Seven matches were played in the Italian "Serie A" championship on Sunday.
AC Milan took a huge step towards their first national champions title since 2004, narrowly defeating Bologna 1-0 at home.
With three rounds left, Massimiliano Allegri's team is leading Milan's closest pursuer Inter by eight points, so they could secure the first place as early as next weekend. All they need to do is win away against Roma or hope for their rivals' failures.
