Leave the game to the players? The coaches of the two Serie A championship teams are both red and the final battle is on the wall

Football

In the early morning of May 19, the 37th round of the 2024/25 Serie A started at the same time. The two teams in the championship, Naples and Inter Milan drew with their respective opponents, continuing to rank in the top two in Serie A by 1 point difference. It is worth mentioning that in this round of the game, Naples coach Conte and Inter Milan coach Inzaghi both received red cards and missed the final battle on-site command. In other words, the suspense of the Serie A championship this season must be left to the players of the two teams to solve it themselves.

Inter Milan's opponent in this game is Lazio of the Blue Eagles. Before this game, Inter Milan defeated his opponents in the first leg of the Serie A and Italy. In this game, Inter Milan also scored first and took the lead twice. However, Lazio, who is determined to compete for the Champions League qualification, did not give up. Veteran Pedro's score helped them tie Inter Milan 2-2 and escaped from the Meazza Stadium.

In this game, Inter Milan coach Inzaghi's on-the-spot response is still worth discussing. While the goal-scoring hero Bisek was obviously ineffective, he still did not make a substitution adjustment. It was Bissek's handball foul before the end of the game that led to Inter Milan being tied by his opponent. In this penalty, Inzaghi and the opponent's coach Baroni were also sent to the stands due to verbal conflicts.

Naples, which leads the standings, will challenge Parma, coached by former Inter Milan legend Zivo. In this game, Napoli, who was significantly stronger than the top, accounted for 72% of the ball possession rate, but only 7 shots and 2 targets were made in the whole game. Anguysa, Politano and McTominay hit the goal frame one after another. In the first minute of injury time, Conte and Zivo attacked each other on the sidelines, but were both sent off by the referee for fifty rebounds. In the 7th minute of stoppage time, Nerez fell to the ground in the penalty area and the referee awarded a penalty kick. But with VAR's reminder, the penalty kick was eventually cancelled. In the end, Napoli drew 0-0 with Parma.

In the latest standings, Naples scored 79 points and Inter Milan scored 78 points, and the championship battle between the two teams is still in a stalemate. In the last round, Inter Milan challenged Como away, while Napoli faced Genoa at home. If Naples wins, they will win the championship trophy without caring about the results of Inter Milan. If Napoli cannot win and Inter Milan wins, the Nerazzurri will be the last one to laugh.

Of course, there is another extreme situation where Napoli loses and Inter Milan draws. In this way, the two teams will score 79 points together. According to Serie A rules, if the two teams involved in championship and relegation in the last round of the season have the same points, the final game of the playoffs will be played at the neutral court, with a 90-minute game time, and a penalty shootout will be held to decide the outcome. I guess this is also the result that the Serie A wants to see.
