MILAN - Hector Cuper press conference (4):
What worries you about Lazio and Inter ahead of tomorrow evening's match?
What worries me about Inter is the bad football we've played lately. We didn't
play well against Milan and Valencia, perhaps because of the numerous absences.
I would also like to suffer a bit less. Lazio are a team that play very well.
We'll have to be careful of Claudio Lopez' velocity, especially on the
counter-attack.
Will you be out of the race for the Scudetto if you don't manage to close the
gap at the top tomorrow?
I don't think so. I will only consider it over when the mathematics say so.
Could Conceiçao play tomorrow? Has everything been cleared up with the
Portuguese player?
Yes, he could play. Everything has been cleared up with the player. When you
have problems with a player you always try to use dialogue to find a solution.
Conceiçao has a particular personality. He has a great temperament. I'm older
and I have to be more understanding. You mustn't forget that footballers are
very young and they don't always manage to control their reactions.
