Napoli closed with a flourish, Inter disappointed and put the Champions League place at risk. This is the San Paolo tweet after 90 minutes in which, surprisingly, it was Callejon and his companions who wanted more, more determination and more determination. Physically and mentally, however, Spalletti's boys have collapsed and now they will have to tighten their ranks to avoid the collapse (a failed success with Empoli could lead to Milan overtaking).

ROCKET— Lucianone tried to get out of the pressure of Napoli with the dribble from the start, perhaps for this reason he preferred Lautaro (who hit a crossbar in the final) to Icardi (who then transformed the penalty from 4-1). Ancelotti's boys have accepted the challenge and tried to press high to avoid Perisic and Politano gaining speed. The guests struggled to find between the Nainggolan lines (except on one occasion in the 40th minute) and just from a wrong pass towards the Belgian, from Asamoah was born, at 16 ', the goal of the blue advantage with Zielinski: ball recovered and ground-to-air missile at the intersection, unstoppable for Handanovic. Inter suffered the blow and risked a lot in a couple of circumstances because the team stretched out granting grasslands on the outer lanes (Callejon very dangerous on 42 '). To climb up the slope Spalletti reversed his wings for a moment but it was Lautaro who forced Karnezis (chosen by surprise by Ancelotti) to the first parade of the evening, in perfect Garella style with his feet.

MYSTERY NERAZZURRO— The first half ended like this, the second half started with Icardi instead of Politano and an Inter with the "dancer" module. The center of gravity of Naples has gone down but the Nerazzurri strikers have found a very careful Koulibaly on their way. Mertens and his companions could have often sunk into the mesh of a rearguard that was not understood if it was deployed at three or four. The Belgian ferret first failed a right chance, then on 61 minutes he doubled his head on an assist at Callejon's kiss. Skriniar remained astonished, as did all Inter. The reaction was more anger than technique from Spalletti's men (Karnezis' parade on D’Ambrosio and resounding rescue of Koulibaly on Lautaro's right-footed goalkeeper). So Ruiz's three to zero seemed almost inescapable because Inter's defenders played the part of the crib shepherds again, allowing the Spaniard to support a Malcuit pass on the net. The former from Betis made poker, and a personal double, with a left-handed from close range just before the eleven-meter Icardi set the score at 4-1. A network that has not raised Inter, already on the table for some time and with the head to the last 90 minutes of the championship that risk becoming sportingly dramatic.
