Inter Milan head coach Simone Inzaghi hailed his players' efforts after they were beaten 1-0 by Manchester City in Saturday's Champions League final in Istanbul.

Inter refused to let their heads drop, first hitting the woodwork through Federico Dimarco before Romelu Lukaku, who had earlier stepped off the bench, was somehow denied by Ederson. The Italian outfit also went close again in the dying seconds, only for Ederson to keep them out once more.
Though they failed to find a way past the City shot-stopper, it was not for the want of trying. And for Inzaghi, who was never expected to lead Inter to the final this season, it was a performance that he could only be proud of.
