Brazil Star Admits Inter Milan ‘Didn’t Take Advantage Of Our Chances’ In Serie A Title Race Vs Napoli | OneFootball

Carlos Augusto admits that Inter Milan “didn’t take our chances” in the Serie A title race against Napoli this season.

The Brazilian spoke to Italian broadcaster DAZN, via FCInterNews, after the Nerazzurri’s 2-0 win over Como.

Inter Milan have not managed to successfully defend their Serie A title crown.

The Nerazzurri took it down to the last day of the season. They were just a point behind Napoli going into today’s matches.

And Inter did their bit. They got a convincing win away to Como to close out the league season.

However, the Nerazzurri were also relying on Cagliari to do them a favour against Napoli. And that did not happen.

So Inter will be left with the feeling of regret after the long season.

The Nerazzurri have certainly had their positive moments. Particularly when they looked to have taken control of the Serie A title race in the spring.

But then, back-to-back losses to Bologna and Roma proved to be a hammer blow to Inter’s title ambitions.

Furthermore, Inter have dropped too many points cheaply throughout the campaign. 2-2 draws against the likes of Genoa, Parma, and Lazio, and a failure to beat AC Milan were among the decisive results for the Nerazzurri.

After today’s match against Como, Inter defender Carlos Augusto reflected that “It was a long season.”

The Brazilian admitted that “we had some chances, that we weren’t able to take advantage of.”

“But it was still a great season,” Augusto insisted.

“Now we have a final that’s everyone’s dream. We’re going there to play a great match.”

“We’ve had a great Champions League season,” Augusto continued. “It’s not because we didn’t win the league we’re going all-in on Europe.”

“We didn’t take advantage of our chances. Those important points are the ones we’re missing in the end.”

“Now we focus on Europe,” Carlos Augusto added. “It’s a big week for us.”
