Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi has praised his players for standing up to hosts Lazio in a challenging opening half hour Monday night before turning the performance into one of club's most dominant in Serie A.

Lazio showed greater determination at the start but the defending champions grew into the game and stormed to a 6-0 win, scoring quick-fire goals either side of halftime in a superb display that silenced the Stadio Olimpico.
