BOLOGNA, Italy (Reuters) - Much of Inter Milan's pre-match ritual was the same ahead of their game against Bologna on Thursday, but there was just one very important thing missing - their opponents, as their Serie A fixture descended into farce.
Rising COVID-19 cases in the Bologna squad led the local health authority (ASL) to place the team into quarantine for 7-10 days from Wednesday, meaning they could not take part in their scheduled home clash with Inter, which was meant to kick off at 1130 GMT on Thursday.
