Pisa - Napoli 0:3

Napoli secured qualification for the 2026/27 UEFA Champions League after a commanding 3-0 away victory against bottom-placed Pisa in the penultimate round of the Serie A season.

Knowing that victory would mathematically guarantee their place in next season’s league phase, the Naples side approached the match with focus and intensity, and quickly demonstrated the gulf in quality between the two teams.

Scott McTominay opened the scoring during a dominant first-half display before defender Amir Rrahmani doubled Napoli’s advantage prior to the break. Late in the match, Rasmus Højlund added the finishing touch to complete a convincing victory for the visitors.

The result officially confirms Napoli as the 23rd club to qualify for the 2026/27 Champions League.
