Conte didn't speak after Inter-Napoli, assistant Stellini: "Penalty? Let's move on and focus on the performance."

Antonio Conte chose to remain silent after the 2-2 draw at San Siro, leaving the floor to Cristian Stellini. The Napoli coach, sent off for protesting after Inter's penalty, did not appear before the microphones after the match, a decision that didn't surprise his coaching staff. “Even in the past, after being expelled, he decided not to come.”

The one speaking is the assistant coach, who immediately sets the scope of the analysis. "The penalty incident? I'd just move on, not dwell on it, especially since we've had a tough week in that regard." No desire to fuel controversy. “It's better to move on and think about the excellent performance even after the penalty, which gives us great confidence and great strength.”

Stellini praises Napoli's performance on the pitch against the top-seeded team. “We have a team that, on a difficult pitch against the top-seeded team, proved they are worthy of the title they won last year.” The reference to rigor remains deliberately vague. “We haven't seen the episode and we won't comment on it, also because we would have to rewind the tape and there's no desire to do so.”

Stellini: "Turning back Inter twice at San Siro isn't easy."

The focus remains on the pitch and the team's response. “There is great satisfaction with the reaction after the penalty.” A reaction that tells the state of the team. “Napoli are in excellent form from a physical point of view.” Even difficulties are faced without excuses. “We don't have much rotation, we'd like to have more, we just need to be a little more patient.”

The draw at San Siro is seen as a strong signal. “Coming back against Inter twice at San Siro isn't easy.” And the final verdict is clear. "I think the team fully deserved the draw. We're very satisfied with the character and quality of our play."
