Going into the Sunday’s match, Osimhen had found the net in Napoli’s previous three games across all competitions.

The current CAF Player of the Year missed an 88th-minute penalty, but Giacomo Raspadori seized the opportunity, scoring the rebound to secure Napoli’s 2-1 victory.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia had initially put Napoli in the lead in the 42nd minute, while Federico Chiesa equalized for Juve in the 81st minute.

Napoli have now won five home matches in a row against Juventus for the first time in their Serie A’s history.

Also, Juventus have lost five away games in a row against a single opponent in Serie A for the first time since a streak of six against Fiorentina between 1960 and 1964.
