After the defeat in Turin, we expected to see a fierce Rossoneri team, determined to take home the win, but not even taking the lead was enough for Sergio Conceição’s team to turn the page and restart—yet again in a season that now seems to be slipping further and further away, as pointed out by Il Corriere dello Sport in this morning’s print edition. Yesterday at the Dall’Ara, Milan relied on their best players, but apart from Leão, who scored the goal that briefly put the Rossoneri ahead, they were let down by almost everyone, including Bebote Santiago Giménez, who…
Franco Ordine has revealed his belief that AC Milan should renew two of their star players, while also questioning Sergio Conceicao’s style of management. Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez have had difficult seasons so far and for similar reasons. Both have made some quite high-profile mistakes, while off the field the fact that both of their contracts run out in 2026 means that there is an absence of calm about the future. Nonetheless, a number of reports are suggesting that a deal is in place with Maignan over an extension for a couple of years at least, that will see…
Sergio Conceicao was furious with the refereeing as Milan lost to Bologna, but above all ranted angrily at the media. ‘I won 13 trophies, I did not come here out of nothing.’ The Rossoneri’s campaign is falling apart in the space of a couple of weeks, as they crashed out of the Champions League play-offs and are now down in eighth place in Serie A. They had been hoping to make the most of this rescheduled Week 9 trip to the Stadio Dall’Ara, originally called off in October 2024 due to flood warnings in the area, and took the lead…
AC Milan went ahead through Rafael Leao against Bologna on Thursday, yet succumbed to a second-half comeback. Milan are eighth in the standings with 41 points, eight behind Juventus in fourth with 12 games remaining. Bologna had to do it the hard way on Thursday, coming from behind after Rafael Leao’s goal two minutes before half-time in a contest that was rescheduled after it was called off in October due to flooding. Milan were pegged back three minutes into the second half when a free-kick into the box was flicked on by Giovanni Fabbian was headed home by Santiago Castro.…
AC Milan were knocked out of the Champions League last week and have followed it up with back-to-back Serie A defeats, piling pressure on. Sergio Conceicao vowed to keep working with the same passion at AC Milan after admitting the pressure on him was growing after their 2-1 loss to Bologna. Milan’s season is on the brink of unravelling after their Champions League exit and two consecutive Serie A losses, which have left them eighth in the standings, eight points behind Juventus in fourth place with 12 matches remaining. Conceicao’s side held the lead at half-time after Rafael Leao’s strike…
Another game, another bushel of 3-pointers for the Cleveland Cavaliers. In their latest victory over the Orlando Magic, their first trip to central Florida since the two teams met in the playoffs last year, the Cavaliers hit another 19 3-pointers, showing off the superpower that has propelled them to the league’s best record. Last season the Cavaliers were a good 3-point shooting team; this year they have taken things to the next level, and it may just be the change that brings a second championship to The Land. The Cavaliers are bombing away from 3 The Cavaliers are having an…
Sandro Tonali’s most recent comments have once again fuelled the idea that he will come back to AC Milan one day, but how feasible is it currently? Speaking in an interview with La Repubblica, Tonali revealed some details about leaving Milan and offered some hope for the future: “I have no regrets. The idea of returning to Milan one day is there, but it’s not the thought when I wake up in the morning.” Calciomercato.com ask the question: do Milan have the economic strength to attempt an attempt to bring Tonali back to his boyhood club? The calculations start from…
Sergio Conceicao launched into an impassioned defence of himself and his AC Milan side after their 2-1 defeat to Bologna tonight. Going into the game at the Stadio Renato dall’Ara, Milan knew that they probably needed a win to keep alive their slim hopes of getting a top four spot. At half-time things were going according to plan, even if Rafael Leao’s opener had come a bit against the run of play. However, a second-half collapse is what followed, with Santiago Castro firing in an equaliser in controversial circumstances and then Dan Ndoye netting from close range in the closing…
The Cleveland Cavaliers’ 122-82 demolition of the Orlando Magic was a statement, but not the statement Cleveland has been trying to make. Yes, it gave them 48 wins, matching last season’s total. However, despite this, no one in the locker room seemed to care, including Cavs head coach Kenny Atkinson. In our locker room, amongst us, no one is talking about our record,” Atkinson said. “Focused on trying to prepare for these playoffs. Championship mentality.” That mentality is exactly why Cleveland’s upcoming showdown against the Boston Celtics matters. More than just another regular-season game, it’s a proving ground. With the…
NBA players are some of the richest athletes on the planet. Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and LeBron James are all billionaires thanks to their bumper contracts on the court and savvy business deals off it. Inside the NBA favorites Charles Barkley ($60 million net worth) and Shaquille O’Neal ($400 million) aren’t doing too badly either, while Kevin Durant ($300 million) and Steph Curry ($180 million) lead the way among active stars. However, one name that rarely gets a mention in the list of the NBA’s richest players is Junior Bridgeman, who just so happens to be wealthier than Shaq, Barkley,…
