Kevin De Bruyne Scores on Stunning Serie A Debut as Napoli Begin Title Defense with Win

With a commanding 2-0 victory over Sassuolo to start the 2025–26 Serie A season, Napoli was led by a magnificent first goal from Kevin De Bruyne.

The Belgian midfielder wasted no time making an impact, scoring a beautifully curled free kick in the 57th minute that floated over everyone and struck the far bottom corner of the net.

Scott McTominay gave Napoli the lead in the 17th minute with a powerful header from a Matteo Politano cross. Despite Sassuolo’s efforts, Napoli controlled the match, hitting the woodwork twice and maintaining strong pressure throughout. De Bruyne’s goal sealed the win and set the tone for the defending champions’ title defense.

De Bruyne’s arrival adds a new creative spark to Napoli’s team as they look to retain the Scudetto. His free kick showcased his technical brilliance and immediately won over the Napoli faithful. With Romelu Lukaku sidelined by injury, De Bruyne’s offensive contribution is even more crucial.

Napoli’s perfect start under coach Antonio Conte reinforces their status as Serie A favorites. Fans can expect an exciting season ahead with De Bruyne playing a key role.
