It was the 95th minute when Hojlund scored the winning goal for Napoli at Genoa's Marassi Stadium, making it 3-2. The Dane completed his brace, keeping the southern Italians in the Scudetto race.

Things hadn't gone much for the reigning champions before that. Colombo had equalized (57th minute) before Napoli defender Juan Jesus was sent off with a second yellow card. A foul in stoppage time then changed everything and left Genoa coach Daniele De Rossi disappointed. "That's not the football I've seen," the former international player fumed in a subsequent TV interview.

In the evening match, Fiorentina and Torino drew 2-2. After the Tuscans had overturned a deficit, their nerves got the better of them in the final stages. As a result, Maripan headed a free-kick cross over the line in the 94th minute to make it 2-2. Torino celebrated, while the Franchi stadium in the heart of Florence fell silent.
