It was an entertaining match for Inter and the spectators, but less so for us. We were a bit sloppy when it came to making it 2-1, but Inter were good and strong enough to change the pace. We had chances to score, but in the end, they did, but that's football too.
Massimiliano Allegri commented on Napoli's 3-2 defeat at San Siro against Inter. The Azzurri were two goals up, but in the second half, the Nerazzurri fought back, capped off by a late Lautaro Martinez goal.
The coach doesn't dismiss the team's performance overall: "We need to improve, but our performance and ball control were spot on, and we also created some good chances."
Allegri then urged everyone to stay calm: "We need to stay calm. We're paying for avoidable mistakes, but it's only matchday three and the team will improve."
Napoli must therefore accept this defeat, without ignoring the areas that need fixing: "We have to accept how it went. The lads need to stay calm because they put in a great performance."
The main problem remains our defensive strength, especially in crucial moments: "We need to improve on some things, because when you play certain games, every ball is important and can help you win it."
The figure that most worries the coach is the number of goals conceded in the last two games: "We've conceded five goals in two games and today three in half an hour, but that doesn't mean we have to start defending everyone inside the box."
