There goes the whistle! A superb night for Leonardo and Inter. A smashing game, but Inter are worthy winners. Can Inter drag themselves back into the title race? They will take a lot of confidence from this victory.
89'
Going to be four minutes added to the match, but it is already game over.
88'
Maggio takes a tumble in the box as Cambiasso comes across to tidy up. No hint of a foul. Lost his footing.
87'
Zuniga tosses over a hopeful cross, but Inter have enough bodies back to deal with matters. Sums up Napoli's night. Their attacks have lacked real penetration.
86'
Inter will be seventh in the table after this win. They remain seven points behind Napoli in third, but have two games in hand.
85'
Motta departs to be replaced by Sulley Muntari. Almost time up. Napoli will be disappointed with their efforts in this second half. Have not really built up any sustained pressure.
84'
Milito continues to work hard. He thumps an effort wide of the target. Decent play by Milito as Inter try to finish with a flourish.
83'
Napoli searching desperately for a second goal. Lavezzi's header is saved by Castellazzi.
82'
Campagnaro throws over another cross, but Maicon takes no chances as he heads out. Inter sitting deeper and deeper. Dangerous ploy.

Off goes Pandev and on comes Jonathan Biabiany.
80'
Into the final ten minutes and Leonardo is looking at another change. Maggio crosses into the box, but headed over by Zuniga.

Booking for Maicon for taking down Hamsik. Yebda gets a header at goal, but easy save for Castellazzi.

Stankovic is off to be replaced by McDonald Mariga. He salutes the fans after shaking the hands of every member of the Inter bench.
77'
Zuniga looking at the shot, which he takes. Too much on the shot. Well over the bar. Always unlikely to score from that distance.
76'
Leonardo can begin to count down the minutes. He can be pleased with this effort this evening. Has been professional stuff from Inter in the second half.

Free header for Maggio from Lavezzi's corner. Got in front of Lucio, but he nods wide of the target. That was a real chance for the visiting side.
73'
Maggio races back to nick the ball away from Pandev as he prepared to pull the trigger. Chivu makes a decent tackle on Cavani.
72'
Campagnaro looking for Lavezzi in the middle, but Lucio does enough to get that ball out before Inter deal well with the corner. Inter can hit on the break again.
71'
Massimo Moratti, the Inter president, looking happy enough with this effort as he looks on from the stands. Can Napoli find a goal to force a grandstand finish? Need one soon.
