Napoli drew with Udinese, securing a 16-point lead over the second-place team. This was enough to ensure them the league title after 33 years.
It was the Nigerian wonder Osimhen who grabbed the title for Napoli. A draw was enough to bring it home, to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. In the post-Maradona era, the guys led by Spalletti became the first group to win it. Spalletti even became the oldest coach to get his hands on the Serie A trophy, 64 years and 58 days old.
What a season did these guys have! A 15-match unbeaten streak was enough to give them a great start. And they fought till the last to attain a smooth victory. Napoli’s contingent of traveling fans was making all the noise in the opening stages, though their enthusiasm was dampened when Lovric planted a brilliant finish into the top-right corner in the 13th minute. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia also had a penalty decision overruled by VAR.
Osimhen made it 1-1 in the 52nd Minute. That was enough to make them win the title but Napoli kept on pushing forward. Osimhen thought he made it 2-1 in the 67th minute but it was disallowed by VAR in the later period of the game. It didn’t matter, Napoli is the Champions of Italy now. These guys will go down in the history books as the ones to remember, as the ones who conquered Italy with will and passion.

“The problem for those who are used to always working hard, like me, is that they can’t even fully enjoy victories. Happiness is a fleeting thing. Now I’ve won, ok, but then you have to work again. It’s a life approach that takes away something from you. Seeing the Neapolitans smile, the Neapolitans happy is the greatest emotion.
“They are the ones who transfer happiness to me. They will be able to overcome the hard moments of life by thinking back to this moment here. So it is an important thing. Now I feel more relaxed. Thank goodness, I managed to give this happiness to the Neapolitans.” the passion clearly reflected in the voice of Spalletti. He also dedicated the victory to the players and the people of the city.
“Firstly, I dedicate it to the players, who deserved this happiness. The second to all the public, to all of Naples: it’s for you, Naples! And to the club, to everyone who works in this club. And also a little to Matilde, who is my daughter, and to all my family, friends, my brother Marcello.” Also, read- Bundesliga: Matchday 31 Preview
