All the talk pre-game was based around the future of Luciano Spalletti with rumours circulating that the title winner will leave this summer.

But he was hoping to block out all of that noise as the Partenopei travelled to Bologna for their final away game of the season.

Napoli got off to the perfect start as Victor Osimhen pounced on a shocking goalkeeping error and tapped the ball in from eight yards.

The hosts had a great chance to level things up just before the break however Michel Aebischer sent his shot, from the edge of the area, wide.

Into the second half and Osimhen got his 25th goal of the campaign as he was played in and swept home emphatically.

Completely against the run of play however, Bologna got a goal back as Lewis Ferguson ghosted in at the back post and tapped home.

The hosts had their tails up now and got themselves an equaliser with six minutes to go as Lorenzo De Silvestri headed in from close range.

With the very last kick of the game it looked as if Bologna had netted a winner but Nicola Sansone was adjudged to have been offside.
