Match Report

Napoli made light work of the trip to Sardinia as Scott McTominay struck inside two minutes to seal a 1-0 victory over Cagliari at the Unipol Domus on Friday night. The Scotland international needed barely 60 seconds to open the scoring and set the tone for a comfortable away win. A short corner routine from Matteo Politano saw the ball pinball around the box before falling kindly for McTominay, who tapped home from close range. Cagliari rarely threatened in response, though Sebastiano Esposito went close with a sharp effort across goal from a tight angle. The result stretches Napoli's winning run to four straight Serie A games and lifts them into second place on 62 points, leapfrogging AC Milan. For Cagliari, stuck in 15th and now winless in seven, the relegation scrap is only getting tighter.
