Match Report

Napoli secured a top-four finish in Serie A with a routine 3-0 win over bottom side Pisa.

With Juventus beaten by Fiorentina and falling five points Antonio Conte's side with one game remaining, goals from Scott McTominay, Amir Rrahmani and Rasmus Hojlund saw the Partenopei ensure Champions League football next season.

The visitors broke the deadlock midway through the first half at Arena Garibaldi as Hojlund laid the ball off for McTominay, who slotted past Pisa goalkeeper Adrian Semper from the edge of the box.

Napoli doubled their lead six minutes later, with Eljif Elmas' deep corner nodded in by Rrahmani at the far post.

Pisa almost pulled a goal back in first-half stoppage time, but Alex Meret produced a superb reflex save at his far post to deny Filip Stojilkovic from close range.

Conte's side subsequently cruised through the second half, and rounded off victory right at the death, with substitute Pasquale Mazzocchi drilling the ball across the area for Hojlund.

Data Debrief: Back-to-back double figures for McTominay 

McTominay netted his 10th Serie A goal of the season, and became only the second Napoli midfielder to reach double figures in two different campaigns in the last 90 years, after club great Marek Hamsik (four times).

It gave the Partenopei only their second win in six league games after a dominant display, in which they outperformed their 1.08 expected goals (xG), and attempted the most passes by any side in a single match this season (770).

Meanwhile, it is now eight straight defeats for relegated Pisa, who recorded a meagre 0.8 xG of, extending their longest losing streak in Serie A.

It was also their 13th home loss of the season, which is the joint-most in the top 10 European leagues, while only Pescara (14 in 2012-13) have recorded more in a single Italian top-flight campaign.
