Napoli were unbeaten at San Siro in Serie A since 2014, winning their last three encounters in a row, but that tradition ended on Sunday night.A smooth first-half link-up between Rafael Leao and Theo Hernandez was just enough for AC Milan to beat pale Napoli 1-0 and continue their excellent Serie A campaign.monstrous performance from theo hernandez vs napoli scored a great goal, defended well and lead the team as captain! the best left-back in the world 👍 pic.twitter.com/tewAFlozS5— christian (@caquino__) February 11, 2024 On the other hand, there was only a single early opportunity for the visitors, as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia rolled across from the right, only for Giovanni Simeone to fire off target from close range.Unlike Simeone Jr, the French full-back made no mistakes in front of Pierluigi Gollini, finishing it superbly at the near post.Leao was close to adding a second with a right-foot curler from distance, but the Portuguese forward has been struggling to return to his goal-scoring form.##NAJAVA_MECA_7862581##From that moment on, the match declined into an evenly-matched battle in the midfield, with almost nothing worthwhile on both ends before the Partenopei had a massive double opportunity in the 89th minute.Firstly, Jan Simic risked an own goal by deflecting the Lindstrom effort onto the upright, and then Maignan flew to palm the Politano follow-up over the bar.However, it stayed 1-0 as the defending champions are getting as far away from their second Serie A title in a row as possible.SERIE A – MATCHDAY 24FridaySalernitana – Empoli 1-3 (0-1)/Wissman 69 – Zanoli 23 og, Niang 88 pen, Cancellieri 90+4/SaturdayCagliari – Lazio 1-3 (0-1)/Gaetano 51 – Deiola 26 og, Immobile 50, Anderson 65/Roma – Inter 2-4 (2-1)/Mancini 28, El Shaarawy 44 – Acerbi 17, Thuram 49, Angelino 56 og, Bastoni 90+3/Sassuolo – Torino 1-1 (1-1)/Pinamonti 5 – Zapata 9/SundayFiorentina – Frosinone 5-1 (3-0)/Belotti 16, Ikone 19, Quarta 43, Gonzales 53/Bologna – Lecce 4-0 (2-0)/Beukema 5, Orsolini 27, 49, Odgaard 82/Monza – Verona 0-0Genoa – Atalanta 1-4 (0-1)/Malinovskiy 51 – De Ketelaere 22, Koopmeiners 55, Zappacosta 90, Toure 90+2/AC Milan – Napoli 1-0 (1-0)/Hernandez 25/Monday22:45: (1.43) Juventus (4.30) Udinese (8.00)***odds are subject to change***
