Rolando Maran: 'Catania didn't kill Inter Milan off'

Catania coach Rolando Maran has insisted that his side were unlucky in their defeat to Inter Milan and paid for not killing the game off.

The home side had led 2-0 before Inter came back to win 3-2 with a 90th-minute winner.

Maran believes that his side should have kept more possession and thinks that Rodrigo Palacio's introduction was the defining moment for the away team.

"It's such a shame about this comeback, perhaps we should have kept the ball better," Maran told reporters.

"We always tried to score the third goal. We had a few great opportunities and tried to kill the game off, but unfortunately we were unable to take those chances.

"Palacio's introduction was decisive, as he caused us real problems. I don't think it is a deserved defeat."

The win takes Inter above Lazio into fourth place in Serie A.
