The former Italy international played the full 90 minutes in the first leg in Turin, but sat out Saturday’s win at Benevento with an abdomen injury and reportedly missed training ahead of the trip to Madrid. Paulo Dybala and Rodrigo Bentancur are also absent due to suspension, although Miralem Pjanic is back. Federico Bernadeschi is close to a return, but he is not among the travelling party. Regardless of injuries, coach Massimiliano Allegri is refusing to rule out progression despite Juve needing to overturn a three-goal deficit in Wednesday’s clash....

Barzal, who netted a pair of goals in the first period and another to start the third, recorded his first hat trick of his career in their 5-2 win. He became the youngest Islander to record the feat at 20 years and 211 days since John Tavares did in 2011. Barzal’s first goal came early in the first period. He caught a pass from Jordan Eberle right in front of the goal and fired the puck past Winnipeg goalie Steve Mason to give the Islanders a 2-0 lead....

I lost count how many Braves fans responded, singing the praises of radio play-by-play man Jim Powell. It was really impressive. Almost as impressive as how Powell personally replied with tweets of thanks to everyone who mentioned him. It’s the little things that often speak to the character of a person. Anyway, that little exercise made Powell the perfect first local broadcaster to feature for our new regular segment, Baseball Voices....

Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce, Ben Wallace and Chris Webber headline the Basketball Hall of Fame’s Class of 2021, which includes 16 worthy inductees, each of whom will be presented by a current member of the Hall of Fame at Saturday’s enshrinement ceremony.

Personally, I have been able to live a more authentic life. I came out publicly in June 2013. I was embraced by my community as well as my team. The amazing part is what has occurred since telling my team I was gay. So much has taken place nationally in the basketball community. In many ways, basketball has been the forefront of the LGBT sports movement. Of course, it all started with Jason Collins making his announcement in Sports Illustrated....

The Bundesliga giants will need to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit in the Spanish capital on Tuesday if they are to deny the hosts a third successive final berth. While it appears a daunting prospect against the back-to-back European champions, Madrid did lose 3-1 at home to Juventus in the last round and also trailed Bayern 2-1 after 90 minutes in last season’s quarter-finals. Zinedine Zidane’s side ultimately prevailed on aggregate on both occasions, but Heynckes has seen enough to know an upset is possible....

The Germany international lasted just 10 minutes of Bayern’s 1-0 win before being forced off with what coach Jupp Heynckes hoped would only be “cramps”. Bayern 15/2 to win CL with dabblebet However, after undergoing examination on Sunday, Bayern have revealed the full extent of his injury, with the strain set to keep him out until the middle of next month.

The latest case came Friday when Baylor associate athletics director for football operations Sean Padden decided to race a tackling dummy. The dummy is motorized, and is programmed to destroy humans (or so we think, anyways). Still, Padden thought it’d be best to race the dummy, which provided some incredible footage. So man wins … kind of. While he won the footrace, the machine got the last laugh with a strong, form tackle....

The Biden campaign reportedly wants to broaden the Education Department’s role in civil rights enforcement to what it was during the Obama administration. At that time, the Department’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) prioritized systemic investigation over resolution of individual claims. If done properly, systemic investigations can impact thousands of students. The Trump administration pursued systemic sexual violence investigations at such places as Pennsylvania State University, Michigan State University, the University of Southern California and the Chicago Public Schools....

The singer took to both Twitter and Instagram on Monday to recount a recent run-in with a male industry executive, who she said criticized her for her age and told her that her brand was “confusing.” “Because… I’m a songwriter and I post sexy pics on my Instagram and that’s not what female songwriters are supposed to do, especially for my age. I’m 29,” she wrote alongside a black and white photo of herself in her underwear....

It is that fighting spirit that has allowed Beckerman to play in his first World Cup at age 32 and realize a dream he thought was already dead four years ago. Beckerman watched the 2010 World Cup as a fan, and to him, that is how he would watch every World Cup for the rest of his life. Even though he has been one of the best defensive midfielders in MLS for years, Beckerman was far down coach Bob Bradley’s depth chart heading into the 2010 World Cup and didn’t figure that he would get a chance at 2014 being a midfielder in his 30s....

Condit is hardly the first preacher’s son to fall from grace, and his sins may not go beyond the commonplace ones of bearing false witness and adultery. Like most of the people who have known Condit, the Reverend Leach refuses to believe that the congressman had anything to do with Chandra Levy’s disappearance. Yet there is little doubt that the congressman has led an elaborate double life over the years, playing the role of dutiful family man while leading a racier existence away from home....
