"Alisson Santos marked his Serie A debut for Napoli with a goal as his 82nd minute equaliser helped Antonio Conte's side to a 2-2 draw with top-four rivals Roma. Roma looked set for all three points when Donyell Malen scored his second of the match from the penalty spot, but Santos popped up late on to seal a share of the spoils."
"Roma took the lead in the seventh minute after Gianluca Mancini's ball down the line freed Bryan Zaragoza, with his centre flashed into the roof of the net by the in-form Malen. Stanislav Lobotka's volley soon after forced Mile Svilar into his first save of the game before Malen dragged a shot wide at the other end after racing past Amir Rrahmani."
"But Napoli hauled themselves level five minutes before half-time through Leonardo Spinazzola, whose shot deflected off Niccolo Pisilli and looped over Svilar on the stretch. Spinazzola almost doubled his and Napoli's tally two minutes into the second half, but his stinging left-footed shot from inside the penalty area was brilliantly thwarted by Svilar. However, Roma were awarded a penalty when Wesley was felled by Rrahmani, with Malen stepping up to squeeze his 71st-minute spot-kick past Vanja Milinkovic-Savic."
