Second-placed Napoli threw the Serie A title race open in dramatic style when Kalidou Koulibaly scored with a towering header in the last minute to give them a 1-0 win at leaders Juventus.

They are now one point behind Juve, who have won the past six titles, with four games to go – and the Turin side have yet to visit Inter Milan and Roma.

Napoli dominated play but failed to create clear chances until centre-back Koulibaly powered home Jose Callejon’s corner in the last minute.

“The city fired us up over the last few days and when we see all those fans accompanying us to the airport, it makes us very happy,” said Koulibaly.
