MILAN (Reuters) - Sampdoria striker Fabio Quagliarella missed out on becoming the first player to score in 12 successive Serie A games as his side were beaten 3-0 by second-placed Napoli on Saturday.

Arkadiusz Milik and Lorenzo Insigne both scored within a minute midway through the first half and Simone Verdi added the third from a late penalty. Napoli, with 51 points, are eight points behind Juventus who were at home to Parma later on Saturday.
