Torino coach Ivan Juric was satisfied after their 1-1 draw at Cagliari on Monday night.

Antonio Sanabria gave Toro the lead at half-time, but Joao Pedro struck back with a wonder goal for the Sardinians.

“We had three or four scoring opportunities at the end, where we could have done better," Juric told Sky Italia. “But we would have liked to take a step forward in terms of play and we did much less than we usually do.

“I saw some tired lads who struggled to develop the game. In the last 20 minutes we broke up and created a lot. There's certainly a bit of regret."

Juric continued: “[Tommaso] Pobega had a problem with his flexor, [Alessandro] Buongiorno was tired, we struggled to build from the back.

“Yes, we held up quite well, but in terms of play we felt a bit tired. The road is long. We would have liked to give continuity, forgetting the 140 goals conceded in the last two years.

“There have been improvements and I have seen great progress."
