Inter will hold their game in the 22nd round of the Italian league only on Sunday, but already tonight (Saturday) its people must have released a wide smile. This, after the two big rivals at the top, Milan and Juventus, lost. The champions first surrendered 1-0 to Napoli, and the leader failed to take advantage of this and lost 2-0 to Spacia from the bottom. Following this, Antonio Conte was given a chance to qualify for the summit.
Napoli – Juventus 0: 1
The gap of the reigning champions from leading Milan stands at 7 points (this is before Milan’s game against Spezia), but at the end of this cycle the team of Andrea Pirlo will have another game to complete. This will not necessarily encourage the guest of the evening, who at this rate may lose the title.
Lorenzo Insigne scored the only goal of the game in the penalty area in the 31st minute. The captain, who has previously missed three times from the penalty spot against Yuba, has raised his tally to 100 goals in the club uniform. On the other hand, the visitors recorded no less than 22 threats, but were unable to find the net. Cristiano Ronaldo was arrested by Alex Mart.

Specia – Milan 0: 2
Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his teammates were given a golden opportunity to open a 10-point gap from Juventus (Rossoneri also plays more) as well as to stress Inter before their tough game against Lazio, but kicked very hard in the bucket and could pay dearly for it later in the season. The host is less interesting – she recorded a second consecutive victory and opened a gap of 9 points from the red line. Julio Maggiore scored first from close range in the 56th minute, Simona Bastoni doubled 11 minutes later with a sharp left-footed kick.
Another result: Torino – Genoa 0: 0.
