WWW.FOXSPORTS.COMAs Argentina Prepares for World Cup, Scaloni Hopes To Delay Messi's RetirementArgentina head coach Lionel Scaloni has admitted he is desperate to see Lionel Messi continue his international career, confessing that the prospect of life without the number 10 brings back painful memories of Diego Maradonas exit. As the national team prepare for the 2026 World Cup, the 38-year-old Inter Miami star's future remains the primary talking point for all. Scaloni's Plea For Messi To Stay Speaking to Conmebol, Scaloni expressed his desire to keep Messi on the pitch for as long as possible. The captain, who boasts 198 international caps and 116 goals, famously led Argentina to 2022 World Cup glory in Qatar alongside two Copa Amrica titles. While Argentina has submitted their preliminary 55-man squad for the upcoming tournament, the manager is not ready to say goodbye. Focusing on the present, he said: "Being able to see him play is something wonderful. Beyond whether it is his last World Cup or not. I don't like longing or thinking about what is going to happen, I want to enjoy the moment. Everyone wants to see him play." The Sad Comparison To Maradona The emotional weight of losing a generational talent weighs heavily on the Argentina boss, drawing parallels to the legendary Diego Maradona, who famously won the 1986 World Cup. Scaloni finds the idea of a squad without his talisman difficult to process. "I like to think that he is going to keep playing, because it makes you sad, as happened with Diego, not seeing him on the field anymore," he added. "They are players who marked the history of football. Thinking that he is not going to play anymore does not leave you at peace. I prefer to think about the present." A Dream Partnership For Argentina The three-time world champions are actively pursuing a fourth title, preparing with recent 2-1 and 5-0 friendly victories over Mauritania and Zambia. When asked how he would manage both Messi and Maradona, the coach insisted there would be no tactical headache. "Of course they would have played together in my national team. I don't think of a game system based on the coach but on the players, they were the best in the world and they adjust themselves," Scaloni explained. "They could complement each other easily and the problem would be for the rivals.". What Comes Next For The Champions? Ahead of their World Cup Group J campaign, Argentina face Honduras on June 7 and Iceland on June 10. Scalonis men then begin their title defense against Algeria on June 17, before meeting Austria on June 22 and Jordan on June 28, hoping their legendary captain delivers once again. 2026 FIFA World Cup: How To Watch The 2026 FIFA World Cup will run from June 11July 19, 2026.

WWW.FOXSPORTS.COMRavens' Coach Jesse Minter Dismisses Concern Over Lamar Jacksons OTA AbsenceLamar Jackson was absent from a voluntary practice for the Baltimore Ravens, and that usually raises eyebrows. New coach Jesse Minter didn't seem to be sweating it. "Lamars been one of our leaders of the offseason program, and he had a couple things going on yesterday and today, and I do expect him to be back soon," said Minter, who replaced John Harbaugh after last season. "Weve had some great conversations. I know when hes going to be back and again, Ill probably leave those between me and Lamar." Jackson's attendance at these types of OTAs has been sporadic over the years. It's hard to say how much that matters, but it's certainly an issue critics have pointed to from time to time. His contract, with two years remaining, has also been a significant topic lately after he and the Ravens did not agree to an extension before the start of free agency. Baltimore instead restructured Jackson's deal to create cap space. Jackson was at Minter's first minicamp with the Ravens last month. That camp wasn't open to reporters, but Tuesday's OTA was, and it offered a chance to see how the new coach handled practice on a hot day in Owings Mills. At the end, the team took part in a little game in which players from the offense and defense competed at throwing medicine balls. Minter said that's part of preparing the team to play well in the most important moments, something the Ravens have struggled with the past few years. "We end practice every day (with an) At our best when our best is needed period, and so that could be anything different. Today, we decided to do a little friendly competition," Minter said. "Right now, you cant really do the football competition, and so I thought it would be something different, something fun. I try to get guys to not know whats about to happen and answer the bell when their numbers called, and its as simple as that. Thats really all were trying to get done with that and make it fun, have the guys pull for each other." Earlier, there was a scary moment when running back Derrick Henry banged knees with another player and stayed down on the ground for a bit. He was able to resume practicing shortly thereafter. "The ground felt like a bed for a little while," he said. "And I saw you all (reporters) looking hot and bored, so I was like, I need to give them something to tweet and write about."

SPORTS.YAHOO.COMBills' Joe Brady provides glowing endorsement of Keon Coleman ahead of make-or-break 2026 seasonBills' Joe Brady provides glowing endorsement of Keon Coleman ahead of make-or-break 2026 season originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.It's now or never for wide receiver Keon Coleman with the Buffalo Bills.Through two seasons, Coleman has shown glimpses of stardom, but it's mostly been tough sailing for the Florida State product. Coleman tallied just 404 yards and four touchdowns in 2025 and was even a healthy scratch in some games.2026 will be the defining year of Coleman's career, and though the jury is still out on the 2024 No. 33 overall pick, he has the full support of his head coach.Joe Brady provides glowing endorsement of ColemanWhile speaking to the media before the Bills' OTA practice on Tuesday, head coach Joe Brady had only good things to say about Coleman.Brady praised the young receiver's approach so far this offseason, and even told Coleman that he would remain on the roster with him now that he is the head coach."I made sure when I got the job he [Coleman] knew he was going to be here and be a part of our offense," Brady said via Sal Capaccio of WGR 550."Says he [Brady] loves what he's seen so far from him [Coleman] and his approach."Coleman should feel pumped up and secure knowing that Brady has his back entering 2026, but the 23-year-old still knows what is at stake this season.After practice, Coleman spoke to the media and put the pressure on himself, calling 2026 a make-or-break year for him."For me, it's make or break," Coleman said via Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN. "I know what I'm capable of, and if I fall short of that, I'm doing myself a disservice.It's clear that Coleman is motivated to get back on the field and prove he is a long-term piece for Buffalo. The former second-round pick has all the talent in the world and an excellent frame at 6-foot-4, but can he finally put it all together?0 Comments 0 Shares 56 Views 0 Reviews
