Inter Milan defender De Vrij happy defeating Roma: We know how important every point is

Inter Milan defender Stefan de Vrij was pleased with their 3-1 win against Roma.

Inter go top by a point ahead of AC Milan, which face Lazio tonight in Rome.

“Today we saw a team that was fully aware of what it was challenging for," De Vrij told DAZN.

Roma are very strong on the counter-attack, so it was important we attacked with a sense of balance.

"A defender must be ready and command the line if we lose possession, to neutralise a counter."
