@otogie Conference Call: The spirit of Champions

in sports •  7 years ago 

There was no better way for Antonio Conte to celebrate his 50th game in charge of the Blues than by winning at Wembley and the boss thanked his players for their efforts against the side that ran us closest last season.

Conte celebrated both our goals with his customary gusto, not least Marcos Alonso's late winner that secured our first victory of the campaign. He was in an effusive mood afterwards and began with a message…

'I want to thank my players, everyone, because they showed me great desire, great spirit, great will, and great heart,' the boss said.

'They were fighters today and for sure I saw a lot of positive things in a moment not easy for us, with suspensions and injury. Don't forget Hazard stayed out.

'Despite this, to play away against Tottenham and to win is a fantastic result. It's not easy. We suffered during the game, that's normal, but I think we showed we were dangerous in every moment. We suffered but we were ready to try to score the second goal and the third goal.

'Don't forget last season, after 13 wins in a row, we lost against Tottenham. Instead today, I repeat, I saw a lot of positive things.'_20170820_210002.jpg
