Venezia manager Davide Nicola has praised Akor Adams following the striker’s decisive contribution to his side’s impressive 1-0 victory over Napoli at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo on Saturday.
Adams scored the winning goal four minutes into the second half, capitalising on a defensive error by Napoli’s Benoît Badiashile before firing the ball into the net to secure all three points for Venezia.
The result marked Venezia’s second victory in Serie A this season, while Napoli suffered their third defeat of the campaign.
