Inter did not deserve to lose to Roma, claims De Boer

he Dutchman's side slipped to defeat at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night but he felt his team controlled the game and ought to have earned at least a point

Inter boss Frank de Boer claimed that Sunday's 2-1 defeat at the hands of Roma was harsh on his side.
Individual mistakes cost Barcelona
The visitors fell behind for an eighth time in nine competitive games this season when Edin Dzeko fired home from close range after just five minutes.
But after improving in the second half, they equalised through Ever Banega, only to concede what proved to the winner four minutes later.
Substitute Stevan Jovetic's needless foul gifted Roma a free-kick from which Alessandro Florenzi picked out Kostas Manolas, whose header deflected off Mauro Icardi on its way into the net.
The defeat sent Inter down to ninth place in the table, but De Boer insisted that his charges were unfortunate to have left the capital empty-handed.
"We did not deserve to lose," he said. "In the first half we made many mistakes, especially involving [Mohamed] Salah who is very fast and caused us a lot of problems.
"But in the second half we controlled the game and were punished for a silly foul when they made it 2-1.
"1-1 would have been a more deserved result."
