Napoli took advantage of AC Milan's misstep against Sassuolo (1-3), a few hours earlier this Sunday, to take the lead in Serie A solo.

Thanks to a brace from Dries Mertens and goals from Piotr Zielinski and Fabian Ruiz, Napoli crushed Lazio Rome (4-0) and ahead of the Rossoneri by three points.

Yet another way to pay tribute to Diego Maradona, who died a year earlier at the age of 60.

After the inauguration of a first statue of the Argentine idol in front of the old San Paolo stadium on Thursday, a second was presented before the meeting within the Neapolitan enclosure.

Against Lazio, the players still wore a jersey bearing the effigy of Pibe de Oro, which set Italy's third city on fire between 1984 and 1991.
