Antonio Conte: 'Inter Milan win shows improvement'

Juventus coach Antonio Conte believes that today's 2-1 victory over Inter Milan proves that his side have improved in the last six months.

Alessandro Matri's goal proved enough for Juve to win at the San Siro and avenge November's Derby d'Italia defeat to Inter.

Conte paid tribute to his players and insisted that they are in the perfect frame of mind to face Bayern Munich in midweek.

He told Sky Italia: "We achieved a great result, as in my view Inter are capable of beating anyone.

"We proved that we have got better since November. I have to compliment my lads, as they were constantly on point. It is always a Match with a capital M against Inter. We put another brick down on the foundations of the Scudetto and it's a step forward, even if there are teams like Napoli and Milan behind us who can't wait to make the most of any slip-up.

"Juventus now go to Munich with great confidence. We are facing a strong Bayern side, but continue to embrace this dream. In Italy we realised that we are on the right track and now we want to measure ourselves against Europe too."

The Old Lady are now 12 points clear of Napoli ahead of their clash with Torino this evening.
