Zivo: The first half of the fight was a bit off guard, Esposito can not lose the way in the confrontation
Is Inter Milan born in

"Don't start talking about these things, just start talking about 'Zivoism'. We played a serious and excellent game. In the first half, we caught them off guard with their intensity and the oppressiveness of the second place, and we were a little underprepared for this. In the second half, we adjusted by improving our own strength and the desire to win the confrontation, and we were able to play such a game. By playing more vertical passes, we successfully created some important opportunities. This game was very good in all aspects because we won all the confrontations, not only successfully dealing with what they showed, but even doing more."
How to manage the fanatical pursuit of F-Esposito?
"Calm down. We try to avoid repeating mistakes we have made in the past, give him time, and don't forget that he was a 2005-born player. I'm happy for him because he's doing very well. He fits into an environment that is not easy and proves himself in a very real game. That goal is a reward for what he does, the wisdom he shows. At 18, he chose to go to another level of league, experience adult games, and spend two great seasons in Spezia. He has a lot of room for improvement. I know he understands it all. The work has to go on, he's ready to do it, and keep his feet on the ground." What's the mental state of the team?
"We have been training for 14 days, and the guys responded this spiritually. Since we are here, we want to work hard to get to the end. The team is devoted to a new methodology, which makes me proud. It's all their credit, they incorporate an important mentality. They always try to prepare and give a little more in training to come in handy in the game. Everyone did this, from Sommer to those who don't have a chance to play on the bench. We are a team of 22-23 players, and we are quickly integrated into the environment. I also see those 5-6 players with some problems, who work hard to get back to help the team. I see an important spirit and a strong desire to win."
What do you think of Riverbed?
"This is a great team, they try their best to advance. They have important, strong players, although there are several suspensions in this game today. The players who come on the bench also bring vitality because they play less and they are very eager to show themselves. We asked themselves how long this intensity lasts, and I know they can't last for 90 minutes, but they do their best. Sacrifice to their coaches, these players and their fans. I'm so happy to see the enthusiasm of the fans."
F-Esposito is like who is like?
"I never make comparisons because I knew him since he was a kid, and it wasn't fair to do comparisons. Some people might think he was only good in the penalty area, but it wasn't. He was smart, learned to use his body, and could not lose the edge against the defenders. He always showed his football wisdom in any situation that could be shown. I think it was family inheritance and his brothers were good players. Congratulations to his mom and dad. He told me the other day that the brothers had never played together, and today I wanted to have him play with S-Esposito at some point, but he was no longer physically. The chance to play together will definitely come."
