Roma cannot catch Inter Milan, insists Ranieri

Roma coach Claudio Ranieri has ruled out a Scudetto challenge, despite their victory at Fiorentina yesterday.

A late Mirko Vucinic strike gave the visitors their win.

"There is no such thing as an anti-Inter this season," insisted Ranieri. "There is Inter and that's it. They are too strong and cannot be caught.

"We showed that we know how to survive pressure and emerge unscathed. Julio Sergio was simply extraordinary.

"I also note the performances of Daniele De Rossi, Mirko Vucinic and everyone. They all showed the hunger to win.

"Fiorentina played very well and we were a little lucky, so that always helps."
