Inter Milan striker Alexis: Lack of focus gave Benfica their goals

Inter Milan striker Alexis Sanchez was happy to complete their comeback at Benfica.

Alexis struck from the spot for the 3-3 draw in Portugal.

The veteran impressed alongside Marko Arnautovic and said: "It's the first time together since the beginning, he's a great player, I've always said it. And nothing, we lost 3-0, but we showed the determination of a team of champions that always thinks about winning.

"The personality was missing. We woke up a little and I think the goals they scored before were just a question of concentration.

"We still have to improve many things but we are on the right path."
