The midfielder took too long to clear on the edge of his own area and had his pocket picked by Allan, who coolly slotted through the legs of Consigli.Faouzi Ghoulam came agonisingly close to extending the hosts' lead shortly after, thumping a half volley against the post after a corner fell kindly to him. Sassuolo responded well to the setback and scored an unlikely leveller four minutes before the break. Matteo Politano delivered a teasing cross from the right and Falcinelli beat his marker to plant a firm header past Reina for his first goal of the season. Their joy was short-lived, though, as Consigli conspired to punch Lorenzo Insigne's corner, which had glanced off the head of Callejon, into this own net just a minute before half-time to restore Napoli's lead. The visitors almost took a shock lead after just 11 minutes, but Stefano Sensi's whipped free-kick from the edge of the penalty area crashed back off Jose Reina's crossbar.  Sensi then played an unfortunate role in Napoli's opener in the 22nd minute.
