Struggling AC Milan recovered from conceding two early goals to snatch a dramatic 2-2 draw against visiting Fiorentina in Serie A on Saturday. The hosts’ hopes of qualifying for the Champions League continue to fade, and they were two goals down in the opening 10 minutes of this contest. Things started off poorly for Milan when Malick Thiaw gave Fiorentina the lead with an own goal. Away forward Albert Gudmundsson dribbled past their defence to strike from a tight angle and Thiaw bundled the ball inside his own empty net. Moise Kean doubled the visitors’ advantage three minutes later, firing…
A bittersweet draw for AC Milan, who managed to come back from two goals down against Fiorentina. After Thiaw’s unfortunate own goal and Kean’s second, the Rossoneri responded with goals from Abraham and Jović. Despite the result, AC Milan showed character. Here are the key statistics from the match: 1- AC Milan (48) have collected fewer than 50 points after the first 31 games of a Serie A season for the third time in the last 10 seasons, after 2015/16 (49) and 2019/20 (49) – seasons finished in 7th and 6th place respectively. 2- Tammy Abraham (10) has reached double…
Milan: Maignan 7; Walker 5.5, Tomori 5.5, Thiaw 5, Theo Hernandez 5.5; Reijnders 6, Fofana 6 (80′ Bondo n/a); Musah 5 (25′ Jovic 7), Pulisic 6.5 (80′ Chukwueze n/a), Leao 6; Abraham 7 (55′ Gimenez 5.5) (80′ Joao Felix n/a) Best Milan players: Abraham & Maignan 7 – The striker’s grit and determination, arguably more than his technique, are the main reasons Sergio Conceiçao is increasingly relying on the English striker up front. The tenacity he showed in driving the ball toward the box, before combining with Pulisic for Milan’s first goal, was a spark in an otherwise overwhelmed Rossoneri…

On Thursday night, the Golden State Warriors sent a message to the Los Angeles Lakers after defeating them in a statement win. While the message can be open to interpretation, NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal believes he heard it loud and clear. During an episode of Inside the NBA, Shaq claimed that the Warriors want all the smoke from the Lakers. “I know the Lakers beat Golden State three times before, but they didn’t have Jimmy Butler and they were not focused,” Shaq said. “I like a focused Golden State Warriors team, they’re very dangerous. I think they want to see…
AC Milan get off to a terrible start against Fiorentina, conceding two goals in the first ten minutes of the match. Then the Rossoneri reduce the deficit through Tammy Abraham and equalize in the second half thanks to Serbian striker Luka Jovic, scoring his second goal in a row. A 2-2 draw that doesn’t do much for either Conceicao’s team or Palladino’s, keeping the distance between the two sides unchanged, with Milan remaining in 9th position and Fiorentina in 8th place. Below is the updated league table: Inter 68 (31 matches played) Napoli 64 (30) Atalanta 58 (30) Bologna 56…
Head coach JJ Redick knew it would not exactly be smooth sailing for the Los Angeles Lakers after the team’s blockbuster Feb. 2 trade to acquire Luka Doncic. Redick and the Lakers will get another chance to work on the process when Los Angeles visits the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday for the first of consecutive games between the teams. “I don’t think the expectation, at least internally for us, was we’re going to be the 2016-17 Warriors or this year’s Oklahoma City Thunder. We didn’t expect that,” Redick said of the fact his team is being outscored when Doncic,…
The Los Angeles Lakers were able to take care of business on Friday night against the New Orleans Pelicans by a final score of 124-108. With the win, the Lakers improved to 47-30 on the season. As the NBA Playoffs continue to draw closer, every game is important for seeding purposes. Austin Reaves has been on a tear of late. He has become a legitimate star and has formed a “big three” alongside LeBron James and Luka Doncic. Against the Pelicans, he scored 30 points to go along with seven assists, while shooting 8-for-13 from the floor and making six…

Ionescu also shared a video from an event that had Romanian music playing in the background. It showed people dancing together to the rhythm. The library guard posted the video on her IG story to joke about what her…
Yunus Musah was put through the wringer tonight, hauled off after a nightmare 24 minutes, distraught and consoled until he had a moving hug with Milan coach Sergio Conceicao. The USMNT midfielder had a disastrous start to the Serie A match against Fiorentina at San Siro. His awful first touch in the final third allowed the Viola to take the lead, when Malick Thiaw accidentally bundled the Albert Gudmundsson cross into his own net on seven minutes. Just three minutes later, Musah’s defending also left a lot to be desired when Dodo found Moise Kean to volley in the second…
