With rivals AC Milan not in action until Sunday against Lazio, Inter took full advantage to move to the Serie A summit after beating a Roma side who had gone 12 games unbeaten in the Italian top-flight before their trip to the San Siro.

Flying full-back Denzel Dumfries fired his side into the lead on the half-hour mark, before a fine solo effort from Marcelo Brozovic double the dominant hostsโ€™ advantage five minutes before the break.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan fired home in the 85th minute but it was too little too late for the visitors. Interโ€™s fourth successive league win moved them on to 72 points from 33 matches, one ahead of Milan. Roma stay fifth on 58 points.
