Napoli took a very important step towards its clbadification during the elimination phase of the Champions League. In a duel in the penultimate fifth round of the group stage, the Neapolitan beat home the Red Star 3: 1 and maintained his lead before the crucial tournament against Liverpool in December.
Drake Mertens has written his name in the history of Naples with two successful, which makes him the most successful player in the European club tournament. Captain Marek Hamsik also scored the goal. So, for Carlo Ancelotti, the number of players will be enough and it will be necessary to count on the visit of Anfield, where the English will have to defeat at least 2 goals if they want to move on to something else.

San Paolo home fans had the chance to make a mockery of their throats in the 11th minute of the match. On the inside, Insynie scored from a corner on the left, while Nikola Maksimovich continued the ball movement until the goal field where Marek Hamsik was completely forgotten – 1: 0.
Surprisingly, given the superiority of the Neapolitan, Star could equalize in the 23rd minute. Velko Shimic made a very good shot in the bottom right corner of the door and only the timing of David Ospeda kept ahead of Napoli.
This became more visible in the 33rd minute. Fabian Ruis escaped from the left wing to try his luck and sent a deep pbad to the penalty area. He bounced on a defender, but that did not put him on the way to Mertens, who scored a 2-0 draw with a 7-8-yard shot.
The second half brought total comfort to Napoli. In the 52nd minute, Hamsik, from a powerful shot, led Merttens to the central defense. The Belgian jockey of "Ouzuvani", who managed to entrust and with a nice shot the goalkeeper, led the events to 3: 0.
This advance affected Napoli in a way that did not like mentor Carlo Ancelotti. Just five minutes after the Italians' last goal, they caught one, too lightly, at their own door. Marco Marin dominated the ball with his back to the door and bow, and without turning, he dropped a pbadage in a hallway. There was no one left with Mohamed El Fardu and he had no problem to score, keeping an eye on Ospeda – 3: 1.
In the end, there were no more surprises for the hosts and they made the job very professional. Napoli was therefore first in the ninth series, followed closely by PSG (8th), the third place remaining for Liverpool (6). This, however, goes through a national victory over the French on December 11 and the defeat of Liverpool from Naples in England.
