Antonio Conte couldn’t understand how Inter threw away their lead for a 3-3 draw with Sassuolo. ‘I think we deserved much more considering how much we created.’

It was a rollercoaster of a match, as Sassuolo took the lead immediately, then the hosts went 2-1 up before half-time, only for a flurry of late goals.

“I think we deserved much more considering how much we created, whereas I don’t recall any Samir Handanovic saves,” said Conte in his press conference.

It was a rollercoaster of a match, as Sassuolo took the lead immediately, then the hosts went 2-1 up before half-time, only for a flurry of late goals.

“I think we deserved much more considering how much we created, whereas I don’t recall any Samir Handanovic saves,” said Conte in his press conference.

“It’s something we keep repeating in this pattern and are paying a heavy price. I am very disappointed and so are the lads. When you play this type of game and put so much into it, you have the chance to win despite the difficulties in the key area of midfield, you have to take home the three points. We didn’t do that, it’s disappointing and troubling.”

Conte had complained after the 2-1 win over Sampdoria at the weekend that Inter didn’t kill games off, which must’ve come to mind when Roberto Gagliardini hit the crossbar from two yards out.

“There are situations where we need to score goals and we are paying for these naïve errors. We had the chances to finish it and we didn’t. I don’t know what more we can do other than keep working.

“I am happy with the performance, we’ve got to be more careful on the details. That is where we can grow and improve.”
