Juventus boss Antonio Conte has urged his side to continue to improve each week following their 2-1 win over Inter at the San Siro.

The league leaders remain two points clear at the top of the Serie A table after twice taking the lead through goals from Mirko Vucinic and Claudio Marchisio. Meanwhile, Maicon's goal was not enough for Claudio Ranieri's side, who remain near the foot of the table.

"Tonight three important points arrived to put us in first in the standings," Conte told reporters. "It is a great reward for the work and sacrifices of my men. We looked to do our best. It is not easy to come to San Siro and beat a side like Inter.

"It was an intense match, with great pressing and a little tiredness from both sides after three matches in eight days.

"We still lack a bit of cynicism: this game should have been put to rest earlier. We must continuously improve, to be more present and to know how to rest with the ball."

Juventus travel to Stadio San Paolo next weekend to face fifth-place Napoli.
