“In the Serie A championship, the Napoli team did not receive a gift from Inter Milan.
After a fierce battle, they fell 2-3 against Juventus from Turin, allowing the current champions and leaders to escape unharmed.
Juventus team took the lead in the 12th minute after a precise shot by Douglas Costa.
The situation became even more difficult for the Inter team when Matias Vecino was sent off in the 17th minute.
Nevertheless, after the break Inter came out completely different. In the 51st minute, Mauro Icardi managed to equalize the score. And in the 64th minute, Andre Barzagli sent the ball into his own net and Inter took the lead 2-1.
However, Juventus managed to avoid a tragedy. In the 86th minute, Milan Skriniar scored an own goal to level the score at 2-2. And just two minutes later, Gonzalo Higuain turned the result in favor of Juventus.
Now Juve has a four-point advantage over Napoli. This loss cost Inter dearly as well. They are four points behind third-placed Roma and one point behind Lazio, who are in fourth place but have played one less game.
