Inter between satisfaction and regret for the 3-3 away win at the Barcelona ground, with the Champions League final within the reach of the Nerazzurri who, however, saw themselves come back from 2-0 down and then 3-2 down by the Blaugrana. This is why Marcus Thuram doesn’t trust the Nerazzurri’s result ahead of the return match at San Siro.

“After the draw away from home, the challenge against Barcelona remains 50-50 – Thuram said in an ’interview with ‘CBS Sports’ -. I think they will have a lot of ball possession in Milan as well, but Inter play at home so we should improve in that aspect as well. But the match will probably be similar in performance to what we saw in the’first leg”.

Thuram then anticipated a possible tactical key that could help his Inter team in the return semifinal: “Barcelona always plays high. But when you have 11 players who press you constantly, and they often do it inside your own half of the field, you have to find a solution to contain them. To defend you have to stay low, and that isn&#8217t easy, but then you can break away on the counterattack and become you dangerous”.

“The field is very big, but Barcelona is able to cover it all with their pressing. Playing against champions of this level is a nightmare, but we can also go against their goalkeeper when he controls the ball. Their technical level is very high, and they know how to get between the lines. To succeed, Inter will have to do the same” Thuram concluded.

Frederic Vasseur believes in Ferrari’s growth, with the stated goal of doing even better in Miami than what was collected in this dull start of 2025. Charles Leclerc is back from the not-expected podium collected in Saudi Arabia, and the general hope is that in the first round of the Formula 1 season in the United States the recent progress will allow the Cavallino to collect more outstanding results.

“The Miami Grand Prix will be special, in several respects – stressed Vasseur -It will be the second weekend of the season with a Sprint Race, and for this reason we have dedicated several days in Maranello to analyze the data we have collected in the three consecutive races in Asia. We will only have one hour of free practice on Friday, so we will have to go out on track already prepared”.

“We have worked a lot in the factory, we have tried to do the best we can, and for these reasons the specific weight of what we have done in the simulator and in the briefing with the Ferrari preparers is even greater”, Vasseur added further.

“The SF-25 has shown encouraging progress both in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia– recalled Vasseur – And so in Miami, too, we want Ferrari to continue to make progress especially in pure performance”.

All Milan soccer club: the future of the Rossoneri goalkeeper is yet to be defined. Goalkeeper of the last scudetto and now also captain of the team, Mike Maignan was certain of a contract extension complete with a tweak of the salary. The problems reported in the last season, however, are delaying the’operation, so much so that management is also looking at other solutions. One of which involves replacing him with Marco Carnesecchi.

The ‘Corriere dello Sport’ reports that Milan management and Maignan’s entourage are experiencing a stalemate. The French goalkeeper currently has a contract set to expire on June 30, 2026, which means it is necessary to finalize everything by the summer to avoid him starting next season with the possibility of freeing himself at parameter zero.

Hence the doubts of Milan, taking into account the fact that Maignan already earns almost 5 million a year. It is precisely this aspect that is currently holding back the reaching of an agreement, while at the same time increasing the chances of the Rossoneri number 1’s departure. Especially in the Premier League, there would be no shortage of possibilities, and a transfer would allow the Diavolo to save on a rich salary and forfeit precious millions to return to the market.

If this were the club’s decision, then, Milan would jump on the trail of Marco Carnesecchi. The young goalkeeper from Atalanta is coming off a season at the highest level and could follow the same path as his predecessor Marco Sportiello. There would, of course, be a need to convince the Orobian management, which in recent years has been very unwilling to grant discounts. Hence the stalemate, which Via Aldo Rossi needs to resolve as soon as possible.
