Napoli Fight Back to Draw 2-2 With Verona at Maradona

The result pauses Napoli's surge, leaving Conte to juggle injuries before a visit to Inter.

Overview

  • Verona led 2-0 at half-time through Frese and an Orban penalty awarded for a Buongiorno handball.
  • Napoli leveled after the break with goals from Scott McTominay on 54 minutes and Giovanni Di Lorenzo on 82.
  • Rasmus Hojlund had an apparent equalizer ruled out for a hand touch, and Verona's Giovane missed a late chance to win it.
  • Napoli's four-match league winning run ends as they remain third on 38 points, while Verona move off the bottom to 13.
  • Neres missed out with a left-ankle sprain, Lukaku is sidelined for January, Hojlund leads the line as reports suggest Lucca is close to Benfica, and rotation looms in a congested stretch before San Siro.
