The match against Napoli that will close the Eagles' season will be held on Sunday 22 at 12:30 pm. These are the words of coach Thiago Motta during the usual pre-match conference:
"The satisfaction is huge, this is a great time to enjoy and be together. I want to thank the boys again for everything they have done this year and our fans, who have supported us throughout the year and deserve this achievement we have reached together.
We won our championship, we will take advantage of the next game to pay tribute to our fans and thank them again for their support.
What would I do again and what not? I would still follow the intuitions, because they come after so many hours of work, of sacrifice, and I was lucky to work with guys who were determined and ready for anything to achieve our goal, who allowed me to follow these intuitions. I would not do anything differently, I would do everything the same way because from the mistakes we make we learn, improve and look forward.
I came here with humility and a little shyness, I needed time to gain confidence and adapt. This city has given me a lot of positive emotions, it has been an extraordinary experience and I just have to thank all the people who have been there from day one, even in the most difficult moments, especially the boys who have given me confidence and earned this salvation, which comes not only from sporting qualities but from the unity and trust of the group.
There are many moments of the season that were significant for me and that I will never forget, one among them was the victory against Napoli because it came at a difficult time for me and for the team, and it was a turning point for the season.
Our goal every time we take the field, even in training, is to win: it's part of the game. The team that takes the field on Sunday will be the one that deserves it after the work done during the week. We have definitely trained with more serenity, but with the same commitment and seriousness that we have shown since day one, and we will take the field to give our best.
My future? I haven't had time to think about it, I'm not worried about it. I want to focus on this incredible moment we are living. This is the way I live soccer and life: focus on the present and try to make the most of every moment."
