Napoli had the better of the first half but couldn’t make their chances count.

Victor Osimhen had the opportunity to equalise but was unable to capitalise on Wojciech Szczesny’s poor kick.

The Nigerian who is in the running for the African Footballer of The Year award scored a goal that was ruled out for offside in the second half.

The win moves Juventus one point clear of Inter Milan at the top of the Serie A table.

Napoli, meanwhile, remain fifth.
