Milan 1-1 Roma



AC Milan missed a golden opportunity to significantly close the gap on Serie A leaders Juventus FC when they were held to a 1-1 draw at home against AS Roma on Sunday.

Shevchenko opener
Victory would have moved Carlo Ancelotti's defending champions within two points of Juve and they began the match incisively, Andriy Shevchenko opening the scoring after just six minutes when he headed in a perfect cross from Cafu.

Montella magic
However, the home side failed to take advantage of a string of chances that came their way and Roma levelled three minutes into the second half when Serie A's top scorer Vincenzo Montella left Milan goalkeeper Dida helpless with a close-range follow-up after hitting the crossbar. Milan pair Rui Costa and Hernán Crespo both missed chances to snatch victory late on.
