“Yesterday I saw Inter play like provincial minnows, sitting back and counter-attacking,” Empoli director Marcello Carli told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“We played well, but could’ve done even better. There were a couple of unlucky incidents and I don’t think the penalty was anything other than bad luck, because I consider Celi a good referee, but he did make evident mistakes.”

The top four teams are crammed within a three-point radius, as Inter are chased by Napoli, Fiorentina and Juventus.

“This is an extraordinary Serie A campaign with four teams who have very different characteristics are all doing so well. The Scudetto will be decided by one or two points, so in these cases a single incident can become decisive.”
