Napoli maintained their strong performance in the 20th round of the Italian league against Inter Milan at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, with the match ending in a 2-2 draw. The game was highly intense and featured a controversial penalty that led to the team's coach, Antonio Conte, being sent off. Despite the red card, the team expressed great satisfaction with their performance and the players' character during the match, affirming that the draw against Inter was a deserved result.

Christian Stellini, Conte's assistant, said: "Honestly, I won't discuss the penalty incident. We've had a complicated week regarding that, so it's better to focus on the team's excellent performance."

He added: "The reaction after the penalty kick gives us great confidence and strength. The team once again proved, on a difficult field and against a strong opponent, that they deserved the draw and perhaps even more."

Regarding Conte's decision not to attend the media session, Stellini continued: "There is great satisfaction with the team's reaction. Right after the penalty, we didn't see the incident; it was more of a reaction to conceding the goal than to the challenge itself. After the red card, he decided not to come here, and we hope he won't face any suspensions in the future."

Stellini also pointed out the technical aspects of the match: "Although Inter made all five of their substitutions, we only made two, one of which was in stoppage time. We are in good physical condition, and coming back twice against Inter Milan is not easy for any team. We are satisfied with the character, determination, and quality we showed today."

Regarding the new players, he added: "When Højlund arrived in the summer, the season had already started and he had limited training sessions, but he put in a lot of effort and showed humility. He works daily to improve, and we want to develop him into a complete striker. He has a long way to go, but he is already performing well."
