Bologna coach Thiago Motta admitted frustration after their 0-0 draw with Monza.

Monza goalkeeper Michele di Gregorio was outstanding on the day.

“It was a very good performance, we created chances, did not allow Monza to have dangerous counter-attacks, I barely remember one or two times they beat our press. We always tried to attack, to win, and I think more than seven minutes were wasted," Motta told Sky Italia, who was unhappy with Monza's time wasting.

“It's not that I am angry, I just get the feeling sometimes Serie A is going backwards rather than forwards. I think all together we need to figure out how to make it much more spectacular for the fans.

“I think the Bologna supporters will go home satisfied anyway. We played much better than against Frosinone, we deserved the goal that didn't come, but the ball did not go into the net."
