Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte insists he had no problem with AC Milan ace Zlatan Ibrahimovic clashing with Romelu Lukaku last night.

The pair exchanged verbal insults in the first-half of Inter's Coppa Italia win, with the Milan striker seeing red after the break.

"I've been a player so I know the temperament can run high in the field," Conte said.

“The most important thing is to keep yourself in check so it was good to see that Romelu stayed focused afterwards.

"Ibra is a winner, a warrior. Romelu is growing in that respect too so I'm just happy to see him so hot."
