It was Mc Tominay’s second goal in three games having scored in Napoli’s 1-1 draw at title rivals Inter Milan before the international break. "I've scored two important goals in the last three games, but the whole team deserves credit, " said Mc Tominay. "We're improving and we've got to keep this up. The great results we're getting is proof that we're working well. " Coach Antonio Conte, who took charge in June, added: "We quietly signed [Mc Tominay] and the club and sporting director Giovanni Manna did a great job at understanding what he could bring to Napoli. "But the same goes for every new recruit. We're a team that's on the up and the growth of a team happens through the steps each individual player must take every week. " Scotland striker Che Adams missed a great chance to open the scoring for Torino as he sent a free header wide from close range. Napoli went into the weekend a point clear with four teams level in second place, including Fiorentina and Inter Milan, whose game was abandoned after Edoardo Bove collapsed on the pitch.
