The success of the Naples against Turin leaves satisfied Antonio Conte, even if the Italian coach didn't like the end of the match completely. After the final whistle at Maradona Stadium, the coach analyzed the match to Dazn microphones, underlining his team's dominance but also some avoidable risks in the final minutes.
"We dominated a match that, so to speak, made things difficult for ourselves at the end. I'm definitely very pleased with the boys' performance; they were three important points against a good team," said the coach, acknowledging the opponent's caliber but highlighting Napoli's performance above all.
Conte then spoke about the important returns that are gradually restoring depth to the Azzurri squad. He was referring in particular to Kevin de bruyne e Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa, back available after a long period of absence, together with other key elements of the group.
"It seems like they're not gone, but gone. We haven't seen each other again for many months, those two, Lukaku, and other players. But the strength of this group is that we've never looked for excuses for absences, and by doing so, we've won a Super Cup and consistently remained at the top of the table, which wasn't a given at all," the coach explained.
Alisson Santos, who scored the opening goal, was also among the evening's key players. Conte praised the young striker, emphasizing his growth within the team's mechanisms. "He's a boy who's getting into the swing of things, we need to try to get him into his preferred areas of the pitch. He has great pace, and what I ask of him is not to be timid, and today he wasn't." The Italian coach concluded by encouraging players to look ahead, maintaining a high level of focus on the development of the younger players and the contribution of the entire group. "We're pleased and we're also looking forward to Giovane's progress," he concluded.




The game was well-played; Napoli dominated, but then there was too much confusion at the end. Conte seems satisfied, but we didn't entirely appreciate it. DeBruyne and Zambo's returns were important, but we couldn't quite understand their movements. Alisson scored, but the defense forgot to mark him.
