Inzaghi remains hopeful of Inter title push despite falling 11 points behind leaders

Inter head coach Simone Inzaghi remains hopeful of a title charge despite Sunday’s 2-0 loss to Juventus leaving them 11 points off the pace in Serie A.

The Nerazzurri were downed in the Derby d’Italia by second-half goals from Adrien Rabiot and Nicolo Fagioli, snapping their four-game winning run.

The Bianconeri climb above Inter into fifth, while Inzaghi’s side slid down to seventh on 24 points from 13 games, well behind leaders Napoli.

“There are 25 games to go from now to the end,” Inzaghi told reporters about their title prospects.

“This is a defeat that slows us down a lot with the progress of this championship but we must be good at putting this defeat behind us immediately.

“We have to improve in these matches, the performance has been there but we have to be better.”
