Torino boss Moreno Longo praised his players in defeat to AC Milan.

Ante Rebic scored the only goal of the game on Monday night.

Longo stated afterwards: “I can be satisfied with the spirit of the lads, the team never lost hope.

“We always tried to remain in the match. That was a positive aspect of the game, we are aware of having to improve in other aspects however.

“I don't like looking at the table, we are realistic, our team is in a fight and we are aware that we need to go into battle to achieve what has become our objective as soon as possible."
