Bologna 0- Milan 0
AC Milan fell 10 points behind city rivals Inter this afternoon after another uninspiring display at Bologna.
With Inter cruising past Cagliari 3-0 at the San Siro, a win for Leonardo's men was key to their hopes of keeping the pressure on their great rivals in the race for the Scudetto.
But a failure to find the back of the net - although they came mighty close, twice hitting the woodwork - maintained their poor recent run.
Having manoeuvred themselves into second place in Serie A behind Inter, things started to go wrong for the Rossoneri when they were outplayed in the Milan derby.
Since then they have crashed out of the Coppa Italia at the hands of Udinese and were held to a draw by relegation-threatened Livorno in a half-empty San Siro.
And there were signs of unrest in the Milan camp this week when Brazil star Ronaldinho was forced to deny he had held a three-night party in the lead-up to the Inter game.
On top of that, owner Silvio Berlusconi expressed his surprise at the signing of Mancini on loan from the Nerazzurri, saying he disagreed with the move.
It was hardly ideal preparation for a difficult clash against a side battling to preserve their top flight status.
And, although they started well - Andrea Pirlo hammering in a fifth-minute free-kick which produced a fine save from home goalkeeper Roberto Colombo - the hosts will argue they deserved a share of the spoils for their defensive resistance.
Bologna offered little going forward with their only first-half effort falling to former Italy striker Marco Di Vaio but his effort was comfortable for Dida.
Milan dominated possession but could find no way through a stubborn Bologna rearguard. The crowded penalty area forced Milan to try their luck from long range with Pirlo thrashing another shot over the bar with six minutes to go in what was a turgid first half.
Bologna had the first chance after the break, Di Vaio dispossessing Pirlo and setting off on a mazy run towards goal which was halted by a fine challenge from Luca Antonini.
Milan almost broke the deadlock after 57 minutes but luck came to the home side's rescue.
Bologna failed to clear their lines from a corner and the loose ball was turned towards goal by Ronaldinho but his shot cannoned back off the bar.
Colombo then saved well from Marco Borriello as Milan upped the tempo.
The Bologna keeper excelled himself once more with 21 minutes to go, diving bravely at the feet of substitute Klaas Jan Huntelaar after the Holland striker had been played in by Pirlo.
Milan dominated the closing stages with some wayward finishing and a lack of luck hampering their efforts to snatch all three points.
Leonardo's side thought they had won an 84th-minute penalty when Salvatore Lanna appeared to handle Ignazio Abate's right-wing cross but the referee waved play on.
Then, with a minute left, substitute David Beckham played a one-two with Borriello but the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star could only fire his shot wide from the edge of the area.
Milan came agonisingly close again in injury time when Mancini wriggled clear and whipped in a cross for Massimo Ambrosini but his header struck the bar.

Milan 1 Bologna 0
It finished Milan-Bologna 1-0, in a match valid for the 4th matchday of Serie A. The winning goal of the Rossoneri was scored by Clarence Seedorf in the 75th minute.
MILAN: Storari; Abate, Nesta, Kaladze, Favalli; Gattuso, Pirlo, Ambrosini; Seedorf; Pato, Huntelaar.
Milan go back to winning ways at San Siro not without struggling against a compact Bologna team. The team's resistence lasts 75 minutes. Deciding the match was once again the class of Clarence Seedorf, who with a perfect dribble disoriented his opponent and gave Milan the winning goal.
After the many exercises done by Leonardo to see if Ignazio Abate would be able to play as a full back, the young Rossonero gets to play from the start as a right back with Favalli on the left. After the great performance in the Champions League Seedorf is confirmed in the hole behind the strikers Pato and Huntelaar.
The formation against Bologna is an aggressive, compact team, and since the first minutes of the match Milan showed incisiveness and good condition. In the 2nd minute Huntelaar with a powerful diagonal shot scared Viviano, while Gattuso sent the ball over the bar from close range in the 13th minute after a great run by Pato.
Bologna remained mostly blocked in their area and were often in difficulty as they looked for Di Vaio and Zalayeta. Papadopulo's men couldn't create any dangerous moves in the first half an hour.
In the last few minutes of the first half, Milan augmented the pressure. In the 37th minute a cross by Pirlo found Seedorf in the area and he tried to find Huntelaar with a header but the Dutchman couldn't get to the ball in time. In the 41st minute Abate found Seedorf but the ball slipped too fast on the ground and Clarence failed to control it close to Viviano.
At the start of the second half there were no changes in either formation, and Milan quickly made themselves dangerous with a free kick by Pirlo after just two minutes. The match continued to be controlled by the Rossoneri but Papadopulo's spiderweb constantly frustrated Milan's moves.
The first real chance of the second half was in the 19th minute with Pato who fired a shot that ended up on the post. This chance spurred Milan on to believe in it even more. Leonardo took off Huntelaar and Gattuso inserted Inzaghi and Oddo. The hero of Marseille in the 27th minute found a great ball in his feet but the striker's shot went high.
Milan often tried to break through on the left and from that position Seedorf started in the 29th minute. The Dutchman went past Raggi with a nice dribble and put the ball in the net for a deserved lead.
After taking the lead Milan controlled the ball and tried to find dangerous counterattacks going through the left wing. In the 37th minute Inzaghi picked up a long ball and found himself in front of Viviano, who blocked the striker's shot which ended up on the post.
The failed chance led Bologna to try everything to get an equaliser. In the 42nd minute Mingazzini fired a great shot from distance which only Storari's skill prevented from becoming an equaliser for Bologna. A few seconds later from a corner kick Portanova tried a header which went wide. The last chance of a match which allowed Milan to get the first three points of the season in front of their home crowd.
BOLOGNA: Viviano; Raggi, Portanova, Britos, Lanna; Zenoni, Mingazzini, Guana, Valiani; Di Vaio, Zalayeta.
MILAN: Storari; Abate, Nesta, Kaladze, Favalli; Gattuso, Pirlo, Ambrosini; Seedorf; Pato, Huntelaar.
