Napoli's lead at the top of Serie A
is down to one point with two games to go after they were held
2-2 at home by Genoa on Sunday, while champions Inter won 2-0 at
Torino.
Antonio Conte's side went ahead twice with goals by Romelu
Lukaku and Giacomo Raspadori but the visitors came back both
times thanks to an unfortunate own goal by Napoli keeper Alex
Meret and a Johan Vasquez header.
Second-placed Inter narrowed the gap with a win in pouring rain
in Turin thanks to goals by Nicola Zalewski and Kristjan
Asllani.
AS Roma, meanwhile, have the opportunity to move up to fourth
and into the Champions League qualification zone if they beat
third-placed Atalanta in Bergamo later on Monday.
Roma are sixth with 63 points, one point behind fourth-placed
Juventus and fifth-placed Lazio, who drew 1-1 with each other on
Saturday.
Johan Vasquez's thumping header gave Genoa a late draw at a
packed Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Giacomo Raspadori thought he had won the game and all but
secured the title for Napoli in the 64th minute after a
wonderful piece of skill to control Scott McTominay's pass.
McTominay also set up Romelu Lukaku's 15th-minute opener which
was cancelled out in the 32nd minute when Napoli goalkeeper Alex
Meret inadvertantly diverted Honest Ahanor's header into his own
goal.
The cheers will have rung around the blue and black half of
Milan when Vasquez powered home Genoa's late leveller, after
Nicola Zalewski and Kristjan Asllani gave Inter just their
second away win in eight Serie A matches under torrential rain.
