Milan slip further behind Juventus

CHAMPIONS AC Milan slipped further behind Serie A leaders Juventus when they suffered a shock 1-0 defeat by mid-table Bologna at the San Siro yesterday.

Milan’s second loss in-a-row, after last week’s reverse at Livorno, leaves them eight adrift of Juventus, who won 2-1 at bottom club Atalanta.

AS Roma rose to fourth spot as they fought back from two goals down to beat Messina 3-2 at the Olympic Stadium. Two goals from Christian Vieri against Palermo last night powered Inter Milan to third.
