Bologna v Inter Milan
Mauro Icardi strikes to send Inter Milan back on top of Serie A
Mauro Icardi ended his goal scoring drought to help Inter Milan move provisionally back to the top of the table on Tuesday following a 1-0 win at relegation-threatened Bologna.
It was Inter's first win in five matches and came despite playing the final half hour with 10 men after Felipe Melo was sent off following a somewhat harsh second booking.
Bologna defender Alex Ferrari should have dealt with a through ball from Marcelo Brozovic in the 67th minute but failed to make contact, allowing Adem Ljajic to control on the left and roll across for Icardi to tap into the net from six yards.
It was the Inter captain's first goal in 348 minutes.
Inter moved a point above Roma, while Bologna remained in the relegation zone, a point from safety.
