Serie A has delivered right to the end of another fantastic season. There was plenty at stake as the campaign came to an end, with tears of joy, pride and despair.
The Italian league has been alive, week after week, with great games for football betting fans to enjoy, and this final round was no exception. Gianluigi Buffon signed off his Juventus career with another victory, as the Bianconeri saw off relegated Hellas Verona. SPAL escaped the drop with a resounding win, and in today’s big game, there was live betting chaos as Inter grabbed the last Champions League place in a pulsating win over rivals Lazio, with two late goals.
There was bedlam in Rome as Inter came from behind twice to beat Lazio 2-3 in the winner-takes-all finale. Lazio just needed a draw, and with 15 minutes to go were cruising… and then all hell let loose. Mauro Icardi levelled for Inter with a penalty and then Matias Vecino headed a dramatic winner. Lazio fans stared in disbelief as they finished with nine men, Senad Lulic and Patric seeing red as their dream turned to a nightmare.
Countless teary eyed fans in Turin stood to acclaim their hero as the best goalkeeper in modern history, Buffon, waved farewell as champions Juventus beat relegated Hellas Verona 2-1 thanks to goals from Daniele Rugani and Miralem Pjanic. Alessio Cerci pulled one back for Verona after Buffon had left the field to an emotional ovation.
SPAL has won another season in the top flight after a priceless brace from Mirco Antenucci inspired them to a 3-1 win over Sampdoria, which means Crotone fell through the trap door following a 2-1 defeat to second placed Napoli. Cagliari finished with a victory 1-0 over Alatanta to guarantee survival, while the visitors have qualified for Europa League football.
Elsewhere, on the final day, there were wins for Roma, Milan, Torino, Chievo and Udinese. But the weekend, and the cheers and tears of joy belong to Inter, SPAL and….
The great Gianluigi Buffon.
