Juventus president Giovanni Cobolli Gigli admits Inter Milan were impressive on Saturday night in their derby victory.

"Inter looked strong from the start of the championship, in the sense that Inter is the team that has won the Scudetto last season, is even more structured this season, are certainly well coached, and is the first contender to win the title," said the president.

"We do need other teams to take points off them and make their road more difficult.

"I am not talking as an anti-Inter person, but as a fan of Juve.

"Inter will be stronger this season, but Juve have also improved. So we will see what happens on the pitch."
