USMNT star Christian Pulisic has made an honest “not the start we wanted” admission after seeing AC Milan’s winless run in 2024-25 extended. United States international Pulisic, who is now into his second season at San Siro, has been among the goals for the Rossoneri early in the current campaign. He posted a career-best return of 15 efforts last season, and opened his account this term in a 2-1 defeat at Parma. That result has been sandwiched by disappointing 2-2 draws with Torino and Lazio. With just two points on the board, Milan are still searching for their first win…
As the Rossonerri head into the international break, with approximately three weeks until they face cross-city rivals Inter in the Derby della Madonina at the San Siro, coach Paulo Fonseca’s side find themselves consumed within darkness, as highlighted by La Gazzetta dello Sport. Despite having acquired additional depth within the back-line, the Diavolo continue to bleed heavily through their wounds as they conceded six goals within their first three games of the 2024/25 Serie A campaign, Strahinja Pavlovic struggling heavily to make key interceptions in the box and Emerson Royal having an atrocious debut against the Biancocelesti as he was…
Milan star Rafael Leao hit back at criticism from pundit Paolo Di Canio by publishing a photograph of the former Lazio player performing a fascist salute. The statement was presented with no further comment required on the Portuguese talent’s social media account on X, formerly known as Twitter. It was a response to Di Canio being extremely critical of Rafael Leao in his role on Sky Sport Italia as a pundit following the 2-2 Serie A draw between Milan and Lazio on Sunday. No doubt reading or even watching the coverage, Leao gave a response today on social media with…
During the summer, AC Milan seemingly uncovered an answer to questions they did not know yet existed in the goalkeeper department – Lorenzo Torriani, and hopes are high for his future. After an incredible summer, his sister, Chiara, detailed his journey, and her emotions watching him grow. When Marco Sportiello injured his hand in the United States, there were questions about the near and far future. Who would immediately step in to take his place, and who would cover his position? The answer revealed itself in the following game. Of course, Torriani would. Starting the game against Manchester City, many…
AC Milan are navigating a turbulent period, marked by a significant crisis in both results and gameplay. The team has managed only one victory in their last twelve matches, and the initial promise shown during summer friendlies has given way to confusion in the first three official outings of the season. The atmosphere became even more strained following an incident involving players Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao during a 2-2 draw against Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico. The controversy arose shortly after Rafael Leao scored the equalizer for Milan. As the team gathered for a cooling break, Hernandez and Leao…
The Philadelphia Eagles downgraded from nine captains to seven this year, with most of the picks being the same. There was one new captain from the previous season, who was caught off guard by the selection. For the first time in his career, Jordan Mailata is a captain. “I felt like crying. Because it really shocked me,” Mailata said after being named captain in his seventh season. “Then after the first hour, I felt …That’s a huge deal. To me, it is. Just gotta go out and be me.” Being himself has propelled Mailata to a leadership position on the Eagles, a role he…
AC Milan were involved in a rollercoaster of a game against Lazio on Saturday night as both teams led at the Stadio Olimpico but had to settle for a 2-2 draw. Milan took the lead in the first half through Strahinja Pavlovic, who rose highest at the near post to power in a Christian Pulisic corner and net his first goal for the club in the process since arriving from Red Bull Salzburg. However, the hosts turned the game on its head in just a few second half minutes and Nuno Tavares set up both goals from the left side.…
After leaving AC Milan at the end of the mercato, Yacine Adli has spoken to the press about his move, and how it could be similar to some of his former teammates who also departed the Rossoneri previously. Throughout the summer, Adli’s position at Milan looked to weaken. Reports suggested that reinforcements would arrive, and he quickly became a favoured option to be sacrificed for the new players to come in. Towards the tail end of last season, the Frenchman displayed some of his best qualities, in a position he was unfamiliar with, and he quickly became a key player…

Eight-times World Champion Marc Marquez’s victory in the Aragon MotoGP saw him reduce his championship points deficit to 70, but he still feels he’s too far away to be considered a contender for the title yet. In addition to his 70-point deficit to Jorge Martin, Marquez is 47 points behind Francesco Bagnaia who remains the most victorious rider in 2024 with seven Grand Prix victories and three Sprint wins. “No, we are far,” Marquez admitted in the Aragon post-race press conference when asked about his championship credentials. “We start losing points, more and more and more. We are too far.…
