Napoli victory

Napoli took the lead against Frosinone in the 29th minute. Rasmus Hojlund initially failed to convert a penalty, with his shot saved by Lorenzo Palmisani. However, the referee ordered the penalty to be retaken because the goalkeeper had left his goal line before the kick. De Bruyne converted the second attempt, and three minutes later Noah Lang doubled the hosts' lead.

Scottish midfielder Scott McTominay, who recovered from heart problems, started the game on the bench and came on shortly after the hour mark. Near the end of the match, De Bruyne scored for a second time with a close-range effort. Napoli, who had suffered two defeats and drawn in their previous five matches, moved up to sixth place with 10 points.
