The reigning champion is level on points with Juventus and Fiorentina
Napoli dealt with it without difficulty Verona in the away match of the 9th round Italian Championship – 3:1.
The absence of two important players, Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa and Victor Osimhen, due to injury, did not prevent the reigning Italian champions from confidently securing three points.
Matteo Politano opened the scoring for the visiting team, and at the end of the half he also assisted Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Soon after the break, the Georgian winger scored a double. The Mastiffs only had enough for a prestige goal scored by Darko Lazovic.
Having scored 17 points, the Neapolitans caught up with Juventus and Fiorentina, but they will play their 9th round matches later. Two Milan clubs remain at the top of the table. Verona is 16th.
In the next round, Napoli will host Milan, but first will play in Berlin with Union in the Champions League. Verona will go to visit Juventus.
