Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli sees the glass half full for the Bianconeri after an ‘incredible’ 4-4 draw against Inter on Sunday.
Inter and Juventus played one of the most incredible Derby d’Italia ever on Sunday, leaving the San Siro turf with a 4-4 draw.
The Old Lady recovered from two goals down in the second half thanks to a brace from Kenan Yildiz.
“It was an incredible game with strong emotions. We are satisfied with our team spirit, and we have to start from here. We’ll analyse the errors, but the team spirit was excellent,” Locatelli said at a press conference attended by Football Italia on Sunday.

“There was a moment when we suffered; they had chances on 4-2, but there was positivity between us. I think it was an incredible game that people enjoyed watching. You can win or lose individual duels, but it was an incredible match.”
Did Juventus waste two points or earn one?
“It’s a point we earned in such a stadium and against a strong team,” said Locatelli who clearly saw the Juventus glass half full.
“These games must give us self-confidence. We are a young team, and this is a good base to work.
“They are strong teams, but we are also strong. Inter have been playing together for so many years,” concluded the Italy international.
“They are more experienced and prepared than us. We must follow a similar path, work hard and try to improve as we are trying to do.”
