Newly crowned Serie A champions Inter Milan beat 10-man Torino thanks to a double from Hakan Calhanoglu.

Adrien Tameze was sent off for the denial of a goalscoring opportunity, fouling Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Inter registered their 20th clean sheet of the season, equalled the club’s league record.

Napoli were held to a 2-2 draw by Roma at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona as England forward Tammy Abraham scored an 88th-minute equaliser.

It was the striker’s first goal since 29 April last year, with Abraham having only returned from a cruciate knee ligament injury earlier this month.

The result leaves Roma four points behind Bologna in their quest for a top-four place, with four games remaining.

Second-placed Milan played out a goalless draw with Juventuswho are five points behind them in the table.

Former Italy defender Fabio Cannavaro took charge of his first full match since being appointed Udinese manager until the end of the season.
