data-mm-id=”_dl24ex830″>The Pittsburgh Steelers and Arizona Cardinals played a never-ending game this afternoon as inclement weather forced two separate delays. This meant everybody's enthusiasm was waning by the fourth quarter, which is normally true of any 2023 Steelers game but was especially the case on Sunday. That did not stop Diontae Johnson from embarrassing himself on the field again. Down 24-3 after many helpless offensive drives and missing Kenny Pickett, Pittsburgh actually managed to get down the field and score a touchdown with less than five minutes left in the game. Mitchell Trubisky found Diontae Johnson for the score. Johnson's stunning inability to score touchdowns has been a running storyline for two seasons now so it probably shouldn't have surprised anybody that Johnson was happy to celebrate the score, despite the circumstances. Perhaps too happy. no fucking shot he's doing this rn. go to the bench blud it's over https://t.co/UGCaD5DKZf pic.twitter.com/nEvvcAkPCT— alex (@highlightheaven) December 3, 2023This is a tough look for anybody but Johnson has been slammed in recent weeks because it sure looks like he has no interest in playing football unless the ball is coming his way. There are pretty long lowlight compilations of the wideout completely mailing it in this year. To give that little effort and then dance after scoring late in a blowout loss is some Diva Wide Receiver stuff from the mid-aughts. Next thing you know Johnson is going to be doing pushups in his driveway. He got the dance in. That's all that matters to him, it seems.

Stephan El Shaarawy ended a 622-day goal drought to help 10-man Milan claim a 2-2 draw at Sampdoria on Saturday.
Back in the starting line up in place of Fernando Torres, El Shaarawy put Filippo Inzaghi s side ahead early on at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, cutting in on his right foot to curl a sublime shot into the bottom-right corner of Sergio Roberto s goal and in doing so finding the net for the first time since February 2013.
But high-flying Sampdoria were not to be deterred and after having two penalty appeals waved away by the officials, they replied through Stefano Okaka.
He latched onto Manolo Gabbiadini s cross to tuck home his second goal of the season as the first half drew to a close.
And the hosts took the initiative soon after the interval, w…
Teo Gutierrez s late header sealed an impressive Colombia comeback as they came from a goal down to beat United States 2-1 on Friday.
Colombia had not lost to a team other than Brazil since September 2013, but Jozy Altidore s early penalty looked to have sent Jurgen Klinsmann s side on their way to what would have been an impressive victory at Craven Cottage.
However, second-half efforts from Carlos Bacca and Gutierrez wrapped up a third straight win for the South Americans, having applied plenty of pressure after the break.
Altidore s 25th international goal from the spot put USA in front after just 10 minutes, before Colombia were denied what they felt should have been a penalty of their own just before the break, when Bacca’s effort looked to strike Jermaine…
Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova left the intensive care unit of the Vall d Hebron hospital in Barcelona on Friday morning.
The 44-year-old underwent surgery on Thursday after he suffered a relapse of the tumour in his mouth which had kept him sidelined for a large part of the 2011-12 campaign.
The operation went according to plan, and Vilanova has now been moved to a regular unit for the next three to four days.
Vilanova will start with chemotherapy and radiation treatment that is scheduled to last about six weeks in the upcoming days.

Antoine Griezmann will not replace Philippe Coutinho at Barcelona at the end of the season, according to the Brazilian s agent.
Despite an encouraging start to life at Barca, Coutinho has failed to recapture the form he showed at Liverpool before his €160million switch in January 2018.

Netherlands manager Bert van Marwijk was left to reflect on a tournament of unfulfilled promise as his side crashed out of Euro 2012.
The Dutch, who came into the tournament regarded as one of the favourites, finished bottom of Group B after falling to Portugal 2-1 in their final group game.
Despite losing to both Denmark and Germany, the Netherlands went into their final encounter with Portugal knowing a win would give them a fighting chance of qualification.
Yet two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo soon dashed any hopes van Marwijk s men had of reaching the quarter finals.
I can t deny that this is a major deception for us, Van Marwijk told NOS.
In all the three games we started well, but we couldn t hold it, just like today. We came up front w…
Schalke general manager Horst Heldt is hopeful star striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar will sign a new contract with the club.
The Netherlands international only has one year to run on his existing deal with the Bundesliga side and has been linked with a number of top European clubs in recent months, including Manchester United.
However, Heldt is optimistic Schalke will not be forced to cash in on their most prized asset before the start of the new season.
He knows we want to extend his contract and I can very well imagine that happening, the former Germany international told RevierSport.
We already spoke a lot with him about it ahead of the European Championship. The talks with him and his management were very clear, so I see no need to push things now.
