The first goal was scored by captain Di Lorenzo after just 5 minutes. A corner from De Bruyne and a header from the right-back left goalkeeper Gazzaniga with no chance.

Between the 15th and 23rd minute, the Belgian got going himself and scored not once, but twice. The first goal came after a beautiful move set up by his national teammate Lukaku, the second with a shot after a ball deflected by Neres.

An outstanding performance from the exceptional Belgian player – both in this match and for the “Napoli universe.” Fans are beginning to realize just how much his qualities can make a difference in this new season.

💪🏻 Girona responds, Stuani scores twice

Between the 34th and 42nd minute, Girona striker Stuani also scored twice. The first goal was a tap-in after a strong save from Meret, the second a powerful left-footed shot after an assist from Tsygankov.

In the second half, both teams were more fatigued, and as the coaches began to make substitutions, they lost pace and attacking threat. The match ended with no further goals.

Napoli heads into the final phase of pre-season in the best possible form, which concludes on Thursday with the match against Olympiakos.
