Antonio Candreva says Simone Inzaghi deserves the Lazio job after victory over Inter Milan.

Candreva struck from the spot in the 2-0 win.

“We needed this boost to our self-esteem," Candreva told Mediaset Premium.

“We are having a positive final spell to the season and the Coach is transmitting good ideas to the team. He deserves a great future.

“I am not the one who decides if he stays or not, but I do hope he remains, because he deserves it.

“There are regrets for this season, as we have the quality, but unfortunately that's not enough at this level. It was a season of ups and downs, so that's disappointing."
