MILAN - Luis Figo and Alvaro Recoba scored the goals as Inter coasted to a 3-1 home victory over Lazio in Serie A Week 30 to remain two points behind second-placed AC Milan, who won away to Udinese.

Figo put Inter ahead on 37 minutes with his fifth league goal for Inter. After meeting a Recoba cross in the Lazio area, the Portuguese winger switched from his left to right foot to gain a yard of space then crashed a low shot past Peruzzi.

Recoba increased Inter's lead in the first minute of the second half. The Uruguayan forward pounced on a suicidal backwards header by Oddo then nodded past Peruzzi to score his fourth Serie A goal of the season.

Former Nerazzurri striker Goran Pandev gave Lazio a lifeline eight minutes later with a close-range shot past Toldo from Zauri's cross, but Recoba restored Inter's two-goal lead in the 72nd minute with a diagonal shot into the bottom left corner after taking Veron's inch-perfect through ball into the Biancocelesti box.

Inter are in home action again this Wednesday evening with Udinese in the first leg of the Tim Cup semis.
