Fiorentina have continued their recovery from a difficult start to the season, claiming points in consecutive Serie A matches following the change in head coach. The Viola held Napoli to a 1-1 draw at home in an entertaining Italian top-flight encounter.

Billy Gilmour put the visitors ahead in the 23rd minute with a superb first-time finish from a corner, giving Napoli the early advantage.

Fiorentina responded shortly after the break, with Jimenez restoring parity in somewhat fortunate circumstances. His effort took a deflection off Ndour, sending the ball into the bottom-left corner and leaving the goalkeeper with no chance.
