AC Milan fell further adrift of the Serie A top four as their slow start to the season continued with a goalless draw against Juventus.

Inter Milan moved top of Serie A on Saturday after a first-half blitz led to the Italian champions sweeping sorry Verona aside 5-0 and going two points clear, while AC Milan played out an uneventful goal-less draw with Juventus.

AC Milan go into their clash with Juventus six points adrift of their unbeaten opponents in the Serie A standings, and while they have plenty of respect for their rivals, fear does not come into it, manager Paulo Fonseca said on Friday.

USMNT star Pulisic has been one of Milan’s best players this season but was omitted from the staring lineup against Juve.

Nil-Nil at the San Siro between AC Milan and Juventus, at the end of a match tightly contested affair. Juve were on top in the opening stages: the Bianconeri, without Dusan Vlahovic today, fielded a line-up that was nonetheless attack-minded, with four forwards in Francisco Conceicao, Kenan Yildiz, Weston McKennie and Teun Koopmeiners.
