Massimiliano Allegri&#8217;s Azzurri edged past Bologna at the Maradona to return to winning ways, courtesy of a solitary strike from Stanislav Lobotka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bologna, by contrast, remain mired in early-season misery. Four matchdays in, the Rossobl\u00f9 have mustered just a single point, leaving Domenico Tedesco&#8217;s charges in desperate need of answers to halt an increasingly concerning slump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet it was the visitors who thought they had made the dream start. Theate turned the ball into the net following a free-kick delivered by Ferguson, only for the strike to be chalked off for offside. Napoli responded with intent through De Bruyne and H\u00f8jlund, both of whom came agonisingly close to breaking the deadlock before an evenly poised first half ended goalless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The breakthrough finally arrived in the 66th minute. Favasuli raided down to the byline and clipped an inviting ball into the box for Lobotka, who beat Pessina with an emphatic first-time finish to settle the contest. It proved a priceless goal, enabling Napoli to protect their slender advantage until the final whistle and toast a much-needed triumph on the back of three straight losses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A solitary strike from Lobotka restored the smile to Na [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2555,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2554"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2556,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2554\/revisions\/2556"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
