Inzaghi finds positives from AC Milan defeat

AC Milan boss Pippo Inzaghi insists they can take confidence from defeat to Juventus.

Carlos Tevez, Leonardo Bonucci and Alvaro Morata struck for Juve to cancel out Luca Antonelli's goal for Milan.

"Apart from the result, these performances give you a lot of self-belief," the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.

"It was tough to play on a par with Juve, especially with so many players out of action, but we managed it for a long period of the game.

"Now we hope to change the trend of results, but with this hunger and attitude that will happen soon enough."

Inzaghi added: "There are regrets, as Antonelli did well to pressure the defenders and win back possession, we sent Pazzini through, but Buffon made a great save. Now we have two important home games and we have to do well.

"I wanted Antonelli and the President got certain players for me, which proves there is faith in my ideas. Luca did very well tonight and has real character. These are the players I like.

"I am convinced of my choices, I didn't think I'd be able to perform miracles, but I hope with hard work we can see a Milan side up to the task."
