Lazio coach Inzagh praises Inter Milan fans after victory

Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi hailed their resilience for victory over Inter Milan.

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic's header in the first-half proved the winner.

“We are in a good period of form, despite losing Stefan Radu and Patric to injury, the result did not change and the performance remained stable," Inzaghi told Sky Sport Italia.

“We showed character in a marvellous atmosphere like San Siro. Although we allowed a few crosses, the defenders and goalkeeper did well to keep everything under control."

He also stated: “We mustn't stop now. We have to keep going with this intensity and attitude. We knew with Ivan Perisic and Matteo Politano on the field that we'd be dealing with a lot of crosses, with Matias Vecino helping to fill the penalty area. Strakosha was courageous today and impressed me."
