Inter Milan coach Leonardo says there was a moment when he thought they would overcome Champions League opponents Schalke.
The Nerazzurri had a mountain to climb after their 5-2 first leg defeat to Schalke, but also lost 2-1 in Germany to crash out of the Champions League quarter-final.
"I really did believe, because in the first half we took the initiative and controlled the game, but didn't have the opportunities to score," said the Coach.
"I dreamed of a comeback and we could've done it with a goal at the start and being able to hit at the right time. Admittedly, we certainly could've done better in some situations.
"In the goals we conceded, especially at San Siro, we always had our defence at the ready and weren't caught on the break.
"A result like that is not only down to one thing. There were other factors that penalised us. There is disappointment and that is difficult to control."
