Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi was satisfied with their 0-0 draw against Real Sociedad.
The result means they finish runners up in their Champions League group.
Inzaghi said: “We knew that second place would make for a tougher draw, but I don't want to see sad faces, I only want to see smiles as we finished the group unbeaten, we are in the Round of 16 for the third year running. We are very satisfied.
“We wanted another win in front of our fans, we didn't manage it tonight, but we tried until the 95th minute. We were up against a quality opponent and Inter had the best scoring opportunities.
“Real Sociedad are a great side, we only allowed them a bit of possession in the first 25 minutes and never risked anything then either. The pity is that we didn't convert the chances, but we finish unbeaten and are second only on goal difference."
He added: “We'll see what the draw has to say. We finished second in the group last season and reached the Final, after all."
