ROME -- Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain and Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina both passed medicals with Napoli on Wednesday, clearing the way for the duo to join the Serie A runner-up. Higuain was greeted by about 100 jubilant Napoli fans waving club scarves and Argentina flags when he arrived for the medical exam, and club president Aurelio De Laurentiis said on Twitter later that both players had passed. He said there will be a "big party" in the city on Monday to celebrate the new arrivals. Arsenal was also interested in Higuain, but the 25-year-old Argentine is expected to complete a 40 million euro ($53 million) transfer to Napoli and link up with his new teammates at their training camp in Verona. Reina underwent a medical at the club earlier in the day. "Im happy to link up again with coach (Rafa) Benitez, who I knew for five years between Spain and England, and with who I have always worked very well," Reina said as he left the clinic following his medical. Benitez joined Napoli at the end of May, succeeding Walter Mazzarri, who resigned and signed to coach Inter. The Spanish coach has already signed defender Raul Albiol and forward Jose Callejon from Real Madrid, as well as PSV Eindhoven winger Dries Mertens and Santos goalkeeper Rafael. Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis recently claimed his club had 124.5 million euros ($164.5 million) to invest in the team following the 60 million euro ($79 million) sale of Edinson Cavani to Paris Saint-Germain.

MANCHESTER, England -- It might be time for Manchester City to start practicing penalties.Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Aguero had spot kicks saved as City drew 1-1 with Everton in the Premier League on Saturday in the latest stumble by Pep Guardiolas side.Thats four failures from eight attempts from the penalty spot this season for City, with Aguero having spurned two chances in a Champions League qualifier. The striker missed one for Argentina in its loss in South American qualifying on Tuesday, too.Asked if City practices penalties in training, Guardiola said no before adding: I dont have time to practice everything I want to practice.It needed a 72nd-minute goal by Nolito, seconds after the Spain forward came on as a substitute, to earn City a point from a game it dominated at Etihad Stadium, with 72 percent possession and 19 shots on goal.Its the first testing spell of Guardiolas short reign, with this draw coming after a 3-3 draw at Celtic in the Champions League and a 2-0 loss at Tottenham in the Premier League. The team opened the season with 10 straight wins.We did absolutely everything, Guardiola said.Romelu Lukaku, with his sixth goal in his last five games, put Everton in front against the run of play in the 64th by running onto a flick by Yannick Bolasie in central midfield, dribbling past last-man Gael Clichy and burying a low finish.That was a rare foray forward by the visitors, who defended deeply and tried to hit on the counterattack.Everton goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg backed up his penalty stops by producing a brilliant save to tip De Bruynes shot around the post in the last minutes, leading Everton manager Ronald Koeman to say: Maybe the goalkeeper played his best game ever.ddddddddddddCity are the best team in my managerial career I have played against, Koeman added.City is now only top of the Premier League on goal difference from Arsenal.It was a fascinating tactical duel between Guardiola and Koeman, who played together at Barcelona in the early 1990s and were disciples of the Spanish clubs then-coach, Johan Cruyff. Koeman was a mentor and roommate to Guardiola in those days, teaching an eager-to-learn youngster about tactics and styles of play.Now Guardiolas tactical acumen is widely regarded as second to none, and intriguingly he switched to a 3-2-4-1 formation, playing three men in defense for the first time as City manager.Guardiola also chose to start with Aguero on the bench after the strikers exertions with Argentina over the international break, meaning the teams top scorer wasnt on the field when City was awarded its first penalty in the major incident of the first half, after David Silva was tripped by Phil Jagielka.De Bruyne replaced Aguero as penalty-taker and his kick was a nice height for Stekelenburg, who parried the ball away diving to his left.Aguero was on the pitch for 14 minutes when he earned his own penalty, with Jagielka again the Everton player committing the foul. Stekelenburg dived the correct way again, clawing away Agueros attempt.By then, Lukaku had put Everton ahead but Nolito, back from a three-match domestic suspension, headed Silvas cross inside the near post for the equalizer.
