There are four rounds left in the Serie A season, and Napoli's players have everything in their hands when it comes to the fight for the Scudetto.
The Neapolitans defeated Torino (2:0) at home last night, taking advantage of Inter's defeat to Roma (1:0), and are three points ahead of the "nero azzurri".
"Honestly, I didn't watch the Inter-Roma game. I watched the second half of Fiorentina-Empoli. You can believe me if you want, if not - I don't care. I turned off my phone, I found out the result of the Inter-Roma game later," Napoli coach Antonio Conte said last night.
Napoli are top of the table for the first time since the 25th round, with four rounds remaining until the end of the season. Napoli will play against Lecce and Parma away, and against Genoa and Cagliari at home. On the other hand, Inter will play against Verona and Lazio at the "Meaci", and will be away to Torino and Como.
"We have taken one step, there are four more to go. We are playing against teams that are fighting for survival. Everything is in our hands," said Conte.
Napoli has the opportunity to win the Scudetto for the second time in three years.
"Getting to the stadium was difficult, because there were so many fans gathered. They were excited, they tried to transmit their energy to us," explained Conte.
The midfield played an important role against Torino, with Scott McTominay excelling as a double scorer.
"We have to work hard, to get the most out of our resources. I think all the boys have improved. We have worked hard during the season and now we are reaping the fruits of that work. We have 74 points, there are four rounds to go, we have secured the Champions League, when we look back and see where we started, this is an extraordinary job. Winning the Scudetto would be incredible. All the credit for this goes to the boys," said Conte.
