"After Scott McTominay's header put the visitors ahead just after the half-hour mark, the Dutch side roared back in style, scoring six times over the following hour to claim a historic win. Ismael Saibari thought he had given PSV the lead 18 minutes in but saw his effort ruled out for offside before Napoli capitalised on their hosts' profligacy as McTominay broke the deadlock, nodding home in space off Leonardo Spinazzola's pinpoint cross."
"Napoli then saw a frustrating evening slip completely out of control as Lorenzo Lucca was shown a straight red card 76 minutes in for abusive language and dissent, opening the doors for PSV to run riot. And the hosts duly obliged as Man added a fourth with a thumping 20-yard-strike before McTominay pulled one back for Napoli with a late consolation header."
"However, substitutes Ricardo Pepi and Couhaib Driouech combined brilliantly in the closing stages - Pepi tapping in from Driouech's pass before returning the favour in stoppage time - to cap off a remarkable six-goal display. PSV move up to 11th in the table, level on four points with Tottenham, while Napoli suffer their second defeat, placing them 22nd. What a night.
