Tour de France Stage 4 results, standings: Tadej Pogacar beats rivals at finish
Three-time Tour de France and current world champion Tadej Pogačar of Slovenia surged past Mathieu van der Poel and rival Jonas Vingegaard near the finish line to take Stage 4 and inch closer to grabbing control of the yellow jersey. It was Pogačar's first stage win this year, and 18th overall stage win at the Tour de France. The race, which took place on a 174.2-kilometer course between Amiens and Rouen and featured several late climbs, also became the 100th victory of his professional career.
Van der Peul began the day with the yellow jersey and will retain it heading into a crucial individual time trial in Caen on Wednesday, July 9 for Stage 5. He and Pogačar are currently tied in overall time, eight seconds ahead of Vingegaard. American Matteo Jorgenson sits in fourth. Pogačar, who races for UAE Team Emirates XRG, also moved ahead of Belgian Tim Wellens to claim the polka dot jersey as the top climber at the Tour de France through Stage 4.

US winger Tim Weah returns to French soccer with move from Juventus to Marseille
United States winger Tim Weah completed his move to Marseille on Wednesday after an inconsistent two-year stint at Juventus. The 25-year-old Weah's return to Ligue 1 will initially be on loan with an obligation to buy for a fee that could rise to 18 million euros ($21 million), according to French media reports. Weah's father, former FIFA Player of the Year George Weah, played one season at Marseille — 25 years ago near the end of his playing career. Marseille qualified for the Champions League by finishing as runner-up to Paris Saint-Germain last season. Neither Marseille nor Juventus disclosed financial details of Weah's move. In 78 total appearances for the Bianconeri, Weah scored seven goals, six of which came last season. He spent four seasons at Lille, which won the Ligue 1 title in 2021, before switching to Juventus in 2023. The New York-born Weah has scored seven goals in 44 appearances for the United States, including a goal at the 2022 World Cup in a 1-1 draw with Wales. ___ AP soccer:

'A perfect spot for him' - Tony Meola endorses Tim Weah's reported move to Olympique Marseille, suggests USMNT player wanted out of Juventus
Meola says Weah pushed for a transfer Says positional inconsistency is motivation Marseille a competitive destination with familiar league WHAT HAPPENED With Tim Weah reportedly a transfer target for Olympique Marseille, former USMNT star Tony Meola endorsed the potential move away from Juventus, especially joining a team with Champions League aspirations. 'Marseille has spent some money over the last two years,' Meola said on the CBS Sports Golazo America podcast. 'This could be a fit... I'm interested to see where Roberto De Zerbi thinks he's going to play. Does he think he's going to play as a wing back because he plays in like a 3-4-3? Does he think he's going to play a little bit higher up the field when he does play with four. Is he a fullback? Is he a winger in that group? "So maybe and he plays on that right side like a right winger so you know... so it's a team that has spent some money and over the last couple years have said that they want to compete at the top of the table and be in Champions League." WHAT MEOLA SAID Meola noted that Weah appeared to be advocating for the move despite playing significant minutes at Juventus last season. 'It seems like he sort of now pushing for this move," Meola said. "There's a couple things that could happen. The messaging he got from Igor Tudor is not the messaging he wanted to hear. He didn't like the situation he was in last year, where he was every week we're just trying to figure out where the hell Timothy Weah was going to fit in and where he was going to play." Meola suggested that Weah was unhappy at Juventus, and wanted to make a move to what he considers a perfect destination. 'I feel like this is more Timothy Weah talking about he wants to move and all of this stuff - the rumors are that he is interested in moving and that he's basically spoken to the club about moving," he said. "I feel like it's coming more from him, which leads me to believe that he's just not happy with what's happening at Juve. It's just a massive club but I still go back to, it's a club where he had really good success last year and was on a great pathway until the initial injury albeit with a different manager at the time. "But it still looked like he was finally settling into a club - remember he won a Coppa Italia the year before... So he's got a nice little history at the club but it just seems like he wants out at Juve and this seems a perfect spot for him.' THE BIGGER PICTURE Weah signed for Juventus in the summer of 2023 from LOSC Lille, and has since made 78 appearances for the club, contributing to 14 goals across all competitions. WHAT'S NEXT? Weah is expected to sign with Olympique Marseille on loan with a €14 million obligation to buy.
