Conte’s team leads Serie A, but is only one point ahead of the next four.
Inter tied with Napoli in the home match of the 12th round Italian Championship.
Antonio Conte’s men, the ex-Inter coach, took the lead midway through the first half through the efforts of Scott McTominay, who took advantage of Amir Rrahmani’s pass. The Nerazzurri pulled back before the break thanks to Hakan Calhanoglu’s spectacular strike from outside the area.
In the second half of the match, Inter had an excellent opportunity to score the second goal, but Calhanoglu missed the penalty. The midfielder’s shot hit the post. As a result, the game is a draw – 1:1.
Napoli alone leads Serie A, one point ahead of the closest four pursuers (Atalanta, Fiorentina, Inter and Lazio) and two points ahead of Juventus.
In the next round, Napoli will host Artem Dovbik’s Roma on November 24. Inter will play away against Verona on November 23.
