Inter Milan and Napoli played out an intense 1-1 Serie A draw to end the weekend.

Neither the Nerazzurri nor the Partenopei were able to take three points in the end.

Napoli scored first. Scott McTominay toe-poked the ball in after Inter failed to clear a corner.

And then Inter responded late in the first half, through a long-range Hakan Calhanoglu effort.

In the second half, Inter had a penalty. However, the normally impeccable Calhanoglu failed to score a second from the spot.

Therefore, the two sides split the points. This has made the top end of the Serie A table look very crowded heading into the international break.

All of Atalanta, Fiorentina, Lazio, and Juventus had caught up during the weekend.

Inter defender Francesco Acerbi man-marked former teammate Romelu Lukaku throughout the match. He took to Instagram with snapshots from his battle with the Belgian.
