Italy Cup, Napoli-Frosinone 0-4

The potential quarterfinal between Napoli and Juventus will not be there; in fact, the partenopei were eliminated from the Coppa Italia on Tuesday evening by a brilliant Frosinone, able to impose itself with a resounding 4-0 on Walter Mazzarri’s team in the round of 16 played at the ‘Maradona’. A match that è unlocked only after the half hour, rewarding the team more ù good at taking advantage of the opportunities created and the very inertia of the match.

The match initially lived in flashes, with both teams playing openly and Napoli making itself more dangerous in the first half: Cerofolini denied the joy of a goal to Lindstrom at 16′, Raspadori hit the post six minutes later. At 37′ a goal would also arrive, scored by a Giovanni Simeone good at taking advantage of Okoli’s defensive topica, but after a long consultation first in the Var room and then by referee Abisso at the on-field review comes the cancellation for a touch of Lindstrom’s hands at the start of the action. So it comes to halftime on 0-0.

The resumption sees Napoli hit another woodwork, on 53’this time with Mario Rui. Walter Mazzarri tries to rely on the heavy artillery by inserting Di Lorenzo, Lobotka and especially Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen, but at 65′ comes the mocking 0-1: Garritano cross and Enzo Barrenechea header, the parabola taken by the ball deceives Gollini and the ciociari take the lead.

Napoli completely lost its bearings and Frosinone took advantage by scoring practically every time it could: at 70′ Giuseppe Caso doubled taking advantage of a mistake in Di Lorenzo’s disengagement, at 91′ Walid Cheddira made it 3-0 on a penalty kick caused again by a shocked Di Lorenzo (stomping in the box against Gelli). On the counterattack then came the poker, with Abdou Harroui, at 95′ a goal that preceded the final whistle by a few seconds.

Napoli è therefore out of the Coppa Italia, eliminated as last year by a team fighting for salvation (then it was Cremonese, thoughé only after penalties). It will therefore be Frosinone that will face in the quarterfinals the winner of the challenge between Juventus and Salernitana, which will be staged on January 4 at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

Carlos Sainz returns on farewell to Ferrari and è candid about Lewis Hamilton

During an interview given to the microphones of the Spanish newspaper “As”, Carlos Sainz è returned to talk about his farewell to Ferrari to make way for seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton starting in 2025.

“I have no negative words toward Ferrari, and I don&#39t think they have any negative feelings toward me either. It’s a relationship that hasn’t been broken because we’re not happy with each other, but because of a circumstantial issue. I remain convinced that if Hamilton had not wanted to end his career at Ferrari, I would have renewed. To a seven-time world champion, però è impossible to say no and I understand the team&#39s choice to confirm Charles and not me” began the Spanish driver.

“When I arrived at Ferrari, the team was going through a very difficult time. In 2020 they were far behind the best. I am very proud of the progress this team has made thanks in part to my work. These have been seasons that have allowed me to win my first F1 races, get my first pole positions and win several podiums. I am happy to have come to a historic team and to have had the pleasure of driving Ferrari over these years” continued the’former McLaren.

“Charles è one of the fastest drivers I have ever faced, especially on a dry lap. Between us the difference è always been minimal. The only problems came from always going to the track together, one after the other, but that è was the advantage of Ferrari with a very balanced pair of drivers” added the Spanish number 55.

“My next adventure will be at Williams, where I will try to do something similar to what I did in Ferrari and McLaren. I want to help the team improve moving forward. I have the experience and the good energy to help them progress. I have been good in the past and my next goal è to bring the stable to the top 10. If we do well in the next two years, I would like to be able to bet on Williams again in the future” concluded Carlos Sainz.

“The origins of Jannik Sinner, who è is from South Tyrol, suggest that he could have become the world number one in skiing. This we can never know, but we certainly know that he è become the number one in tennis” began the CONI president.

“Volunteers are crucial to the Olympics. Without them such an event would not be economically sustainable. Sinner will be the No. 1 volunteer in Milan-Cortina. It’s really a lot of stuff” added Giovanni Malagò.
