Getting closer to the Scudetto, Conte asks Inter not to feel calm just yet

DBasia.news – Inter Milan’s chances of winning the Scudetto are even greater after defeating Cagliari in the 30th week of Serie A 2020-2021. But that hasn’t calmed down the coach, Antonio Conte.

In a match that took place at the Giuseppe Meazza on Sunday (11/4), Inter won by a narrow score of 1-0. The Nerazzurri’s winning goal was scored by Matteo Darmian in the 77th minute.

An additional three points has made Inter successful at keeping a distance from its closest competitor, AC Milan. The two teams are now at eleven points with eight games remaining.

Conte did not hesitate to praise his players. He considered Romelu Lukaku to be much more developed than last season.

“Milan defeated Parma yesterday and it was very important to win this match so that the distance between us doesn’t change.

Many of my players have never experienced that kind of pressure and I am satisfied with what they are doing, “Conte told DAZN.

With a consistent performance, Inter seem to be waiting for time to end Juventus’s dominance in Serie A. La Beneamata practically only needs four more wins to end the title race.

Even so, Conte did not want his team to be fixated on the number of points that must be collected to win the title. He wants Inter to clean up the remaining eight games with a win without thinking about the standings.

“I really like winning and that’s what I want to tell the players. I don’t want to stop and count how many games I have left (to win the title), “he added.

“The work is not done. We won three important games in eight days, but we have eight more to go.”

The meaning of celebration

Behind the victory over Cagliari, Conte had time to steal the attention. He was seen celebrating the goals scored by Darmian along with other Inter players.

Conte has good reasons for doing so. This was a testament to the close relationship between all the components at Inter.

“I don’t think of myself as their big brother, but sometimes I kiss my players on the head. They know I am ready to jump into the fire for them, “he concluded.
