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."
