Milan Edges Toward Title After Theo Hernández Recreates Maradona's ‘Goal Of The Century’

History will show that it was Rafael Leão's 56th-minute match-winner on the penultimate matchday of Serie A play that kept AC Milan on course for its first Scudetto since 2011, but years down the road, the lasting memory of the Rossoneri's vital 2-0 victory over Atalanta will certainly be Theo Hernández's own personal recreation of Diego Maradona's "Goal of the Century" in the 75th-minute.  

Because Selling Jerseys Is Not Enough, Venezia FC Now Offers Fancy, Expensive Swimsuits

Venezia FC is not doing great on the field. With just two games left in the Serie A season, the team is dead last in the standings, and relegation is an unavoidable fate. But, off the pitch, oh boy! The club is shining and thriving because of its trendy fashion ventures. 

Ivan Perišić’s Two-Footed Genius Ensures Juventus Finishes Season Trophyless

Weston McKennie and Juventus will finish the 2021-22 season without a trophy. Ivan Perišić made sure of it with two well-taken goals — one with each foot — in extra time as Inter Milan claimed the Coppa Italia 4-2 on Wednesday at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. 

In a wild, back-and-forth match that saw Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri shown a red card, Inter took full advantage of two penalty kicks and dominated extra time to claim its eighth Coppa Italia, trailing only Juventus (14) and Roma (9) for most all time. 

How Good Is Rafael Leão? 22-Year-Old Moves Milan One Step Closer To Serie A Title

The Serie A title rice between Derby della Madonnina rivals Internazionale and AC Milan reached a crescendo this weekend when Inter, trailing 2-0 early, scored four straight against Empoli to win 4-2 and establish a one-point lead over Milan ahead of the Rossoneri's difficult away trip to Hellas Verona on Sunday.

Like Inter, Milan played with fire early and went behind in the 38th minute to an excellently worked Verona goal.  

Pulisic Not Getting Enough Minutes With Chelsea — Could Seek A Summer Transfer To Juventus

Christian Pulisic needs to get out of Chelsea. Simple as that. 

The American star made an appearance as a substitute during Chelsea’s Sunday defeat to Everton. This was his ninth appearance off the bench in the Premier League this season and the fifth in a row. Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel doesn’t seem to trust starting Pulisic, even if he comes off the bench and scores a game-winner.

The lack of playing time has helped spark Pulisic Juventus transfer rumors.

The Biggest Free Agents This Summer And Where They're Headed

The list of soccer free agents 2022 is full of players we've spent an ungodly amount of time speculating over the last few years — Kylian Mbappé, Paul Pogba, Paulo Dybala, Ousmane Dembélé — so it's somewhat strange to see them all leaving their respective clubs on free transfers as out of contract footballers.  

You Cannot Fathom How Bad This Inter Howler Is Until You See It

It was all set up for Inter Milan to retake the lead in the race for the Serie A title. Just beat 13th-place Bologna and the blue half of Milan would overtake the red half for first place with four games to go. 

Instead, backup goalkeeper Ionuț Radu committed one of the worst howlers in the history of European football. 

Bologna knocked off Inter Milan 2-1 thanks to a calamitous mistake from Radu, who whiffed on the ball from inside his own six-yard box, allowing Nicola Sansone to swoop in and poke home the match winner in the 81st minute.

Nuevo Fichaje Del Napoli Deja El Futuro Del Chucky Lozano En Suspenso

El ciclo de Hirving Lozano en el Napoli parece que comienza a cerrarse. Los rumores de una salida del Chucky en el próximo mercado estival se intensifican a diario y más aún luego de que el club italiano anunciara hoy su primer refuerzo para la temporada 2022-23: el extremo georgiano, Kvicha Kvaratskhella.

Women’s Football Finally Deemed A Professional Sport In Italy

Earlier this year, Juventus upset European giant Lyon in the Women’s Champions League quarterfinals, sending shockwaves through Europe. Though Lyon won the second leg and advanced on aggregate, it was a sign Italian women’s football was not to be trifled with. Not bad for a team playing in a league that until now hasn’t been fully professional.

Zlatan's Clutch Assist Keeps AC Milan's Title Dream Alive

Trailing Lazio 1-0 at halftime at Stadio Olimpico in Rome on Sunday night, AC Milan was witnessing the crushing end of its Serie A title chase. 

If the result held, Inter would stay top of the table with a game still in hand, and you wouldn't be on the Nerazzurri messing up twice in their final five matches with the most difficult test being a trip to 12th-place Udinese.
