Inter Milan beat Bologna 2-1 to move provisionally a point above Fiorentina into fourth place in Serie A on Saturday and maintain its bid for the final Champions League spot.
Bologna was the only team in Serie A not to have conceded a goal from a corner this season but it did so twice in four minutes.
Danilo D'Ambrosio headed a corner goalward and Ivan Perisic nodded the ball in from almost on the goal-line to give Inter the lead in the 72nd minute.
D'Ambrosio volleyed in the second goal, and substitute Franco Brienza netted a consolation in the final minute.
Fiorentina plays Hellas Verona on Sunday, while third-place Roma - which is two points above Inter - visits Udinese.
Earlier, Empoli drew 1-1 against Sampdoria.
