Conte proud as Inter Milan lead table; break record

Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte is delighted to be top of the table after victory over SPAL.

The Nerazzurri leapfrogged Juventus, who drew 2-2 with Sassuolo today, with this 2-1 win.

Conte remarked: "We've been working since Day One to make an impact and annoy the other teams. Being back on top of the table after 14 rounds makes us proud, because we know the journey we've been through to get here.

“At the same time, it should give us positive enthusiasm, push us to do even better and control the game without suffering to the end the way we did today, because in those circumstances a cross or deflected shot can change everything."

The result, courtesy of two goals from Lautaro Martinez, sees Inter record their best ever start to a Serie A season, winning 12 of the opening 14 rounds.
