(Reuters) - Napoli went top of Serie A with 4-0 victory at Cagliari on Sunday, thanks to goals from Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Romelu Lukaku and Alessandro Buongiorno.
After beginning the season with a shock loss to Hellas Verona, Antonio Conte's side have secured three consecutive wins.
Napoli took the lead with a fortuitous shot from Di Lorenzo, whose attempt from outside the box deflected off Cagliari defender Yerry Mina and rolled into the far corner after 18 minutes.
The match was suspended for several minutes in the first half after fans from both sides threw objects at each other and fireworks onto the field.
Cagliari launched several attacks in the early part of the second half, but Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret made several impressive saves to maintain his side's lead.
In the 66th minute, Lukaku’s through ball set up Kvaratskhelia for a second goal, and the Belgian striker added a third four minutes later following a defensive error.
Deep into stoppage time, Buongiorno headed in the fourth goal from a corner to give the visitors all three points.
