Montella: Inter celebrated as if it had won

AC Milan boss Vincenzo Montella says his players should feel proud after Inter celebrated their last-gasp derby draw like it was a victory.

Ivan Perisic scored in stoppage time to grab a 2-2 draw in Stefano Pioli's first match at the helm of Inter after Suso's double – either side of Antonio Candreva's strike – looked like it would give Montella's men victory.

However, the Rossoneri head coach insisted on positivity after the match, highlighting Inter's ecstatic response to the draw – Pioli ran on to the pitch to celebrate – as a sign of how far Milan have come given their opponents were tipped to be Scudetto candidates.
