Napoli failed to mathematically secure third spot in Serie A as it was held to an entertaining 0-0 draw at Inter Milan on Saturday. Seahawks Marshawn Lynch Grey Jersey . Ealier, Fiorentina crushed relegation-threatened Bologna 3-0 to keep alive its faint hopes of snatching the final Champions League berth from Napoli. Fiorentina moved to eight points behind Napoli with three rounds remaining. The two meet in the Italian Cup final next Saturday. Napoli star striker Gonzalo Higuain faces a race to be fit in time after being taken off on a stretcher four minutes from time following a tackle on Marco Andreolli. The Argentina forward, who has 20 goals in all competitions this season, has heavy bruising on his ankle but his World Cup hope is not at risk. "Its a good result, but we could have won this match," Napoli coach Rafael Benitez said. "Higuain has heavy bruising and we have to evaluate his injury. We still dont know, the doctor isnt saying anything more, at least not for now." Both managers were facing former teams at San Siro as Walter Mazzarri coached Napoli for four years before moving to Inter last summer. It was Benitezs first match at Inter since his dismissal in December 2010 following a brief tenure. "In the first half we played a great game," Mazzarri said. "We suffered a bit with their counterattacks, but we would have deserved a goal. In the second half we lacked strength. Its a pity, we could have won if we had managed to score in the first half." Both teams enjoyed numerous opportunities but couldnt score. Gokhan Inler went closest with an effort which crashed off the right post eight minutes from time for Napoli. There was controversy in the first half as Palacio fell under a tackle from Miguel Britos as he was about to burst into the box but the referee flashed only a yellow card with Inter players and fans calling for a red. Inter remained fifth, four points behind Fiorentina, which is all but mathematically sure of a Europa League spot next season after Juan Cuadrados brace. Bologna started brightly but Fiorentina began to get into the game and broke the deadlock in the 22nd minute when Cuadrado volleyed home Joaquins low cross at the far post. Josip Ilicic doubled Fiorentinas lead 12 minutes later with a 25-meter effort, which took a deflection off Michele Pazienza to loop over Gianluca Curci. Cuadrado sealed the result three minutes from time as he raced past his marker before unleashing a rocket from outside the area. http://www.seahawksstore.us.com/Nike-limited-12th-fan-mens-jersey-nfl-seattle-seahawks-drift-fashion-super-bowl-xlviii-navy-blue.html . -- The NHL says the number of concussions suffered by players this season is on par with the amount that occurred a year ago. Seahawks Kam Chancellor Lights Out Jersey .Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive end Mark Anderson has been ruled out for Sundays regular-season finale against the New York Jets. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Salvador Perez has gone from cold to hot in three games. Perez homered and drove in four runs and the Kansas City Royals rallied for a 10-7 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night. Perezs two-run double off Sergio Santos in the Royals six-run eighth put the Royals ahead. Perezs four RBIs matched his career high. The Royals had scored only four runs in the eighth inning in their first 24 games. Perez, who has three consecutive multi-hit games, homered in the seventh with Alex Gordon aboard to trim Torontos lead to 5-4. He was mired in a 1-for-29 skid before breaking out with seven hits in the past three games. "I see a couple of sliders and a couple of split-finger then they made a mistake on a fastball a little inside and up and I hit it pretty good," Perez said. The Royals sent 10 men to the plate in the eighth, which also included Omar Infante driving in two runs after collecting six RBIs on Sunday. Nori Aoki and Jarrod Dyson added RBI singles. "Thats the motto in here, never give up and always play like were in it," Dyson said. "You just need to scratch one, scratch two and we gained momentum and just took off from there. It was all momentum. Salvador put us back in there. That was the game-changer right there. We kind of knew we were coming back after that." Aaron Crow (1-1), the third of four Royals pitchers, picked up the victory with a scoreless eighth inning and has not allowed an earned run while allowing only five hits in nine innings this season. Brett Cecil (0-2) took the loss, retiring only two of the five batters he faced. The Blue Jays bullpen gave up seven runs in two innings after starter Dustin McGowan left the game. "We just got hit tonight," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said of his relievers. "We had an off day yesterday so they were fresh. We didnt help things out. We let guys take the extra base by missing the cutoff man. Youre not going to win that way. Weve proved that we can play good defeence. Seahawks Kam Chancellor Youth Jersey. ." Jose Bautista homered for the Blue Jays off Royals left-hander Jason Vargas and has reached base in all 26 games. Melky Cabrera extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a double and triple, and drove in two Toronto runs. He tops the majors with 41 hits. Cabreras triple in the fifth scored Jose Reyes, who had doubled. Cabrera scored on Vargas wild pitch, putting the Blue Jays up 3-2. McGowan, who has missed three seasons with injuries, pitched into the seventh inning, holding the Royals to three hits and three runs, two earned. "Im really encouraged," McGowan said. "I went deep into the game. Thats all Ive been wanting to do. Sometimes the results are overshadowed by the innings youve pitched. But good things happen when you get deep in games." The Royals took advantage of two walks and a wild pitch, plus a throwing error on catcher Dioner Navarro to score two runs in the second inning. The Royals won a challenge review in the second, taking away a RBI infield single from Chris Getz. The Royals have scored 19 runs in winning the past two games. "Its going to click; we know that," Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer said of the offence. "Were confident in our group. Weve been getting some timely hits. Its a great thing about this offence. It could be a different guy every day that steps up and has a big night. Salvy obviously had that night tonight." NOTES: Royals LHP Bruce Chen received a shot for a bulging disc in his lower back and will miss a start. Chen will attempt to a throw a side session Thursday and if that goes well would start Saturday against Detroit. ... Getz had his contract purchased from Triple-A Buffalo, where he hit .309 in 18 games. The Jays optioned rookie IF Ryan Goins, who was hitting .150 with two extra-base hits in 60 at-bats, to Buffalo. ... The start of the game was delayed 27 minutes by rain. ... The Royals scored a season-high 10 runs and are 13-0 when scoring four or more runs. ' ' '
