Billy Gilmour and Lorenzo Lucca both opened their Napoli accounts at the Stadio Maradona on Monday night as Antonio Conte's men beat Pisa 3-2 to make it four wins from four in Serie A this season.

The Scot fired home the opener shortly before the break after buying himself a yard with a clever dummy.

After the restart, M'Bala Nzola levelled from the spot for the visitors but Leo Spinazzola's low finish then restored the lead. 

Lucca came off the bench with 13 minutes remaining and wasted little time in displaying the sort of clinical finishing he is capable of as he struck a fierce shot into the top corner after being played in by Scott McTominay.

Lorran reduced the arrears on the stroke of the 90 and it made for a nervy finale but the Azzurri held on to claim a vital three points.
