Go for it, Goddess

All about Scamacca, the anti-Borussia Dortmund player

👉Inter, goodbye to the Champions League: Bodo wins at San Siro too
No excuses

Inter’s embarrassing performance
A predictable and unthreatening team
The Norwegians reach the round of 16
Chivu’s disappointment: “We were never competitive.”

👉Torino’s restart
Cairo launches D’Aversa
“The situation needs to be turned around.”

👉Capello: “Champions League odds are lower.”
Jashari next to Modric
Milan moved: the double playmaker

Front Page La Gazzetta dello Sport, Wednesday 25 February 2026

Today’s Front Page Corriere dello Sport, Wednesday 25 February 2026

👉Champions League, big disappointment: Bodo wins also in San Siro (1-2)
Inter disaster

No comeback
Chivu out in the playoffs: not a comeback

Akanji’s blunder: former AC Milan player Hauge strikes again.
The Swiss player gets the ball.
A futile siege.
Evjen doubles the lead
Bastoni closes the gap.
From two finals in three seasons to a resounding collapse.

👉Galatasaray is at the stadium (21)
Lucio for the feat: starting from 2-5
Juve, worth 15 million

Spalletti chasing the round of 16: “We’re asking the fans for help, it’s a difficult time for us.” Yildiz and Bremer are back
Osi: “Me, here in the future? Who knows.”

👉Atalanta-Borussia Dortmund (6.45pm)

Front Page Corriere dello Sport, Wednesday 25 February 2026

Today’s Front Page Tutto Sport, Wednesday 25 February 2026

👉Torino, the President’s annoyances at D’Aversa’s presentation
Club, stadium, team
Cairo, now he’s cornered

“Sell? I’ve expressed my availability, but I haven’t received any offers. I’d like the Grande Torino, I’ll evaluate the price. The Museum? The Foundation’s fault. The B nightmare? All right, so many mistakes, I apologize to the fans.” A protest with manure at the Fila. The new coach adds: “Vlasic’s words? Everyone must behave like professionals: if someone doesn’t get there on their own, I’ll impose them.”

👉 Tonight against Galatasaray, three goals to come back from behind.
Remember, you’re Juventus.

Chasing a feat rarely achieved in history, reaching the round of 16. Spalletti launches a 4-3-3 formation with Weston McKennie at left back: “It’s a difficult time, but with the fans, we can do it.” A Kenan Yildiz-style contract is ready for Dusan Vlahovic.

👉Bodo also wins at San Siro: 2-1
Inter’s embarrassing performance
€20 million goes up in smoke

A glaring defensive error by Akanji paves the way for Hauge, who then provides the assist for the 2-0 lead. The comeback attempt ends with Bastoni’s goal. Receding from the Champions League before the round of 16 is a costly undertaking for the Nerazzurri.

👉And Osimhen calls
“Playing for Juve would be a privilege.”

👉We start with a 2-0 deficit against Dortmund
Bergamo pushes Atalanta

👉The results of a YouTrend survey
Fans criticize the referees
“And Inter are getting help.”

👉The new coach, called upon to avoid Serie B, will be with Torino until June.
D’Aversa, the choice of desperation

After constantly encouraging him, reversing criticism, Cairo also kicks out Baroni and hires the only coach willing to accept the Torino situation: he signs a four-month contract. The fans: when will the president be sacked? 1-0 against Pisa: Fiorentina 3 points behind.

👉Juve
First anti-crisis move: Wes’s renewal is just around the corner.
MacKennie shakes his hand.

⚫️🟢   Sassuolo 3 – 0 Hellas Verona  🟡🔵

Sassuolo triumphed at the Mapei Stadium against Hellas Verona. Sassuolo has now gathered 35 points. On the other hand, Verona is facing difficulties at the bottom of the table with just 15 points and a concerning goal difference of -27. Andrea Pinamonti and Domenico Berardi, with Berardi scoring after a rebound from a penalty saved by Montipò, secured the three points in the first half, and Berardi added another goal in the second half. Verona was also reduced to ten players since the 85th minute when Al Musrati received a red card for a second yellow. Sassuolo got their second consecutive win, bringing them closer to safety. Sadly for Verona, their chances of remaining in Serie A next season appear quite grim.

⚪️⚫️    Juventus 0 – 2 Como   ⚪️🔵 

Absolutely astonishing, what a downfall, a complete shock! Juventus faced defeat in their home ground in Turin. The harsh truth is that Juventus faltered at the Allianz. The final score was 2-0 in favor of Como, with goals from Mërgim Vojvoda and Maxence Caqueret. Como rightfully celebrated a historic win, reaching 45 points and closing in on Juventus, which has 46 points, and significantly narrowing the gap to the fourth position. It’s hard to swallow, but Juventus has now lost four out of its last five games. The current goal is for Juventus to regroup and attempt a nearly impossible comeback against Galatasaray in the Champions League.

🟡🔴     Lecce 0 – 2 Inter ⚫️🔵  

The Scudetto appears to be within reach for the Nerazzurri! Inter secured victory at the Via del Mare Stadium. Despite facing some challenges, Inter successfully overcame Lecce, thanks to goals from Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Manuel Akanji. Inter currently leads the standings with 64 points. This marks Inter’s ninth consecutive away league victory. Lecce, despite a commendable performance, ultimately falters. The concern is that Lecce is edging closer to the relegation zone, having accumulated only 24 points.

🔴🔵   Cagliari 0 – 0 Lazio  ⚪️🔵 

Cagliari and Lazio ended up in a 0-0 stalemate, with no goals scored at the Unipol Domus. Each team earned 1 point from the match. Cagliari now has 29 points, while Lazio has 34 points. Lazio’s aim to break into the European zone is still quite distant. Como currently holds the 6th position with 45 points, which creates an 11-point gap.

🔴🔵    Genoa 3 – 0 Torino  🐂 
⚫️🔵    Atalanta 2 – 1 Napoli  🔵

Atalanta achieved a remarkable victory by triumphing against Napoli at the New Balance Arena in Bergamo. To add to the significance, Atalanta came from behind with goals from Mario Pašalić and Lazar Samardžić, overcoming Napoli in the second half to secure three vital points for their ascent. In simple terms, Atalanta defeated the reigning Italian champions 2-1, bringing their total to 45 points, while Napoli remained at 50 points.

 🔴⚫️  AC Milan 0 – 1 Parma  🟡🔵 

AC Milan suffered a loss in their home game at the San Siro Stadium. They were expected to respond to Inter’s victory and the losses of Juventus and Napoli, but they were unexpectedly defeated 1-0 by Parma. As a result, Inter stays 10 points ahead of Milan with 54 points, significantly impacting the Scudetto race, while the Rossoneri still hold a 4-point advantage over Napoli, a 7-point lead over Roma, and an 8-point cushion over Juventus. This outcome also allowed Parma to make significant progress in their fight against relegation, bringing their total to 32 points.  Parma’s victory was secured by Mariano Troilo’s crucial goal in the 80th minute. However, this goal led to more controversy regarding officiating, as it was initially ruled out on the field but later confirmed after a lengthy VAR and OFR review.

🟡🔴   AS Roma – Cremonese  🩶❤️   
💜⚜️    Fiorentina 1 – 0 Pisa   ⚫️🔵    

Fiorentina successfully completed their mission by securing a victory at the Artemio Franchi Stadium. A goal in the first half from Moise Kean was sufficient to determine the outcome of the Tuscan derby between Fiorentina and Pisa. With this win, Fiorentina achieved their third consecutive victory across both the league and the Conference, bringing their total to 24 points in the standings, which places them tied for third-last with Cremonese and Lecce. On the other hand, the unfortunate news is for Pisa, who remain at 15 points, sinking deeper into last place alongside Verona in the relegation zone.

🔴🔵    Bologna 1 – 0 Udinese   ⚪️⚫️ 

Bologna narrowly triumphed over Udinese at the Renato Dall’Ara Stadium. This victory marked the end of Bologna’s home drought that had persisted since November. With this win, Bologna accumulated 36 points, inching closer to the European Zone, while Como holds the 6th position with 45 points. Udinese remains in 11th place with 32 points.   In the 75th minute, Bernardeschi scored from the penalty spot after Castro was fouled, although his initial attempt was saved by Karlström.

Check out the headlines from Italian newspapers regarding the outcomes of Serie A Week 26.
