AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia insists they deserved a point after defeat to Inter Milan.

Hernanes and Mauro Icardi sandwiched Radja Nainggolan's goal for Roma.

"I think a draw would've been a more logical result, but we know at this level a game can be decided by a single incident," Garcia told Sky Sport Italia.

"We hit the woodwork in the first half, but after the break played more like Roma. We equalised, pushed hard to win this match and in the end conceded the goal of defeat.

"I have nothing to complain about when it comes to the attitude and desire to win in the second half from my lads. We don't have time to complain, as there's another game on Wednesday.

"Ibarbo was tired and Pjanic had cramp, as he hadn't played for a while. We were more incisive in the second half with the strikers running into space more. To introduce Doumbia and change system it took too long, as we didn't know if Seydou Keita could continue.

"I think our problem tonight was more playing from the back than the strikers. We made too many mistakes and were unlucky on Ibarbo's chance. We need to be more efficient in front of goal too, as we had the chances to score a second and win the game.

"It was a very even game, but we made some bad choices in defence on the second goal. Lukas Podolski's through ball got a deflection off Daniele De Rossi and became perfect for Mauro Icardi.

"In general the team showed good quality and it was nothing like our last performance against Atalanta."
