In a make-up match in the 25th round of Serie A, Simeone Inzaghi as head coach, Lazio failed to defeat Turin, and the two sides drew 0-0. As a result, Filippo Inzaghi as head coach of Benevento was relegated.
Before the match, Benevento had accumulated 32 points with a record of 7 wins, 11 draws and 19 losses, ranking third from the bottom of Serie A, and only 3 points away from Turin, which ranked 17th in Serie A. Benevento will face Turin directly in serie A round 38 and the two sides will shake hands 2-2 in serie A round 19. That is to say, if Lazio can beat Turin in this game, then Benevento will be able to take the initiative of relegation in his own hands, and they only need to defeat Turin in the battle of the relegation of the King's Mountain to successfully relegate.
In the 37th round of Serie A, Benevento was forced to draw 1-1 by Crotone, who had previously been relegated. Filippo Inzaghi said in a post-match interview that he would cheer for Lazio and hope to keep the suspense to the last round. Before the game, many media also paid attention to whether Simeone Inzaghi could play an important role in his brother's relegation career. But as Mobile conceded a penalty in the 84th minute of the match, making all assumptions no longer existing, Benevento was determined to become the third team in Serie A to be relegated this season.
