Inter Milan and Napoli will hand the reins to their assistant coaches for the Serie A final day after toucline meltdowns by Simone Inzaghi and Antonio Conte.
This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan and Napoli are gearing up for a dramatic final day of the season.
The Nerazzurri take on Como this evening. Meanwhile, the Partenopei host Cagliari.
Napoli are a point ahead of Inter at the top of the table. Therefore, if they win their match they will finish the season as champions.
On the other hand, if the Campanian team are to slip up and drop points, then Inter could nip in ahead of them at the top of the table.
Last Sunday, Inter and Napoli both drew, against Lazio and Parma respectively.
Both matches had huge late drama.
Inter conceded a penalty in the closing stages of their match against the Biancocelesti. VAR had awarded the spot kick for a handball by defender Yann Bisseck.
Meanwhile, Napoli thought they had a penalty of their own in Parma. However, VAR ruled out the spot kick due to a foul in the buildup.
Inter coach Simone Inzaghi and his Napoli counterpart Antonio Conte both lost their tempers completely during those late episodes.
Therefore, both coaches received red cards.
As such, both Inzaghi and Conte will serve touchline bans for the final day.
As such, Inzaghi’s lieutenant Massimiliano Farris will take over for this evening’s match against Como. Meanwhile, Conte’s assistant Cristian Stellini will be on the touchline for Napoli.
