Inter Milan stun Napoli with late comeback

Third-placed Napoli failed to gain ground on leaders Juventus and second-placed Roma after blowing a two-goal lead in shocking style.

Napoli appeared destined for three points against Inter when goals from Marek Hamsik on 51 minutes and Gonzalo Higuain 12 minutes later put them in control.

Rodrigo Palacio got one back on 72 minutes and three minutes from time the Argentine forward earned a penalty when he was pulled down inside the box by Henrique who received a second yellow card.

Mauro Icardi coolly converted from the spot, chipping into the centre of the net to pick up his 15th goal of the season.
