Half-Time Report: Struggling Parma lead Inter Milan at interval

Bottom-of-the-table Parma are leading Inter Milan 1-0 at the break of their Serie A clash at the Stadio Ennio Tardini.

The hosts made a dream start to the contest by edging ahead with less than five minutes played.

Paolo de Ceglie converted Andrea Rispoli's cross into the box, putting the ball beyond Samir Handanovic down low.

Joel Obi jumped highest to force Antoni Mirante into action shortly after to deny the Nerazzurri, while Zdravko Kuzmanovic squandered a clear opening shortly after as he sent his header wide of the target.

Inter continued to push for a leveller as half time approached, but they were unable to create any clear-cut openings as Parma ensured that they would go into the interval ahead.
