“Someone tried to create something that bothered me a lot. The fact of being told that the VAR cannot intervene on a non-existent penalty because it is up to the referee. If there is the VAR, which can be of help if used with honesty, must intervene. A protocol is being created that creates conspiracy. If there is a mistake you must intervene and correct it.” Napoli coach Antonio Conte said this during his press conference after the draw against Inter.
“It creates conspiracy theories, bad thoughts and I don’t want to have any.
I want intellectual honesty, both for and against. I’m feeling this a bit and I’m starting to feel dizzy. I’m not angry about the decision, but being told that he can’t intervene I perceive it as a mockery. I don’t speak for myself but for all the coaches. We want honest things. Who made this protocol? We are all pissed off because of these doubts which still create conspiracy theories.
I want to stay calm on the bench, otherwise I’m booked.” Then, as he left the press room and addressed the journalists, he added: “Sorry but I’m pissed off, I’ve had him here for a while.”
