HEAVY CHALLENGE
Striker Alessandro Del Piero replaced Ibrahimovic at the restart but he
failed change Juventus' fortunes.
Milan continued to dominate, a defence-splitting pass by Kaka almost put
Inzaghi through on goal but Buffon reacted quickly.
Gattuso's expulsion following a heavy challenge on Pavel Nedved finally gave
Juventus the space they needed to push forward.
They came close to scoring in the 75th minute through Nedved but his effort
lacked power.
Fourth-placed Fiorentina stayed on 56 points after their game at Cagliari's
Sant'Elia stadium was suspended because of strong winds.
AS Roma, one point behind Fiorentina, squandered a chance to move into one of
the Champions League berths when they slumped to a 3-2 defeat at Ascoli.
