Como 1907 - Napoli 2:1

In a stunning upset, Como, led by former star Cesc Fàbregas, delivered the shock of the round in Serie A by defeating league leaders Napoli 2-1 at home. The result prevented Napoli from reclaiming the top spot in the table, leaving them trailing Inter Milan.

The hosts took an early lead thanks to an own goal by Napoli's Amir Rrahmani, but the visitors quickly equalized through Giacomo Raspadori, who capitalized on a defensive error to slot home a one-on-one chance. However, the final word belonged to Como. In the 77th minute, Assan Diallo found space between two Napoli defenders, received a pinpoint pass from Nico Paz, and fired a precise shot from the edge of the box to secure a historic victory.

This win marks Como's first triumph over Napoli since 1952, adding an extra layer of significance to the result.
