Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte has called for a reality check from fans has they hit a form blip.

Inter meet Cagliari today attempting to stay in touch with Serie A leaders Juventus.

Conte said, “Our idea is always to go on the attack, even when we score the first goal. We must try to score another goal and not just defend the one we have.

“The fact that we considered a draw away to Lecce to be a negative result shows how much Inter have advanced compared to past seasons. We must keep our feet on the ground, remain humble and accept that draw in the right way.

“People continue to ignore me when I say we are starting a journey, but we have achieved credibility in these six months and that is positive. We mustn't lose sight of reality."
