FLORENCE (Reuters) – Napoli trailed behind on the scorecards, but recovered and claimed a 2-1 victory over Fiorentina in the Italian league this Sunday, guaranteeing themselves the only team still 100% in Europe’s top five leagues.
Napoli started slowly and ended up punished at 28, when Lucas Martinez Quarta took advantage of the free time to score and give Fiorentina the well-deserved advantage on the scoreboard.
The opening goal served as a wake-up call for Napoli, and Hirving Lozano equalized 10 minutes later, taking advantage of a rebound by Fiorentina goalkeeper Bartlomiej Dragowski, who had saved Lorenzo Insigne’s penalty kick.
Victor Osimhen almost put Napoli ahead before the break with a spectacular shot. But the visitors didn’t have to wait much longer to complete the comeback, with Amir Rrahmani scoring after 5 minutes of the final stage.
Napoli had more chances to make the victory more comfortable, but guaranteed the result to reach their seventh victory in seven games and remain at the top of the table, four points ahead of Inter Milan, second in the lead.
Fiorentina remain in fifth place after their third defeat of the season.
