Lazio defender Luiz Felipe was left frustrated after their 2-2 draw with Cagliari.

The Aquile are without a win in their last three games, including the 1-0 defeat to Galatasaray in the Europa League.

“A bitter draw because we played 45 extraordinary minutes, but we'll learn from this," Luiz Felipe told Lazio Style Radio.

“We went under, and we did well to catch up. Now, we must rest for the important game on Thursday.

“We are going through some difficulty, but it's not an excuse. We must stay focused for 90 minutes. We can't enter the second half and concede after 20 seconds.

“The coach always asks us to play and not play long balls, he gives us confidence. Today, we did well in the first 45 minutes."
