Live Inter-Real Madrid, Antonio Conte’s press conference

APPIANO GENTILE – Inter-Real Madrid is a match that always shines with its own light. The Nerazurri will play the chance tomorrow evening to continue hoping to qualify for the finals at the Meazza stadium against Real Madrid. The blancos prevailed in the first leg at the end of a match that for long stretches saw Inter close to the comeback. Lagging behind by two goals, Lautaro Martinez put Inter back on track and then had to fold with 10 minutes from the end. Antonio Conte does not discount, Inter want this qualification and to do so they will have to play the perfect match. FcInter1908.it brings you – as usual – the direct text of the press conference.

These are the first words of Conte: “Tomorrow a final? For us it certainly represents a final also because the defeat in Madrid and the two draws there are not many solutions. We know that a difficult match awaits us, we know the team, we have to play a great match and there is an important result to achieve. We know that if we want we can, we have shown it in the first leg, improving some situations, we have shown that we can play it, with great determination “

BREAKTHROUGH’ – “We have to make this leap also because a lot is expected of us but we haven’t done it yet. The talk is zero, we have to do the facts, everyone has to take responsibility, me the players and the club. If it hasn’t happened yet, it doesn’t mean it won’t happen “

DIFFERENCES LAST YEAR – “Often last year they started with the right malice, as Samir said, many teams arrive closed and buttoned up and it is difficult to find the way to the goal it takes patience. We have increased ball possession a lot this season compared to last season. At the same time, we are giving something too much. As mentioned above, if we want to be competitive we have to raise the bar and across the board “

SPINA DORSALE REAL – “I don’t know if Real can complain about the absences, they have a complete squad with many players from Real Madrid. The fact that the press talks about absences makes me smile “

CHAMPIONSHIP VICTORY – “victory with the taste of defeat? It is a fact that we always try to negativize everything, we knew it and we realized it last year. Mentally I was very prepared maybe others may not be, I’m talking about the guys, but when you play in important teams with this coat of arms, you have to know that it’s either all is good or all is bad, there is no middle ground. This must give us greater strength, to understand that the only way to avoid speculation and criticism and many who chat and say a lot of crap is to respond on the field. We have to be compact and united and face all this if we want to stay at Inter, otherwise we’ll go to medium-low teams and live in peace. “

SANCHEZ TREQUARTIST – “It could be a more solution for the match in progress or if you play with lower-level teams than Inter. we are an offensive team with winger who are more wingers than winger, more attacking midfielders, putting three forwards becomes difficult for the team to be able to bear them. During the race in progress, situations are created to risk something more “

WHAT TO DO – “We have to win the race, get an excellent result, there are no other solutions or other ways. There are 3 races left and to qualify we will have to score at least 7 points if not winning all three in one day I think the most difficult of the Champions League but we have shown that we deserve something more than the results obtained and if these have not arrived we must look inside to understand where improve”

Handanovic: “Weren’t we able to get the maximum? I think there are still three games left and then we will make assessments, if we look at the games we played and how we played them, we can complain more than the others, but there are still three games left and then we will sum up. So many goals scored? When you take a lot of goals there is always something to worry about but then you have to analyze things why they happen and how they happen. If we look at Inter, they all play the same way, closed and ready to restart, the goals we get are either our mistakes or starts. Few goals we have taken because overwhelmed with the opponent’s game. In my opinion they are all things that can be improved but it is normal for there to be concern but if you want to grow it is the first thing to fix “
