MILAN (AP) — League leader Napoli has been held to a 1-1 draw by Hellas Verona.

Verona ended the match with nine men after substitutes Daniel Bessa and Nikola Kalinić were sent off in separate incidents late on. Giovanni Simeone gave Verona an early lead but that only lasted five minutes before Giovanni Di Lorenzo’s equalizer.
