Napoli extended their Serie A lead by clinching a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Lecce, maintaining a three-point advantage over Roma. Andre-Frank Anguissa scored the lone goal in the 69th minute, securing Napoli’s victory following their intense match against Inter Milan. With 21 points from nine matches, Napoli leads the table, ahead of Roma who will face Parma. AC Milan trails behind in third place. Coach Antonio Conte praised the team’s resilience, especially after a demanding game against Inter. Anguissa’s goal, his fourth this season, helped Napoli secure a consecutive win and stabilize their performance after a series of challenging results. Goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic made crucial saves, including blocking Francesco Camarda’s penalty kick. Napoli faced player absences, with Kevin De Bruyne sidelined due to a hamstring injury and Anguissa set to miss games during the Africa Cup of Nations. Despite injuries, Napoli continues to adapt and perform well. Lecce, on the other hand, remains in 16th place with six points, facing their fifth defeat of the season.
