Juventus hosted SSC Napoli at the Allianz Stadium as the battle for the Sierra A title and top three continues.. Juventus who re currently the defending champions of the Sierra title have lifted the trophy for five straight times now, without any good challenger and are still looking for more.
The Italian giants were knocked out at the round of sixteen by fc Porto and are now doing everything possible to retain and defend the Sierra title again.

Napoli fought well though, with Lorenzo Insigne scoring from the penalty spot after Juve defender Giorgio Chiellini was penalized for Tripping Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.
Juventus had 3 shots on target and 6 shots off target with a 49% ball possession while Napoli had 4 shots on target and 6 shots off target with a 51% ball possession.
With this result, Juventus are on third position with 59 points while Napoli are in fifth position with 56 points.

Jeremiah Akpabio 2dThe gap between Juventus and Inter Milan is so wide and I don't think Juventus may be able to bridge the gap. All they need do now is to make sure there too 4. Ronaldo has helped them a lot and the young man is not showing any sign of slowing down.

Mfoniso Michael 2dHow many points are left for them to close up with the current team on the top of the table?
Do you think they'll make it?
Meanwhile It was a good display last night. I don't quite like Pirlo's style and line up.

Ifiok Eso 1dSmiles... Inter have 71 points as leaders, Juventus have 59 points, I.e 12 points clear. Well in football, there is always a saying that it is not over until it is over..
