Milan was loudly jeered off the field after its third defeat in four matches.
The Rossoneri were not only nine points below league leader Inter Milan but just six points above Juventus and Roma, in fifth and sixth, in the fight for Champions League qualifying places.
All of the teams around Milan in the table were still to play this weekend, and Juventus could close the gap with a win at Atalanta later on Saturday.
Nicolò Zaniolo starred for Udinese at San Siro. He counterattacked from deep inside his own half and rode a couple of challenges before spreading it to the right for Arthur Atta, whose cross was deflected in by Davide Bartesaghi — going down as an own goal by the young Milan defender.
Zaniolo also set up Udinese’s second in the 37th minute with a sensational cross from the right for Jurgen Ekkelenkamp’s header.
Moments earlier, Keinan Davis had an effort pushed onto the crossbar by Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan and Bartesaghi had to clear an attempt off the line on the stroke of halftime.
The boos had already started by then and Milan was also roasted by its supporters at the break.
The Rossoneri’s hopes of clawing something from the match all but evaporated in the 71st when Atta netted Udinese’s third, feinting to shoot into the far corner before slotting into the bottom left.
Cagliari took a crucial step toward avoiding relegation by beating fellow struggler Cremonese 1-0.
Cagliari’s first win since January lifted the Sardinian team six points above Cremonese and the relegation zone.
Sebastiano Esposito scored his third goal in four matches in the 63rd minute, heading in a cross from Zé Pedro, who had only just come off the bench.
Hellas Verona remained nine points from safety after losing at mid-table Torino 2-1.

Inter Milan delivered a ruthless attacking masterclass to dismantle AS Roma 5-2 at home on Sunday, tightening its grip on the Serie A title as Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez spearheaded the rout.
The victory gave Inter a nine-point cushion at the top of the table with 72 points as it awaits Monday’s clash between second-placed AC Milan and third-placed Napoli in Naples, with only seven rounds of the season remaining following that fixture. Roma sits sixth with 54 points.
Inter took a 59-second lead when Thuram squared for Martinez to fire home, and though Gianluca Mancini’s header briefly drew Roma level, Hakan Calhanoglu restored the advantage for the host in first-half stoppage time with a long-distance strike.
Thuram and Martinez combined again early in the second half, with the Frenchman threading a pass for Martinez to sweep in his second before Thuram headed home a corner minutes later. Nicolo Barella added a fifth for the host just after the hour mark, while Lorenzo Pellegrini pulled one back for the visitor.
MARTINEZ RETURNS
Inter captain Martinez marked his return from a muscle injury with a goal on his first league appearance since February as the host made a fast start.
Thuram broke down the right inside the opening minute and squared for Martinez, who slipped away from his marker to guide a first-time finish into the roof of the net.
Inter dominated the early stages in search of a second goal, but Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar produced a series of saves to frustrate the home side.
Roma gradually grew into the game as Inter’s intensity dropped and went close to levelling but Yann Sommer made a fine reflex save to tip away Donyell Malen’s looping header. The visitor was rewarded five minutes before half-time when Devyne Rensch’s lofted cross was headed in by an unmarked Gianluca Mancini to make it 1-1.
Inter regained the lead deep into first-half stoppage time through an outstanding strike from Calhanoglu, who drove a long-range effort from around 35 metres that dipped under the crossbar.
The host resumed after the break with renewed urgency and restored its two-goal cushion in the 55th minute, Thuram again the provider after winning possession high up the pitch and slipping a pass through for Martinez to sweep home his second.
Roma’s defensive lapses were exposed again three minutes later as Thuram, left unmarked at the near post, headed in from a corner to make it 4-1.
Defender Alessandro Bastoni was applauded by the home supporters when substituted just before the hour mark in a show of support following intense media criticism after his red card in Italy’s World Cup playoff defeat by Bosnia-Herzegovina.
With the contest effectively settled, Barella added Inter’s fifth goal in the 63rd minute before Pellegrini replied seven minutes later.
