Weah had been selected Wednesday by interim U.S. coach Anthony Hudson for CONCACAF Nations League matches against Grenada and El Salvador. It was unclear whether Weah would be able to rejoin the national squad during the international break later this month, although Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier said on the Lille website that his teammate is “fine” and was able to celebrate the win.Alexsandro Ribeiro broke the deadlock six minutes from time as Lille moved up to fifth place.

And I don’t see a team.”Conte became known as a serial winner after leading both Juventus and Inter Milan to the Serie A title and Chelsea to the Premier League crown.

Seconds later, Freddie Gaudreau made a nice pass from the corner to Oskar Sundqvist and the former Blue jammed it home at 7:17 to pull Minnesota to within a goal.But the B’s went back to work after that and r...Latest news
