The race for a spot in the Europa League next season is still open. Inter wasted a big chance and chances for the Europa League disappearing. Fiorentina crushed Inter at the Artemio Franchi Stadium and is a step back. There are only 5 more games to end the season and the gap to reach to the “Europa Zone” increasing. Atalanta and Lazio are in the 4th and 5th position, respectively.
