Inter struggling ahead of Champions League quarterfinals
ROME (AP) — Inter Milan is in far-from-perfect form with a Champions League quarterfinal game against Benfica coming up. The Nerazzurri were beaten 1-0 at home by Fiorentina for their third straight loss in Serie A on Saturday. Giacomo Bonaventura headed in a rebound early in the second half shortly after Inter center forward Romelu Lukaku inexplicably missed a wide open close-range chance. It was Fiorentina’s eighth straight win across all competitions and the Viola extended their unbeaten run to 10 games. Juventus beat relegation-threatened Hellas Verona 1-0 with a second-half goal from Moise Kean. Atalanta beat last-place Cremonese 3-1 to move up to fifth.
