The dream of Napoli lasts a while. Forty-five minutes in which Sarri's men are not satisfied with taking the lead, momentarily reopening qualifying, but dominate Real Madrid in terms of play, despite Cristiano Ronaldo's risk on the post with a 1-0 score for the Azzurri (wood equalized shortly after by Mertens, the author of the goal). In short, it is a completely different game compared to the first leg, when Napoli, despite having taken the lead, had suffered the game of the merengues.
In the second half, however, the usual Sergio Ramos takes care of overturning the game, and he does it in just five minutes: always with his head and always from a corner, his specialty, even if the Napoli rearguard - lined up in the area - it doesn't seem to be without fault. Real Madrid therefore closes the qualification discussion when there is still a lot to play, and Napoli is unable to react: indeed, the 3-1 signed by former Juventus player Alvaro Morata also arrives in recovery, who closes the curtain by setting a score equal to that of the first leg, but this time definitely a liar.
