AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi fully expects his team to bounce back from their first defeat of the season at the weekend when they take on Empoli in Tuscany on Tuesday.
The Rossoneri had beaten Lazio and Parma in their opening two games before falling 1-0 to Juventus at the San Siro on Saturday.
Inzaghi, who replaced Clarence Seedorf at the helm in the summer, was pleased with his team's performance against the Italian champions.
"With the determination we showed against Juventus on Saturday we can go far," Inzaghi told the club's official website. "We held Juve for 71 minutes and we played a very good game in defence.
"Despite the loss, we left that game with our heads held high. - now we turn our attention to Tuesday's game.
