AC Milan legend Franco Baresi is confident the current group of players will hold their nerve to win the Serie A title for the first time in 11 years.

With two games to go Milan are two points clear of their city rivals Inter, who won the Coppa Italia on Wednesday, to add to the Super Cup trophy they lifted in January.

Milan could win the title on Sunday if they beat Atalanta and Inter drop points against Cagliari.

"I think the team has shown that they know how to manage the situation, the tension and the responsibility," Baresi told BBC Sport.

"There is conviction, there is trust, there is awareness that we can really reach what was until a few months ago an unexpected objective. It would be a joy for everyone. "

Stefano Piloi's Milan side have not lost in the league since 17 January, a run of 14 matches.

Baresi won six Serie A titles during his 20-year spell at the club, retiring his number six shirt when he played his final game in 1997.

The 2000 United States presidential election in Tennessee took place on November 7, 2000, and was part of the 2000 United States presidential election. Voters chose 11 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

Tennessee was won by Governor George W. Bush by a 3.87% margin of victory, despite having voted for President Bill Clinton in 1992 and 1996 and being the home state of Vice President Al Gore. If Gore had carried his home state, he, instead of Bush, would have been elected president.

Laura Robson - the British player who won junior Wimbledon at 14 and an Olympic silver medal at 18 - has confirmed her retirement from tennis.

The 28-year-old rose to 27 in the world rankings, and reached the fourth round at Wimbledon and the US Open.

But then injury intervened - she had wrist surgery in 2014, and in recent years has had three hip operations.

"I went through every possibility of rehab and of surgery," Robson told BBC Sport.

"I had another hip surgery and probably did the best rehab block of my life - I went to all the best specialists and had some incredible people that I was working with just to get me back on court - and then the second time I hit, I just knew.

"It feels weird to say out loud, but I'm done, I'm retired.

"I've sort of known that for a while because of what I was told by the doctors last year, but I think it just took me so long to say it to myself, which is why it took me so long to say it officially."

Robson was named WTA Newcomer of the Year in 2012 as she beat Grand Slam champions Kim Clijsters and Li Na in a run to the fourth round of the US Open.

She also reached her only WTA final in Guangzhou that September (she was the first Briton to play in a WTA final for 22 years), and in early August partnered Andy Murray to a silver medal in the mixed doubles of the London Olympics. It was so nearly gold, but Victoria Azarenka and Max Myrni won the deciding tie-break 10-8 on Wimbledon's Centre Court.

Rangers might be "one game away from making history", but emotions are under control for Wednesday's Europa League final, says midfielder Aaron Ramsey.

Speaking as the squad left for the game in Seville against Eintracht Frankfurt, the Wales player, 31, said: "There's a lot of energy around the place.

"Just looking forward to it, you're one game away from making history.

"It's a great group, a very level-headed squad, so there are no issues about anybody getting carried away."

The former Arsenal playmaker has been in and out of the team because of injury since joining on loan from Juventus at the end of January.

He missed both legs of the semi-final against RB Leipzig because of a hamstring problem but started two of Rangers' final three league matches.
