Scott McTominay’s goal secures Napoli’s win over Torino, boosting their Serie A lead. The team continues to show improvement after the international break.
McTominay found the net in the 31st minute, showcasing his skills since joining Napoli from Manchester United in August. He has now scored four goals in 12 games for his new club.
This goal was particularly significant as it was McTominay’s second in three matches. He had previously scored during a 1-1 draw against Inter Milan, another top team in the league.
After the match, McTominay expressed his satisfaction, saying, “I’ve scored two important goals in the last three games, but the whole team deserves credit.” He emphasized the team’s improvement and the importance of maintaining their momentum.
Coach Antonio Conte praised McTominay’s contributions, noting that the club made a smart decision in signing him. He highlighted the collective effort of the team and the growth that comes from each player’s development.
In the match, Torino’s Che Adams missed a golden opportunity to score early on, sending a free header wide from close range. This miss proved costly for Torino as Napoli took control of the game.
As the weekend progressed, Napoli remained a point ahead of four teams tied for second place, including Fiorentina and Inter Milan. The match between Inter Milan and Fiorentina was interrupted when Edoardo Bove collapsed on the field.
In other matches, Lazio faced a tough loss against Parma, going down 3-1. Meanwhile, Atalanta’s game against Roma is scheduled for Monday evening, adding more excitement to the Serie A standings.
