The Bianconeri issued a statement on Tuesday downplaying the problem Chiellini sustained in Saturday’s 0-0 draw with SPAL. A “niggling injury” to the flexor muscles of the 33-year-old’s right thigh has been revealed as the reason for his withdrawal from the Italy squad. While he will miss the international matches against Argentina and England, Chiellini could be in the frame for his club’s home game against AC Milan on March 31....

Texas Representative Henry Cuellar, who represents a border district and has not been shy about criticizing the Biden administration on immigration, told Newsweek the story of his visit to the Carrizo Springs facility in Texas on Friday, where young migrant teens are being held. Speaking to 20 young men, he asked them how many had heard messaging from the administration that now is not the time to make the trek to the U....

Julian Green leaves Bayern Munich for Stuttgart Ten games into Bradley’s run as the Swans boss and his squad has only managed to pick up wins in two of the contests over that span. Swansea’s last two contests have seen away defeats of 3-1 and 3-0 to West Bromwich and Middlesbrough respectively, leaving supporters skeptical of whether the former manager of the United States and Egypt national teams is up to the task....

Chapek took over as Disney’s chief executive when Iger left in 2020 after serving as CEO for 15 years. For two years, the company had little reason to complain about Chapek’s leadership, as he successfully navigated Disney through the pandemic. Under his command, the company’s streaming platform Disney+ grew its audience to rival that of Netflix and Hulu, and the theme parks reinforced their business after two years of COVID-19-related closures....

Slumping into Kimmel’s guest chair, Odenkirk proudly proclaimed Nobody’s status as the “number 1 movie in the country!” The newly minted action star really played into what was surely a painstakingly applied set of convincingly bloodied-up makeup, slurring his words and bragging about all of his injuries. It got to the point where it almost became difficult to tell what was real and what he was exaggerating for the bit, and for a seasoned comedy heavy hitter like Odenkirk, that was most likely by design....

Charlotte Bobcats center Al Jefferson got off to a sterling start against the Miami Heat in Game 1 of the NBA playoffs, posting a 4-of-4 mark from the field for eight points. Things quickly went awry afterward, however, when Jefferson started to limp and called for a timeout. Jefferson took off his shoe and struggled to get to the locker room, where he needed to have a painkiller shot to continue playing through a strained plantar fascia....

The 21-year-old expectant mother was four-and-a-half months pregnant with another child at home when she was reported missing from Upper Darby last Tuesday, March 30. Brice’s body was found around 11 p.m. on Monday at 58th Street and Eastwick Avenue, the Philadelphia Police Department confirmed to Newsweek. She was last seen at a laundromat in Landsdowne before leaving with her boyfriend, Justin Smith, 23, at about 1 p.m. on Tuesday last week, the Upper Darby Police Department said in a series of tweets released over the weekend....

The report, jointly produced by the Center for Countering Digital Hate and the Human Rights Campaign, was written as a response to “a growing wave of violence, hate and demonization targeting LGBTQ+ people in the United States.” It focuses on “the false and baseless lie that LGBTQ+ people ‘groom’ children,” which the authors said had “driven offline hate crimes.” The report listed the top 10 Twitter accounts that have promoted the “groomer narrative,” with Boebert, a Colorado Republican, in third place....

Bolt said the coach of his Central Coast Mariners, Mike Mulvey, had indicated he would be in the starting line-up in a friendly against Macarthur South West United in Sydney. “For me, that’s always a good step, when the coach is satisfied with your fitness to put you in the starting line up – that’s always a big step,” Bolt told Mariners’ club media Wednesday. “I am just happy to get the chance and go out there and start, and do my best because that is the key thing....

Usain Bolt would have made Muhammad Ali proud as he vowed the star-struck audience here Tuesday with one-liners and a bit of justifiable arrogance laced with humour, reminiscent of the boxing great during his salad days decades ago. In city on one-day sponsor commitment trip, Bolt devoted a little over 30 minutes fielding questions from local athletes, the twitterati and the media during a session that also showcased the Jamaican’s penchant for showmanship besides his obvious bias for the 200 metres sprint rather than 100, disciplines in which he holds the world records of 19....

The regional Safety Advisory Group has placed a prohibition notice on the club, meaning supporters cannot enter the University of Bolton Stadium until it can be proved they can “deliver the matchday operation to the standard required”. It means the games against Ipswich on April 6 and Middlesbrough on April 9 are under threat. The EFL said in a statement on Tuesday: “Whilst disappointed, the EFL understands the rationale for the position taken by the SAG at this time....

PSG fell behind to Jean-Eudes Aholou’s sixth-minute opener but Julian Draxler, Neymar and Angel Di Maria made it 3-1 by the midway point of the first half. Edinson Cavani’s brace secured a 5-2 victory after Stephane Bahoken pulled a goal back as Emery’s men partially banished the memories of the 3-1 midweek reverse at the Santiago Bernabeu in the first leg of the teams’ Champions League last-16 tie. “The win is important after we lost to Madrid....

“Look what #TeamHPL found in one of our drop boxes recently!” a tweet from the library read. “HPL originally had this book on its shelves in 1980, and was last checked out on December 13, 1993. A new edition was printed in 2009. Welcome back home, lost one!” Lisa Radha Weaver, the library’s director of collections and program development, told CBC she wasn’t sure where the book has been when it was off of the shelves....

Kornegay's most pressing issue of the week is getting a deal worked out with Churchill Downs so the LVH – and every other race book in Nevada – can be tied into the track's pari-mutuel wagers for the Kentucky Derby. He's mum on the subject because the Nevada Pari-Mutuel Association, which he's part of, and the track are still in negotiations. If a deal isn't reached, the state’s race books will have to book Saturday's Derby action themselves, which requires an extensive process with lots of extra prep work for the staff and auditing....

Horvat scored two more highlight-reel goals for the Canucks in their 4-3 overtime win in Game 2 — a short-handed tally in which he undressed two St. Louis forwards, and then the OT game-winner on a breakaway after he zoomed past two defensemen while doing a little goal-hanging. NHL BRACKET: Series results, schedule The winner was doubly huge because it negated Jaden Schwartz’s disputed tying goal with 6.4 seconds to go in regulation....

A series of separate pitch invasions occurred during the second half of the loss at the London Stadium and fans also protested in front of the directors’ box, leading to members of the board leaving early due to concerns over their safety. Tempers boiled over following West Ham’s third defeat in a row, which left them just three points clear of the relegation zone. The Hammers have endured problems ever since moving to the London Stadium and supporters have made their discontent clear, following issues settling into their new home and with player recruitment....

That’s the word from Las Vegas, where the Board of Governors concluded two days of meetings ahead of Wednesday’s NHL Awards show. MORE: Say hello to 3-on-3 overtime | NHL Awards | 2015 NHL Entry Draft Not coincidentally, Vegas is No. 1 on the list of cities posturing from an expansion franchise. Others include Seattle.

The Germany international has sustained a “minor muscle problem” and will not be risked for the game against last season’s beaten finalists at the Allianz Arena. Lewandowski close to Bayern deal “He has some discomfort and he will miss out,” head coach Carlo Ancelotti told a news conference. “It’s a minor muscle problem.” Ancelotti also confirmed that attacking duo Julian Green and Kingsley Coman are not fit to be involved, but Holger Badstuber and Xabi Alonso should both be available....
