Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Italiano hailed his players after victory over Inter Milan.

Giacomo Bonaventura struck the only goal of the game at San Siro.

“We set ourselves the objective of climbing up the table and making up lost ground," Italiano told DAZN.

“It was a complicated situation we found ourselves in, but we gave a strong response. The game with Verona was the turning point, as that was too important for us and I saw something different in the lads. The real difference was upfront, as both of our strikers got their breakthroughs.

“It was a very entertaining match against Inter, we created many scoring opportunities and the lads deserve credit. Now I owe the players dinner because it was my first ever victory at San Siro."
