Scudetto race heads to final day after Napoli and Inter stalemate

Serie A’s title race will be decided on the final matchday after Napoli and Inter Milan both drew in Matchday 37.

Napoli was held 0-0 by relegation-threatened Parma, with a late penalty overturned by VAR. Inter twice led against Lazio but drew 2-2 after Pedro’s double and a disallowed Arnautović winner.

Napoli remains one point ahead of Inter. A win against Cagliari seals the title for Napoli. If they drop points, Inter can overtake them with a victory over Como.

Both coaches, Antonio Conte (Napoli) and Simone Inzaghi (Inter), were sent off and will miss the final matches.

Title Scenarios:

– Napoli win: Champions
– Napoli draw + Inter win: Inter champions
– Napoli draw + Inter fail to win: Napoli champions
– Napoli lose + Inter win: Inter champions
– Napoli lose + Inter draw: Title playoff
– Napoli lose + Inter lose: Napoli champions
