Napoli held their advantage into the half-time break and were helped by a red card to Yuto Nagatomo, who received his second yellow card in the 45th minute.

Higuain doubled his, and Napoli's, tally, after the hour mark.

Inter hit back almost immediately through Adem Ljajic to make it 2-1.

Try as they might, the visitors couldn't level the scores despite striking the woodwork twice in the last minute of stoppage time.
