As well as breezing through against a team with one of Europe’s best defensive records, the Catalans also take home a small slice of history – adding Napoli to six other Italian sides they have beaten away from home in continental competition.

“Frenkie de Jong is a genius – he’s really, really amazing”.
