Chelsea striker Didier Drogba claims he did not deserve to be sent off against Inter Milan but was more disappointed with the result.
The Blues bowed out of the Champions League on Tuesday night after going down 3-1 on aggregate to the Italian side, managed by former Blues boss Jose Mourinho.
The tie had been delicately poised at 2-1 ahead of the second leg at Stamford Bridge but Chelsea were unable to score the goal they needed as Inter produced an excellent defensive performance.
Samuel Eto'o then struck in the 79th minute to seal Inter's success and Drogba was left to admit the better team had made it through to the quarter-finals.
The Ivorian striker nevertheless insists there is still a lot to play for this season and has switched his attention to domestic matters.
"We didn't play the way we wanted," he told Sky Sports.
"I think Inter stopped us playing the way we wanted and that's what made the game difficult for us.
"It is a difficult result and now we are going to have to focus on the league and the FA Cup."
Drogba was shown a red card for a foul on Thiago Motta in the closing stages to complete a miserable night for Carlo Ancelotti's men.
He thinks the decision was harsh, but concedes it was not a significant incident as Chelsea's European dreams were shattered for another season.
"It is difficult to take because, yes I stepped on his calf, but I don't think I deserved this red card," said Drogba.
"But it is something that happened in the game. The most important thing is that we are out of the competition."
