NAPLES: Napoli's Scott McTominay scored after 25 seconds and Romelu Lukaku and David Neres were also on target as they beat visitors Como 3-1 in Serie A on Friday to extend their lead at the top of the league table.
Antonio Conte's Napoli top the table with 16 points after seven matches, four ahead of Juventus, who host Cagliari tomorrow.
McTominay broke the deadlock seconds into the match when he fired home from inside the box yet Como equalised through Gabriel Strefezza's low, long-range strike that sailed through a crowded box into the bottom left corner two minutes before the break.
Lukaku restored the hosts' lead from the penalty spot eight minutes into the second half after Sergi Roberto brought down Mathias Olivera.
Neres scored Napoli's third in the 86th minute when he latched on to a through ball and converted a one-on-one chance to dash the visitors' hopes of earning a draw. - REUTERS
