ESPN’s timeline shows Napoli’s Frank Anguissa also on the scoresheet and late swings in momentum across the second half, with team stats there giving Napoli a higher expected-goals figure for the game.

That draw followed earlier seasons of tight meetings between the sides; Reuters recalled a February 2025 draw at the Stadio Olimpico where Napoli missed the chance to extend their lead at the top of Serie A, underscoring how consequential their fixtures can be for the title race.

For readers tracking standings and form, the ESPN match page also lists the teams’ early-season records and key match statistics such as possession and shots on target, useful context for evaluating how the result might affect each side’s momentum.
