FULL-TIME: NAPOLI 2-1 ROMA
The title moves even closer! What a game! What a win! Roma threw the kitchen sink at them in injury time, and they arguably deserved a point for their performance after the break, but Napoli found a way - like champions do. Superb drama. Brililant match.

GOAL! NAPOLI 2-1 ROMA (Simeone)
Out of nothing, Napoli are back in front! A third goal of the season for Simeone, who with four minutes to go brilliantly curls into the top corner from just inside the area!

CAN NAPOLI FIND A WINNER?
They've certainly not been the better team in this half, and you feel without Osimhen they lack a bit of bite

GOAL! NAPOLI 1-1 ROMA (El Shaarawy).
It has been coming! El Shaarawy is on hand at the back post to prod home a stunning right-wing cross. It was put on a plate for him by Zalewski
TROUBLE FOR TAMMY
The striker looks like he's pulled a hamstring and his evening his over. He's replaced by Andrea Belotti
EL SHAARAWY BOOKED
The substitute picks up a yellow card for what can only be described as a 'hack' on Osimhen

OSIMHEN CAN'T CLIMB HIGH ENOUGH
Lozano whips in a cross from the right, and Osimhen meets it, only to head well over the bar
PATRICIO TO THE RESCUE!
Oh it should be game over! Napoli break from a Roma corner and it's suddenly three on two. Lozano could pass - should pass - but goes alone and sees his goal bound shot tipped over
TERRIFIC MERET SAVE
That's a much better effort from Cristante, a flicked header at the near post, but Meret dives full stretch to deny with his right palm
