Lowest Genoa rating: Bijlow – Has been decent since his arrival at the club but had one of his poorer performances tonight. Could have done better for the first goal, did not look convincing.

Coach: Daniele De Rossi – 6.5 – Credit has to go to the Genoa coach who has really turned things around since his appointment. Was unlucky to be denied a point after setting up his team well to counter the champions.

Napoli: Meret 5.5; Rrahmani 7, Buongiorno 4.5 (Beukema 6), Juan Jesus 4.5; Gutierrez 5.5, Lobotka 6.5, McTominay 7.5 (Giovane 5.5), Spinazzola 6; Vergara 6.5, Elmas 6.5; Hojlund 7.5

Best Napoli player: Scott McTominay – Could have been Hojlund for his brace but, before he came off injured, the Scottish midfielder really demonstrated his value once more, controlling the midfield and scoring a delightful goal to give Napoli the lead before half-time.

Coach: Antonio Conte 6.5 – Still working with a barebones squad, McTominay the latest of a growing infirmary, but managed to avoid a potential banana skin thanks to a bit of good fortune on the day.
