Launching Antara, Napoli had threatened first with Eljif Elmas' volley, but Granada caused a lot of problems on the right side with Kenedy and Dimitri Foulquier several times infiltrating the penalty box.
After a series of corner kicks, the hosts took the lead when Kenedy curled in to a Herrera header for a goal.
The 1-0 lead lasted only two minutes. From a counter-attack scheme, Darwin Machis offered a pass to Kenedy who converted it into a goal with an accurate kick.
Lorenzo Insigne looked out of shape, while Osimhen wasted a good chance when he chose to force a shot rather than pass to his team-mates.

Napoli's game improved slightly with Piotr Zielinski's entry in the second half. The Poland international fired a shot high, and Osimhen failed to receive a Fabian Ruiz ball.
The Partenopei took the initiative to play, but their communication was lacking, such as when Amir Rrahmani failed to maximize the free-kick ball instead of passing to Osimhen.
Osimhen's volley from a free kick was overcome by goalkeeper Rui Silva.
Despite dominating possession, Napoli had the chance to concede the third when Alex Meret tipped off Angel Herrera's shot.
