Juventus are set to welcome AS Roma to the Allianz Stadium in Turin in one of the bigger clashes of the third round of the season in the Serie A, as both teams seek to be a part of the conversations about the top-end of the table right down to the end of the campaign.

Juventus

Until a few years ago the barely disputed dominant force in Italian football, Juventus have been taken off that throne first by one and then the other club from Milan, and it s undoubtedly their aim to retake the crown as soon as possible. Last time out, they finished fourth, whole 16 points behind champions AC Milan, 14 behind Inter, and nine behind Napoli. Though they probably should be happy that they ve at least managed to secure a place in the Champions Leag…

Manchester United are on the brink of elimination from the Champions League, and they suffered a proper humiliation in the Premier League at the weekend, losing 0-3 to Bournemouth at Old Trafford.

While there have been calls for manager Erik ten Hag to be sacked, former United defender Gary Neville says that would make no sense.

The idea of sacking him is absolute nonsense

Spain consolidated their spot at the top of Group B with a narrow 2-0 win over Kosovo in Wednesday s World Cup qualifying clash.

Pablo Fornals first international goal from a tight angle and Ferran Torres late strike proved the difference as Milot Rashica and Vedat Muriqi were made to rue missed chances for the hosts.

The visitors loss against Sweden was their first in World Cup qualifying since 1993 and ended a 66-match unbeaten run but wins against Georgia and Kosovo have got them back on track.

Luis Enrique s men sit four points clear of Janne Andersson s side, who were beaten 2-1 by Greece on Wednesday, although they have two games in hand.

After Koke s deflected shot brought the first save from Arijanet Muric, Elbasan Rashani fired narrowly wide wit…

The Mail Online understands that Aaron Ramsey is no closer to signing a new contract at Arsenal.

The Wales international is into the final year of his current contract at the Emirates and was linked with a move to Chelsea in the summer.

Should a new deal not be agreed he will be free to agree a move to a foreign club in January, with Juventus previous admirers of his work.

The twenty-seven-year old has been with the Gunners since the summer of 2008 and has since played three hundred and thirty-one times, scoring fifty-eight goals – one of which, the winner in the 2014 FA Cup final victory over Hull City.

He was also part of the squads that won the trophy in 2015 and 2017 while internationally he has made fifty-three appearances for his country, sco…

Chelsea boss Emma Hayes believes her side need to use their Women’s Champions League experience to get a result in their Group D clash at BK Hacken.

The Blues will go to the top of the group if they can beat the Swedish team on Wednesday night.

They were held to a goalless draw by the same opposition at Stamford Bridge last week but will have to face a lively atmosphere in the reverse fixture.

“Every game is a must-win game for us,” Hayes said on the club’s official website. “That is our mentality. We were disappointed with our performance last week. We worked on that, trained really well, played well at the weekend. This place will be rocking tomorrow night. This is going to be a difficult place to play.

Business trip: Hacken (A).

Tottenham should not have been surprised by how Antonio Conte s time at the club ended as he goes into conflict with everyone , says Christian Vieri.

Conte joined Spurs in November 2021 after the sacking of Nuno Espirito Santo and guided the north London club to a top-four Premier League finish at the end of his first season.

Despite sitting fourth again this season, performances under Conte were hugely inconsistent with Spurs falling to disappointing exits in the Champions League and FA Cup in recent weeks.

Following an explosive press conference in which the Italian labelled his players selfish , he left the club on Sunday.

However, the breakdown in relations between Conte and the club was something former Juventus, Inter and Italy striker Vieri was ex…

Mauricio Pochettino wanted Christian Eriksen s future resolved before Sunday. Tomorrow, we are going to know if Christian is going to be with us or not. That s the most important thing, he said the day before.

The fact the midfielder was thrown back into the starting line-up for the north London derby suggests this particular transfer saga has, for now, been paused. This felt like a message to Real Madrid, and any other suitors, that Eriksen will be a Tottenham player after Monday s European transfer deadline.

We need to wait, he said to Sky Sports after the game against Arsenal. But that [performance] showed that Christian Eriksen was alright. That was an understatement.

If there have been any doubts about the commitment of Eriksen, who has admitted he wants a …

Veteran Sampdoria striker Fabio Quagliarella s bid to set a new record of scoring in 12 consecutive appearances within the same Serie A season ended in a 3-0 defeat at former club Napoli on Saturday.

Quagliarella equalled Gabriel Batistuta s mark of 11 straight goalscoring outings when he netted the first of two penalties in last weekend s 4-0 win over Udinese.

The 36-year-old s exploits saw him recalled to Italy s international set-up this week but all good things must come to an end.

Here, with the help of Opta data, we take a closer look at the evergreen frontman s heroics.

143 Fabio has now scored 143 Serie A goals, overtaking Christian Vieri in the history of the Italian top-flight. Bomber.

Cucho Hernandez dedicated Columbus Crew s dramatic last-gasp victory over New York City FC to the late NHL star Johnny Gaudreau.

The Crew struck twice in stoppage time to seal a 4-2 triumph and extend their winning streak across all competitions to eight matches.

Despite cancelling out Alonso Martinez s early strike through Diego Rossi and Maximilian Arfsten, Columbus were pegged back in the 86th minute by Mounsef Bakrar.

However, the hosts were not to be denied at Lower.com Field as DeJuan Jones and Jacen Russell-Rowe snatched victory in stoppage time, while Julian Fernandez was sent off for the visitors.

Striker Hernandez took to X to pay tribute to Gaudreau, who plied his trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets, after the seven-time All-Star and his young…
