UDINE - Ten-man Inter were held 0-0 by Udinese at the Stadio Friuli in Serie A Week 20 - the Nerazzurri's first goalless draw since last October's trip to Palermo.

The league leaders see their advantage cut to five points as second-placed Roma edged out Palermo in Saturday evening's game.

For the second match running Inter were reduced to ten men in the early stages. Cesar, booked for a foul on Mesto in the 21st minute, was sent marching just seconds later after a two-footed tackle on the same player.

Cambiasso squandered a great chance early on, blasting over from ten yards out after latching on to Ibrahimovic's pass.

Udinese looked dangerous on the break after Cesar's dismissal but rarely troubled Inter in the opening half, with Cruz going closest to an opening goal before the break when he sent an angled low shot wide of the far post.

Inter had the better chances of a fast and furious second half at the Friuli, with Ibrahimovic narrowly missing on three occasions and having a brilliant goal ruled out for a presumed foul on Lukovic.

Argentine pair Cruz and Cambiasso also got in on the act, the striker having a low effort saved by Handanovic, and the midfielder heading wide Stankovic's pass.

Udinese failed to use their man advantage to effect, their best chances of the second half falling to Di Natale who swivelled in the box and volleyed over, before forcing Julio Cesar into a save with a well taken effort from distance.
