In the 7th minute, Hojlund put Napoli ahead with a precise close-range finish, following an assist from David Neres.
On the other side of the pitch, another young star, Kenan Yildiz, also shone to help Juventus equalize 1-1. However, the visitors still left the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium empty-handed. In the 78th minute, a misplaced clearance by Weston McKennie inadvertently became an assist for Hojlund, who headed the ball in from close range to seal a 2-1 victory for the home side.
Juventus' eight-match unbeaten run across all competitions has ended, leaving them outside the European qualification spots. Currently, "The Old Lady" is eight points behind league leaders Napoli and four points behind fourth-placed AS Roma.
