Napoli manager Carlo Ancelotti was pleased with his team's performance in their 1-1 draw at home to Roma despite missing out on the chance to close the gap on league leaders Juventus. Napoli now sit seven points behind Juventus and can be overtaken in second if Inter beat Lazio on Monday evening.
The Partenopei went behind early when Stephan El Shaarawy found himself in acres of space on the edge of the six yard box and was able to steer an effort off the post and past David Ospina. Roma were then able to frustrate the home side as they defended deep with eleven men behind the ball.
