Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored twice as Inter Milan restored their seven-point lead at the top of Serie A with a routine 3-0 win over Reggina on Sunday.



Juventus' impressive 4-1 win at Roma came courtesy of two Vincenzo Iaquinta goals with Olof Mellberg and Pavel Nedved also on target for Claudio Ranieri's side.

Roma's consolation came from Simone Loria, who briefly restored parity after the first of Iaquinta's goals.

AC Milan were held to a 0-0 draw at Napoli and are now 14 points off the pace in 3rd place.

Napoli had a valid goal disallowed in the first half and came the closest to breaking the deadlock in a tense encounter at the Stadio San Paolo, but they remain without a win in more than two months.

Genoa defended fourth place with a 2-0 win against 10-man Udinese.

Giuseppe Sculli opened the scoring in the 59th minute, before Udinese forward Alexis Sanchez was sent off in the 73rd.

The visitors pressed for an equaliser but were caught on the counter-attack as Diego Milito secured the win for Genoa in stoppage-time.

Fiorentina beat Siena 1-0 in the Tuscan derby to hold onto 5th place.

The game had looked to be heading for a draw, with Fiorentina unable to break down the visitors' solid defence, but Adrian Mutu found a way through with less than 20 minutes left for the Champions League hopefuls.
