The Napoli-2 is enough to solve the practice without employing too many Empoli and to re-launch the pursuit of Juventus. The Blues halved the disadvantage from the Italian champions, taking three points away, waiting for tomorrow's match that the Bianconeri will have to play with Cagliari. Ancelotti once again uses a pushed turnover.

Andreazzoli's team also tries from the side bands, in particular on the left side of his attack, thanks to the initiative of Antonelli. But the Napoli check calmly and as soon as it can start again in speed to put in difficulty the rear guard of the Tuscans. In the final of the first portion of the game Ancelotti's team is doubled with a conclusion by Mertens, very similar to the previous one of Insigne and at that point it seems that the Empoli's hopes to go out with some point in the pocket from the San Paolo fade away consistent way.

Instead the men of Andreazzoli reopen the race for a few minutes thanks to a winning idea of ​​Caputo beating Karnezis. The hope of straightening the race, however, does not last long. After 7 more 'Martens with a spell, sends a lob to bag behind Prrovedel. Empoli does not give up just at this stage of the race expresses its best.
