Thiago Motta’s words after win 1-0 against Inter

Where They Won the Game

“We changed our energy. The first half was complicated we showed too much respect to our opponents, giving them time and control of the game. In matches like these, you need to have the ball and play good football. We did much better in the second half.”

Courage to Always Play

“Ultimately, it’s about the playersthey are the ones who step onto the field. In a team sport, everyone has to be available. Khephren had to come off due to cramps, which we had anticipated given the challenges.

Manu was ready on the bench, and he stepped in during a moment that could have been tougher. He defended well and used the ball effectively to create advantages.”

For the Growth Journey

“Victories bring confidence and reinforce our strength. To win these matches, we need to perform well. In the first half, we didn’t deserve to win, but if we continue playing like this, things will turn in our favor though I don’t believe in luck.

The players give everything and train at their best. Playing as we did in the second half, especially at home… I’ve seen many away games where we performed even better. The first half today was difficult, but in the second, we played real football.”

In the Hearts of the Fans

“I have no idea. My goal is to improve the team and give my best every day. I don’t coach to please anyone but myself. What matters is that we are on the right path, and I love seeing the players run and fight for victory.

We won deservedly, and that’s my main focus. The players work hard every day and leave everything on the field they deserve the fans’ support.”
