What a world.

Napoli work it well, finding space for Mertens out on the right; his low cross isn't bad, but Szczesny is able to dive on it.
51'
Napoli keep possession, looking to pull Juve about. They need to score soon because they'll get done on the break at some point if they don't.

RED CARD PJANIC! WHAT IS HE DOING! Allan shovels an innocuous ball through midfield and Pjanic, already on a booking, intercepts with his hand! We have ourselves a ball game, and the crowd go absolutely wild!

Ancelotti isn't going to die wondering. He rescues Malcuit, bringing on Meretns; I guess Napoli are playing 3-4-2.

We go again....

This is just what happens. Napoli play well enough, don't score, then concede a red card and free-kick goal within seconds. Then hit the post then concede again. See you in 15.

Half-time: Napoli 0-2 Juventus
45+2'
Ouch! Koulibaly challenges Bernardeschi, treads on his toes, skids, and that's a lot of pain.
45+1'
Insigne is absolutely electric, and steams forward, the ball running lose when Cancelo comes across to challenge, and though Zielinski pursues it, Alex Sandro tidies up.
45'
Malcuit tries a couple of crosses but they're both headed clear. There'll be two added minutes.

We see shots of stony Napoli faces. Lovely stuff, football is the greatest.

Both, I'd say.

Napoli haven't lost at home since Roma beat them last March. They'll have to go some to avoid a kicking here, never mind preserve that run.

GOAL! Napoli 0-2 Juventus (Emre Can) Pjanic takes the corner short to Zielinski, collects the return, and under no pressure curls a cross into the middle; unmarked, Can heads firmly, then the ball catches Hysaj's shoulde, and goes where it was going anyway - past Meret. I suspect Juve might win tonight, and also go on to win the league.

Juve win a corner which Bernardechi clips to Pjanic on the edge of the box ... and he smokes a volley that Meret turns behind!

Since going a goal down, Napoli have played their best football of the match. I'm not sure what that says about Ospina and Milik.
