ROME: Napoli missed the chance to move into the Champions League qualifying positions following a 2-2 draw against Udinese in Serie A. Udinese led 2-0 through goals from Giampiero Pinzi and Antonio Di Natale. However, after Diego Fabbrini was sent off, Edinson Cavani snatched a point with a brace, whilst also missing a penalty. “We deserved to win, over the 90 minutes we played better,” said Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri. “Even when it was 11 against 11 we played better than Udinese.” Elsewhere, Inter Milan failed to win for the eighth time in nine league games following a goal-less draw at home to Atalanta.
