Buffon urges Juventus not to dwell on Inter Milan defeat

Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon says there's no point in dwelling on their defeat to Inter Milan.

The Nerazzurri defeated Antonio Conte's side to end their 49-match unbeaten run.

"I do not think losing means we will have lost our confidence," he told La Stampa. "We have been growing as a team for over a year, and sooner or later the run had to come to an end.

"The win will of course give Inter more self-belief, but I don't think it affects us too much. For the first quarter of the game we played well, looking for the second goal.

"But we sat back a bit too much and defended with fear. I don't like losing, but my discomfort towards the result is only mild."
