Serie A: Conte's Napoli Beat Venezia 1-0

Napoli went through three different coaches during its Serie A title defense last season and ended the campaign in 10th place. Antonio Conte was hired in July and now Napoli is ending 2024 level with Atalanta atop the Italian league again. Substitute Giacomo Raspadori scored a late goal and Napoli beat relegation-threatened Venezia 1-0 on Sunday in its final match of the year. Atalanta drew 1-1 at Lazio on Saturday and Inter won 3-0 at Cagliari.
