Newly-crowned champions Napoli secured a 1-0 win over Fiorentina in Serie A on Sunday when the league's top scorer Victor Osimhen scored from the spot at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
Osimhen could have put a relaxed Napoli in front from a penalty three minutes into the second half but Fiorentina keeper Pietro Terracciano saved his weak shot.
The Nigerian striker got a chance to redeem himself when winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia won another penalty for Napoli in the 74th minute and Osimhen put the ball past Terracciano with a much stronger shot.
Fiorentina, who host FC Basel in the first leg of their Europa Conference League semi-final on Thursday, remain eighth on 46 points, 12 points behind AS Roma in seventh and Atalanta in sixth with four games left in the season.
Napoli wrapped up their first league title in 33 years on Thursday when a 1-1 draw at Udinese put them out of reach of their rivals for the Scudetto

🇮🇹 In Naples, There is a mural with the figure of Maradona. On his face, there is a window that opens only when Napoli are champion of Serie A. Naple's people opened it in 1987 & 1990 after winning Scudetto and it had been closed since 1990. It was said that they will open this window only if they win the Scudetto. But an exception to this happened in 2022 after Argentina won the World Cup in Qatar. Because of so much love and gratitude towards Argentinians, they opened the window and celebrated Argentina's World Cup. Maradona and the people of Naples are shining examples of how much love football can bring to people. Italy does not get a chance in the World Cup. And they celebrate Argentina winning the World Cup. That's pure love & their passion to the Football God.❤️ Yesterday, that window opened again. Napoli are Calcio champion after 33 years 🎊
