FULL-TIME: INTER 3-2 NAPOLI

Napoli are desperately trying to exploit any spaces inside the Inter half, but Chivu's men are then awarded a foul. They are just moments away from the finishing line.

Assist

A crucial prodded pass – or attempted shot – from Akanji during that goalmouth scramble helped set up Martinez to score.

Goal 3-2

GOOOOALLLL!!!!!!!!!!! INTER HAVE THE WINNER! A cross from Jones causes chaos in the Napoli penalty area, with Lucca failing to clear the ball away. Akanji manages to poke it into the path of Martinez, and he makes no mistake from point-blank range. Inter 3-2 Napoli.

Another opportunity as Barella stings the palms of Meret with a shot from outside the area. You get the feeling that there is still time for a winner from either side as we head into injury time.

NOW NAPOLI HAVE CHANCES! On the counter-attack, Neres is picked out inside the area but fires an effort well wide of goal. Moments later, Anguissa is just a foot away from getting on the end of a cross from yards out, but he can't quite make the necessary contact! It's been an incredible end to this game!

WHAT A CHANCE TO WIN IT! Napoli are caught in their own half as a result of the Inter press, with Calhanoglu feeding Thuram inside the area, but he blazes his shot wide of the mark! He has been a constant threat since coming on, but he may have spurned the golden opportunity.

86'

•

comment

Any Inter pressure is eased as Thuram is penalised for a foul on Anguissa. Napoli look to have settled for the point now, as they attempt to slow play down on any given occasion. De Bruyne has been largely anonymous since coming on, with the veteran having been starved of possession at times.

84'

comment

Space is beginning to open up for both sides as the game becomes increasingly stretched. Barella looks to force the issue with another cross, but it's overhit and Napoli can see it out for a goal-kick.

82'

Assist

The substitutes combined as Augusto found Thuram with a pinpoint cross. It's nothing less than Inter deserve after how they have responded to going behind by two goals.

Goal 2-2

EQUALISER FOR INTER! What a header! Augusto delivers the cross from the left and Thuram gets across Badiashile before powering a header past Meret in the Napoli goal. We now have a grandstand finish. Inter 2-2 Napoli.

It's a double change from the visitors as Badiashile comes on for Santos.

Another Inter change, and it's an attacking one – Bonny comes on for Bastoni.

More Inter pressure as Jones and Barella combine in midfield. The ball then reaches Diouf, who picks out Thuram on the overlap. The angle is tight but the France international still decides to flash an effort at goal, but he can only find the side-netting. A poor decision from the experienced forward.

77'

Yellow Card

Marin is booked for a late lunge on Martinez. He can have no complaints about that one.

comment

Both sides are throwing everything they have at this match as they attempt to get a result. Martinez sees another chance go to waste for Inter, while at the other end, Santos sees a shot blocked.

highlight

WHAT A CHANCE! A Diouf cross from the right is met by Thuram from just yards out, but the contact is poor, and he can only direct his header towards the inside of the post! Jones followed in, but couldn't reach it in time to help it over the line. Napoli are hanging on by a thread!

Substitution

Hojlund's goal is still the difference between the two sides, and he now comes off for Lucca.

Substitution

Calhanoglu, who has scored in both of Inter's matches so far, is on for the final part of the match, replacing Zielinski.

comment

Time for another cooling break, and Napoli will be grateful at the timing of that stoppage. They have been under the cosh over the last 10 minutes, and they will look to regroup ahead of the final part of this encounter. They will have to dig deep if they are to hang on for the victory.

68'

C

Yellow Card

Martinez is booked for dissent due to complaining to the referee as he felt he was fouled by Rrahmani. Frustration amongst the Inter players as they desperately search for an equaliser.

comment

Inter continue to threaten, as Spinazzola takes too long on the ball and is dispossessed deep inside his own penalty area, but Diouf squanders the opportunity with a wild effort at goal, as he blazes over the crossbar.

64'

comment

It's all Inter, with plenty of time remaning in this second half. However, any momentum is stalled as Diouf overhits a cross from the right and the pressure on Napoli's goal is eased. Jones has made a lively introducton from the bench, with the summer signing from Liverpool enjoying plenty of the ball.

We're just approaching the hour mark, and the momentum is with Inter as they search for the equaliser. If the result remains the same, Napoli extend their unbeaten run against their current opponents to six matches, but there's still a long way to go in this one.

Dimarco bags the assist after his intelligent pass.

Goal 1-2

Inter pull a goal back! A cross from Barella is kept alive by Dimarco, and he manages to find Martinez at point-blank range, who finishes off easily. Inter really needed that after their poor start to the second half. Inter 1-2 Napoli!

Assist

A simple pass from Di Lorenzo sees him grab the assist, but the goal is all about the brilliance of Hojlund.

Goal 0-2

NAPOLI DOUBLE THEIR LEAD! Santos goes close just a few seconds earlier. The ball eventually finds Hojlund from just outside the edge of the area, and he finds the bottom corner with a fantastic effort. Inter 0-2 Napoli.

Goal 0-1

DEADLOCK BROKEN! THE VISITORS LEAD! Inter are caught up when trying to play out from the back, leading to Martinez saving from Santos. The ball comes out to Politano, and despite having an effort blocked, he finds the net with his second attempt at goal! Inter 0-1 Napoli.

half_time summary

It's goalless between Inter and Napoli at the break, but both teams have had opportunities when it comes to breaking the deadlock. Lautaro Martinez has been denied by Meret on a couple of occasions, while Dimarco struck the woodwork with a free-kick right on the stroke of half-time. The visitors have also gone close at times, with Anguissa having two efforts kept out by Josep Martinez. Hojlund also had a fantastic chance but he misfired from yards out. In terms of xG, Inter have generated 0.48, while Napoli have created 0.38.

CROSSBAR! Diouf wins a free-kick from 20 yards out as his shirt is pulled by Vergara. Dimarco strikes the effort at goal, but it thunders against the bar and bounces out!

highlight

Now Inter have a chance on the stroke of half-time! A long ball finds Dimarco, and Martinez is able to latch onto it from an acute angle. He gets a shot off, but Meret is positioned at his front post to make the save, conceding the corner in the process. Napoli then deal with the subsequent set-piece.

GOOD CHANCE! Poor from Hojlund - a Napoli corner leads to a header being glanced on into the path of the Dane. He controls the ball but fails to generate the necessary contact, and Martinez is down to make the stop.

There will be four minutes of added time for the first half.

comment

More Napoli possession towards the end of the half, but little comes of it. Bastoni is able to return to action. Neither side looks particularly dangerous offensively as of right now, but that could change very quickly. Allegri is likely to be the happier of the two managers, but Inter will still remain confident of eventually finding the breakthrough.

comment

Bastoni is down holding his face after beng struck by a flailing arm from Hojlund. He is tended to by the Inter staff, and there will be another break in play.

39'

comment

It's still goalless, with Inter and Napoli having drawn each of their last three Serie A meetings at the Meazza and they have never recorded four consecutive draws at the Nerazzurri's home in the history of the top-flight. Inter are unbeaten in their last nine home games against Napoli in the competition – Napoli's last win in Milan was on 30 April 2017, a 1-0 victory with a goal from Callejon.

36'

comment

Bisseck is involved in a rare attack for the hosts as a lovely piece of skill sees him free himself from a couple of challenges. He cuts onto his left foot inside the area, but the effort is an ugly one and flies well wide of the target.

35'

Yellow Card

Vergara is booked for cynically bringing down Zielinski. Inter still had the advantage, but the referee decided to stop play and penalise the Napoli player.

33'

comment

Napoli have been much improved since the cooling break. They have limited Inter to little in terms of possession, and have gained control of the match overall. Anguissa remains a big threat when they go forward, with the midfielder making a number of intelligent runs when going forward. They now win a corner as Martinez flaps at a cross, but Inter are able to defend it comfortably.

30'

comment

Inter are looking to win their first three Serie A matches of the season, a feat they last achieved in the 2023-24 campaign; the Nerazzurri could also score at least six goals in their first three matchdays for the eighth consecutive year, having last failed to do so in 2018-19 (five goals).

28'

highlight

Another Napoli chance! It comes down the right side, with Anguissa again finding space inside the penalty area to take aim, but Martinez is able to make the save. Inter then deal with the resulting set-piece.

26'

comment

There's a stoppage in play, which allows both sides to receive instructions from the touchline. Inter have been superior, but Napoli will remain encouraged by how they have performed defensively, and they have also created a few chances when they have gone forward.

24'

comment

Another opportunity for Inter as Dimarco's cross from the left is glanced on by Esposito at the front post, but he can't quite find the target. The forward has caused problems in the six-yard box, but he is yet to trouble Meret in the Napoli goal.

22'

•

comment

Napoli enjoy a rare spell of possession as Lobotka finds Alisson on the left. He cuts inside and fires a low shot at goal, but Martinez is down to make the save. Hojlund has not been able to make the desired impact, but the visitors have found some joy on the flanks when they have gone forward.

20'

comment

After a run of four consecutive goalless matches between 2016 and 2018, Inter have scored in all of their last 16 Serie A meetings against Napoli; no team has ever reached 17 consecutive matches scoring against the Partenopei in the top-flight (Juventus also had 16 between 1986 and 1993, and Bologna between 1935 and 1942).

18'

comment

Napoli are under all sorts of pressure here, as Inter are relentless in the press when there's a changeover in possession. Martinez has the opportunity to pull the trigger inside the area, but takes too long, and the opportunity is lost.

16'

•

comment

It's all Inter at the moment, with a number of players interchanging and looking to exploit any spaces in the Napoli defence. However, a move involving Bisseck breaks down after a wayward pass, with the ball trickling out for a goal-kick. Allegri already has his side well-drilled when it comes to defending their six-yard box.

14'

comment

Napoli have lost 51 away Serie A matches against Inter, more than against any other side; the Nerazzurri are also the opponent against whom Napoli have conceded the most away goals in the top-flight (148).

12'

comment

Another chance for Inter as Diouf cuts inside and whips a cross into the area for Esposito, but there's a lack of direction on the header and Meret is positioned well to claim. Diouf has been very bright so far.

10'

•

comment

There's a nice open feel to the game so far, with both sides looking to get forward whenever the opportunty presents itself. There's space to exploit at both ends, and neither side is sitting back and allowing the other to dominate. These two sides have been the top two in Italy over the last couple of seasons.

7'

highlight

Now it's Napoli's turn to test Inter! Santos digs out a cross from the left and Anguissa is able to side-foot an effort at goal from yards out, but Martinez is down to make a strong save. Politano is also kept out on the rebound. That's a warning sign for Inter – they've been largely dominant in the opening exchanges, but Napoli do carry a threat when they go forward.

5'

•

comment

Napoli's recent record against Inter is encouraging, as they have not lost in their last five matches. However, they have only produced the one victory with the other four ending up as draws. They are under the cosh early on, with their opponents dominating the ball and looking to create chances.

There's an early opportunity for the league champions! A Bastoni cross falls into the path of Martinez, and he tees up Diouf to strike an effort at goal from just outside the area. Meret dives to his right and manages to keep it out. Positive signs for Chivu's men during the opening few minutes.

comment

Napoli's start to the season has not been quite as convincing in comparison. They did begin their campaign with a win after beating Genoa 2-0, but they then suffered a surprising 2-1 defeat to Como at home. This will be Massimiliano Allegri's first match back at the San Siro since he was sacked as AC Milan boss at the end of last season.

•

comment

Cristian Chivu's men have enjoyed a flawless start to their Scudetto defense, taking a maximum of six points from their opening two games. They kicked off with a resounding 4-1 victory over Monza before securing a 1-0 win away at Cagliari last time out. They head into this clash carrying a 14-match unbeaten streak stretching back to last season, across all competitive competitions.
