Chivu: The team lacked concentration and clear judgment in the second half and should not waste energy arguing
6686 Sports October 26th In the 8th round of Serie A, the Inter Milan away team lost 1-3 to Naples. After the game, Inter Milan coach Chivu was interviewed.
About Marotta’s views on the 12-yard penalty, the team’s reaction after the 12-yard penalty, and why the reversal was not achieved?
Chivu: "I want to talk about football itself and this game, and our outstanding performance in the first half. We participated in the game throughout the game, almost hitting the goalpost twice, and we also fought hard in the second half, but in order to recover the score, we lost After conceding the second goal, we regained a goal through twelve yards, but then we wasted our energy arguing with the opponent's coaching bench and ultimately failed to reverse the game." But the team conceded some goals that Inter Milan would not normally concede?
Chivu: "This is a complete waste of energy. We should have recognized the rhythm of the game, the situation on the field and the key nodes. The second goal conceded was because we failed to predict the danger - at that time we had the advantage of the number of players, but we were caught off guard by Spinazzola's pass. And, even though we had noticed McTominay's cutting movement before, we still failed to respond in time when we conceded the third goal. This situation should not have happened."
Did Inter Milan still show resilience and cohesion tonight?
Chivu: "I have been working hard to build this kind of team. I am proud of the performance of the boys and now more confident than before - they played very well in the first half. Even though Naples was full of momentum at home, we still performed well. , not only experienced moments of passive defense, but also worked hard to control the rhythm of the game, but football is like this, it requires concentration and clear judgment, maybe we did lack these in the second half."
What happened in the dispute with the Naples coaching bench?
Chivu: "I don't know what happened, and I don't care. But I will tell the players that they shouldn't waste their energy arguing with the opponent's coaching bench. We can't ruin the good performance just because we want to argue. We must focus on the game itself and our goals."
