Santiago Gimenez has admitted that he was dreaming of scoring his first goal at San Siro, while he is ready to welcome Feyenoord on Tuesday. Milan eventually got the three points against Hellas Verona which are very important in the race for the top four, but in truth they were made to work incredible hard for them. Santiago Gimenez notched his second goal for the Rossoneri in his second league game for the club as the away side’s resistance was finally broken inside the last 20 minutes. A wonderful give-and-go saw Alex Jimenez dink the ball over the top for…
Sergio Conceicao was in mourning this evening, so Zlatan Ibrahimovic spoke for Milan and hailed the impact of the new arrivals. ‘We are Milan, if we can only rely on one player then we’re in trouble.’ It was a tough slog for the Rossoneri to break down the worst defence in Serie A, as Verona held firm until the 75th minute. Alex Jimenez dinked up a pass for Rafael Leao’s acrobatic flick, setting up the Santiago Gimenez header from close range for a 1-0 result. When it came to the most-match interviews, special advisor Ibrahimovic attended rather than Conceicao because…
AC Milan are ready to sell Rafael Leao to Barcelona to fund a summer move for on-loan forward Joao Felix. Felix signed for the Serie A side on loan from Chelsea in January and is off to a good start, convincing the club to consider a move to sign him permanently, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The outlay would be considerable, though, and may require the sale of Leao. Otherwise, the Rossoneri could offload Theo Hernandez this summer to avoid losing him for free when his contract expires the following year. Felix and Milan boss Sergio Conceicao share an…
Kyle Walker’s third outing for AC Milan took an unfortunate turn as he was substituted at half-time, only for his replacement to play a pivotal role in securing a late winner against Hellas Verona. The England international has begun his life in Italy following a transfer from Manchester City during the winter window, amidst a noticeable decline in form defensively. Walker has featured five times for the Rossoneri – three in Serie A, one in the Coppa Italia, and one in the UEFA Champions League. Despite his less than stellar performances, one can understand the adjustment period Walker is experiencing,…
AC Milan clinched three very important points against Hellas Verona thanks to a goal from their star striker Santiago Gimenez. A few more were involved in the action tonight and below are the player ratings for the Rossoneri. If you haven’t already, make sure to check out how we decide the player ratings. From the scale to what affects the rating, we have compiled everything there. Starting XI Maignan (5.5): It might sound strange given he kept a clean sheet, but the Frenchman had a couple of really poor fumbles which could have proved costly. He also wasn’t convincing with his…
Sergio Conceicao is not happy with Theo Hernandez’s bold new hairstyle, a report claims, while the directors accepted an offer for him from Como. According to Matteo Moretto‘s latest for Relevo – in which he also talks about Mike Maignan’s imminent renewal – he gives some background on Theo and what happened in midweek before the Feyenoord game. The French full-back’s performances have not been very good for some time now as he is ‘not consistent’ and ‘not attentive throughout the match’ while often making ‘defensive errors dictated by a lack of aggressiveness or attention’. Recently – before the match…
Roughly two weeks ago, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks agreed on one of the biggest trades in NBA history. With little prior knowledge of the deal occurring outside of the front offices, the Lakers acquired 25-year-old superstar Luka Doncic, along with Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris, in exchange for Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick. It’s rare to see two players who are either in their prime or entering it be traded for one another, especially in the middle of the season. The trade sent shockwaves through the NBA, with fans and players reacting…
The Boston Celtics have had a more tumultuous season than last year. It’s just a fact. They were absolutely dominant last season, so it set the bar extremely high, and this year, they haven’t reached that same level of dominance. Yet they are still one of the best teams in the NBA and in second place in the Eastern Conference. Heading into the All-Star break, the Celtics enjoyed a 7-1 run in their last eight games—a red-hot stretch after a relatively rough stretch in December and January. They’ve found a similar rhythm to the one they enjoyed in the early…
Tijjani Reijnders has potentially been the stand-out performer for AC Milan this season, but his role has changed under the new coach Sergio Conceicao. As Calciomercato.com recall, his crowning moment might have been the performance at the Santiago Bernabeu in the Champions League against Real Madrid, a game in which he scored the third goal and completed 51 completed passes out of 52. Reijnders is someone who plays with a smile on his face and enjoys the game of football, but what helps is the fact he has scored 11 goals and added three assists in 35 appearances across all…
Boston Celtics starting center Kristpas Porzingis was impressed by the incredible coverage work of All-Defensive First Team San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama, who just made his first All-Star team this season. Boston and San Antonio faced off on Wednesday night. Porzingis scored 29 points in the 116-103 victory. The 7-foot-3 Porzingis was something of a proto-Wembanyama during his New York Knicks-era All-Star prime, as an elite shot blocker who could also spread the floor. Per Brian Robb of MassLive, Porzingis was especially intrigued by the 21-year-old superstar’s efforts and profile defensively. Wembanyama was limited to 17 points and 13…
