About this episode
THE FALL OF NAPOLI: It seems like only yesterday that the streets of Naples were ringing out with song and fireworks following the club's first Scudetto in 33 years. Less than a year later, the team sits 7th in the table and is going on their fourth manager in the last 12 months. Rog and New York Times Chief Soccer Correspondent Rory Smith break down how exactly the team fell so fast, what bombastic owner Aurelio De Laurentiis has to do with it, and what the Neapolitans can do to try to save their season. Then, Rog and Rory skip to FC Porto, where drama surrounding an upcoming team presidential election is engulfing the club. This is a story ripped from a soap opera: arrests, fan violence, political infighting, and the return of a departed club legend. Find out all of the details...and what Andre Villas-Boas has to do with all of it....on the latest European Nights.
