Inter coach Simone Inzaghi felt no need to give his players a dressing down after Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Bologna.

The Nerazzurri saw a six-game winning streak come to an end in Serie A, with Emil Holm's goal midway through the first half ensuring a share of the spoils for the visitors at San Siro.

Inter went a goal down after 15 minutes but quickly bounced back through Denzel Dumfries, and Lautaro Martinez put them in front ahead of the break.

Yet a disjointed second-half display saw them have to settle for a point that left them three shy of leaders Napoli.

"We are not happy at all, but I have nothing to reproach the lads for," Inzaghi said.

"They played an excellent match, against a worthy opponent. Bologna must be recognised for having played an excellent, organised game.

"Despite some numerical difficulties, the lads put in a great performance. We had many situations [but] we could have done better, like their two goals which were both deflections.

"However, I saw an excellent team against a physical opponent."

Bologna had beaten Inter in two of their previous four competitive meetings, so Matteo Darmian aimed to take the positives.

"When we go on the pitch we want to take the victory, especially at home," said Inter defender Darmian.

"We had a good reaction, even taking the lead, then we suffered their equaliser. We take a point in a positive way, having made 44 points in the first 19 games is an important result.

"I think that we had an important first half of the season.

"Maybe we didn't start in the best way [but] we got back on track and I don't think we should make comparisons with last year.

"We have to continue what we've been doing. We are in a good position and we have to continue like this."
