The turning point in the game occurred in the first half, when an incident changed the balance of the match. Conte acknowledged that such situations can have a significant impact on the outcome of a game. However, he praised his team's reaction in the second half, saying it showed their spirit and determination to turn the result around.

Conte also addressed the team's injuries and the challenges they face this season. He noted that Napoli has brought in nine new players to support the core group that won the Scudetto last year, and it will take time to integrate them into the team. He emphasized that the team is building their own path and will face a complex season.

Conte expressed confidence in his team's ability to overcome challenges and stay motivated. He stated that the signs they are sending out are those of a determined team that will not give up.
