Napoli v Inter: Hernanes on the match, "For me, that's not a penalty" | OneFootball

Hernanes: “I saw a different Inter, lacking the usual aggression. Napoli had more grit”. After the match between Napoli and Inter, which ended with the victory of the azzurri thanks to De Bruyne's penalty, former Inter midfielder Hernanes spoke to DAZN microphones, analyzing Conte's team's performance: “I saw a different approach compared to the usual Inter. I saw an Inter that wants to win with beauty, but in these Scudetto matches, you can't go to Maradona and play below the level in terms of aggression and desire to win. The usual intensity of Inter was not seen. It can be understood, because Inter came from many victories and continuing like this mentally is very difficult.”

The "Prophet" then praised Napoli's attitude, coming off a heavy defeat in European competition: “Napoli had the grit and showed that it's true: it's always better to face a great team after a bad defeat, like the one the azzurri had in the Champions League. They reacted in the right way.” Finally, a comment on the penalty incident that decided the game: “For me, it's not a penalty. But it's not true that Di Lorenzo went looking for it: it's normal that with a half-exposed ball he makes the move to cover it. When I played, I always did it, it's a way to protect the ball.”
