Inzaghi: Juventus are stronger

I was angry because we really hoped that we’d be up to the level of an extraordinary team, he told Sky Sport Italia.

I told the players I am satisfied, as after two rounds we can’t be on the same level as one of the strongest teams in Europe.

If Honda’s header had gone in, the game would’ve changed. We put two strikers on and tried to get back into it, but to no avail.

Tonight should give us the awareness that taking it one game at a time we can grow and get closer to Juve and Roma, who have something more than the others.

The goal was created by two great champions who decided a game that otherwise may well have ended 0-0 for a positive point. The defence had a great game tonight and closed off most of those runs.

We are all disappointed not to get a result, but at the same time taking points off a side that won the Scudetto three years in a row and last season had 50 more points than us was asking a bit too much.

We tried to double up the marking. Menez played an incredible game despite not being 100 per cent fit, so we should be happy with our performance, in my view.

Inzaghi seems to be at odds with the Milan hierarchy’s promises, but insisted he was only being honest.

I want to be realistic, as otherwise we’re blowing smoke. I am ambitious, like my players, and want to be able to take anyone on.

I hoped to beat Juventus tonight with a miracle and it could’ve happened. I am certain that continuing to work like this we can achieve great things in future.

Milan played with a reshuffled defence, as Alex, Diego Lopez and Daniele Bonera were sidelined.

Zapata and Rami had a great game against tough clients like Llorente and Tevez, while Nigel acted as a shield for the defence too. It was tough, we knew it would be, but we have to go forward and be happy with the reaction.

There were also a couple of incidents that going the right way would’ve allowed us to equalise. We have the chance to go top again on Tuesday against Empoli and we really believe in ourselves.

We have to be honest tonight and acknowledge Juve were better.

Yeah let's be realistic. We hit the post and if it wasn't for Pogba's brilliance it would have been 0-0. It was not an amazing performance by any means. This Milan team couldn't even get the ball out of their own half.

Yeah but it is the start of the season and they defends with 11 players on their own turf.It's not that easy to score when the opponent is just defending from the first minute.

But in today's game it means exactly that. And those three shots other than the goal were pretty lame too. We had possession but we did not create anything, that's a reality.

:lol:

It would be one thing if we seriously took the game to Milan, or if they were able to keep the ball, but their brain dead midfield of mercenaries couldn't even muster an attack other than a couple fast breaks. That was one of the poorest matches I've seen Milan play at home, so why should I be amazed?
