Sunday delivered a dramatic twist in the Serie A title race, with Napoli’s draw against Genoa allowing Inter Milan to close the gap to just one point.
Here’s a comprehensive look at today’s key matches:
Napoli’s quest for the Scudetto hit a snag as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Genoa at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Romelu Lukaku and Giacomo Raspadori gave Napoli the lead twice, but Genoa responded each time through goals from Ahanor and Vasquez.
This result trims Napoli’s lead at the top to a single point, intensifying the title race with two matches remaining.
Inter Milan seized the opportunity to close the gap by securing a 2-0 victory over Torino. Nicola Zalewski opened the scoring in the 14th minute, and Kristjan Asllani doubled the lead with a penalty early in the second half.
Despite challenging weather conditions, Inter maintained their composure to claim all three points.
In a crucial match at the bottom of the table, Verona and Lecce played out a 1-1 draw. Nikola Krstović put Lecce ahead in the 24th minute, but Diego Coppola equalized for Verona before halftime.
The result leaves both teams perilously close to the relegation zone, with Lecce slipping into the bottom three.
Monza earned a valuable away win against Udinese, with goals from Gianluca Caprari and Keita Baldé securing a 2-1 victory. Lorenzo Lucca had equalized for Udinese in the 75th minute, but Baldé’s late strike ensured Monza took all three points.
With the title race now tighter than ever, all eyes will be on the remaining fixtures as Napoli and Inter Milan vie for the Scudetto. The battle for survival at the bottom of the table also promises to go down to the wire.
