The Nerazzurri servant believes his side should look forward, rather than dwell on missed opportunities
Inter have been knocked out of Europe's premier club competition by Manchester United, but Serbian international Dejan Stankovic insists they still have plenty to play for.
"It's a real shame, because the [early Nemanja Vidic] goal did not cut us off at the knees, but it did come too soon. However, we played a good match, because everyone expected Inter to do nothing, instead we created opportunities," he explained in an interview with Inter Channel.
"We need to roll up our sleeves, even if we were waiting two-and-a-half months for these fireworks. We must not throw away the championship."
Inter have a seven point lead atop the Serie A standings and face Fiorentina this weekend.
"The Champions League is a closed chapter now, but we can take positive aspects from this game and eventually resume the journey.
"Now, we have the challenge against Fiorentina, a very important match, considering the break due to national commitments at the end of March. These are crucial upcoming games, let's move forward with our heads held high," concluded the ex-Lazio player.
Stankovic and his teammates kick-off against the Viola on Sunday evening at the San Siro in Round 28 of Serie A action.
