Napoli responds to the Champions League defeat against PSV in the best possible way. Antonio Conte's men defeated Chivu's team with a solid performance, particularly in the second half, managing to go two goals ahead twice, even after Calhanoglu's 2-1 goal from a penalty caused by Alessandro Buongiorno, who spoke at the press conference after the match.

Napoli-Inter, Buongiorno's words at the press conference

Tonight, Napoli won the big match at the Maradona against Christian Chivu's Inter. Among the protagonists of the game is Alessandro Buongiorno, who played an excellent match despite the responsibility for the penalty awarded to Inter. The former Torino defender spoke at the press conference at the end of Napoli-Inter. Here are his words:

“I believe everyone knows that to continue like this, we must work at our best and always stay focused. To do this, the group must always be united and cohesive. We had a great mentality in both halves. In the second half, we managed the ball better and conceded less. We are on the right track.”

The response after the Champions defeat

“We needed to find ourselves again. Everyone had to sacrifice for their teammate, which we lacked in the last game. I believe today was a test because we could have crumbled, but we showed that by staying united, we can win matches like these.”

On his performance

“I'm feeling better and better. We need to manage the playing time with the coach because I returned after several months and then got injured against Pisa. We need to be smart now in managing the playing time, but I feel good and continue to work with the staff.”

On the defensive relationship with Juan Jesus

“I get along well with everyone. The difference is made by the communication on the field. We defenders try to communicate as much as possible to help each other.”

On performance at the Maradona and away

“The support of the fans at the Maradona is felt, both for us and against the opponents. Playing here is wonderful.”

On the word Scudetto

“We focus on working and improving match by match.”
