Thiago Motta Plays Down Juve's Title Chances Despite Holding Inter To 4-4 Draw

A topsy-turvy game at the San Siro Stadium saw Inter Milan take the lead but Juventus roared back with two quick-fire goals to take control before the hosts regained command with two goals in quick succession going into the break.

Inter Milan stretched their lead through Denzel Dumfries early in the second period but substitute Kenan Yildiz scored twice to ensure a share of the spoils.

Juventus are third on the league log, one point behind second placed Inter and five adrift leaders Napoli.

Motta believes Juventus are still a side in transition compared to the two sides above them on the table.

"Not at this moment. We delivered a solid performance against one of the favourites for the Scudetto, alongside Napoli, who have maintained the core of their squad from a year and a half ago," Motta told DAZN.

"Right now, they’re ahead and capable of competing until the end for the title. While today was a good performance, we need to keep our feet on the ground.

"We’ll continue on our path, sticking to our ideas and our growth process. We’ll see what we’re capable of when the time comes. I’m being honest; I speak as things are.

"We sought something more in terms of both play and the right spirit; we wanted a different outcome after a first half filled with unfortunate incidents.

"They could have increased their lead but didn’t, and in the end, we could have won it. However, we need to understand why we perform well at times and struggle against the opponent's game at others."
