In the second half, there was no shortage of opportunities on both sides but the hosts lacked the concreteness to find an equalizer and were punished in the final by the sixth league goal from the Brazilian winger.

👉 Hello, my friends. Here are the 2022-2023 Italian Serie A Week 31 RESULTS / Thirty-first Round on Friday 21, Saturday 22, Sunday 23, and Monday 24 April 2023. Napoli remain the sole leader with 78 points. Mathematically speaking, Napoli could collect the Scudetto next week!!!!!!! Yes, here is how: If Inter beat or draw with Lazio next weekend while Napoli defeat Salernitana, Napoli will have won the Serie A title. Simple as 1+1. Napoli have a +17 lead over Lazio in the 2nd place with 61 points.
Note: On Thursday 20 April 2023, the Sports Court within the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI) ruled that the punishment against Juve must be reevaluated and as such, the 15-point penalty was suspended. In sum, three months after Juventus lost 15 points, Juventus got its 15 points back. Therefore, Juventus, who were in the 7th position climbed to the 3rd position after recovering their 15 points reaching 59 points.
Napoli have won both of their seasonal matches against Juventus in Serie A for the fourth time in their history, having previously succeeded in 2009/10, 1986/87 and 1957/58. Giacomo Raspadori’s goal (92` 48″) is the latest goal scored by a Napoli player against Juventus in Serie A since Opta collects this type of data (since 2004/05).
In 2023, only Roma (21) have won more points at home than Verona (17) in Serie A TIM. Simone Verdi’s penalty goal is the first from the penalty spot by a Verona player in Serie A TIM since the one scored by Gianluca Caprari against Spezia on 6 March 2022.
Salernitana remained unbeaten in eight straight games for the first time in their history in Serie A (W2, D6). Boulaye Dia (11 goals) is one of only two Salernitana players to have scored more than 10 goals in a single Serie A season, alongside Marco Di Vaio (12 in 1998/99).
Torino went unbeaten at the Olimpico for three consecutive matches (W1, D2) for the first time in the era of three points for a win in Serie A. Torino beat Lazio in Serie A TIM for the first time since 26 May 2019, ending a run of seven consecutive matches without success with the biancocelesti in the tournament (D4, L3).
Bruno Amione scored his first goal in Serie A TIM today in 21 appearances in the top flight: 20 of these, the Argentinian played with Sampdoria in this tournament.
Romelu Lukaku hadn’t found a goal from open play in Serie A TIM since 13 August against Lecce, 253 days have passed since then. Lautaro Martínez became the first Inter player to score at least 15 goals in three or more consecutive seasons in Serie A TIM since Mauro Icardi, between 2014/15 and 2017/18 (four in that case).
It was since 22 May 2022 against Salernitana that Udinese failed to score three goals in a Serie A TIM first half.
Isaac Success managed to score with his 35th shot made this season.
It was 18 April 2018 that Fiorentina hadn’t lost a match in Serie A from a two-goal lead, at home against Lazio (3-4).
Michele Di Gregorio’s is the 4th assist provided by a goalkeeper in this Serie A: since Opta collected this data (2004/05), only in 2020/21 have there been more winning passes by full backs (5) in one single season of the tournament.
