Napoli rallied to secure a 1-1 draw against visiting Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 matchup on Wednesday. Victor Osimhen, the Nigerian forward, found the net for Napoli, leveling the score after a lackluster first half. Robert Lewandowski broke the deadlock for Barcelona in the 60th minute, but Osimhen’s superb goal 15 minutes later restored parity. Both teams, former champions of Spain and Italy respectively, struggled throughout the match. The result sets up an intriguing second leg in Spain on March 12, with the tie finely balanced.
