Serie A, Cremonese-Napoli 0-2

Turin, Dec. 28 (LaPresse) – Napoli beat Cremonese 2-0 away in the Serie A matchday 17 fixture and climb to 34 points in the standings, temporarily in second place, one point behind leaders Milan. Rasmus Hojlund was the star of the show with a brace in the first half, scoring into an empty net from two yards out in the 13th minute after a shot by Spinazzola was deflected by Terracciano, and then again in the 45th minute, again in a scramble, with a winning turn in the heart of the six-yard box. Nicola’s team suffered their second defeat in their last three games and remain stuck on 21 points, mid-table.
