Kim Min-jae marked Lukaku exclusively. Lukaku, who is also called a ‘physical monster’ in Europe, struggled on this day. In the competition between the two, Kim Min-jae won both.

In the 22nd minute of the second half, the home team, Napoli, scored the first goal. Anguisa, who received Zielinski’s pass, split the Inter Milan goal with an exhilarating volley. Soon after, a replacement tactic was used. Osimen and Elmas were out and Giovanni Simeone and Raspadori were replaced.
The next replacement order was Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae was replaced by Joao Jejus in the 29th minute and returned to the bench. Then the Napoli defense was seriously shaken. Lukaku, who had been quiet for about 80 minutes, scored an equalizer in the 37th minute of the second half. This is the moment Lukaku scored his ninth goal in the league this season.
Napoli’s potential was strong. In the 40th minute of the second half, Di Lorenzo scored an additional goal, and in extra time, Gianluica Gaetano scored a key goal to win 3-1. Napoli sprinted to 1st place with 86 points. They beat the pursuit of second place Juventus (69 points) by 17 points. Napoli have 2 games and Juventus have 3 more games left.
