Revealed the reason for Anguissa’s knockout against Como, Napoli was frozen by the dynamics of the player’s injury
In the last few hours the dynamics of the injury suffered by Frank Zambo Anguissa in the match against Como has come out. Sunday’s match brought with it a lot of controversy, galvanized by the final result that saw the Azzurri come out defeated. Antonio Conte can no longer find the fluidity and grit that emerged and distinguished in his first months at the Neapolitan court.
Injuries are definitely a factor, but they should not be an excuse. The Azzurri must now roll up their sleeves for the tour de force that awaits them starting on Saturday, when Inter, in great physical and mental shape, will land at the ‘Maradona’. Anguissa himself, however, will not take part in the direct clash due to injury.

Anguissa the match against Como was not even supposed to play it, because he was on the list of cautions. Conte did not want to risk it and, therefore, chose Billing from the 1′ for the first time. The match of the midfielder arrived in the winter market session, however, lasted only an hour, when then the Cameroonian entered.

La Gazzetta dello Sport tried to make a reconstruction of the injury suffered by Anguissa. The player, not being used to taking over in the course of the game, failed to warm up sufficiently and the muscle was affected.
This is not the first problem with the soleus muscle in the Naples home, which has already been struggling with this type of injury for quite some time.
Anguissa salta diverse gare, pronto Billing
Not even time to smile about the recoveries of Spinazzola and Olivera, Napoli has to deal with Anguissa. Conte was already anticipating a return to the 4-3-3, with almost all of his starters available. The coach now has to make important choices for the upcoming matches.

But the lost lunch match against Como also brought positive news: Billing is ready to play. The player now must not waste the opportunity to be a starter for several matches.
Anguissa will surely miss Inter, Fiorentina and Venezia and is in high doubt for Milan. Switching to a three-man midfield would allow the class of ’96 to bring out his physicality to the fullest, but the final decision rests with the coach.
