Inter remains on top of the table after another win, Antonio Conte's team defeated Sampdoria 3-1. The coach discussed the team's character after the match: "I am happy with the performance and the win, in these matches where you express your ideas clearly, you must close them out. We could have scored more than two goals in the first half. Then the unexpected occurred, we gave away a chance at goal and Sanchez was sent off, and right after we concded. This would have been a death knell for any team, but not these boys who rolled with the punches. We were able to score the third down a man. I am happy."
"Sanchez? It's a delicate situation. At halftime I looked over who had already been booked. Sometimes you can avoid the second, other times no. He should be more aware in the future for that not to happen."
"Juventus? It's a team who is on eight scudetti which they have won going away. We are proud coming into the match with 18 points in the league. Time will tell if our ambition is real."
