THIAGO MOTTA: "HAPPY FOR THE TEAM, THE CLUB, AND THE FANS"
The words of coach Thiago Motta, very satisfied with his boys after the match against AC Milan:
"I think all the victories we have experienced so far are good victories. We know how much the players work every day and how much they have grown so far. We're happy with today's win, a hard-earned and well-deserved victory: we must continue like this.
The boys deserve a day off to enjoy this result and to come back with even more energy to prepare for the next challenge.
We played two good games against two very good teams, Napoli and Milan are fighting for the Scudetto and I'm happy for the boys because it's a great satisfaction for them to win against two opponents of this level, so I can only congratulate them.
We knew we would be up against a very strong team, very offensive, and we did well throughout the game, creating many dangerous situations.
I'm lucky to have a fantastic group, who knew how to deal with the difficult moments we experienced. The rest of the championship ahead of us will not be easy, we know we will have to fight, the players know what they have to do, they are the protagonists and tonight they put their qualities and the fruit of their work on the field.
I'm totally focused on the work I'm doing with these guys and I want to enjoy evenings like this as much as possible. We know that we have to keep our feet on the ground, the road is still long, there will be delicate moments, but we have to face them together, as a team, only in this way we'll be able to achieve salvation.
Playing at San Siro is always a fortune, today we are very happy to live a unique moment like this, unfortunately, we could not have the fans by our side, fans who have proved faithful and passionate even in the darkest moments, we hope to give them another joy like this the next Sunday.
Refereeing situations in favor or against are part of football, it has happened to everyone, the important thing for us is to be aware of having played a good game from the first minute until the last, we are satisfied especially of this reason.
Agudelo came into the game well, but like him the whole team, I'm satisfied with all of them: those who started, those who took over, and those who cheered for their teammates from the bench".
