- Inter recovered from two goals down to beat Como 4-3, moving nine points clear with six matches remaining.
- Napoli had nearly 75% possession and 20 shots against Parma, but drew 1-1 after McTominay’s equaliser.
- McTominay has scored eight goals from midfield this season, including two in January’s 2-2 draw at Inter.
- Conte’s future remains uncertain amid reports linking him with Italy’s national team, although he said he had never declared himself available.
No [Frank] Anguissa, no [Romelu] Lukaku, no [Billy] Gilmour, no [Kevin] De Bruyne, no [Amir] Rrahmani at the start of the season. [David] Neres injured. I mean, if Inter Milan had no [Marcus] Thuram, no [Lautaro] Martínez, no [Nicolò] Barella, no [Hakan] Çalhanoğlu, that’s difficult.— Scott McTominay, in a memorable interview after Napoli’s draw with Inter earlier this year
