Napoli returned to the throne after 33 years

Newsroom May 5 01:54

The aura of the stand of the “Diego Maradona” stadium was transferred to a church in Naples, where the priest together with the faithful shouted the slogan of the Napoli after the team won the Italian title after 33 years.

The Neapolitans are in a state of intoxication in the last few hours thanks to the return of Napoli to the throne of Italian football. The Partenopei mathematically sealed the Scudetto after the 1-1 draw against Udinese and from Thursday night (4/5) their fans indulged in wild celebrations, with the “madness” even reaching the churches.
