Cremonese falls into Serie A relegation zone after drubbing at Napoli
NAPLES, Italy (AP) --- Napoli beat Cremonese 4-0 and sent it into the Serie A
relegation zone on Friday.
Scott McTominay got the opener after three minutes with Kevin De Bruyne
providing the assist, his first in Serie A since signing from Manchester City
last summer.
De Bruyne got the third goal on the stroke of halftime with a close-range shot
in a packed penalty box. Two minutes earlier, Danish forward Rasmus Hojlund's
shot was deflected past his own goalkeeper by Filippo Terracciano to make it
2-0 for the home side.
Alisson Santos added the fourth early in the second half with a fine solo
effort as Napoli overran its struggling opponent.
McTominay should have made it 5-0 seven minutes from time but Emil Audero got
down brilliantly to save his penalty.
Cremonese dropped into third-to-last place, equal on points with Lecce but with
an inferior goal difference.
Lecce can lift itself out the relegation zone with a point or a win on Saturday
against joint-bottom side Verona.
Napoli, meanwhile, moved three points above AC Milan into second place. Inter
Milan leads the league by nine points.
