Inter Milan crushed ten-man Udinese 4-0 today to assure fifth place in Serie A and seal at least Europa League action next season while keeping their Champions League challenge alive.
Inter have 69 points with two games left and cannot be caught by AC Milan who are nine points behind or Atalanta, who have 58 points before playing fourth-place Lazio on Sunday.
AS Roma and Lazio are third and four respectively one point ahead of Inter before both play later today.
"We're still convinced that we can get to the Champions League, but I guess Rome and Lazio would say the same thing," said Inter coach Luciano Spalletti.
"The team have grown, but we must continue to do so in the last two games."
"He might be able to do more when it comes to taking part in the build-up, but already this year he has improved on that. In any case, he's deadly in the penalty area."
