Napoli joined AC Milan at the top of Serie A on Sunday after winning 1-0 at title rivals Roma, as Inter Milan kept pace with the leading pair by beating Pisa 2-0.

David Neres stroked home the only goal of a feisty game in the 36th minute at the Stadio Olimpico, ending a blistering counterattack with a calm finish which put Napoli on 28 points.
Napoli are behind Milan on goal difference and just one point ahead of both Roma and Inter Milan in a tight Scudetto battle, in which Antonio Conte's team will host Juventus in a week's time.
"To come to Rome and play with authority and personality like we did wasn't easy because Roma came into the game on the back on some positive results," said Conte to DAZN.
"We've sent a message to ourselves, that if we want it we can have it."
