Napoli will have to wait for their first Serie A title in 33 years after being held to a draw by Salernitana at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.<\/p>\n
They last won the league in 1990 with a Diego Maradona-inspired side adding to their first title three years earlier.<\/p>\n
Luciano Spalletti\u2019s side was on course for the victory they needed when Mathias Olivera headed home a 62nd-minute corner.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But Boulaye Dia equalised with a left-footed drive six minutes from time.<\/p>\n
It silenced an expectant crowd who made a cacophony of noise and set off blue smoke flares inside and outside the stadium, where thousands of fans lined the streets when Napoli went ahead.<\/p>\n
Despite the disappointment, Spalletti\u2019s side are almost certain to win the title, with just two points needed from their final six games to secure a third Serie A crown \u2013 and first without talisman Maradona.<\/p>\n
Without the Argentina forward at the club, Napoli have only won five Italian Cups in 89 years.<\/p>\n
Their next chance to secure the title will come when they travel to Udinese on Thursday (19:45 BST), but they could also win it before then if results go their way.<\/p>\n
Second-placed Lazio, who are 18 points behind, must beat Sassuolo on Wednesday (20:00 BST), while Juventus, who are 20 points back in third with a game in hand, must win later on Sunday (19:45 BST) and on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
