In an interview with Inter TV, Antonio Conte analysed the defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League group stage, a result which eliminated Inter from the competition.
“The disappointment remains. It is a pity because in the end I think we deserved more. We had to do better with all the chances we had. Football is a very simple game and you have to score if you want to win,” he remarked.
“Between this match and the match against Roma, we were not very clinical in front of goal and we paid for it against Barcelona.
“I saw great disappointment in the eyes of the boys and I am also feeling sorry for our fans because they made an incredible atmosphere from the first to the last second.
“We have to think positively because this is a group of serious guys. We are working seriously, with a sense of belonging, joy and the desire to defend these colours and I think this can be noticed on the field.”
He concluded: “We must continue on this path. As I have said many times, we have many young players who are experiencing things for the first time. We have just started on our journey and a little patience is needed. We will give everything for Inter.”
