But their 2-1 aggregate win over PSV Eindhoven in the previous round has left them just 180 minutes away from reaching the May 25 final in Tirana. But standing in their way are a Roma side managed by Jose Mourinho, who also has the chance to create some history for his current employers....
A report in Germany has claimed that the European champions are interested in signing the 25-year-old as they look to bolster their goalkeeping options for next season. Madrid have been heavily linked with Manchester United’s David de Gea and Thibaut Courtois of Chelsea, but Leno has reportedly emerged as a more viable option as he is said to have a release clause in his Leverkusen contract of just €20million....

The Ministry of Public Health announced a record-high of 309 new infections on Tuesday, as well as seven new deaths caused by the novel coronavirus. That brings the Mediterranean nations totals to 7,121 cases and 87 deaths since the start of the pandemic. While the overall numbers remain relatively low, health officials are concerned at the surge in new cases amid the myriad of other crises facing Lebanon. “COVID-19 had already drained the health sector even before last week’s explosion, but now – in the aftermath of this disaster – it is causing even more suffering....

The Cavaliers star decided to have a little fun gettin loose during shoot around. In what looks effortless, James simply winds up and throws a football-style pass into the hoop. There is no earthly reason for one person to be this good.

The 13-year-old son of the Cavs superstar recently competed at the John Lucas All-Star Weekend in Houston and showed off his preternatural passing ability.

On Wednesday here at the TD Garden, Boston ground its way to a brilliant and desperately needed 117-108 win over Toronto to scotch a three-game losing streak that had the Celtics’ season yet again on the brink of unraveling. NBA WRAP: Irving’s dominant finish pushes Celtics over Raptors Celtics star Kyrie Irving was the show, with 27 points (on 11-for-19 shooting) and 18 assists, but after the game, Irving stole the show from himself, saying he hasn’t been much of a leader to date....

Dwyane Wade, James’ teammate with the Miami Heat, was a free agent this offseason before ultimately signing with his hometown Chicago Bulls. James hoped the Cleveland would scoop him up, but understood there was one big reason why that wasn’t possible. “We couldn’t afford him,” James said via ESPN. “It’s that simple.” Wade, 34, signed a two-year deal worth $47 million in the NBA’s now staggering market. The three-time NBA champion and 12-time All-Star averaged 19 points per game last season, but he has lost a step....
The 41-year-old died along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven other people when the helicopter they were traveling in crashed outside just outside Los Angeles on January 26. On Monday, a “celebration of life” for Bryant and his daughter was held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles in front of over 20,000 people. James praised the ceremony, but suggested it was premature to talk about it providing closure to the NBA community and the Los Angeles Lakers in particular....
In a series of tweets Thursday, James called for everyone in California to support the bill. He wrote, in part: “This law is a GAME CHANGER. College athletes can responsibly get paid for what they do and the billions they create.” The bill is intended to punch “a hole in unfair rules that exploit college athletes and allow the NCAA, universities, TV networks, and corporate sponsors to pocket huge sums,” according to the website for Sen....
After a week with two posterization dunks that gathered plenty attention, James threw in another jaw-dropper in the Miami Heat's Christmas Day game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The final product is worth a look....
As President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka descended on the Games in Pyeongchang, world champion Ledecka reigned supreme with a confident victory in the women’s parallel giant slalom. It came after last week’s shock super-G win for Ledecka, daughter of a Czech rock star and composer, who has stunned ski purists and confounded logic by taking gold in two very different events. With Saturday’s win, Ledecka joins Thorleif Haug and Johan Groettumsbraten as the only athletes to achieve a multi-sport double at the Winter Games....

“This is a really strange situation with Barr, who has so many conflicts and is up to his eyeballs in all of the corruption surrounding Trump,” attorney Nick Akerman told Newsweek. Akerman served an assistant special prosecutor in the Watergate scandal that brought down President Richard Nixon. The attorney general plays no official role in impeachment, but that hasn’t stopped Barr from coming to Trump’s defense on multiple occasions. The Justice Department’s top official often protected the Trump administration throughout the inquiry and went so far as to suggest that Democrats are “trivializing” impeachment by using it as a “political tool....
