Watch as fortune turns its back on Napoli with a fluke Patrick Cutrone goal, while the woodwork denied Eljif Elmas and Andrea Petagna.
The Partenopei knew early on it wouldn’t be their evening, as Elmas saw his looping effort bounce off the crossbar.
Serie A | Napoli 0-1 Empoli: Fluke Cutrone goal stuns Spalletti
Juan Jesus was offside when bundling over the line from a Mario Rui free kick, but the decisive goal saw Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa accidentally nod a corner onto the back of Cutrone’s head, the ricochet taking it into the net.
Petagna’s strike was also denied by the frame of the goal for Empoli’s first win here since 2008.
Unlucky Napoli. Lucky Empoli.
Pathetic Nabboli, deserving Empoli.
