Napoli twice took the lead, through Matteo Politano and Victor Osimhen, but Cheddira hauled Napoli level on both occasions.

Cheddira was signed by Napoli in August but immediately sent on loan to Frosinone.

Italy coach Luciano Spalletti, who last season led Napoli to their first league title in more than three decades, was watching from the stands and appeared to be fighting back tears as the home fans chanted his name after he was shown on the stadium’s giant screens.

Napoli, eighth in Serie A, are on their third coach since Spalletti left at the end of last season.
