“We are close to winning the Scudetto, but we still have one more step to go. It will be at home with the support of our fans,” Conte said after the game.

“It was a difficult season. We’re did what we wanted to do, which was to make the top teams suffer until the end. We were at the top of the table for a long time, even though it was a difficult season, but we never complained.

“We tried to push forward and we had the chance to seize the opportunity to achieve something unexpected and historic for Napoli.”
