– Serie A leaders AC Milan were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Udinese on Friday, leaving the door for Internazionale to wipe out their advantage at the top of the Serie A table.

– Udinese had the better of the first-half chances, but the league leaders broke the deadlock in the 29th minute with their only other meaningful attack of the opening period, with Portugal forward Rafael Leao firing home.

– The visitors continued to press after the break and deservedly levelled through Destiny Udogie in the 66th minute.

– Leao had Milan’s best chance to win it late on, but his lofted effort was cleared off the line much to the San Siro’s frustration, with Udinese otherwise continuing to look the most threatening until the final whistle.

– Second-placed Inter take on Genoa later on Friday, knowing victory will see them move level on points with their rivals, having played one game less, while the draw helped Udinese climb to 14th.
