( CNN ) -- It could prove to be a pivotal moment in the Italian Serie A title race -- Juventus escaped with a 1-1 draw at AC Milan on Saturday after Sulley Muntari 's first-half goal was controversially disallowed despite clearly crossing the line . With champions and league leaders Milan leading 1-0 at the time , Juve keeper Gianluigi Buffon desperately clawed back the Ghana midfielder 's header from a corner -- and the referee waved play on to the dismay of the home players and their fans . `` That incident that certainly falsified the result . Either the line was drawn wrong and was a bit too big , '' Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri told reporters . `` There is no need to see the replays . It was pretty obvious from all around the stadium . '' The visitors also had a goal disallowed in the second half as Alessandro Matri was deemed to be offside in a very marginal decision , but the substitute leveled in the 83rd minute with his 10th goal this season to maintain Juve 's unbeaten record after 24 matches . Antonio Conte 's team were reduced to 10 men five minutes later when Arturo Vidal was sent off for a cynical foul on Mark van Bommel , but held on to stay one point behind Milan with a game in hand . The Rossoneri had taken the lead after 14 minutes when Antonio Nocerino fired in a deflected shot against his former club , whose defender Leonardo Bonucci gave the ball away to Robinho with a careless pass . January loan signing Muntari thought he had added to midfielder Nocerino 's eighth league goal this season , but the linesman did not flag for the goal despite replays showing the ball went well over the Juve line before Buffon intervened . Third-placed Udinese and Lazio both trail Juve by eight points , but can cut the deficit on Sunday with victories against Bologna and Fiorentina respectively . In Saturday 's other match , mid-table Genoa snatched a 2-2 draw against Parma thanks to two late goals from striker Rodrigo Palacio . The Argentine striker followed up his saved penalty to pull one back in the 78th minute , then took his tally to 14 for this season deep into time added on . Parma led in the sixth minute through defender Massimo Gobbi , then striker Sergio Floccari made it 2-0 eight minutes after the break against his former team . In Spain , Levante moved up into the fourth and last Champions League qualification place after snatching a 2-1 win at European rivals Espanyol in Saturday 's late match . Substitute Ruben Suarez smashed in a freekick off the defensive wall in the 89th minute to seal the points after it had looked like the Barcelona-based hosts had earned a draw thanks to a 75th-minute header from Nigeria striker Kala Uche , who came on as a substitute . It was Valencia-based Levante 's first win in nine La Liga matches . Malaga had temporaily taken fourth after thrashing bottom club Real Zaragoza 5-1 , but ended the day in fifth -- one point above Espanyol . Racing Santander and Sporting Gijon remained in the bottom three after sharing the points in a 1-1 draw , while Real Betis and Getafe had the same result in a mid-table clash . Spain 's top three teams -- leaders Real Madrid , champions Barcelona and third-placed Valencia -- will play on Sunday .
Juventus remain the only unbeaten team in Italy after 1-1 draw at AC Milan on Saturday . Champions Milan led 1-0 before having a Sulley Muntari goal controversially disallowed . Result left 10-man Juve one point behind leaders Milan with a game in hand .
