Juventus Player Ratings vs Bologna: Early Thuram Strike Only Worth One Point

Juventus Player Ratings vs Bologna: Early Thuram Strike Only Worth One Point

Yahoo04-05-2025

Bologna and Juventus shared the spoils in one of the most anticipated Serie A fixtures in the race for the Champions League. Khephren Thuram stunned the Renato Dall'Ara crowds by scoring an early opener, but Remo Freuler pulled off an equalizer in the second period. Both clubs had their chances to win the contest, but the scoreline remained intact. So here are our player ratings for Juventus who settled for a 1-1 draw against their direct Champions League foes, Bologna.
Juventus (3-4-2-1)
Michele Di Gregorio – 6
The Italian goalkeeper didn't have too many saves to make. He thought he had Freuler's shot covered, but it deflected off Veiga's foot.

Pierre Kalulu – 5.5
It wasn't a bad outing from the French defender, but perhaps he should have done better to close down the cross that culminated in Bologna's goal.
Renato Veiga – 6
It was a solid display from the Chelsea loanee, but his attempt to block Freuler's shot dramatically backfired.
Nicolò Savona – 6.5
An impressive performance from the young right-back who had to cover at the back due to an injury crisis. Pulled off several timely interceptions, especially against Riccardo Orsolini.
Timothy Weah – 5.5
An industrious display from the American, but it lacked a marquee moment.
Manuel Locatelli – 6
The Juventus captain kept things tidy in the middle of the park. He did well to protect the backline, but his presence wasn't felt in the attacking phase.

Khephren Thuram – 7
The French midfielder was lucky to beat Lukasz Skorupski with a tepid shot, but he arguably deserves a goal based on his dynamic display.
Andrea Cambiaso – 7
After weeks of underwhelming performances, the Juventus wingback produced a stellar display. Delivered the assist for Thuram, scored a goal that was disallowed for a marginal offiside, and had the better of Orsolini in their enticing duel. But unfortunately for the Italian, he left the pitch after picking up yet another knock.
Nicolas Gonzalez – 6
The Argentine found mild success in his dribbling, but his final product was missing at times. He left it all on the pitch, but was still disappointed to leave the pitch when Igor Tudor decided to replace him.

Weston McKennie – 6
The Texan's clever flick instigated the opener, but could have given away a spot-kick with a risky challenge.
Randal Kolo Muani – 6
The PSG loanee fought for the ball all over the pitch, and helped his team bring the ball forward. But he wasn't too far away from the goal to pose a threat.
Substitutes
Alberto Costa – 5
The young wingback squandered a sitter due to a heavy first touch. Left Juventus fans sweating every time he received the ball.

Neymar drops by Brazil's pre-match, fans celebrate in style

Neymar drops by Brazil's pre-match, fans celebrate in style – check it out Almost everything is ready for the Brazilian National Team to face Paraguay at the Neo Química Arena, at 9:45 pm (Brasília time), this Tuesday (10), the 16th and penultimate round of the South American Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Coach Carlo Ancelotti has even announced the official lineup! Advertisement In addition to the starters, the 66-year-old Italian coach has left out of the game left-back Carlos Augusto (Inter Milan) and midfielder Andreas Pereira (Fulham). But, while the ball doesn't roll in Itaquera, there's a lot of movement around the stadium. The Green and Yellow Movement, which usually makes noise in the stands in support of the National Team, is present around the Neo Química Arena. The "Pistola" Canarinho is also at the Corinthians' home to welcome the five-time world champions, including the "host" Hugo Souza. And even Giannis Antelounmpo, star of the Milwaukee Bucks, from the NBA, is also present at the NQA. And Neymar, the big star of this generation of Brazilian players, but who is still out of the National Team while trying to string together a series of games to get physically fit at Santos, was present at the concentration hotel to give that final support before the match.

Iowa baseball star earns Perfect Game All-American honors

Iowa baseball star earns Perfect Game All-American honors After a stellar junior campaign with the Hawkeyes, Iowa baseball ace pitcher Cade Obermueller has been named a Perfect Game third-team All-American. The left-hander is the Hawkeyes' first All-American honoree since Brody Brecht and Keaton Anthony earned it in 2023. The Iowa City, Iowa native earned the third-team All-America distinction after going 5-3 with a 3.02 ERA in 15 starts. He posted five quality starts and fanned 117 batters over 83.1 innings. His 117 punchouts rank second all-time in program history for strikeouts in a season. The highlight of Obermueller's 2024-25 season was his complete-game performance at Northwestern on March 4. In that game, he recorded a career-high 12 strikeouts while giving up only one hit, one run, and one base-on-balls in a 12-1 Hawkeyes run-rule win. Obermueller's third-team All-American honors add to his growing list of accomplishments from the past season, which now includes a 2025 All-Big Ten Tournament team and an ABCA/Rawlings NCAA All-Midwest Region first-team selection. While Obermueller could be in line for more honors following the conclusion of the 2025 College World Series later this month, a potential return for his senior season with the Hawkeyes could be vital to the program's success as they hope to return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2023.

Mary Lou Retton pleads no contest, fined $100 for DUI, says she's committed to make positive changes

FAIRMONT, (AP) — American gymnastics icon Mary Lou Retton on Tuesday entered a no contest plea to driving under the influence stemming from a May traffic stop in her hometown of Fairmont. A Marion County judge fined her $100, consistent with sentencing guidelines for first-time, non-aggravated offenses, her attorney Edmund J. Rollo said in a statement. In a statement released through her attorney, the 57-year-old Retton said she took full responsibility for her actions. 'What happened was completely unacceptable. I make no excuses,' she said. "To my family, friends and my fans: I have let you down, and for that I am deeply sorry. I am determined to learn and grow from this experience, and I am committed to making positive changes in my life. I truly appreciate your concern, encouragement and continued support." Fairmont police stopped Retton on May 17 following a report about a person in a Porsche driving erratically. According to the criminal complaint, Retton smelled of alcohol and was slurring her words, and she failed a field sobriety test. Officers also reported observing a container of wine in the passenger seat. Retton was 16 when she became the first American female gymnast to win the all-around at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. She also won two silver and two bronze medals to help bring gymnastics into the mainstream in the United States. In 2023, Retton's family disclosed she was recuperating from a rare form of pneumonia that landed her in intensive care. Doctors found her oxygen levels dangerously low. Her medical team considered putting her on a ventilator as her conditioned worsened. Retton went on oxygen treatment and, after weeks in the hospital, improved enough to be sent home. ___ AP sports:
