Napoli won their second Serie A title in three seasons and fourth in club history with their 2-0 win over Cagliari on Friday, finishing one point ahead of Inter Milan. Antonio Conte became the first manager to win Serie A with three separate clubs after previously leading Inter Milan and Juventus. 

\"Everyone contributed to this -- but the coach most of all,\" Napoli captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo said. \"Napoli needed him to get back on top. He\'s phenomenal.\"

\"It happened again, and it\'s something wonderful,\" Conte said. \"When we got to the stadium, it was honestly difficult to get in, as I don\'t know how many people were there.

\"I had a slight thought, if we let these people down, it\'d be something we carried with us for a long time.\"

Scott McTominay went into the air to redirect a cross from Matteo Politano in the 42nd minute for his 12th goal this season after transferring from Manchester United to give Napoli a 1-0 lead. Romelu Lukaku then scored in the 51st minute for his 14th goal of the season to give Napoli a 2-0 lead.
