Serie A: Juventus, Milan share points in battle for second spot

Juventus and Milan battled to a hard-fought 0-0 draw in a Serie A battle for second place, with both teams missing key chances to steal victory.

Despite Juventus having the better opportunities, including Danilo hitting the woodwork and a crucial goal-line clearance by Malick Thiaw, Milan managed to hold on for the point.

The match was crucial for both sides, with Inter already Scudetto title winners.

While Milan faced defensive issues with several key players suspended or injured, Juventus hoped to bounce back from a midweek defeat to Lazio, even though they succeeded in qualifying for the Coppa Italia Final.

Yunus Musah’s deflected attempt and Dusan Vlahovic’s dangerous free kick were among key highlights of he match.

Both teams had opportunities to clinch victory late in the game, with Juve’s Arkadiusz Milik denied by a brave save from Marco Sportiello and Milan’s Malick Thiaw clearing a rebound off the line.

Despite efforts by Juve, Milan are still leading in the second spot race with five points.
