Fiorentina extends Napoli: Juve close to the Scudetto

Fiorentina extends Napoli: Juve close to the Scudetto

With three goals from Cholito Simeone, Pioli's Fiorentina humiliates Napoli and by winning 3-0 shuffles the cards both in the fight for the Scudetto and in the fight for the Europa League. It's the umpteenth twist of an exciting championship

But the decisive episode took place in the first minutes of the Franchi match when Koulibaly, the hero of the Neapolitan victory against Juve, committed a foul on Simeone who was thrown on goal and was immediately sent off.

Napoli felt the pinch and had to play outnumbered for 80 minutes in front of a bubbly Fiorentina who literally dominated the field.

At this point Napoli slip back to within four points of leaders Juve as Fiorentina are back in the game for a place in the Europa League
