Kosta Runjaic faced the media after his first defeat in Serie A. Here's what he had to say:

“I don't like losing, but we have to be clear and realistic. We played against a great team who were very aggressive. We conceded an easy goal, and from my point of view we lost too many 50-50s in the first half, and we didn't keep the ball. We also gave away possession too easily in the second half and that's how the second goal came about. The match was basically over there and then.

“Quality or pressing? They were better than us in both regards. They have a lot of quality and performed well, but we made life too easy for them.

“Now we’ll analyse the game and focus on what’s to come. The game on Wednesday is very important – we’ll be playing at home and we want to get through. Then we’ll face a great team in Inter. The next few games are set to be pretty interesting.”
