( CNN ) -- Striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic was sent off as Italian Serie A leaders AC Milan wasted a chance to extend their advantage after being held to a 1-1 home draw by bottom side Bari on Sunday . After nearest rivals Inter were held 1-1 at Brescia on Friday , a Milan victory would have seen the Rossoneri move seven points clear at the top of the table . However , in the end , Milan were thankful for a late Antonio Cassano goal to deprive the visitors of a shock victory . Milan crashed out of the Champions League to Tottenham in midweek -- and another defeat looked on the cards when Bari went ahead six minutes before half-time . Almiron took a quick free-kick past Milan 's defensive wall for Hungarian Gergely Rudolf to run onto and shoot across goalkeeper Christian Abbiati . Ibrahimovic had the ball in the net on the hour mark , but his goal was ruled out for handball , and the Swedish international was then sent off for hitting out at Marco Rossi . Bari , who remain 12 points from safety , then wasted two golden opportunities to wrap the points , before Cassano levelled with eight minutes remaining , volleying home Luca Antonini 's pull-back . Elsewhere , third-placed Napoli closed to within a point of Inter after a comfortable 3-1 win at struggling Parma . Raffaele Palladino gave Parma the lead at the break , but Ezequiel Lavezzi then set up Marek Hamsik to level . Hamsik then returned the favor for Lavezzi to make it 2-1 and the home side had Danielle Galloppa sent off before Christian Maggio made the points safe with a late third . In-form Udinese continued their rise up the table , moving up to fourth place with a 4-0 thashing of Cagliari thanks to a double from the Serie A top scorer Antonio Di Natale . Meanwhile , a fiery Rome derby saw Francesco Totti net both goals , the second from the penalty spot , as Roma defeated Lazio 2-0 . Lazio , who finished with nine men after the late dismissals of both Stefan Radu and Francesco Matuzalem , have now lost their last five matches against their city rivals and slip down to fifth place in the table as a result , with Roma two points and one place behind .
