NAPLES, Italy :Napoli snatched a last-gasp 1-0 victory at home to Cagliari on Saturday as Frank Anguissa’s late strike salvaged three points in a largely frustrating Serie A game for the champions.

Deep into stoppage-time, Alessandro Buongiorno picked out Anguissa with a precise ball across the box and the unmarked midfielder slotted home the winner.

After a lacklustre first half that produced few clear openings, the second period was also subdued.

Leonardo Spinazzola went close for the hosts just before the hour mark, but former Napoli goalkeeper Elia Caprile dived low to make a one-handed save.

Napoli kept pouring forward, however, and Scott McTominay’s stoppage-time strike was gathered by Caprile before Anguissa delivered the knockout blow.
