Conte after Napoli-Atalanta: “They are stronger than us”

November 3 – 3.35pm – NAPOLI

Antonio Conte logically chews bitterly after the 0-3 against Atalanta, but rightly, as he wasn’t exalted until yesterday, he isn’t depressed now. Indeed, try to instill confidence and courage in the Italian team and its environment because Napoli are doing excellent things so far. “I think the team performed in the right way, certainly in certain episodes, and especially in the goals conceded, we could have done a little better but I can’t blame the boys for anything in terms of commitment and desire. The statistics are very balanced, in terms of energy we put everything we had into play.”

Well done

The analysis of the match was very honest, as were the compliments to the opponents very sincere: “The obstacle was very high and we beat ourselves. We met a team that at the moment in my opinion is stronger than us, I said it the day before, because they have been making an important journey with the same coach for many years and are therefore ahead of Napoli. Congratulations to them, there is no shame in seeing Atalanta as a point of reference, patience and the desire to work are possible create something similar and who knows maybe one day we will become stronger than them.” Conte tried to challenge Atalanta on their own ground, but “there was a lack of precision in the last pass or in front of the goal – said the Napoli coach -. We developed several actions without finishing well and playing manly We put them in difficulty when it comes to man, but sometimes they were able to overcome it by demonstrating that they were surgical in front of goal. In those circumstances, I repeat, we could have had different readings but the chatter is zero.

“I don’t cry”

Closing dedicated to a broader look at the future of Napoli: “The fan must know that when I speak I don’t do it to cry or joke, I always say what I think: we are here to try to build, or rather rebuild, a situation by laying the foundations solid, and a good start to the season cannot change things. We need calm and patience, this team with Osimhen and Zielinski finished tenth last year even though they won the championship two years ago. We must not be discouraged, we also need jokes arrest like today’s and accept the defeat as sportsmen, we will continue our journey without excesses, with balance and realism. Now we will face Inter, who in my opinion are even ahead of Atalanta but we want to compete because we were not. phenomena before and we are no less phenomena now”.
