Managerless Inter Milan scored three late goals to climb into the top half of Serie A with an unconvincing victory over promoted Crotone.

Inter, who sacked Frank De Boer on Tuesday, went in front with six minutes left as Ivan Perisic gathered a Mauro Icardi pass and drove into the corner.

Icardi scored the second with a penalty, awarded when he was fouled by Gian Marco Ferrari.

The Argentine striker scored again three minutes into stoppage time.
