MILAN — Brazilian striker Gabriel ’Gabigol’ Barbosa handed Inter Milan all three points and kept his side within reach of the European places with his maiden Serie A strike in a 1-0 win at Bologna on Sunday. Coach Stefano Pioli gave Rodrigo Palacio a rare start up front, with Eder, Antonio Candreva and Perisic giving the Argentine striker plenty of support. But Bologna were a tough nut to crack, and Inter were wasteful throughout until Barbosa fired an easy tap-in past Angelo Da Costa with nine minutes toplay. Crosses were coming thick and fast into the Bologna area from both flanks but Inter were making little headway. Inter then had Handanovic to thank for saving the points at the death by rushing off his line to deny Vasilis Torosidis.
