On May 23, 2023, Napoli's head coach Antonio Conte expressed his overwhelming emotions following a significant victory that has revitalized the team's prospects in Serie A. Conte cited the immense pressure from local fans as a factor that weighed heavily on the team's performance before the match.

He stated, 'When we arrived at the stadium, it was difficult to reach it due to the crowd.

I thought that if we disappointed these people, it would weigh on us for a long time.' Despite the pressure, Conte highlighted the team's fantastic performance, attributing their remarkable season to the players' resilience and adaptability.

'We had an extraordinary season, thanks to these players who were able to reinvent themselves, especially those who had previously won a title and then finished in tenth place,' he added.

Conte's coaching accolades include titles won with Juventus, Chelsea, Inter Milan, and now Napoli, making this latest triumph particularly special in his career.

He remarked, 'Now we can truly add the cherry on top.

It is certainly the most unexpected, difficult, and stimulating achievement in terms of a challenge.

Coming here after a tenth place finish, when everything was falling apart, and convincing players that we could achieve something positive...

if we also consider the 0-0 draw with Modena and the 3-0 defeat to Verona, it means we have really done something incredible.'

While reflecting on the historical significance of winning at Napoli, Conte acknowledged the legacy of Diego Maradona, stating, 'Winning in Naples is very difficult; it means that these players possess important values, otherwise this would not have happened in such a short time.

Thirty years ago, a certain Diego Armando Maradona succeeded, and only here can one understand what it means for the people.'

As for his future, Conte chose to focus on the present, maintaining a positive relationship with club president Aurelio De Laurentiis and his family, stating, 'We are enjoying everything right now.

I have an excellent relationship with De Laurentiis; we had the chance to get to know each other, and now we are celebrating.

We are both winners, perhaps in different ways.'

The players celebrated around him, each sharing their joy and gratitude.

Captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo praised Conte’s influence, saying, 'The credit goes to everyone, especially the coach.

This team needed him to return to high levels.

He is a phenomenon.

Only he could bring us up so quickly.'

Scott McTominay reflected on the experience, stating, 'It is incredible; it is hard to describe the emotions.' While Giacomo Raspadori expressed disbelief at the moment, saying, 'I can't understand anything; I am in ecstasy.' Matteo Politano noted the contrast with the previous scudetto, remarking, 'The championship two years ago was written months in advance; this week was filled with anxiety.

In front of our people, we could not let them down.' Leonardo Spinazzola added that the team recognized their potential to win the title with victories over Atalanta and Juventus.
