Yahoo Sports

ROME (AP) — Defending champion Napoli was held to a 0-0 draw at Champions League-chasing Como on Saturday — a result that could help Inter Milan clinch the Serie A title. Napoli narrowly missed two late chances, first with Scott McTominay’s effort going wide and then with Matteo Politano hitting the post. Second-place Napoli was left nine points behind Inter, which hosts Parma on Sunday.

Only three rounds remain after this weekend. Fifth-place Como was left two points behind fourth-place Juventus, which hosts Hellas Verona on Sunday. The top four finishers qualify for the Champions League.

Earlier, Udinese beat Torino 2-0 with goals from Kingsley Ehizibue and Thomas Kristensen. Later, Atalanta was hosting Genoa. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.
