Di Gregorio was in superb form, making at least two excellent saves to help Juve secure the victory.
Timothy Weah – 7.0

Federico Gatti – 7.0
Motta values his determination to get forward, and it was evident again today. He played like a warrior and nearly scored a poacher’s goal.

Journalist: Liverpool ‘waiting’ on three transfers to happen before submitting ‘fresh bid’ for 25y/o
Report: Tottenham offer for star confirmed by his agent, Spurs must pay 'very high price'
Tottenham Hotspur have been heavily linked with a move for the Manchester City attacker Savinho in recent days. They are hoping to sign the 21-year-old Brazilian attacker, and they had an offer rejected for him. Apparently, Tottenham have offered €50 million to sign the player, but Manchester City are holding out for €80 million. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham are willing to come back with an improved offer. They do not have a history of overpaying for players, and Daniel Levy will not want to pay over the odds. Manchester City might have to be reasonable with their demands in order for the move to go through. Tottenham’s offer has been rejected Jorge Nicola has confirmed on YouTube: “Manchester City is setting a very high price to sell Savinho. The 21-year-old Brazilian forward will only leave Manchester City for €80 million or 506 million reais.” “According to the player’s agent, the €50 million offer from Tottenham was already rejected. This information was given to me by Savinho’s agent, Frederico Moraes, with whom I spoke before recording this video. “Atlético Mineiro is closely watching this deal as it owns 1.7% of any transaction involving Savinho through the solidarity mechanism. If this €80 million or 506 million reais deal is confirmed, Atlético will pocket 8.6 million reais, which is roughly half of one Atlético payroll.” Spurs move would be ideal for Savinho The 21-year-old attacker needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and the move to Tottenham would be ideal for him. Manchester City have enough depth in the attacking unit, and they might not be able to offer. Savinho will certainly hope to complete the transfer quickly and focus on his football. Meanwhile, Tottenham need more depth in the attacking unit as well, and the Brazilian would be an exceptional acquisition. He will add pace, flair, and unpredictability to the side. He is young enough to improve further, and he could develop into a future star for them.
Celtics' ownership move should concern Lakers governor Jeanie Buss
Lakers governor Jeanie Buss is supposed to remain in charge of the team for years even after the sale. Given what just happened with the Boston Celtics, it might only be months. When the Grousbeck family sold the Celtics for $6.1B in March, ESPN reported that Wyc Grousbeck would stay on as the Celtics CEO and governor through the 2027-28 season. Now, new owner Bill Chisholm will take over once the sale is final. That should concern current Lakers team governor Jeanie Buss, whose family sold a majority interest in the Los Angeles Lakers to investor Mark Walter. Buss is supposed to stay on as team governor for "at least a number of years," according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, but new NBA owners haven't been keen on waiting to take control of teams recently. Mark Cuban thought he would continue running the Dallas Mavericks when he sold a controlling interest to the Adelson family in November 2023. Before the end of that season, when Dallas advanced to the NBA Finals, new team governor Patrick Dumont, the son-in-law of Miriam Adelson, was firmly in charge. General manager Nico Harrison reported directly to Dumont, which is how Luka Doncic ended up traded to the Lakers despite Cuban's objections. It might be different with the Lakers. Walter has owned a minority share in the Lakers since 2021, so he's had a working relationship with Buss. Her role as team governor may be a condition of the sale itself. With the team preparing for a long-term future with Doncic, Walter and his fellow owners might opt for continuity in the team governor role. But in general, people do not spend billions of dollars on a professional sports team so that someone else can be in charge. Buss is in charge of the Lakers now. Recent history says she won't be for long.
Insider: Steelers Now Have Desire To Add At Wide Receiver Via Trade Or Free Agency
The Pittsburgh Steelers have had an eventful offseason in 2025, and the fan base has finally been able to catch a glimpse of what the team might look like throughout training camp and the team's first preseason game. Pittsburgh will be relying on its defense as usual, but hopefully the passing game looks a little better than it has in years past with Aaron Rodgers under center. Other factors will play a part in that, such as the offensive line and the receivers, and both of those areas are spots where the fan base is not too confident. DK Metcalf is the top wide receiver for Pittsburgh, but behind him, there are some question marks. Calvin Austin III proved he can be a reliable target during the 2024 season, but he is currently dealing with an abdominal injury. Roman Wilson is another player who the coaching staff might not know what to expect, especially after missing basically his entire rookie year in 2024. Other wideouts in the room include Robert Woods, Scotty Miller, and Ben Skowronek. Woods hasn't made much noise throughout training camp, and Skowronek is reliable, but is mainly known for his special teams play. Miller is on the fringe of the roster and seems to be one of Rodgers' favorites, but according to insider Mark Kaboly on the most recent episode of Kaboly + Mack, the organization will likely be looking to add at wide receiver in the near future. "I don't think any time within the next week, but something might be coming down the pike here," Kaboly said. "I'll put it this way, I would not be shocked within the next 10 to 12 days that they add a receiver. I was under the impression that they're just gonna play it out like they were right now. We have Wilson, Austin III, we're going with that. I was pretty much sure of that. I don't know if I'm as sure of that anymore." Wilson played well in his first preseason action against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but with Austin's injury, the team would probably feel better bringing another weapon in. This could be a veteran free agent, or the organization could wait until other teams around the league cut down their rosters and sign a wide receiver that way. One veteran wide receiver that could be on Pittsburgh's watch-list is Odell Beckham Jr. The wide receiver denied retirement rumors on Tuesday, and he seems to be looking to play in 2025. He also mentioned recently that he has spoken to Rodgers. There are some other veterans available on the open market, including both Amari Cooper and Gabe Davis. Pittsburgh has already brought Davis in for a visit, but he left without a deal. Some have speculated that he was not fully recovered from his meniscus injury, which could mean he might be an option further down the road. Steelers Fans Should Keep Their Eyes On Various Receiver Rooms Around The League One team that the Steelers could look to steal a wide receiver from is the New England Patriots. It does not seem like second-year wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk is going to make the final roster, especially since he is playing under a different head coach versus the one that drafted him. It is completely reasonable to think that either Polk, Kendrick Bourne, or Kayshon Boutte could be on the chopping block. If that is the case, Pittsburgh could swoop in and try to pick up whoever is let go. Another team to keep an eye on is the Green Bay Packers, although that wide receiver room is extremely beat up with injuries right now and it is hard to project who will be on the final roster. Do you want Pittsburgh to add at wide receiver?
Perhaps Superman Paul Skenes has found his kryptonite
Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes may continue to be one of the top contenders for the National League Cy Young Award, but there is one place where he has appeared mortal this season. On Tuesday night, the Milwaukee Brewers did to Skenes what they have done to plenty of MLB pitchers in 2025 ... put up big offensive numbers. For the second time this season (Skenes also pitched in Milwaukee on June 25), the Brewers forced him from the game after just 4.0 innings on Tuesday night, logging six hits and four runs during his time on the mound. Both of those performances came at Milwaukee's home stadium (American Family Field) and both are now Skenes' shortest outings of the season. While another NL Central team has put up more runs against Skenes this season (the St. Louis Cardinals nicked him for five runs in 6.0 innings on April 8), no other team has had the same kind of success over multiple starts by Skenes in 2025 as have the Brewers inside their home stadium. In all this season, Skenes has given up 10 hits and eight runs in 8.0 innings in Milwaukee. It was his third career outing on the road against the Brewers, with his lone 2024 start representing arguably the best outing of his rookie season. On July 11, 2024, Skenes struck out 11 and didn't allow a hit over 7.0 innings as the Pirates would eventually post a 1-0 victory. Tuesday's short outing was highlighted by a pair of Milwaukee home runs, including a leadoff solo shot by Sal Frelick that quickly set the tone for the Brewers. While Milwaukee's hit parade helped raise Skenes' ERA on the season to 2.13, it's hardly any reason for concern in a season where the 23-year-old right-hander is still a heavy favorite (-600) to win the NL Cy Young Award, per BetMGM. Skenes struggling in Milwaukee is likely more yet another stamp of approval on the Brewers' potential to be a threat once the postseason arrives. With an 18-4 record since the All-Star break entering Tuesday, Milwaukee has taken over the NL Central race from the Chicago Cubs. So what's the good news for Skenes? This is Pittsburgh's last trip to Milwaukee this season and the next-to-last series for the Pirates against the red-hot Brewers. Milwaukee will visit PNC Park for a three-game series on Sept. 5-7, and if Skenes gets a chance for revenge against Milwaukee, there couldn't be a better place for him to take the mound. This season, in 11 starts covering 68.2 innings, Skenes has a 1.70 ERA in the Steel City.
