It's another prestigious friendly win for Napoli, as they sweep Bordeaux aside at the San Paolo.

The Vesuviani, who had already beaten German giants Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in pre-season, hosted the club that finished fifth in Ligue 1 last season, in Naples last night.

Decked out in their new white away strip, the hosts took the lead shortly before half-time when Goran Pandev clipped in a clever half-volley from the edge of the box. The assist came from young Chilean striker Eduardo Vargas, who has been linked with a loan move elsewhere.
