Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi applauded his side after they held on for a slender 1-0 home win against RB Leipzig on Tuesday to go top of the Champions League standings. An own goal by RB Leipzig defender Castello Lukeba put Inter in front in the 27th minute before the Italian champions let their guard down in the second half and the visitors threatened an equaliser.

Simone Inzaghi's Inter will face RB Leipzig at San Siro on Tuesday for a key Champions League clash where the Nerazzurri can put themselves in excellent position for a spot for at least the play-in round of the knockout stage of the tournament.
