"This was very important period given the opponents: Serie A is levelled upwards and every game brings with it a series of pitfalls," Inzaghi said.
"We have to have some continuity, there are still two games left before closing the period against Celtic and Lecce."

The Scottish champions are currently placed at the top of the group standings having collected seven points from three matches.
Celtic head coach Neil Lennon says their recent win over Hibernian has given his side a massive boost ahead of their clash with Lazio.
“We know what a huge incentive it is to go to Rome and get a result, and off the back of the semi-final win and the feel-good factor, psychologically, the players will all be in a good place," he said.
“It’s a titanic game ahead of us, we know the calibre of opposition we’ve got on Thursday night in Lazio, but it’s not beyond us.”
