Romelu Lukaku opened the scoring in the first half before Giacomo Raspadori doubled Napoli's advantage on the hour as they looked set to ease to victory.
However,바카라 웹사이트Albert Gudmundsson halved the deficit six minutes after Raspadori's strike, but Conte's side were able to hold on to halt their winless run in Serie A.바카라 웹사이트
Napoli, who have both scored and conceded in each of their last eight league games, won a league바카라 웹사이트match for the first time since January 25, against Juventus.
Inter had opened up a four-point gap at the summit of the standings following their 3-2 win over Monza on Saturday, but Conte's team바카라 웹사이트ensured they stayed in the title race.바카라 웹사이트
"I am very satisfied with the performance and the response of the team," Conte told reporters.
"In a growth path, it is normal that after creating so much for 60-65 minutes and getting to 2-0, conceding a goal can generate excessive anxiety.
"You have to be good at managing it, cooling the moment and keeping the ball more, continuing to do things in the right way without conceding dangerous situations. The boys did well. I'm happy."
Napoli put on a dominant showing despite the scoreline, ending the contest with an expected goals (xG) total of 2.88 from their 19 shots to Fiorentina's 1.14.바카라 웹사이트
They were sent on their way by Lukaku, who has now been involved in five goals in his last four Serie A appearances against Fiorentina (three goals and two assists).
The Belgian바카라 웹사이트is the fourth player to have scored at least five goals both home and away in Serie A this term, after Mateo Retegui, Marcus Thuram and Ademola Lookman.
But Conte said that his squad바카라 웹사이트must be more ruthless in their quest for the Scudetto this season, having wasted a number of chances in their most recent encounter.바카라 웹사이트
"We didn't take big risks and the victory is deserved for what we created," Conte said.
"We scored less than we produced and this does not satisfy me, because in certain games you dominate the opponent and you cannot go to half-time only at 1-0.
"It only takes one episode and you can lose points."
Napoli are unexpectedly battling for a league title this season, with the club selling star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in January, and are now without the injured Andre Anguissa and David Neres.
"The team passes off as normal that which is not, I must underline that," Conte said.
"Injured players are missing, it's normal, our best player leaves, it's normal.
"The guys are doing a great job in finding alternative solutions, next time have confidence and let me do things without saying to play with 4-3-3 or anything else.
"It's easy to win the bet when you place it after the event."
