Rafael Leao was unable to prevent AC Milan from falling further behind bitter rivals Inter in the Serie A title race, after an uneventful 0-0 draw with Juventus at the Stadio San Siro on Sunday night.
With the Bianconeri defending deep and seemingly happy to leave the San Siro with a point, the Rossoneri failed to capitalise on their dominance and had just four shots on target.
