“His best performance was in the press conference” » Score received by the Romanian technician”

The president of Inter, Giuseppe Marotta, harshly criticized the refereeing because of the penalty given to the contact between Mkhitaryan and Di Lorenzo, and Gazzetta dello Sport gave the Nerazzurri the right.

“On the first penalty, the decision to award it was wrong, on the second, real one (no – the one awarded to Inter with VAR, at the score of 0-2), I didn't see it. He refereed with a delayed reaction, probably tired after officiating at the U20 World Cup,” wrote the most prestigious profile daily in Italy.

Cristi Chivu, on the other hand, refused to complain and responded in the same way to his counterpart Antonio Conte, who had insinuated that he, instead of the Romanian, would not have allowed Marotta to speak. A statement that Gazzetta dello Sport claims was “the best performance of the Romanian coach” on Saturday night.

“His best performance came in the press conference when he refused to make excuses. However, he fails to react to the mental decline of his players after the seven wins“, emphasizes Gazzetta dello Sport, which gave the Romanian technician 5, while Antonio Conte's counterpart was rated 7.

Cristi Chivu's reaction to Antonio Conte's statement

The club has the right to do what it thinks is right. As a coach, I will never come here to complain, for consistency's sake, because I have a different dignity and approach than many are used to.
I don't care about my reputation or bragging about how good I am. Players just need to focus on the game. I'm trying to change things, but for now I'm fighting alone.
We are always used to crying and complaining and we have to evolve. As long as I'm here, I'll do that. I don't care what other people think about me
