SSC Napoli can already make the first win of the Italian soccer championship since the era of Diego Maradona perfect next weekend. A goal in added time gave the superior Serie A leaders a 1-0 (0-0) win at Juventus Turin on Sunday. The guests, who were eliminated by AC Milan in this week’s Champions League quarter-finals, enthusiastically celebrated Giacomo Raspadori’s goal against record champions Juventus.
The success means that Napoli are now 17 points clear of second-placed Lazio with seven games to play. Should Napoli win their home game against US Salernitana next Saturday and Lazio fail to score three points at Inter Milan on Sunday, Napoli would be crowned champions prematurely. Argentina legend Maradona had led the club from the southern Italian metropolis to the championship in 1987 and 1990.
