The victory ensured Inter Milan couldn't stretch their lead at the top of the table

SSC Napoli clung to their Serie A title hopes on Saturday evening, grinding out a narrow 1-0 win over one of the league’s strugglers. The victory ensured Inter Milan couldn't stretch their lead at the top of the table, keeping the Scudetto race alive heading into the final stretch of the 2024–25 season.

The only goal of the match came in the 72nd minute. Italian forward Giacomo Raspadori delivered a perfectly timed cross into the box, where an unmarked Scott McTominay rose highest and powered a header past the keeper—earning Napoli three massive points in their pursuit of domestic glory.
