Rodrigo Palacio supplied the only cheer of a forgettable evening for the Nerazzurri, as they were soundly beaten in the Czech capital

Inter suffered a first-half capitulation and slumped to their second consecutive Europa League defeat as Sparta Prague ran out deserved 3-1 winners at Generali Arena.

Striker Vaclav Kadlec scored twice in the first half of a contest in which Sparta were given an easy ride by an Inter defence that looked vulnerable throughout.

Rodrigo Palacio pulled one back for the visitors in an improved second half, but the game ended miserably for Frank de Boer's side as Andrea Ranocchia was sent off and Mario Holek scored late on to make it 3-1.
