Napoli's stuttering start in Serie A continued as Roma twice fought back to secure a 3-3 draw in a dramatic Derby del Sole. Scotland midfielder McTominay, who had scored twice in the 4-3 Champions League win over Bodo/Glimt as his return to action from heart surgery continued, then drilled in a low strike from 20 yards. McTominay's goal looked to have put the game beyond Roma, but the home side launched a late fightback.
Roma's Leonardo Balerdi bundled in an equaliser with 20 minutes left, and the defender then headed in at the back post in the final minute to secure a draw. McTominay's brace was not enough to secure a win for Napoli, who had taken the lead through a fine strike from Frank Anguissa. The Scotland international met a lofted cross to the back post with a diving header, but Roma keeper Pierluigi Gollini scrambled out from behind the line to prevent the goal. McTominay then knocked the loose ball back in anyway.
The draw leaves Napoli's stuttering start in Serie A continuing, with the team still searching for consistency in their performances.
