The inevitable in the Serie A was close to being a reality over the weekend but confirmation have been delayed and dragged on to another match week as Napoli failed to confirm their title win owing to their 1-1 draw with Salernitana at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples..
Napoli needed victory to celebrate their first league title win in 33 years after Lazio lost to Inter Milan, but would have to wait a little longer as the title win is no longer in doubt but now a matter of ‘when’ and not ‘if’ any longer.
The celebrations began in the 62nd minute of the game when Mathias Olivera put the hosts in front but those celebrations were short-lived as Boulaye Dia made sure the away team went away with a point when he levelled the score in the 84th minute.
Napoli could officially win the Scudetto with victory at the Dacia Arena in Udine when they take on Udinese in match day 33 on the 4th of May. Napoli are currently 18 points clear at the top of the table with 79 points with just six games to spare.
