Napoli took full advantage, turning the game around in under 10 minutes with a Kalidou Koulibaly tap-in from a corner, Jose Callejon strike at the end of a well-worked team move and truly ridiculous Mertens lob from a tight angle.

Lazio even went down to 10 men as Dusan Basta joined the injury list, so in stoppages Jorginho converted a penalty.

Napoli maintain their perfect start in Serie A and are joint top of the table with Juventus.
