VIDEOS: Higuain levels moments after Alonso hands La Viola early lead

It didn't take long for Monday's Serie A fixture between Fiorentina and Napoli at the Stadio Artemio Franchi to become an enthralling affair, as La Viola opened the scoring courtesy of Marcos Alonso, only for the host side to be pegged back a minute later by Gonzalo Higuain.

The match has major implications for the Serie A season, with fourth-place Fiorentina hosting second-place Napoli. Both sides are looking to keep pace with table-toppers Juventus.
