Inter beat Empoli for Inzaghi's 100th victory in the Nerrazurri dugout

The Nerrazurri are 14 points ahead of their city rival, AC Milan, at the top of the Serie A table after Monday's 2-0 home win against Empoli.

Federico Dimarco and Alexis Sanchez found the back of the net for Simone Inzaghi's 100th win as Inter coach.

It took the hosts just six minutes to break the deadlock, as Alessandro Bastoni's cross found Federico Dimarco on the edge of the box. He hit it superbly with his left into the far bottom corner.

The Nerrazurri had a handful of chances to double the lead, as Barella, Pavard and Bastoni were close to scoring. However, it stayed 1-0 on the scoreboard until the last few minutes of the game. Denzel Dumfries got down the right and crossed it to Alexis on the far post, who found it easy to turn it into an empty net from six yards.
