Napoli defeats Sorrento 4-0 and secures their third preseason victory after wins against Catanzaro and Girona. The goals for Antonio Conte’s team were scored by Lucca in the 12th minute, McTominay in the 21st minute, and Lukaku with a brace in the second half.
Good signs for the Italian champions, who took few risks and showed several offensive actions throughout the 90 minutes.
🚀 Strong first half: Lucca and McTominay score the goals
New signing Lorenzo Lucca continues to prove himself in top form this preseason. This time, the former Udinese striker scored his third goal since joining Napoli in the 12th minute, heading in a cross from Spinazzola on the left, having already scored against Catanzaro and Brest.
In the 21st minute, Scott McTominay scored his first goal of the preseason: the Serie A 24/25 MVP received the ball on the left, moved towards the center, and fired a precise shot into the far corner. McTominay narrowly missed a brace from a free kick, but Sorrento’s goalkeeper made a brilliant save to deny the Scot.

In the second half, Napoli made several substitutions, and the change that further impacted the game was the introduction of Romelu Lukaku: in the 75th minute, he made it 3-0 thanks to a slight deflection of a shot from Luis Hasa, then Big Rom also scored the 4-0 five minutes before the end. This time, McTominay played a ball to Zanoli on the right, whose cross was perfectly met by Lukaku, who fired home in the box.
