Napoli Beat Lazio 2-0 as Late Brawl Brings Three Red Cards

The result lifts Antonio Conte's depleted side to second in Serie A, one point behind Milan.

Overview

Matteo Politano created both goals, crossing for Leonardo Spinazzola and delivering a free kick for Amir Rrahmani in the first half.
Lazio’s Tijjani Noslin was sent off for two bookings before Adam Marušić and Napoli’s Pasquale Mazzocchi were dismissed after a touchline scuffle that Conte tried to break up.
David Neres left in the 70th minute with an apparent ankle problem.
Napoli were without several regulars, including Romelu Lukaku, Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa, Kevin De Bruyne and Billy Gilmour.
Lazio’s options were reduced by injuries, Africa Cup of Nations call-ups and the €30 million sale of Taty Castellanos to West Ham, with Inter set to host Napoli next weekend.
