NAPLES – It is a visibly disappointed Antonio Conte who appears before the microphones after the 2-2 home draw against Genoa, a result that risks compromising the dream of the Scudetto. The Napoli coach does not make a fuss, but does not hide his frustration: "They had two shots on target and two goals, sometimes this happens too. It's a shame because it was a match that should have been won for everything we produced. There is bitterness, especially with three days to go".
The team's performance, however, is not in question. Conte underlines the commitment of his players, while recognizing the need for greater concreteness in key moments: "I had put Billing on precisely to avoid certain episodes, but in the end we drew. I cannot reproach the team for anything regarding their attitude, but we must improve. Unfortunately we lost the bonus: now we just have to win".

The draw leaves Napoli just one point behind Inter, who now sense a draw. And the difficulties multiply, also due to injuries: "Today we lost another piece, Lobotka. We will look for solutions, but if in the end the others are better, congratulations to them".
Conte reiterates the exceptional nature of the Azzurri's path: "The Scudetto would be something incredible, no one imagined it. These guys are going beyond their limits. Even today we gave it our all, but sometimes the details decide everything". Now there is no more room for error: to dream, you need two victories and a pinch of destiny.

The match against Genoa was disappointing, but I don't think the team played badly. Sometimes it happens that we concede goals even without deserving it, but we have to be careful and improve in the defensive phase.
