A bad evening for Juan Jesus. Cleared from the first minute against Lazio, the Napoli defender was in constant difficulty against the Biancoceleste attack in a very complicated match for Antonio Conte’s men, defeated 3-1 in the capital and therefore eliminated from the Italian Cup. “Captain for one evening – writes the Gazzetta dello Sport on newsstands today – but it’s one of the complicated ones. He tries to bring in experience, but the high gear pace of the Lazio forwards suffers. “He too is dazzled by the quality of Lazio” he analyzes today’s edition of Tuttosport. “Against Pedro, who travels at double the speed of his legs and thoughts, landslides repeatedly – highlights the Corriere dello Sport – slipped from behind on the penalty and on the heel of the encore”.
For TMW, which however gives him an insufficient rating, the Brazilian is “the best of the rearguard, even if on Noslin’s second goal he is mocked by Pedro’s movement who puts him out of the game with a backheel”. Also bad for the colleagues from TuttoNapoli.net who instead commented: “He doesn’t put his body on Zaccagni on the penalty action. Soft at 3-1. The usual misfortune”.
