The coach half satisfied: “Against Genoa we were lucky, another time we will find ourselves crying bitter tears if we don't stay on track for 95 minutes”
December 21, 2024 (changed at 8.37pm) – MILANO
Antonio Conte can't smile after the three points won in Genoa. “I am very satisfied with the first half, good play and dominated match. At half-time the only thing we said to each other was not to let them back into the game, and instead we did. So a game of dominance became a match in which we encountered various difficulties.” The Napoli coach, who is temporarily back at the top of the table, continues to stress the team's attitude. “The second half must remain imprinted in everyone's brains. I told the players. It is a second time that should not belong to us. Today we were lucky and we bring home the three points, once again we risk crying bitter tears, and I don't want to do that. From these matches, if you are intelligent, you build something.”

Conte is not even happy with the defense of the result. “We must defend by attacking, dominating the game, not because fear takes over. This is the fundamental step to take. If you have a minimum of ambition, you have to stay on track for 95 minutes.” Today Conte celebrated his 150th victory as a coach in Serie A. He doesn't look to the past. “I want to be better than I was the day before. This year we're trying to cause as much trouble as possible with Napoli.”
