The finals of the best leagues in the world have some winners, some losers and certainly some very important European tickets still to come and relegation.

The imposing Napoli defined Serie A

A reformed Napoli… celebrated in this year’s Serie A, excelled from the start, increased the deficit to even 20 points and won the first division without Diego Maradona a few weeks before the end.

In the shadow of the “Partenopei”, Inter, Lazio, Milan, Juventus, Roma and Atalanta fought a great battle for the top four. The first two beat them, Juventus believed they had done the same until they were penalized again with a 10-point deduction and are now fighting Milan for the final ticket. Those who don’t manage to do this will fight Roma and Atalanta for the two Europa League tickets, with the latter being content with the Europa Conference League.

In the relegation battle, Sampdoria and Cremonese looked lost for a long time, with Verona slowing down and now threatening Spezia. They are replaced by Frosinone, Genoa and the winner of the promotion play-offs, which leave Bari, Parma, Cagliari and Sudirol.

As for the Coppa Italia, the two teams that also participate in the European final (like Roma), Inter with Fiorentina and the Nerazzurri crossed swords to win the cup.
