ROME (March 13, 1999 1:09 p.m. EST http://www.sportserver.com) - Italy's Filippo Inzaghi scored late to give 10-man Juventus a 2-1 win over Udinese and fifth place in serie A on Saturday.

The champions, undefeated since coach Carlo Ancelotti took over last month, moved within four points of fourth-placed Parma.

Inzaghi's opportunistic close-range strike was a shock to Udinese who looked like scoring after Juve goalkeeper Michelangleo Rampulla was sent off in the 63rd minute for handling outside his area.

Uruguayan Daniel Fonseca had headed home an Angelo Di Livio cross to make it 1-0 on the half-hour for Juve.

Argentine striker Roberto Sosa equalized just after the interval for Udinese, who dropped to sixth.

AS Roma, inspired by Francesco Totti beat Bologna 3-1 with headers by Marco Delvecchio after 10 and 38 minutes.

Carmine Gautieri made it 3-0 shortly after Bologna goalkeeper Francesco Antonioli was sent off for elbowing Delvecchio in the head in the 52nd minute.

Swede Kennet Andersson pulled one back in the 68th for Bologna.

Red cards were shown in the dying minutes to Roma's Brazilian defender Zago and Bologna winger Jonathan Binotto.
