NAPLES, ITALY – A late goal from substitute Philip Billing salvaged a 1-1 draw for Napoli against Serie A leaders Inter Milan in a thrilling encounter at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium on Saturday. The result leaves Napoli just one point behind Inter in the title race.
Federico Dimarco gave Inter the lead in the 22nd minute with a stunning free-kick that beat Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret. However, Napoli pushed relentlessly for an equalizer, with several near misses from Romelu Lukaku and Giacomo Raspadori.
Despite dominating possession for much of the second half, Napoli’s efforts seemed to be in vain until the 87th minute. January loan signing Billing, making a significant impact off the bench, scored his first goal for the club, converting a rebound after his initial shot was saved by Inter’s goalkeeper.
The draw keeps the title race incredibly tight. Inter remain top with 58 points, one ahead of Napoli (57), with Atalanta a further two points behind after their 0-0 draw with Venezia. Napoli will be hoping to build on this late-game heroics as the season heads towards its climax.
