„Napoli“ withdraws from the race for the „Scudetto“. Luciano Spaletti's players already have a 4-point deficit against the first-placed team „AC Milan“ after a 1:1 draw with „AS Roma“. In the 11th minute of the match, „Napoli“ players took the lead. After a VAR review, a penalty was awarded to Roma, which was successfully converted by Lorenzo Insigne. In the remaining part of the match, „Napoli“ had several chances to score and double the lead, but Roma's defense was solid. Finally, Stephan El Shaarawy equalized the score during added time with a smart pass from Tammy Abraham. The referee added a total of 8 minutes of stoppage time, during which „AS Roma“ players had a few dangerous counterattacks, but they couldn't widen the lead. Jose Mourinho's team still has theoretical chances to break into the top four, as their closest rivals „Juventus“ dropped points at home against „Bologna“.
