VAR continues to spark controversy in Serie A, with the final day of the season highlighting numerous uncorrected refereeing errors. From Genoa's defeat against Napoli, where a foul by DeBruyne on Vasquez was not called, to Inter's goal in Venice, tainted by a foul on Sohm, it proved to be a series of controversial decisions. Lissone referee Orsato supported the competence of his officials, but the lack of on-field review fueled frustration among fans and analysts. The AIA introduced new IFAB rules to streamline the game, but VAR management appears not to have benefited from these changes, leaving the championship in a state of uncertainty.
Meanwhile Juventus suffered a heavy blow with the defeat against Genoa at Marassi, which canceled out the progress made in the previous match against Lecce. The team, already in crisis, is now under scrutiny towards coach Luciano Spalletti, who has been accused of failing to provide a clear identity to the players. Analysis of the team's problems highlights deficiencies in attack, midfield and defence, with key players such as Yildiz, Thuram and Locatelli failing to change the situation. The transfer market has been deemed a failure, and the team remains in a vulnerable position.
Napoli, under the leadership of Massimiliano Allegri, showed a remarkable recovery after a difficult first half in Monza. The team regained their confidence, eliminating the Brianza team and demonstrating that they can return to form. The next match against Juventus in Turin will be crucial: not only to verify the stability of Napoli, but also to give the Neapolitan club the opportunity to definitively eliminate Juventus from the rankings. With the league table already at stake, a negative result for the Bianconeri could mark a turning point for both clubs.
