Result: Napoli 4-2 Lecce

Napoli have moved one place into fifth in the Serie A table with a 4-2 win at home to Lecce.

Three first-half goals for the home side effectively put the match out of reach for the visitors as Ezequiel Lavezzi, Edinson Cavani and Blerim Dzemaili all struck inside the first 42 minutes.

Luis Fruto pulled a goal back 10 minutes after the break, but Cavani's second eight minutes from time snuffed out any hopes of a Lecce comeback.

The away side found the net deep into injury time thanks to Daniele Corvia, but it was too little too late.
