Milan v.s. Napoli in Italian domestic action.

First, the background: AC Milan sit at the top of the Italian table with two points over second place Inter Milan and three over Napoli. If Napoli was to win the match, they would leapfrog Inter Milan and be just behind AC Milan on goal difference while a victory for AC Milan would give them a five point lead over Inter and six over the Naples side in third. Well, Napoli were not enough for the powerful Milan side. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Kevin-Prince Boateng, and Alexandre Pato each slotted home on the way to a 3-0 victory for AC Milan at home. Despite the fact that all the goals came from the second half, it was a very good game and means that AC Milan has some leverage over their cross-town rivals Inter. Napoli on the other hand will be disappointed with the result as they now have to overtake both AC and Inter Milan with all sides having played 27 games. Best of luck to all!
