Massimo Rastelli admits Cagliari deserved to lose to Inter, although he insists the 5-1 scoreline was harsh.
Having fallen two goals down in the first half, the Sardinians gave themselves hope of a comeback by halving the deficit before half time, only to collapse to a heavy defeat in the second period.
"5-1 is an exaggerated result, especially with the chances we had in the first half," Rastelli said at the Stadio Sant'Elia.

"The team reacted after going 2-0 down, we reopened the match. The regret is that we didn't stay in the match, we conceded the third goal soon after the restart.
"From that moment on, we were completely out of it. I repeat, we deserved to lose but not by such a large margin."
