A perfect header, a kiss to the fans through the cameras, a great signature on Napoli's victory on the Milan Scudetto field, in the direct clash between the two leaders.
Giovanni Simeone conquers the fans day by day, makes us forget the absence of Osimhen, shows Spalletti the only current path as a center forward after the first half without great opportunities for Raspadori, who is not the first striker.
But there is a good relationship between the two reinforcements in front, as Simeone said yesterday after the match.
"Raspadori is a very good guy - he said - we have a wonderful relationship. Then Spalletti decides who to play, Raspadori and I have different styles of play and the races are different, we are available and whoever chooses the coach will play" .
Arriving in the days of August 15th, Simeone knew he was leaving as Osimhen's substitute, but day after day he carved out his ample space and with the Nigerian's injury he is giving reason to Spalletti who on the eve of San Siro had described Simeone, Raspadori and Kvara as new players "who make us understand - he said - that we are not just addicted to Osimhen.
If he is missing, there are others who bring continuous results, make a correct interpretation from the group for a difficult and long season. "Thesis demonstrated by Simeone's goals against Liverpool, after the defeat of Osimhen, and at Milan, but also by Raspadori at the last minute against Spal. Simeone is there, he loves Naples as an Argentine who grew up in Europe, who knows the Maradonian nature of Neapolitan football well and has chosen the blue for a step forward in his career, as well as Posillipo as a home to better enjoy the city. For his landing in blue, he waited for Petagna's farewell to Monza and Napoli immediately spent 3.5 million for him on the loan, to which 12 at the end of the year will be added for the purchase definitive, which Simeone is already conquering,in a season in which the renewed team was underestimated but now it is already in the long championship fight: "We live every day - said Simeone - with the desire to improve, we are a young group and we want to give everything. The group wants to grow every day ", words that have weight as leaders.
Spalletti also knows that he dreams of the title with the Azzurri and sprinted to make the renewed team work, succeeding.
Now the approach resumes without the 15 called up, from the blues Meret, Di Lorenzo, Zerbin, Politano, Raspadori to Elmas, Lobotka, Ostigard, Mario Rui, Rrahmani, Zielinski, Kvaratskhelia, Lozano, Kim Min-Jae, Olivera.
It remains with Simeone, to study Napoli well, and Osimhen to run in recovery.
The challenge to who scores more has started: last year for the Nigerian 18 goals between the league and the Europa League, for the "Cholito" 17 only in A with Verona.
To enjoy the challenge the fans and the blue club.
