Inter Milan on Verge of Serie A Title After Napoli's Home Loss

Inter Milan is poised to win the Serie A title after Lazio defeated Napoli 2-0 at home on Saturday. Inter can secure the championship with a win next Sunday, provided Napoli fails to beat Cremonese. Lazio's goals came from Matteo Cancellieri in the sixth minute and Toma Basic in the 57th minute. Napoli's defeat was their first at home this season, and they were jeered off the field by their own fans.

Lazio had an aggressive start, taking the lead early through Cancellieri. They missed a penalty opportunity in the 31st minute when Mattia Zaccagni's spot-kick was saved, and he later missed the rebound. Despite other missed chances, Toma Basic sealed the win for Lazio in the second half. Elsewhere, Roma was playing Atalanta later in the day, hoping to improve their standing in the top four.
