Andrea Stramaccioni: Inter Milan in Champions League race

Inter Milan coach Andrea Stramaccioni has claimed that his side are in the hunt for a Champions League place following Wednesday's 3-1 win at Udinese.

Two goals from Wesley Sneijder and a strike from Ricky Alvarez have moved the Nerazzuri to within just three points of third-placed Lazio.

"Winning at Udinese is never easy," Stramaccioni told Sky Sport Italia. "They were in a good moment, but we had a great display.

"We have collected 11 points in the last five matches, so we are there in the Champions League race. But we have to think about our next match against Cesena.

"Our players have been working really hard, what they showed today was a great response."

Inter host Cesena at the San Siro on Sunday.
