Half-Time Report: Goalless between Inter Milan, Fiorentina in Serie A clash

It is goalless at the break in the Serie A contest between Inter Milan and Fiorentina at the San Siro.

The visitors had the first opening of the game when Samir Handanovic denied Khouma Babacar as he attempted to turn Alessandro Diamanti's cross towards the bottom corner.

Inter hit back at Fiorentina as Fredy Guarin raided down the right and managed to evade the challenge of Manuel Pasqual to fire a low ball across the face of goal, but no player in a black shirt was there to turn the ball home.

Vincenzo Montella's men had a great opportunity to take the lead when Nenad Tomovic managed to run to the byline and then lift a dangerous cross into the box, but Jasmin Kurtic could only guide his strike on the half-volley over the bar.

The home side went closer in the 35th minute when Guarin won the ball just outside the box and carved out enough space for a shot, only for the strike to clatter off the post and bounce clear.
