Duros golpes, COVID y hasta una rara tarjeta roja. Los titulares alrededor de Hirving Lozano no venían siendo muy positivos en el último tiempo. Sin embargo, el Chucky algo de la mala racha pudo sacudirse anotando los dos goles con que el Napoli venció al Bologna.
La doppietta de Lozano además llegó justo en un momento en que la crítica en su contraba se estaba volviendo despiadada.

Los argumentos para proponer un purificador sahumerio o un exorcismo que espante los malos espíritus alrededor de Hirving Lozano comienzan a apilarse luego de que el Napoli informara que el jugador diera positivo a una prueba de Covid-19.
