<p><a target="_blank" href="https://gistreel.com/tag/napoli" rel="noopener"><strong>Napoli’s</strong></a> hopes of advancing in the <strong>Champions League</strong> were dashed as they suffered a 3-1 defeat against <a target="_blank" href="https://gistreel.com/?s=barcelona" rel="noopener"><strong>Barcelona</strong></a>, to exit the competition.</p>
<p>Despite a strong start from Napoli, it was Barcelona who took the lead through Fermin Lopez’s well-placed shot from 12 yards.</p>
<p>The Italian side tried to respond but found themselves caught on the counter, allowing Joao Cancelo to double Barcelona’s lead.</p>
<p>Napoli managed to pull one back through Amir Rrahmani’s goal, but they squandered a chance to equalize when Marc-Andre ter Stegen denied Giovanni Di Lorenzo’s header with a fine save.</p>

<p>Napoli continued to push for an equalizer, with Kvicha Kvaratskhelia and Matteo Politano coming close, but their efforts were in vain.</p>
<p>Barcelona sealed the win late in the game through Robert Lewandowski’s goal.</p>
<p>Despite late efforts from Napoli, including a shot that hit the crossbar from Mathias Olivera, they were unable to find the back of the net again.</p>
