According to Cronachemaceratesi.it, Materazzi shared insights about his relationship with Benítez at the Overtime Festival, claiming that Benítez held a bias against him because he reminded the coach of Mourinho.

During his appearance at the Overtime Festival at the Lauro Rossi Theatre in Macerata, Materazzi reflected on certain events from his playing career. Discussing his relationship with Rafael Benítez, he explained that Benítez struggled to win over the Inter Milan dressing room after taking over from Mourinho, who had led the team to a treble. Materazzi said: "Mourinho always had a voice with everyone and would always pat you on the back. You'd go through any difficulty with him. Benítez, on the other hand, had a poor impression of me from the start because whenever he saw me, he thought of Mourinho."

Materazzi also recalled an incident during Leonardo's time as Inter Milan's manager. Before a derby, he had suggested to Leonardo that Lúcio, who had received a yellow card, should be rested to prevent him from missing the next match against AC Milan through suspension. Lúcio ended up being suspended anyway, and Inter Milan lost that derby match.

Speaking about San Siro, Materazzi said: "I've played at many important stadiums, like Old Trafford in Manchester and the Bernabéu, but the feeling San Siro gives you is incomparable. Players like me and Balotelli know how to ignite San Siro with a single action or one attacking move, and Lautaro does the same now. He got angry with the referee in the match against Napoli, and that lit up San Siro and sparked Inter Milan's comeback."
