In the pursuit of leading Milan, Inter and Napoli worked very hard today to take three points, in games that on paper were supposed to be easier.
The Narazuri did it away against Cagliari, who went down to half with a 0: 1 advantage from a goal by Ricardo Sotil.
Antonio Conte's team had a hard time getting back into the game, but in the last 15 minutes they did.
Goals from Niccolò Barla (77), Danilo D'Ambrosio (84) and Romulo Lukaku deep in extra time completed a makeover and an important 1: 3 victory.
At Napoli the troubles were at home, at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, where they hosted Sampdoria, who led 0-1 at half-time from a Jacob Yanko goal.
Gennaro Gattuso's team recovered in the 53rd minute with an equalizer from Hirving Lucano and Andrea Patania turned the score around in the 68th minute.
1: 2 to Napoli at the end.
Rome shelled Bologna's net away, winning 1: 5.
All the goals were scored in the first half.
Edin Dzeko, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Jordan Verto, Henrik McTeirian and an own goal completed the top five.
