SSC Napoli vs AC Milan

A late substitute settled things at the Maradona. Napoli beat AC Milan 1-0 as Matteo Politano came off the bench in the 74th minute and needed just five to find the net and seal three crucial points. Milan controlled the first half — Pavlovic headed wide from a free-kick and Fofana drew an early save. Napoli improved after the interval, with Maignan keeping out Giovane on 50 minutes. The winner arrived on 79: a cross from Olivera was poorly cleared by De Winter, and Politano volleyed home. Buongiorno was booked in the first half, while Politano was cautioned shortly after scoring — no red cards or penalties on the night. The win moves Napoli to second with 65 points, two clear of Milan. Napoli remain unbeaten at home, while Milan face questions over Allegri's sluggish second-half reaction. The gap to leaders Inter is seven points.
