Napoli was able to equalize the second goal to give them of of winning or drawing the match if they don't male any mistake that will lead to Fiorentina scoring them the third goal. Napoli was lucky that Belotti foul that was given to Fiorentina when he was bought down inside Napoli box was canceled by the referee, because it was a minor contact.

However, Fiorentina is pressuring to see how they can gain all three points in this match but Napoli will not let that happen. Napoli missed some good chances, and they are suffering for it now. It is 90 minutes and 5 minutes extra time have been added. It is still 2-2.

Everyone seem to be engaged with the news of the sack of Max Allegri that is why no one is paying attention to the bloodless battle between Fiorentina and Napoli, an encounter that will influence who qualify for the conference league next season. The drama in this match is that Napoli, who is playing at away, scored first before at the 8th minutes and everyone was shocked because they have not been doing so great this season. But before the half time, Fiorentina equalized and scored again to make it two goals to one. Second half Napoli opened the scoring again to make the match two goals apiece which the match still stands up to the 80th minutes. This is an interesting match indeed and Napoli played beyond expectations.

It is no longer strange if Napoli lose because they have never won for 5x matches only able to collect 3 points from 5x matches this is a bad season so I don't dare to bet on Napoli because the results will definitely be disappointing.

While Fiorentina to prepare for the Conference League final is still long and they can still win for Serie A matches even though this is not something important, but I feel Fiorentina getting points is important for them to add confidence in the final later.

Edit: Napoli equalize to 2-2 as this match will be interesting.

To be honest, I'm surprised Fiorentina could win in the first half... I don't watch this match, but I thought Napoli would take the three points, because Fiorentina have the final of the Conference League soon... I thought that this match doesn't mean anything for them, because they are in the Conference League zone anyway...

With their last five matches, Juventus couldn't win, they got a draw with their last five matches and maybe that's what looks like Juventus' performance is not good this season, but what they have done is definitely the best because with those who are currently there. even in the top four it's not too bad. The news about Massimiliano Allegri's dismissal from Juventus may indeed be due to Juventus' performance this season being one of the reasons.

Indeed, it feels like this dismissal was too quick, because of course they have to find a replacement and of course they need time to adapt to each other to create chemistry so they can play their best game. However, it is reported that Juventus has made Thiago Motta their prospective coach.

This is indeed news that we could have guessed from the start. that Allegri will sooner or later be fired from Juventus. And well now it's happening and it's actually no longer surprising to anyone. And it seems that Juventus is also reported to have a new coach candidate who will replace Allegri. Many people say that Thiago Motta will become a coach at Juventus. but I haven't traced it for sure. But the news I heard was that Thiago Motta was even offered a 3 year contract there.

And it seems like there are many Juventus fans who actually want Allegri to remain at Juventus. And maybe I actually hope so too. But I also hope that Allegri can prove himself to be a great coach by being at another club. And I hope that another Italian club from Serie A will appoint Allegri as their coach. Because it would be very dramatic if Allegri became the coach of another club in Serie A besides Juventus.

Such a shame it has to end this way for Max Allegri at Juventus. He has made great contribution to the team, took them to Champions Final and won several trophies for the club. If not what I will say is hard luck, he would have won the Champions League.

I know he will feel so bad at this development. We cannot blame the management, who saw his behaviour as crossing the red line. I will only wish him luck in his future endeavor and I feel the best decision for him now is to coach a national team, the same thing I'm expecting from Jose Mourinho. The oil money might come calling though, let's see how it goes.

Juventus' performance this season has not been good as we know. I am also personally not satisfied with Allegri. Even so, I would say it was not the right decision for Juventus to fire Allegri now. I think so.

If management expect title-contending performances from Juventus, I'd say they're living in a state of fools. Juventus do not have a strong squad that will consistently perform well from start to finish of the season. Juventus have scored just 49 goals in 36 matches this season. I don't think it's because of Allegri's bad match strategy. Juventus needed to strengthen their midfield and attack. I believe Juventus' overall performance would have been better if the midfield and forwards were stronger.

That will depend on what the teams will do next season. Inter will need to keep their good players that helped them win the title, and that would not be a simple task to be fair, on top of that I think it is clear that we are going to need other teams to not get better at the same time. If Inter loses some of their good players, and if Milan or some other team get better players, then that means that the gap between the clubs would get closer, and then some other team could win as well.

This is why I think it is clear that we are going to end up with something that will take some time, we should probably not consider this situation to be all that easy for Inter, they need to really try their very best to keep their squad intact.

I don't really know what caused Juventus management to fire their coach, but of course there was a good reason to fire him. Juventus' performance this season is one of the reasons why Massimiliano Allegri was fired, but his fired may have been too quick and very dramatic considering that Massimiliano Allegri had just won Juventus the Italian Cup.

I read some online news to find out the reason for the dismissal, but I didn't find a very big reason other than the Juventus management being unhappy with his behavior after the Italian Cup final. But what is clear to Massimiliano Allegri is that this is a decision that has been announced, so Juventus will find a replacement in the near future.

Now it's official Max Allegri was sacked from his position with Jvuentus after what he did during the Italian Cup final.

His fate was already sealed but now the final decision has been brought forward, let's see if Juventus will be able to save the remaining part of the contract money the coach's behavior against the guidelines.

The defeat experienced by As Roma when facing Atalanta makes their chances of being in the Champions League next season even smaller, because now they have to be 3 points behind, while Atalanta also still has 1 match more than AS Roma, so it will be very difficult AS Roma can finish in the ranking which will take them to the Champions League next season.
The problems don't stop there, because they are also under real threat because they are only 1 point away from Lazio, which requires them to win the remaining 2 matches in Serie A. If they fail in 1 match and Lazio can wipe out the remaining matches then they will also be shifted from 6th position, at the same time it will make them absent from participating in European competitions (European League). This is not an easy situation for them. AS Roma must remain focused in the 2 matches they will play in the remaining Serie A matches this season.

According to news circulating, Juventus fired Allegri early because he was suspected of showing bad behavior towards club management. For the time being, the coaching chair has been temporarily given to Paolo Montero until he finds an official figure to coach the Old Lady next season. Thus ended the speculation regarding Allegri's future.

Juventus seems serious about approaching Thiago Motta but it seems he is still tied to Bologna. Motta is a good coach but Zidane seems more suitable to be Allegri's successor.

The situation of Roma before De Rossi's arrival put them in a situation where they have to fix a bit of loops and come on top. Before now, Mourinho has had the  responsibility to ensure good league game results and I won't blame him much for the times of loss because their opponents, their opponents in some situations have been too title contenders and personally wouldn't embrace a loss based on the goal they have for themselves.

 De Rossi has been given time to show himself. They're playing the league games and as well as the European games, their attention is on 2 trophies, European trophy will be a bit difficult for them and I don't think that currently De Rossi would be able to scale through all the clubs that will be presented to him to face in each advancement phase of the tournament. Even in the Serie A, it'll be difficult for them to gain the top stand so it's just best that they focus their strength and struggle to maintaining a good result that'll see them scale through to the European cups next season.

 De Rossi can still make a great team from Roma. The club is eager to see this man take them to better heights next season. They did well in staying up until the semi finals stage of the UEL and also staying ahead till the last minutes of the game against Leverkusen last week. It wasn't much of a good game for them but it's commendable still so far as they've performed in their season's endeavors.

Juventus and Allegri have confirmed that they will end their partnership at the end of this season, although Allegri managed to lead Juventus to win the Coppa Italia championship this season but indeed it does not change Juventus desire to make changes next season, currently there are several coaches who have indeed been linked with Juventus and reportedly Thiago Motta is a strong candidate to become Juventus coach next season,  Currently there have been rumors that Juventus and Thiago Motta have reached an agreement to work together for 3 seasons, although it is still only a rumour but I think it is very likely that this will happen because of Motta contract which will expire at the end of this season and there seems to be no sign if Thiago Motta will extend his contract with Bologna.

Currently Juventus is one of the right options for Thiago Motta to improve his coaching career and I think when later he can bring Juventus to be even better then it is not impossible Thiago Motta can enter the ranks of the best coaches available today, Thiago Motta can be said to be the most appropriate option for Juventus after his ability to coach Bologna this season,
Zidane?, does anyone still expect him to coach a club, after all the clubs interested in signing him as a coach he has turned down and I think for the time being Zidane still wants to spend his time with his wife, so he no longer has time to go back to coaching a football club .

Lazio might have had a chance to finish in the sixth position if they did not have to play Inter in the next match. Because Roma has been making some mistakes lately. it is very much possible that they will make a mistake in the upcoming matches as well. if Roma actually makes a mistake there is a very good chance for Lazio to actually replace them and get on the sixth position. of course, Lazio will have to win both of the matches as well. But that seems really hard since they are going to play inter in the next match.

I am still giving some chances to Lazio because Inter has already been able to win the title. So now probably they are going to give chances to the players that do not play regularly. if that happens there is a chance that Lazio will be able to win this match. if Lazio is unable to win this match, even if they draw this match I think it is going to be over for Lazio and they will not be able to finish in the sixth position.

Their are different things that can easily affect club performance which is changing of coach and that has been one of the reasons why so many clubs that was doing well before has been performing very poor now, so perhaps just like you said in the case of Napoli their sudden decline is also as a results of what we are saying because we all know that Napoli was a very strong team that was doing well on their other seasons but the moment they change their coach and few of their players that's the time their difficulties in inperformance started.

I also agree that if Inter Milan still work with their coach they will surely be more impressive next season because their coach has been doing a good job for them especially on this season because even the Inter Milan team management could not believe the club will go this far, so actually for them to remain consistent is only by maintaining their coach because getting another coach will surely bring down the performance of Inter Milan because it will take them a lot of time to get use to the play pattern of the new one.

But it seems, there is still no info related to Thiago Motta's contract at Bologna because after all, Thiago Motta's contract also ends at the end of this season but there seems to be no certainty whether Bologna will extend Thiago Motta's contract or will actually release him when there are good offers from other top teams. But indeed, at least there are still names of top coaches also being linked to replace Allegri but I think, Thiago Motta and Conte are the top choices. Because anyway, even though Zidane is a Juventus player legend too but it seems like Zidane is only interested in choaching Real Madrid and not for other teams, it's unfortunate of course because many offers to Zidane but Zidane still refused.

Juventus had announced about sacked Allegri as manager at the end this season on their social media account, I think fail reach the top standings position and inconsistency performed of Juventus at second half season make clearly why Allegri have sacked as Juventus manager for next season. Indeed just few days ago won Copa Italia can't helped more for Allegri keep get extending contract with Juventus and management announced will sign Thiago Motta with three years contract.

Before leaving Juventus, Allegri has two matches in domestic league and he must giving three points as last match for him become Juventus manager. I think against Bologna and Monza is most important for Juventus get back the 3rd standings position and give good memorize for Allegri before leaving his position.

I no longer have any hope for Napoli since their failure in the last few matches and instead of them chasing a place in the conference league, it would be better for them to start thinking about how to organize their performance again like last season when they became champions. There is nothing they can be proud of this season other than their endless failures.

On the other hand, I would favor Fiorentina who will get a place in the conference league considering that this is their daily routine and they are also preparing to play the final match of this season's conference league which will take place soon. So Fiorentina's motivation is much more pronounced than what Napoli currently has.
