Half-Time Report: Bologna leading Inter Milan at the break

Bologna hold a one-goal advantage over Inter Milan at half time in their Serie A clash at the Stadio Renato Della-Ara.

Just as the visitors had began to settle into possession, they were struck on the counter in the 13th minute, as Alessandro Diamanti drove into the final third to find Panagiotis Kone, who fired through the legs of Samir Handanovic.

Rodrigo Palacio tested Gianluca Curci from 12 yards out, although he hit his effort straight at the goalkeeper.

The Argentine forward then missed a glorious opportunity to equalise when Jonathan's chipped cross presented him with a header from eight yards out, but he failed to find the target.

Alvaro Pereira, who came on for the injured Yuto Nagatomo, spurned another great chance before the break following good work from Saphir Taider.
