Italian media also fell in love with the performance of Scott McTominay, nicknamed "McMaradona" compared to Napoli legend Diego Maradona.
Napoli came from behind to beat Atalanta 3-2 in the 21st round of Italy's Serie A in the 2024-25 season at 4:45 a.m. on the 19th (Korea time) at the Gevis Stadium in Bergamo, Italy. As a result of the day, Napoli remained atop with 50 points, adding three points.
