Matchday 35 of Serie A delivered high stakes and tight results as both the title race and relegation fight remained wide open with just three games left. Napoli continued their push for the Scudetto with a narrow but vital 1-0 victory away at Lecce, secured by a beautifully taken free kick from Giacomo Raspadori. The match was hard-fought, but the league leaders walked away with all three points, piling pressure on Inter ahead of their evening match.
Inter responded promptly, edging Hellas Verona 1-0 at San Siro thanks to a decisive penalty converted by Kristjan Asllani. The result brings the Nerazzurri back within three points of Napoli, keeping their title hopes very much alive with three matches to go.
Meanwhile, in Turin, the clash between Torino and Venezia ended in a 1-1 draw. Kike Perez gave the visitors the lead in the first half, but the hosts equalized through a second-half penalty by Vlasic. The match was played on an emotional note, as Torino paid tribute at halftime to the Grande Torino, just two days before the anniversary of the Superga tragedy. The draw extends Torino’s unbeaten home run in 2025, while for Venezia it marks another missed opportunity in the relegation battle — with crucial matches still to come for Lecce and Empoli.
