The Egyptian proved that he is a much better player than the Georgian

Napoli's moment of grace is not only due to the great collective play of the team, but also thanks to the incredible individuality that makes this institution one of the most dangerous in Serie A and the UEFA Champions League, highlighting in both competitions the Georgian player, Jvicha Kvaratsjelia who plays as a winger on the left flank.

Despite the fact that Group A was practically defined, the duel between Liverpool and Napoli continued with a high level of play where both institutions went out from the first second to look for the victory, forming an interesting duel precisely on the left flank for the Georgian Kvaratsjelia, as he faced a Mohamed Salah who really put him to the test in terms of generating danger directly or indirectly.

The fact that Jvicha Kvaratsjelia is considered by many in Italy as the new great promise of Europe and is being compared to a world legend like Diego Armando Maradona, speaks volumes about the high expectations that the Gli Azzurri have at the moment, with coach Jurgen Klopp adding to the interest in the Georgian on his visit to Anfield, the German comparing the qualities of both his opponent and his Egyptian player.

For the first 45 minutes at Anfield, both Kvaratsjelia and Salah had been among the most active players on the pitch, with the Liverpool player creating a greater sense of danger in the box with a couple of moves that ended in assists for his team-mates, with Thiago Alcantara's long-range effort off Salah's pass and the Egyptian's one-on-one with Alex Meret being the highlights.

The second half belonged to Jvicha in the early stages of the game, with a cross into the box that Victori Osimhen scored but was offside, and then the same Georgian striker had his chance to open the scoring with a shot from the edge of the six-yard box, but unluckily Alexander-Arnold's deflection and Alissson Becker's save prevented him from doing so.
