SSC Napoli vs US Cremonese

Napoli dismantled Cremonese 4-0 at the Maradona on Friday, postponing Inter's Scudetto party and sending a clear statement in the Serie A title race. The rout was under way inside three minutes, with Scott McTominay drilling home after a precise Kevin De Bruyne lay-off. Terracciano's own goal from a Hojlund shot doubled the lead (45'), and De Bruyne — reaching a milestone of 100 European top-flight goals — finished clinically at 48'. Alisson Santos made it four with a sharp counter-attack strike on 52'. McTominay had taken an accidental facial knock from Bondo midway through the half, played through it, but then had a late penalty saved by Audero in the 83rd. The result lifts Napoli to 69 points in second place, three clear of Milan, forcing Inter to wait at least another round for their title. Cremonese remain 18th on 28 points — a 304-minute goalless run and the spectre of relegation now looming larger by the week.
