Atalanta Defeats Napoli 3-0 in Serie A

Ademola Lookman starred in Atalanta's impressive 3-0 victory over Serie A leaders Napoli, scoring two goals in the first half. Lookman opened the scoring in the 10th minute with a close-range volley from a Charles De Ketelaere assist and later doubled the lead with a long-range shot from 25 yards out. Mateo Retegui completed the scoring in stoppage time, securing Atalanta's place in second position in the league, just three points behind Napoli. This performance has strengthened Lookman's candidacy for the CAF Player of the Year award, as he has now scored six goals and provided four assists in the league this season. Despite Napoli's strong form under Antonio Conte, this defeat marked only their second loss of the season. Atalanta's victory also highlights their strategic shift, opting for a more unpredictable attack against a previously solid Napoli defense.
