FC Porto beat Napoli 4-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday night, according to Sportmediaset, handing Porto coach Farioli his first win in European competition. The result leaves Napoli and their coach Allegri with another defeat in the competition.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Napoli conceded early in the match, drew level, and then fell apart in the second half as Porto pulled away to the 4-1 final score. Corriere della Sera described it as a nightmare night for the Italian side, framing the match as Farioli getting the better of Allegri.
Sportmediaset's headline also noted that Allegri has now lost again in Europe, without giving further detail on Napoli's record in the competition.
The reports agree on the shape of the game: an early setback for Napoli, a brief recovery before half-time, and a decisive collapse after the interval. Beyond the scoreline and that sequence, the available summaries do not give details of the scorers or the exact minutes of the goals.
