On this day in 2018, Mario Mandzukic led the way towards victory against their southern rivals, Napoli. The Partenopei took an early lead through Dries Mertens.

The Croatian equalized with a towering header after being set up by Cristiano Ronaldo who delivered a sublime cross from the left.

Mario Rui made things worse for the visitors after receiving his marching orders, and Leonardo Bonucci sealed the victory with a third goal from the corner kick.
