Napoli are Serie A champions after 33 years-What happened?
Luciano Spalleti’s side failed to win this year Serie A 2022/3 at the Maradona stadium last week due to the drew with Salernitana.
But the Naples side did not repeat the mistake at Udinese, as they clinch their third Serie A title in their history and also the first one after the legendary Diego Maradona era.
Sandi Lovric worried Napoli’s fans with his clinical finish from inside the penalty area on 13 minutes as the visitors were upset.
But then Napoli’s top scorer and talisman this Osimhen brought them back to life when the Nigerian striker scored after half-time with his calm finish that sparked celebrations among traveling supporters from Naples.
The scene was absolutely wild as the referee blew the final whistle. It’s the first time a club south of Italy’s traditional soccer capitals of Milan and Turin has won the league since Roma claimed the title in 2001.
Osimhen – the man of the season of Napoli
The man of the show, Osimhen express his excitement after being the hero for the whole season round:
“I’m happy for all Napoli fans worldwide,” Osimhen said.
“No one deserves the Scudetto more than Neapolitans — more than us. I don’t care who scored, I just wanted to get the Scudetto.”
“I want to enjoy this moment for the rest of my life. Then after the season my other dreams can come,” Osimhen continued. “But for now it’s not a time to talk about my other dreams. I wanted to win this.”
“Napoli, this is for you,” coach Spalletti said. ”There are people here who will be able to get through difficult moments in their lives because they remember this moment. These people deserve all the joy.”
It had to be him, Victor Osimhen, who scored 27 goals for his side this season in all competitions and 22 league goals, and also the one who won them the title.
Osimhen went down in history as he has scored more Serie A goals this season than any African player has ever managed in an Italian top-flight campaign.
Scene as Napoli won the league
The party was all the way from The Stadio Friuli to Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples.
More than 50,000 fans watched the game live on big screen and joined together to celebrate the monumental victory.
“You always told me, ‘We want to win,’ and now we’ve won. We’ve won all together,” the Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis told the crowd before he embraced the Naples Mayor Gaetano.
Fireworks could be seen all over the Neapolitan sky as soon as the game was over, and it’s beautiful while spectacular to witness such a night.
