San Francisco Frontiers - Hojlund fires Napoli past Genoa and into Serie A lead

Fresh from his midweek double against Sporting Lisbon, Hojlund was on hand to score on the rebound with 15 minutes remaining as Napoli came from behind to claim three points in Naples.

The 22-year-old pounced after Andre-Frank Anguissa's powerful shot was pushed out by Genoa goalkeeper Nicola Leali, taking his all-competitions tally to four goals since moving to Napoli from Manchester United.

But Antonio Conte's team had to do it the hard way, with Anguissa bundling in the leveller in the 57th minute after teenager Jeff Ekhator had given Genoa the half-time lead with just his second Serie A goal.

Napoli have 15 points from their six league matches and lead Roma, 2-1 winners at Fiorentina, on goal difference.

They will stay on top unless AC Milan win at Juventus in Sunday's headline clash in Turin, another title test for Massimiliano Allegri's team, who started the weekend in first place after winning a thrilling match with Napoli last weekend.

Matias Soule and Bryan Cristante struck in the first half in Florence as Roma claimed a third straight win in Italy's top flight, which came after going behind to a Moise Kean rocket in the 14th minute.

Kean almost added to his first goal of the season when he smashed another powerful effort off the post in the 38th minute, not long after Cristante had headed Roma into the lead.

Roberto Piccoli was also unlucky not to level with a volley, which rattled the crossbar in the 74th minute, but Fiorentina remain winless on three points and one place above the relegation zone.
