Thus, a few days after the mathematical assurance of the 3rd title in the history of the club, with a draw (1-1) in Udine, the "partenopei" were deified by the people who flooded the historic stadium, but also by the entire city of southern Italy , which has long been living and moving to the rhythm of Luciano Spalletti's team.

He also received recognition from the opposition, with Fiorentina players lining up and applauding the champions as they entered the pitch. The Spanish pasillo enters the age of globalization...

Like Vesuvius erupting

At the same time, life in the old apartment buildings of Naples is cheap and people live in frozen buildings that seem stuck to each other, tall buildings with a view of the sky and Vesuvius, with balconies and terraces where students and the elderly spend the their time gazing at the city, smoking and talking.

The conversations are monopolized by eternal love, the capsule that never stopped touching the limits of madness, the one passed from generation to generation, Napoli. Fathers, uncles, grandfathers miss the team of Maradona, Careca, Alemao, that set of Alberto Bigon that... spewed fire and lava. The new generation listens, dreams that the ground will begin to shake again, that "Vesuvius" will explode. And yet, after 33 years, Naples, the city of Diego Maradona, is living moments it had forgotten.

With the match as such, few were concerned, as well as the "violas", apart from being uninterested in points, have turned their attention to the semi-finals of the UEFA Europa League with Basel and the final of the Italian Cup against Inter. Napoli got the win thanks to Victor Oshimene's 23rd goal, with the Nigerian having... 50% in penalties. In the 48th minute he was beaten by the goalkeeper Teracciono, but in the 74th minute he found the target in his second chance and gave the victory to his team.

47 goals for Oshimen

Meanwhile Nigerian international center forward Victor Oshimen who scored against Fiorentina took his total to 47 goals in Serie A. He overtook Liberian George Weah to become the top African goalscorer in the history of the Italian league.

Spalletti: The "architect" of Napoli lives in the place where he was adored. In the press conference that followed the victory over Fiorentina, Luciano Spalletti confirmed that the club had activated the renewal option in his contract and the pair would be together for at least one more season until the summer of 2024.

“I am grateful to the team as they have activated the option to renew my contract until June 2024".
