NAPLES - “Up until two months ago the miracle had already happened, now the real miracle would be winning the championship”. Words by Salvatore Bagni, former pillar of Napoli in the first scudetto, who speaks about the final sprint between Antonio Conte's team and Simone Inzaghi's Inter. The Neapolitans are in the lead with 78 points, closely followed by the Nerazzurri with 77. A season finale that promises to be incandescent.
Bagni has no doubts: Napoli has already done more than one could have expected, given the difficult season it came from. But now, precisely because it is ahead, everything changes: "Being in the lead, even by just one point, with two games to go, is a significant advantage. At this point it would be a shame not to close the circle."
The former midfielder underlines how, in such a tight finale, the details count the most. “In May, your legs don’t turn as they used to, that’s normal. But one more run, one play, one episode, a bit of luck can be enough. It’s not the time to play well, it’s the time to win.”
And it is precisely having reached the summit, according to Bathrooms, can give the decisive push: "Determination is a given, but the mental energy of those in the lead can make the difference. You need clarity, hunger and the awareness of having a great opportunity. Napoli has already done a lot, but now they can't be satisfied."

The article is interesting but in my opinion there are too many factors to consider. Napoli did well, but you can't say that the scudetto is already in the bag. The competition is strong and anything can happen in the last few days.
