Inter have conceded a mere three goals in their last nine Serie A matches, keeping six clean sheets in the process.

The Nerazzurri’s new-found defensive solidity has been key to their rise up the standings since Stefano Pioli took charge.

Considering that 14 goals were conceded during Frank De Boer’s 11-match reign, Pioli’s rejuvenation of Inter’s defence becomes even more impressive.

In fact, the team only scored 13 goals in those same 11 matches.

Now, the team appears to have found the right balance which means the defence is suffering much less than before.
