Napoli failed to make it to the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia, losing to Como in a penalty shoot-out. The main time of the quarter-final match ended with a score of 1:1, and the guests were more accurate in the penalty shootout – 7:6.

Como opened the scoring in the 39th minute: Baturina converted the penalty kick, hitting the bottom corner, despite the fact that Milinković-Savych guessed the direction of the shot. Before the break, Cesc Fabregas’ team looked confident and controlled the game, preventing Napoli from creating many chances.

Immediately after the break, the Neapolitans recovered. As early as in the 46th minute, Vergara took advantage of an opponent’s defensive error, went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and coolly beat Bute. In the future, Napoli had the initiative, but never managed to press the opponent in the main time.

According to the rules of the tournament, extra time was not foreseen, so the fate of the ticket to the semi-finals was decided in the penalty shootout, where the mistakes of Lukaku and Lobotka became decisive. Como realized his decisive blow and made a historic exit to the semi-finals of the Italian Cup, where he will play against Inter.
