A bitter elimination against Lazio in the TIM Cup thanks to Lazio for an Inter who finally stops. Pioli analysed the game to Inter Channel: “The team wasn’t losing, but the effort to equalise should have come earlier, because we had the energy. Not when we were down by two. We started well and we suffered much less then we are used to in the championship were we ended up winning 3-0. We should have maintained balance, instead we ended up playing with ten men that really complicated things. If the penalty was an error from the referee? I would say yes. And in the first half there was a foul in the area for us on Candreva. But what happened tonight motivate us even more. If we missed Gagliardini? In every game we have to improve, but it’s obvious that he’s one of our strongest players at the moment. But we have to speak about the team and the attitude. One player can’t change the result of a game nor the general performance of the team. Errors will happen, but we have the quality to come back. We have to be more compact and not to get too caught up in the frenesy of the game. ”
