Matias Vecino lamented Inter’s wastefulness in front of goal after the Nerazzurri conceded a late equaliser against Chievo.

Ivan Perisic’s first-half strike had put Luciano Spalletti’s side for a first away win in four matches at the Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi, but Sergio Pellissier restored parity in stoppage time to secure a point for the Flying Donkeys.

And while admitting the visitors should have defended better in the 91st minute, Vecino felt Inter’s inability to put away their chances was the biggest issue.

“We created plenty of chances to finish the game off,” he said to Inter TV.

“We should have been out of sight and we should have done better with their goal – like I said, though, we could have finished it off earlier.

“It’s disappointing to lose two points like that.”

Vecino has not started for the Nerazzurri since the defeat to Atalanta on 11 November but believes he is close to reaching full fitness again, having struggled with a thigh strain for the last three weeks.

“I’m feeling pretty good,” he assured.

“The important thing is getting back in shape and playing matches. I just need to keep working.”

The Uruguayan also said he enjoyed playing in a midfield three, having replaced Radja Nainggolan for the final 23 minutes in Verona.

“It certainly changes a few things [compared to playing in a midfield two], I have more freedom in that position. I’ve played there in the past and I like it a lot.”
