Inter dropped points against Parma at the weekend, but Napoli was unable to get closer to Simone Inzaghi's team, and stays second. 

David Neres had gone closest to opening the scoring in the opening stages, but Napoli hit the front in the 18th minute through Frank Anguissa. 

The midfielder powered his way towards the Bologna box from deep, riding Juan Miranda's challenge before rounding Lukasz Skorupski and putting the ball home. 

Antonio Conte's side almost doubled its tally before the break, but substitute goalkeeper Federico Ravaglia's outstretched hand denied Matteo Politano. 

However, Bologna improved after the break as Simone Scuffet produced a brilliant stop before Riccardo Orsolini fired over from close range soon after. 

The host side got its reward in the 64th minute through a stunning finish from Dan Ndoye. 

After neat build-up play down the left side, Jens Odgaard's cross picked out Ndoye, who produced a sensational back-heel finish that hit the underside of the bar and in. 

Napoli came close to stealing all three points late on, but Romelu Lukaku and Anguissa were unable to latch on to Amir Rrahmani's effort into the box.
