Napoli Maintains Perfect Serie A Start with 3-2 Win Over Pisa

Napoli maintained a perfect start to the Serie A season with a narrow 3-2 victory over Pisa, extending their lead at the top of the standings to two points. Billy Gilmour scored his first senior club goal to give Napoli an early lead, but Pisa equalized through M’Bala Nzola's penalty. Leonardo Spinazzola and substitute Lorenzo Lucca then scored to restore and extend Napoli's advantage before a late goal from Lorran made the finish tense. Despite the win, Napoli struggled to dominate, posting a low expected goals figure (0.99) compared to Pisa's (2.61), reflecting a less-than-stellar performance following a recent Champions League loss. The victory marked Napoli's fourth consecutive Serie A win and extended their unbeaten run to 16 matches across Europe's top leagues. Coach Antonio Conte downplayed Napoli's squad despite the strong start, seemingly to reduce pressure as the team emerges as title contenders.
