McTominay, who also hit a post, missed a month of the season after undergoing a surgical procedure in early September to treat an irregular heartbeat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Matteo Politano\u2019s first-minute opener was cancelled out by Bod\u00f8\u2019s Jens Petter Hauge. McTominay restored Napoli\u2019s lead before the break only for Andreas Helmersen to again level for the Norwegian club.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The Scotland midfielder struck again on 71 minutes and Odin Bj\u00f8rtuft\u2019s late own goal secured the result. Bod\u00f8 still managed an injury-time consolation from Sondre Brunstad Fet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Atl\u00e9tico Madrid held on with 10 men for a 1-1 draw with Stuttgart, foiling the German underdogs\u2019 bid to join Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool at the top of the table on nine points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Juli\u00e1n Alvarez\u2019s goal for Atl\u00e9tico had cancelled out Jamie Leweling\u2019s opener when the midfielder Morten Hjulmand made a reckless sliding tackle from behind on Angelo Stiller, resulting in a red card that left Atl\u00e9tico clinging on.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Serhou Guirassy scored twice but Borussia Dortmund wasted plenty more chances in a 2-1 away win over Azerbaijan\u2019s Sabah.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">It wasn\u2019t the sort of convincing victory the German team were hoping for, after last week\u2019s loss to Bod\u00f8\/Glimt and draw at Union Berlin which allowed Bayern Munich to take the top spot in the Bundesliga.<\/p>\n<p>Serhou Guirassy scores for Borussia Dortmund against Sabah.

The Turkish side had been leading 2-0 early on before a defensive blunder by Matt\u00e9o Guendouzi let the Czech team back into the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">PSV won 1-0 against Porto thanks to Guus Til\u2019s 57th-minute winner as the Portuguese side slumped to a third loss. Roma cruised to a 4-0 win over Slovan Bratislava with Mario Hermoso, Nahuel Molina and Niccol\u00f2 Pisilli on the scoresheet before Donyell Malen added a fourth from the penalty spot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Scott McTominay scored his first two goals of the season to help Napoli beat Bod\u00f8\/Glimt 4-3 and relieve&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":940887,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":["post-940886","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/940886","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=940886"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/940886\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/940887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=940886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=940886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=940886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
