Filippo Inzaghi praises AC Milan character following win over Napoli

AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi heaps praise on his players after goals from Jeremy Menez and Giacomo Bonaventura inspire a 2-0 victory over Napoli in Serie A.

AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi has praised the character of his side following their 2-0 victory over Napoli in Serie A.

Goals from Jeremy Menez and Giacomo Bonaventura at the San Siro moved the Italian giants up the domestic standings, while also ending a 12-game unbeaten run for Rafa Benitez's side.

"We've some extraordinary players out injured, including Italy's first-choice full-backs and Alex, but I always believed in the team," Inzaghi told reporters after the game.

"Tonight's performance was a great display of character and I am very, very proud of these players. At times it disappoints me to hear criticism, as losing against Genoa on a set play can happen.

"We are on the right track and need to do a little more to reach the top spots, but I am very happy with the first goal [from Menez] as we had worked on that in training."

The three points has since moved Milan into sixth place in the Serie A table, level on points with seventh-placed Napoli.
