Inter Milan quashed almost any hope their city rivals AC Milan had of winning the Serie A title by jumping 10 points clear at the top following Saturday’s 2-0 win over Lazio at the San Siro.

Sweden forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the inspiration behind the win, scoring one goal and creating the other for the reigning champions. Real Madrid are rumoured to be chasing his signature and during Zlatan’s goal celebration he was jeered by his own support as he raised a finger over his lips.

Inter came into this game without a win in their last three matches and having seen Milan halve a previous deficit of 14 points to their bitter city rivals.

But any thoughts that Jose Mourinho’s team might be cracking under the pressure were dispelled by Ibrahimovic’s magical right boot.

And Mourinho said it is only a matter of time before his team, who need two wins from their final four matches to do so, can celebrate the title.
