Instead, he created at least one chance for the 17th appearances in a row, totaling 48 key passes in that span, and maintained his season-long streak of tilts with multiple crosses and is averaging 7.2 deliveries (2.9 accurate) per fixture.

Brooke Norton-Cuffy - Struggles to get going in Napoli tilt Norton-Cuffy had one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Napoli.

Furthermore, he has swung in multiple deliveries in the last four games, racking up 12 crosses (one accurate), adding two key passes and two corners.

Lorenzo Colombo - Finds the net versus Napoli Colombo scored one goal to go with three shots (one on target) and two tackles (one won) in Saturday's 3-2 defeat versus Napoli.

He guessed right on a last-second penalty kick but couldn't keep it off the line. He has made six saves and surrendered eight goals since moving to Serie A. Genoa will face Cremonese away next Sunday in the next round.

The attacker has now scored twice and assisted once over 17 Serie A matches (three starts) in the current campaign. He's not a safe starter but may now put some pressure on Vitinha, Jeff Ekhator and Lorenzo Colombo in the race for attacking spots.
