MILAN -- More than 16 years after his father scuppered Juventus title hopes, Giovanni Simeone has halted the Bianconeris charge to a sixth successive Serie A title.Simeone scored two goals to set Genoa on its way to a surprise 3-1 win over Juventus on Sunday.Three days ago my father told me that scoring goals was in a Simeones blood, the 21-year-old Simeone said. I am happy at the moment, when the coach gives a player the chance, he has to be ready.Juventus remained four points ahead of Roma and AC Milan, which won 4-1 at Empoli on Saturday.There are no excuses for how we played in the first half hour, Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said. Today it was right to get a good hiding, it will serve us well for the rest of the season.It was a far cry from Juventus midweek performance when it won 3-1 at Sevilla to secure qualification to the Champions League knockout stages.We have lost three matches, all of them after Champions League games, maybe unconsciously the players relaxed a bit, Allegri said. It shouldnt happen but it happens and we have to take the positives: Get our feet back on the ground and understand that the season is still long and nothing should be taken for granted.Current Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone fired Lazio to a 1-0 win against Juventus in April 2000, with the capital club going on to finish a point above the Bianconeri to win the title.And 6,084 days later his son Giovanni Simeone got Genoa off to the best start with his first goal in the third minute. An error from Leonardo Bonucci sparked a Genoa counterattack and, although Gianluigi Buffon made three reaction saves, he couldnt prevent Simeone tapping in from close range.Simeone doubled his tally 10 minutes later with a diving header to Darko Lazovics cross.Incredibly Juventus was 3-0 down on the half hour. A corner came to Luca Rigoni and Alex Sandro tried to keep out his volley but only succeeded in turning it into his own net.Juventus hadnt conceded three goals in the first half of a Serie A match for more than 11 years.Matters grew worse for Allegris team as Bonucci limped off with a suspected hamstring injury moments later and was replaced by Daniele Rugani. Juventus was already without its two other regular defenders, with Andrea Barzagli injured and Giorgio Chiellini only fit for a place on the bench.Gonzalo Higuain came on for Stephan Lichtsteiner in the 53rd but couldnt help Juventus turn the match around. Any hope it had of doing so diminished in the 75th when Dani Alves was stretchered off after fracturing his left leg and it was forced to play the final 15 minutes with 10 men because Allegri had used up his three substitutions.Miralem Pjanic scored a consolation for Juventus eight minutes from time, curling a free kick into the top left corner.---ROMA 3, PESCARA 2Serie A top goalscorer Edin Dzeko was on target again -- twice -- as Roma survived a late scare to move to within four points of Juventus.Dzeko appeared to have set Roma on its way to a comfortable victory with two goals in the opening 10 minutes but Ledian Memushaj pulled one back on the hour mark.Diego Perotti restored Romas two-goal advantage in the 71st with a penalty after he was needlessly brought down near the byline by Pescara defender Alessandro Crescenzi -- who is on loan from the capital club.Crescenzi made up for his error minutes later with a cross from the left which Roma defender Emerson headed away. The ball was then volleyed in by an unmarked Gianluca Caprari, who progressed through the ranks at Roma and made his Serie A debut with the capital club.The 40-year-old Francesco Totti, who is only months younger than Pescara coach Massimo Oddo, was brought on in the second half. He almost scored directly from a corner but Pescara goalkeeper Albano Bizzarri saved at the near post.---PALERMO 0, LAZIO 1Palermo fell to a club record seventh successive Serie A defeat as Lazio continued its push for a Champions League place.Sergej Milinkovic-Savic scored the only goal of the match, shortly after the half hour, tapping in after Dusan Basta pulled the ball back from the byline.Ciro Immobile had earlier hit the crossbar.Palermo defender Giancarlo Gonzalez was sent off in the final minutes for hauling down Cristiano Lombardi.Lazio remained fourth, a point behind Milan and Roma. It plays Roma next week in the capital derby.Palermo, which has lost all seven home games this season, slipped to bottom place, four points from safety.---OTHER MATCHESAtalanta remained level with Lazio after easing to a 2-0 win at Bologna.Andrea Masiello fired Atalanta in front in the 15th and Jasmin Kurtic headed in a corner for the second in the 68th.Crotone drew 1-1 against Sampdoria to move off bottom spot and Cagliari beat Udinese 2-1.Napoli hosts Sassuolo on Monday, when Fiorentina travels to Inter Milan.

MINNEAPOLIS -- The left foot is fully repaired and rehabilitated after playing through the pain last season, and Mitch Leidner has lost 20 pounds. Minnesotas fifth-year senior quarterback is primed for a strong finish.Bring on the season, and the opener against Oregon State on Thursday night.Definitely want to leave a legacy, Leidner said, adding: I know the rest of the seniors feel the same exact way.The Beavers were 2-10 last year, including 0-9 in Pac-12 play, and allowed an average of 37 points to rank 113th out of 127 FBS teams. Coach Gary Andersen overhauled the schemes on offense and defense, contributing to the growing pains.The best asset for the Beavers will be the passing game, with new quarterback Darell Garretson aided by a deep group of wide receivers. Garretson last played on Oct. 18, 2014, before a wrist injury ended his sophomore season at Utah State. That was two weeks after he engineered an upset of BYU, then ranked 18th in The Associated Press poll, on the road.Garretson completed 63 percent of his passes for Utah State. Three Beavers quarterbacks posted a collective 46.9 completion percent rate last year while Garretson sat out as a transfer.Its a good feeling to have a guy thats been in the moment, Andersen said, adding: I hope that it will be a calming feeling for some of the younger players who may be in the position to have a little more nerves than youd want them to have.Here are some key angles to know about the game:FAMILIIAR FOEMinnesota and Oregon State have played only three times in history, last in 1981. Andersen was the coach at Wisconsin for two years before taking over the Beavers last season, though, so hes well-versed in the Gophers and their style.I dont expect a whole lot of change. Tough, physical, play the game the right way. I think theyre well taught, Andersen said, adding: I dont think a lot of people on the West Coast overall have an idea of how far that programs come.STILL FOR SALEAfter an overflow sellout crrowd of 54,147 took in the 2015 lid-lifter against TCU, then the No.dddddddddddd 2 team in the AP poll, the attendance against Oregon State will likely fall well short of that. The Vikings and Twins also play at the same time, and with the state fair ongoing and several high schools holding their football openers too. Plus, Minnesota is coming off a mediocre 6-7 season.To help stem the sales slump, new athletic director Mark Coyle halted a scheduled price increase that was authorized by his predecessor.Thats a great decision, coach Tracy Claeys said. People only have so much money to spend.Claeys made hand deliveries to some season ticket holders this summer.You can try all the gimmicks you want to sell all the tickets you want, but the bottom line is youve got to win, Claeys said. The more ballgames you win, the more people come out and see you play.TOP TARGETSSeth Collins has moved from quarterback to wide receiver after declaring his intent to transfer but ultimately staying put. Jordan Villamin led the Beavers last season with 660 yards and five touchdowns receiving. Speedy senior Victor Bolden is also back.The receiving corps has to be a big part of who we are this year, Andersen said.DEJA VU FOR DAMARIUSMinnesota safety Damarius Travis will take the field for his final home opener, for a second time. He played against TCU last season but hurt his hamstring and wound up with a medical redshirt. Travis was inspired by a recent drive by the stadium.It kind of gave me chills just looking at it and thinking about playing in a game again, he said.FAB FRESHMANGophers wide receiver Tyler Johnson, a native of Minneapolis who is part of a deep class of in-state freshmen, has drawn rave reviews during camp.Tremendous hands, and he can jump and come up with the ball, Claeys said. Hell definitely be a part of what were doing this fall. ' ' '
