Fiorentina were held to a 1-1 draw by fellow Champions League hopefuls Napoli in their opening game of the new Serie A season at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence on Sunday evening.
Edinson Cavani scored a controversial goal very early in the first-half but five minutes into the second session Gaetano D'Agostino restored parity. Both sides then had a man sent off as Juan Manuel Vargas was given his marching orders in the 67th minute and seven minutes later Napoli's Manuele Blasi was forced to go for an early shower.
