Inter has been focused on their Champions League campaign, but their domestic form has been impressive, with a 2-0 win over Turin thanks to goals from Nicola Zalewski and Kristjan Asllani. Zalewski, on loan from Roma, has quickly become a key player for Inter, and his goal-breaking strike was followed by Asllani's well-taken penalty.
Inter's efficiency and consistency have put pressure on Napoli, who were expected to take a decisive step towards the title at home. However, Genoa had other plans. Despite going behind, they equalized and then took the lead with a stunning goal from Jack Raspadori. Napoli responded, but Vásquez's header in the 84th minute sealed the draw, leaving Napoli with a tough task ahead.
Napoli can no longer afford to slip up, or they risk blowing the title. They currently lead by one point with two matches left to defend their position. The team's focus must be on the final stretch, and coach Conte has insisted that he is solely focused on finishing the campaign. Meanwhile, rumors continue to swirl about his possible departure, but for now, he remains committed to the task at hand.
Next weekend, Inter will face Lazio while Napoli will take on Parma. On paper, Napoli have the easier fixture, but in this stage of the season, every match is crucial. Napoli must deliver a strong performance to secure the title, and it's now or never for them.
Despite the setback, Napoli's players must block out the noise and focus on the task at hand. They have a clear goal, and they must not miss it. The pressure is on, and the final sprint is about to begin.
