Napoli 1-0 Fiorentina: Highlights

Pre-match

Maurizio Sarri set out his expected XI. Paulo Sousa kept new signing Marco Sportiello on the bench and handed a surprise start to Sebastian Cristoforo.

First half

Pepe Reina made a wonder-save on a Davide Astori header from a corner and Ciprian Tatarusanu punched a Lorenzo Insigne free kick onto the bar, but those were probably the best chances.

Second half

Nenad Tomovic lost the ball and let Marek Hamsik motor down the right and cross; Tomovic lost Jose Cajellon and the Spaniard headed home for the goal in the 71st minute.

A late red card for Elseid Hysaj handed Fiorentina some hope, but they never really looked like breaking through, and the match ended in shambles as Doveri completely lost control.
