The midfielder timed his run perfectly to meet <strong>David Neres\u2019<\/strong> pinpoint cross, powering the ball past Lecce\u2019s goalkeeper <strong>Wladimiro Falcone<\/strong> to hand Napoli all three points.<\/p>\n<p>Lecce could have changed the course of the match earlier when <strong>VAR<\/strong> awarded them a penalty in the 55th minute, but teenage forward <strong>Francesco Camarda<\/strong> saw his effort from the spot brilliantly saved by <strong>Vanja Milinkovi\u0107-Savi\u0107<\/strong>. That miss proved costly, as Napoli punished the hosts just moments later.<\/p>\n<p>Statistically, the visitors were the more dominant side \u2014 finishing with <strong>14 shots to Lecce\u2019s 7<\/strong>, and <strong>5 corners to 3<\/strong>. Napoli captain <strong>Giovanni Di Lorenzo<\/strong> and full-back <strong>Mathias Olivera<\/strong> also went close, but Anguissa\u2019s clinical header proved enough.<\/p>\n<p>The victory reinforces Napoli\u2019s impressive early-season form, taking them to <strong>21 points from 9 games<\/strong> and keeping them firmly at the top of the Serie A standings. For Lecce, the defeat leaves them on <strong>6 points<\/strong>, still struggling to convert chances despite promising spells of play.<\/p>\n<p>For <strong>Zambo Anguissa<\/strong>, it was another complete performance. The Indomitable Lion not only scored his <strong>fourth goal of the campaign<\/strong>, but also earned his <strong>fifth Player of the Match award<\/strong> this season \u2014 a testament to his consistency and growing leadership in the Napoli midfield.<\/p>\n<p>The 28-year-old continues to be a driving force for the Partenopei, blending defensive discipline with attacking intent, and his contributions have been central to Napoli\u2019s strong start to the season.<\/p>\n<p>Napoli return home to face <strong>Torino<\/strong> at the weekend, while Lecce will travel to <strong>Empoli<\/strong> as they seek to rebound from Tuesday\u2019s disappointment.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92025 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
