体坛英语资讯：AC Milan within one point of Seria A title

MILAN, May 1 -- AC Milan beat Bologna 1-0 to move within one point of their first Serie A title since 2002 on Sunday.

They could be spared the effort to win the point if Inter Milan fail to beat Fiorentina next week.

French midfielder Mathieu Flamini turned out to be the hero as he scored the only goal of the game early in the first period and then Milan held out comfortably against opponents who lacked ambition.

Giampaolo Pazzini's two injury time goals on Saturday night gave Inter a 2-1 win at Cesena, and delayed Milan's celebration as the champions.

Milan got the dream start as they wanted after just eight minutes as Robinho slipped the ball forward to Flamini who played it one side of Miguel Britos and ran around the other leaving him face to face with goalkeeper Emiliano Viviano.

The Frenchman's first shot was straight at the keeper but it squirmed under his body and Flamini was first to the rebound to slide home into an empty net.

Udinese handed Lazio a big advantage in the race for fourth place as they were thrashed 5-2 at Fiorentina, for whom both Gaetano D'Agostino and Alessio Cerci scored a brace.

It means if Lazio beat Juventus at home on Monday night they will be four points clear of their rivals with just three games to play.

At the bottom an injury time goal from Daniele Mannini gave Sampdoria a 3-3 draw at home to Brescia, moving them a point clear of the relegation zone.

Brescia missed the chance to close the gap as they remain second bottom and five points from safety.

Bari, who host Roma later on Sunday, are already relegated while Lecce, who lost 1-0 at Chievo, round out the bottom three.
