King Kev' steals the spotlight while Lang eyes a fresh start at Napoli

Noa Lang can celebrate his arrival at Napoli, but King Kev' De Bruyne is demanding every eye on himself after shaping the club’s first three points of the new Serie A season.

Napoli began the away clash against Genoa under Massimiliano Allegri with a difficult start. The home side pressed early, but failed to score, leaving the scoreline at 0‑0 at the break.

De Bruyne's decisive impact

The Rode Duivel Kevin De Bruyne started the match on the bench, but after his substitution he broke the ban and immediately became a central figure. In the 82nd minute he received a clever flick from Antonio Vergara inside the penalty area, held off Johan Vásquez and out‑witted Justin Bijlow to open the scoring.

Five minutes later De Bruyne provided the assist for the second goal. From the right flank he delivered a precise pass to Lorenzo Lucca, whose ball found Vergara, who slotted home to make it 0‑2.

Both goals underscored why Allegri brought on De Bruyne, Vergara and the Ajax‑target Lang in the 67th minute, describing the move as a golden decision.

Lang joins Napoli

Ook Noa Lang fell in at the side from Napels, adding fresh attacking options for the visitors. While his debut came late in the game, the Dutch forward’s presence was noted as a promising development for the squad.

Napoli’s victory, secured by De Bruyne’s “King Kev” performance, gave the club its first three points of the Serie A season, while Lang’s arrival signals a new chapter for the team.
