MILAN — In Serie A action on Wednesday, Inter Milan was unable to capitalize on their competitors faltering, resulting in a 2-2 tie against Bologna.
Despite this outcome, Inter closed the gap to just three points behind Napoli, who currently leads the league, and they have a game in hand to potentially reclaim the top spot.
