👉 Hello, my friends. Here are the 2022-2023 Italian Serie A Week 36 RESULTS / Thirty-fifth Round on Friday 19, Saturday 20, Sunday 21, and Monday 22 May 2023
A sour news for Juventus after the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) court issued Juventus a new ruling on Monday 22 May were docked 10 points for the current Serie A season in a case centered on the club’s transfer dealings. After a 4-1 defeat at Empoli on Monday, leaving Juve with two matches to play this season, the deduction sees Juventus going down from second to seventh place in the top-flight standings on 59 points. On the other hand, non-guilty verdicts for seven ex-Juventus executives, including Czech former vice-chairman and midfield player Pavel Nedved.
✅ Here is the situation: 👉🏆🇮🇹 Napoli won the 2022-23 Serie A Scudetto on Thursday 4 May 2023 after the 1-1 draw with Udinese.
Verdict – Relegation. After 11 seasons in Serie A, Sampdoria is arithmetically relegated to Serie B 2023-24 after losing the Serie A Week 34 against Udinese.
Cremonese will return to Serie B next season after 17th-placed Spezia drew at Lecce on Sunday, sealing their relegation with two games remaining in the season. Spezia reached 31 points. Mathematically speaking, Cremonese in the 19th place with 24 points, can no longer leapfrog them for safety.
Verdict – Promotion: Two Serie B teams are already promoted to the Serie A 2023-24: Frosinone and Genoa.

Napoli continue celebrating the Scudetto by winning the Serie A Week 36 game defeating Inter on Sunday 21 May 2023 at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples, Italy. Napoli find success against 19 different opponents in the course of a single season for the first time in their history in Serie A (there are currently 18, as in 2015/16 and 2018 /19). Napoli returns to victory after the defeat at Monza and climbs to 86 points in the standings. Inter, on the other hand, suffer defeat after eight consecutive wins in all competitions and now risk being overtaken into third place by Lazio, on the pitch tonight at the Dacia Arena against Udinese. The Nerazzurri are two points ahead of fifth-placed Milan, with as many matches remaining in the championship.
Everything happens at Maradona in the last 23 minutes of the game plus recovery. In the 41st minute, Napoli found themselves in numerical superiority, thanks to the expulsion remedied for a second yellow card by Roberto Gagliardini. In the second half, the hosts immediately looked for the opening goal through Di Lorenzo and Kvaratskhelia, but this only arrived in the 67th minute, when Zielinski made a hole for Anguissa, who turned the goal around for 1-0. Inter found an unexpected draw with Romelu Lukaku, who took advantage of Dimarco’s low cross and pushed the ball into goal to make it 1-1. In the 85th minute, however, Di Lorenzo brought his team forward with a splendid left-footed shot from 20 metres. In full stoppage time, in the 94th minute, there was also room for Gaetano’s first goal in Serie A, who fixed the result at 3-1 on the counterattack.
Napoli took the lead in the 67th minute. André-Frank Zambo Anguissa defeated Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana with a right-footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Piotr Zielinski.
