Fabio Pecchia trusts Parma’s newcomers and warns AC Milan

The challenge è difficult, but confidence in new faces there’è.
Fabio Pecchia promotes his Parma’s new signings, and expects them to do well even in the face of a big opponent like AC Milan. On the eve of the challenge against the Rossoneri, the ducal coach says that the latest arrivals in Emilia could already give their contribution to the team.
“Djuric, Ondrejka and Lovik are close to already being able to play. They just have to finish their adaptation phase,” Pecchia told a press conference. “Just a week ago Ondrejka played 80 minutes, and Djuric brings great experience. We will need him, as Bonny has a fever and will have to stay out. I am happy, becauseé all three are well and will be able to be in the game”.
For the rest, Parma will have to deal with the problems of some of its other members, who are still unavailable for Milan. “Estevez has been working for an extra weekù, and certainly his condition is improving. Bernabè instead è returned to work with the group and made some passes. He won’t be there tomorrow, but we are getting closer”, Pecchia said.
Against Milan, after all, Parma’s strategy è already clear. “We will face a strong team, which will force us to stay low and long phases of non-possession of the ball,” Pecchia stressed.
Against us there will be a great European team, with great qualities. That is why we will have to be able to defend well and then be proactive when the ball is ours. We have to force them at that point to run after us”.

Roland Garros, semifinals: Jannik Sinner doubles his lead over Novak Djokovic
Jannik Sinner doubles his set lead against Novak Djokovic in the second semifinal of Roland Garros 2025: in fact, the South Tyrolean also ended the second set in his favor, thanks to 7 games won against the Serb’s 5 at the end of a set that lasted one hour and 11 minutes. Open applause for the two contenders, protagonists of a match of the highest level.
Sinner was off to a good start already in the first set of the Roland Garros semifinal. In fact, the world number one, against Novak Djokovic, number 6 in the ranking and seeding, had won the first set 6-4 after 46 minutes of play, reacting to a somewhat’ contracted start with a few strokes capable of undermining the confidence with which Nole had presented himself to the match on Friday night.
The two men had already started off on the right foot in the first set of the Roland Garros semifinal.
Jannik Sinner arrived in Paris as the No. 1 seed, and from the first round onwards he overcame France’s Arthur Rinderknech 6-4, 6-3, 7-5, the other transalpine Richard Gasquet 6-3, 6-0, 6-4, Czech Jiri Lehecka 6-0, 6-1, 6-2, Russia’s Andrey Rublev 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 and Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik, beaten Wednesday by a score of 6-1, 6-5, 6-0.
Djokovic, on the other hand, reached the semifinals of the Paris slam on the wave of the 100th ATP tournament he won in his career, in Geneva: the Serb beat American Mackenzie McDonald with a triple 6-3, Frenchman Corentin Moutet 6-2, 6-2, 7-6(1), Austrian Filip Misolic 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, Britain’s Cameron Norrie 6-2, 6-3, 6-2, and German Alexander Zverev 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4.

MotoGp, Ducati: Marc Marquez warns those who give him as favorite
Although he dominated Friday’s two timed sessions at MotorLand Aragon, Marc Marquez wants to avoid feeling overconfident on the eve of the Sprint Race and the MotoGp d’Aragon Gp. In fact, the Catalan rider of the Ducati factory team wanted to make a comparison with the Gp of the Americas, the only race that saw him retire, in Sunday’s test.
“As we saw in Austin, all it takes is one mistake to jeopardize a great job in the previous days– said Marquez, speaking to ‘Sky Sport‘, on the sidelines of the first day on the track -. That was also a circuit that, like Aragon, I like very much, but a mistake can happen: I do not want to repeat that’negative experience”.
It’s objective, however, the superiority shown by the number 93, who inflicted on his brother Alex, second in both sessions, almost a second in the first session and two tenths in the second: “It’s a circuit where I feel very good – he confirmed -. Perhaps a difficulty is brought by the wind, it bothered me in the right turns, but we are working well on these details”.
Marc Marquez arrives in Aragon after the first weekend of the season in which he did not climb either on Saturday or Sunday on the top step of the podium: in fact, at Silverstone, the Catalan finished second in the Sprint won by Alex Marquez (Ducati Gresini) and third in the Sunday GP, behind Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia factory) and Johann Zarco (Honda LCR).

Lorenzo Musetti, message to fans after withdrawal at Roland Garros
Lorenzo Musetti’s adventure at Roland Garros 2025 ended with a bitter withdrawal in the semifinals: Friday’s match against Carlos Alcaraz was well played by the Carrarino, who won the first set and was also very close in the second, but it was the evidence of physical problems manifested between the third and fourth that convinced Musetti himself to raise the white flag.
A few hours after the match ended, the Italian tennis player entrusted his official social profiles with a message addressed to his fans: “This is not the way I wanted to end this fantastic tournament – he wrote -. I will come back stronger”. Musetti then applauded the first finalist of the Paris tournament: “Always a pleasure to share the court with a friend” he said, quoting Carlos Alcaraz with a tag.
Musetti’s disappointment is strong and had already been expressed in the press conference on the sidelines of the closing match: “It’was a great match, the way it ended makes me very sad– said the second-best Italian tennis player, at the current ATP ranking level, behind Jannik Sinner -. I had the opportunity to go ahead by two sets but Alcaraz” level is very high.
Tennis Italy will therefore still have to wait for an all-Italian final in a Grand Slam tournament, a milestone that was instead achieved in women’s tennis at the 2015 US Open, when Flavia Pennetta beat Roberta Vinci in two sets. Musetti, who will move up to the No. 6 position at the next ranking update, will now have to undergo specific examinations to assess her physical condition and quantify how long she will need to recover from today’s knockout.
