MILAN (Reuters) - Inter Milan missed a penalty, conceded an equaliser, grabbed a late winner and survived a siege on their goal before beating Empoli 2-1 on Sunday to qualify for next season's Champions League while sending their luckless opponents into Serie B.

Radja Nainggolan scored the decisive goal in the 81st minute as Inter pipped their neighbours AC Milan for the fourth and final Serie A place in next season's Champions League.
