Record: Rafa's majestic defence!

Only three goals conceded in seven matches, in other words a spectacular performance from the Inter defence in this flying Serie A start. Since the introduction of the three point system in the league, the Nerazzurri had never achieved such numbers in the back, in fact the last time that only three goals were conceded by this point of the season was back in the 1988/89 season, and that team went down in history as the Record breaking Inter. All this clearly contributes to a feeling of pride for Benitez and his men, especially considering that some journalists criticised the changes the Madrid man had brought to the defensive phase.
