Venezia claimed a memorable 1–0 victory over Napoli on Saturday, securing their first win of the Serie A campaign after seven rounds. For the visitors, the setback compounds their recent Champions League defeat against Villarreal.
The decisive moment arrived four minutes after halftime, when Adams capitalised on a costly error by Amir Rrahmani. The Venezia forward collected the ball near the edge of the penalty area before calmly beating Alex Meret.
Napoli responded by introducing attacking reinforcements and increased the pressure. Their best opportunity came in the 67th minute, when Rasmus Hojlund won a penalty following a challenge by Moreno. Kevin De Bruyne stepped up but failed to convert, with goalkeeper Filip Stankovic diving correctly to save his effort. The Venezia shot-stopper continued to frustrate Napoli, denying late attempts.
Venezia held firm until the final whistle, celebrating three valuable points while Napoli left empty-handed after wasting crucial opportunities.
