Napoli stretch lead in Serie A

AFP, MILAN: Gonzalo Higuain took his tally to 20 goals in as many Serie A games this season as Napoli went four points clear of Inter Milan after a thrilling 3-1 win over Sassuolo on Saturday.
But Higuain, who is well on his way to this season’s Capocannoniere (top scorer) award, did brilliantly to give Napoli a 42nd minute lead after Jose Callejon’s 19th-minute header cancelled out Diego Falcinelli’s opener from the spot.
Even before his second goal, he had already done enough to earn the praise of Sassuolo coach Eusebio Di Francesco.
