Juventus midfielder Rabiot: Ref decided Inter Milan's victory

Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot hit out at the match officials after defeat at home to Inter Milan.

The Derby d'Italia was wo by a Hakan Calhanoglu penalty, but it was originally parried by Wojciech Szczesny and had to be retaken due to encroachment, the Turkey international scoring at the second attempt.

“I am happy with my performance and that of the team. We had a great game, but unfortunately couldn't score a goal," Rabiot told DAZN.

“Just like in the Champions League, we were only missing a goal. Juve played better in both those games than the other team, as far as I am concerned.

“We hit the woodwork, perhaps should've had a penalty too. The referee decided the match this evening. I think the foul on Denis Zakaria was inside the area. It was an important incident that unfortunately changed the game."
