Napoli's Conte Goes Big: A New Challenge Against Milan in the Italian Super Cup Showdown

Conte Sets Sights on a Premier Showdown

Antonio Conte, Napoli's head coach, spoke about the upcoming Italian Super Cup semi-final against Milan, scheduled for tomorrow in Riyadh, noting that Milan is a great club with players at the highest level.

In the press conference, Conte said: "Matches of this kind are a strong motivation for us, because we enjoy this occasion and the big clashes, and we approach them with the aim of lifting the trophy."

He added: "Winning makes everyone happy, and pursuing it must always be done through fair means."

He continued: "We are constantly working to improve our quality, and we will show it on the pitch tomorrow."

He also stated: "Penalty shootouts are not decisive; we will try to decide the match in regular time, and we know we will face a special team with high-quality players."

Small Moments, Big Ambition: Napoli's Path to the Cup

Throughout the season we have had positive moments and some negative ones, but the important thing is to keep working and maintain the momentum.

He explained: "We must treat victory as we treat defeat; winning boosts confidence, while defeat requires analysis and finding the reasons behind it."

On the readiness of Romelu Lukaku, Conte said: "We will assess the players to determine the best lineup; Lukaku has not played any minutes yet, and we must be patient—he is disciplined and actively participates in training."

He wrapped up: "Meeting Napoli fans in Riyadh makes us very happy; when you're abroad and see a large number of supporters backing you, it gives you extra motivation to win more of them."

Punchline 1: Conte’s pep talks are so precise, they could unlock a defense with a single espresso-powered headshot—just add tactical genius for flavor.

Punchline 2: If Napoli win, the trophy might come with extra luggage—the celebrations will travel, and so will Conte’s smile, straight to Milan’s doorstep.
