Uncompromising cannonball! Valverde fires a mid-range shot that misses everything in its path. Watch his beautiful shot

The Champions League offered a rich programme on Tuesday, but the duel between Napoli and Real Madrid stood out in terms of attractiveness. The first half offered an attractive spectacle and the second half was no different. Federico Valverde decided the duel with a beautiful goal.

Naples has not started the new season in an ideal way, they are starting slowly, but they have to solve several problems. There is a lot of talk about the atmosphere in the cabinet or whether Rudi Garcia can succeed as a coach and follow his predecessor Luciano Spalletti.

After the title season, euphoria reigned under Vesuvius, and it was hoped to emulate the previous Champions League campaign, which was the most successful in the club’s history, even though it ended in the quarter-finals.

However, the Partenopei made it through the opening round of the millionaire competition by winning at Braga. In the second round, however, they faced a tougher task. In fact, one of the toughest possible. Real Madrid arrived at the shrine named after Diego Maradona.

It was going to be an attractive and attacking game, and that’s exactly what the fans got from the start. Three goals in the first half. Jude Bellingham in particular shone with a fantastic goal and assist.

In the second act, however, Naples was looking for a point. It managed to level the score at 2: 2, but Federico Valverde was up against a point loss. He may not be a frequent scorer, but when the Uruguayan all-rounder scores, it’s usually worth it.

And it was no different now. In the 78th minute, he got to a deflected ball after a corner kick and sent a hard drive at the Napoli goal from mid-range that found its way into the net thanks to its impact.

It was the winning goal. It was Valverde’s second goal of the season. Real Madrid won 3: 2.
