The title race in the Italian top league is getting more intense with time. The positions of the three teams at the top of the points table are changing repeatedly. In the last round, Napoli and AC Milan stumbled, while Inter Milan returned to the top by winning their own matches.
All three teams won in the 14th round last week. In this, the top position changed three times in three days; first Inter Milan rose to the top and then Napoli rose to the top and finally AC Milan regained the top position.
This time, all three teams took to the field on Sunday. With the confidence of three consecutive wins, AC Milan played at home and drew 2-2 with Sassuolo. However, they retained the top position as they did then.
Napoli also took to the field with the confidence of three consecutive wins. But last year’s champions lost at Udinese, 1-0.
In the final match of the day, Inter Milan, who were third in the table, took a two-goal lead in the first half against Genoa. Although they conceded a goal in the second half, they held on for the rest of the game to claim their third consecutive league win and reclaim the top spot.
Inter Milan are top of the table with 33 points after 15 rounds. Their city rivals AC Milan are second with 32 points. Napoli are third with 31 points.
Roma are fourth, four points behind them.
