Conte: Inter must use bitterness and disappointment to bounce back from Bologna beating

Bologna handed the Nerazzurri their first Serie A loss since the season resumed and the coach wants a response against Hellas Verona

Antonio Conte called on his Inter players to channel their "bitterness and disappointment" in a positive way when they face Hellas Verona on Thursday.

The Nerazzurri suffered their first Serie A loss since the resumption of the season on Sunday when they conceded two late goals to be defeated 2-1 by Bologna.

Conte's side cannot afford many such slip-ups given leaders Juventus have an 11-point advantage over third-placed Inter, though AC Milan's win over the reigning champions on Monday has given the chasing pack hope.
