Antonio Conte speaks out on Napoli
The words of Antonio Conte
On the sidelines of the evening-event for the Agnelli family’s 100th anniversary at the helm of Juventus, Antonio Conte spoke about rumors of his future as coach of Napoli. “For now I enjoy the family, I made a clear choice, I decided to stop with Tottenham”.
“Basically there’s a will to rest and enjoy the family, then we know very well that so many things can happen. Napoli? You must always have great respect and education, absolutely”.
Napoli coach Rudi Garcia meanwhile è was heavily protested after the Italian champions’s home defeat against Fiorentina. The Neapolitan fans did not like the choices of the French coach, who was rejected both for the initial lineup and the changes made during the match.
The Campani are again seven points off the top, and at the triple whistle came heavy insults from the Posillipo Stand, where Garcia had gone to greet the fans.
After the game, Garcia è took the blame for the bad faux pas: “I am responsible, but I did not expect this defeat, we could have stayed among the top three in the standings. Now we have to win with Verona, as long as we don’t win three games in a row we won’t be able to get stably among the top four in the standings, Napoli can’tò stay out”.
Garcia explained the mostì contested change, Cajuste for Politano, this way: “olevo to give more weight to the midfield. We also made mistakes in the offensive phase, we did not have a fluid construction of the game, we faced a quality opponent. Despite seeing the statistics we took only 3 shots on goal, this è a problem we have been carrying around since the beginning of the season”.
“The first goal should not have been taken. Osimhen’s goal before halftime should have given us an extra boost, but that didn’t è happen. The thing that is not good è being so unaggressive in the defensive phase. We made only four fouls in the whole game, there’è something that is not è normal”.

US Open, Alexander Zverev also out: Jannik Sinner thanks.
All-U.S. semifinal at US Open
Another big man exits the tournament. After the various Alcaraz and Djokovic, Zverev è is also no longer in the running at the US Open. The German è was beaten by Fritz in four sets (7-6 (2) 3-6 6-4 7-6), at the end of a match that è lasted almost three and a half hours. A defeat that leaves a lot of bitterness in Zverev’s mouth. The German was aiming to reach at least the final.
A feat for the American who, dragged by the home crowd, won the first semifinal of a Slam event. After winning the first set on tie-break, Fritz suffered the return of Zverev, who took home the second partial with a peremptory 6-3. The momentum seemed to be in the German’s hands but Fritz escaped on 3-0. Zverev recovers but gives up at the più beautiful. Spectacular fourth set. Zverev tries everything but, once again, the tie-break costs him dearly. He loses it 7-3 and says goodbye to the tournament.
Dreams big for Fritz who, in the semifinals, will face the other American Tiafoe who, in the quarterfinals, wins the match with Dimitrov, forced to retire in the fourth set due to a physical problem: 6-3, 6-7, 6-3, 4-1 the partials in favor of Tiafoe.
The United States dreams, after 21 years (Roddick, 2003), of an American winning the U.S. Open. In the meantime, it enjoys Sinner who, thanks to Zverev è’s knockout; increasingly serene in his comfortable position as world No. 1.
