Virtual title for Juve as Napoli held
JUVENTUS has the champagne on ice after Napoli was held to a 2-2 draw by Torino yesterday to all but mathematically hand the Bianconeri their seventh successive Serie A title.
Napoli is 6 points behind Juventus with 2 matches left. Both sides have the same head-to-head record — which is the next deciding factor — but Juventus has a significantly better goal difference.
Juventus can mathematically secure the title at AS Roma this weekend.
After Juventus beat Bologna on Saturday, Napoli knew it needed a victory to keep the title race alive.
Napoli wasted a couple of opportunities before taking the lead in the 25th minute.
It was Dries Mertens’ 31st birthday and Nicolas Burdisso gifted him a goal as he failed to control a backpass with two awful touches, allowing the Belgium international to pounce and end his 8-round goal drought.
Torino leveled 10 minutes into the second half when Daniele Baselli’s effort was deflected in off Vlad Chiriches.
Substitute, Marek Hamsik, who had been on the pitch for less than 2 minutes, fired Napoli in front again, curling into the right side of the net, only for Lorenzo De Silvestri to head in the equalizer 7 minutes from time.
