Inter are planning to appeal the decision by the Italian FA to go ahead with their away fixture against Bologna in Serie A to the Italian Olympic Committee’s arbitration court.

This according to Italian news outlet Gazzetta.it, who report that the Nerazzurri are not yet ready to give up in their efforts to have the match awarded as an automatic 3-0 win rather than played at a different date.

The appeals board of the FIGC, or Italian FA, officially denied the Nerazzurri’s appeal to have the match postponed earlier today.

They cited the decision by the regional health authority of Emilia-Romagna as sufficient reason for the Bologna team not to have shown up to the match.

However, the Nerazzurri still feel that since their team showed up to the stadium and took to the pitch for 45 minutes before it was clear that the Rossoblu players would not show up, the January 6 match should be seen as having been forfeited.

Inter see their next move as taking the case to the Italian Olympic Committee arbitration court, although it remains to be seen when the case will be heard.
