Internazionale midfielder Thiago Motta has dismissed suggestions that the race for this season's Scudetto is now over.

The Nerazzurri moved ten points clear of city rivals AC Milan after a 3-0 win over Cagliari on Sunday.

Milan were held to a goalless draw in Bologna, while AS Roma moved up to second place, eight points behind the reigning champions.

But despite claims that the title race is now effectively over, Motta believes it is still to early to begin thinking about another Serie A success.

"The league is not finished and there is still plenty to go," declared the Brazilian.

"If you make just one or two mistakes those behind you could catch up. We have worked hard and we hope to continue like this.

"Only by doing this can we win the league and if we carry on, those behind will find it hard to catch us."
