Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi was delighted with Friday night's victory over Spezia.
The result keeps them in touch with leaders AC Milan.
Inzaghi said: "We kept out heads; we were always in the game and it wasn't straightforward. We were up against a team on decent form in a stadium which has given Spezia a real boost this season. We knew that we had to put in a big performance; it's a huge win which we were keen to get in order to keep our run of form going.
Inzaghi commented on the performance of the Nerazzurri's midfielders: “Spezia man-marked Marcelo Brozovic, firstly with Viktor Kovalenko and then with Kevin Agudelo. Hakan Calhanoglu often dropped back to give us another option there and played great, as did Nicolo Barella. He was a real menace for Spezia, always moving in between the lines.
"Since the start of the season we've always tried to put a defender in the opposition's box. Danilo D'Ambrosio is capable of going forward and contributing in this way and he played a big role in Brozovic's goal."
