On Sunday, Napoli reclaimed first place in Serie A with a 1-0 win over Torino, with Nigerian international Victor Osimhen scoring the only goal.

After coming back from a two-goal deficit to overcome Hellas Verona 3-2 at the San Siro on Saturday, AC Milan climbed to the top of the standings.

But Napoli regained the lead after Osimhen headed in the 81st-minute winner for his country, who had scored in a 2-0 win over the Central African Republic in World Cup qualification last week.

Inter Milan are on 17 points after losing ground to Lazio 3-1 on Saturday. Napoli have 24 points, two more than AC Milan.
