Undefeated for 6 matches in all competitions, Napoli hoped to confirm their improvement with the reception of Torino at the opening of the 28th day of Serie A. Dominators, the Neapolitans have long come up against the vigilance of the opposing potter, Milinkovic-Savic. It was finally upon returning from the locker room that Calzona’s men found the fault through Kvaratskhelia (1-0, 61st).

However, Torino’s reaction was not long in coming as Sanabria equalized three minutes later with a sublime acrobatic gesture (1-1, 64th). Despite pushing to the end, the reigning Italian champion was only able to achieve a draw against an opportunistic Turin team. If this result hardly enchants them a few days before meeting FC Barcelona in the Champions League, the Neapolitans remain stuck in 7th place, 7 points from 4th place occupied by Bologna.
