Lazio forward Ciro Immobile equaled the Serie A record of 36 goals in a season during the first half of Saturday's finale at Napoli.

Immobile now sits joint-top with current Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain, who established the mark during the 2015-16 campaign while with Napoli.

The Italian international canceled out Napoli's opener when he and Adam Marusic marched through the opponent's backline before calmly slotting it past David Ospina.

Immobile, 30, will be crowned the Capocannoniere winner for a third time following Sunday's matches. He will also capture the Golden Shoe as Europe's top goalscorer after surpassing Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski's tally of 34 midweek against Brescia.
