A ideia de realizar o treino mais cedo ocorreu justamente para privilegiar os atletas da base. A maioria deles já treinaram pelo menos uma vez com o plantel principal, sendo que alguns possuem experiência em campo, como o lateral Léo Maná, os meias Biro e Matheus Araújo, e os atacantes Wesley e Giovane. O último, inclusive, foi relacionado para a decisão do sub-20 por conta de uma necessidade, já que Felipe Augusto não se recuperou de uma lesão no ombro.

O técnico Vítor Pereira deixou o CT Joaquim Grava, onde comandou o treinamento no início do dia, e se dirigiu para a Neo Química Arena, para assistir a decisão do campeonato de base. Crias da base, mas há algum tempo integrado aos profissionais, o goleiro Matheus Donelli, e os zagueiros Raul Gustavo e Robert Renan também estiveram presentes no estádio corintiano. Recém-chegado ao Timão, o meia argentino Fausto Vera também marcou presença em Itaquera.
Na atividade, que segue a preparação do Corinthians para enfrentar o Atlético-GO nesta quarta-feira (28), o técnico Vítor Pereira comandou um trabalho de movimentação de passes e finalizações e jogadas de bolas paradas. No fim, os atletas também treinaram cobranças de faltas.
O Timão ainda treinará nas próximas segunda e terça-feira (26 e 27), antes do confronto diante do Dragão.

The inexperienced head of Ashton Turner helped guide Australia A to victory in a the first one-dayer in Mackay after Gurinder Sandhu had run through New Zealand A with a five-wicket haul.Sandhu had been on a hat-trick after claiming Dean Foxcroft and Tom Bruce in his first over then later in the innings found himself with 5 for 9 after removing top-scorer Nick Kelly.New Zealand A, who won the four-day series 2-0, could only managed 169 after being put in to bat in conditions that offered the quicks some assistance but in turn caused problems for the Australia A top order.Related

After a brisk start between Caleb Jewell and Ben McDermott, Michael Rae claimed three quick wickets and when Matt Renshaw watched a ball trickle into leg stump the home side were 68 for 4.But Turner, who was recently part of the Australia T20I squad in South Africa, brought some calmness while Ollie Davies briefly counterattacked before lofting to mid-off.Australia A captain Will Sutherland, playing as a batter only following the stress facture he picked up late last season, joined in an unbroken stand of 65 to secure victory with Turner bringing up a 57-ball half-centurySandhu had earlier made his mark as he took out the majority of the New Zealand A top order. Foxcroft was caught at point, Bruce edged behind, Leo Carter was taken at first slip and Josh Clarkson trapped in front at which point Sandhu had 4 for 1.His five-wicket haul came during a second spell when Kelly, who had tried to repair the innings with a half-century, was neatly caught by Josh Philippe.
O atacante Marcos Leonardo está, definitivamente, fazendo um grande ano. Em sua primeira temporada como titular do Peixe, o Menino da Vila está fazendo valer o número que carrega e é o grande artilheiro entre os atletas novos do Campeonato Brasileiro.

Entre todos os jogadores considerados “sub-23”, o artilheiro é quem mais marcou: foram 11 gols no torneio nacional em 28 partidas. Em toda a temporada, ele balançou as redes 19 vezes. Ele também acumulou dois passes para gols pelo Santos.
Após o confronto contra o Atlético-MG, na Vila, o garoto recebeu algumas críticas. Ainda na primeira etapa, o Peixe criou diversas chances, mas não aproveitou. O atacante Marcos Leonardo chegou a ter duas oportunidades claras, mas perdeu.
Mesmo assim, o atacante marcou de pênalti nos minutos finais. Já no duelo contra o Juventude, na Vila, Marcos Leonardo marcou um bonito gol de cobertura após receber passe de Ed Carlos. Ao final do jogador, em entrevista ao SporTV, ele comemorou.
– A gente sabia das dificuldades do jogo, ainda mais vindo de derrotas. Foi difícil pra mim, difícil pra todo mundo, mas futebol é isso. Não dá pra lamentar. Nada melhor do que um dia após o outro e hoje saímos com a vitória – disse Marcos Leonardo.
Em 2022, o atacante ainda pode cumprir mais uma meta: Marcos Leonardo só não balançou as redes contra dois clubes da Série A do Brasileirão: Palmeiras e Avaí. Contra a equipe de São Paulo, não há confrontos mais neste ano. Já no duelo contra o Leão, há oportunidade no dia 5 de novembro, na Arena Barueri.
She comfortably set a new mark for an individual score and also broke the record for sixes in an innings

Grace Harris put on a thrilling display of hitting•Getty Images
A day after a new low total was set in the WBBL, Grace Harris tore up the record books with the highest individual score in the tournament’s history with a brutal 136 not out off 59 balls against Perth Scorchers at North Sydney Oval.Harris, who was recently left out of Australia’s T20I side against West Indies, reached her third WBBL hundred from 48 balls. She also set a new record with 11 sixes, overtaking the previous mark of ten set by Ash Gardner, at the same ground, against Melbourne Stars in 2017.”I don’t know if I could top that,” she said. “I always find North Sydney to be a great ground for a batter, the wickets are quite nice and true surfaces. The boundary here, I back myself in to clear it if I give it a good swing. Might have got a bit of inspiration from Hayley Matthews recently…on what she did, she did tear our Aussie bowling attack apart.”One of those sixes came during an extraordinary passage of play where she had called for a new bat, but carried on using the one she wanted replaced then crunched the next ball for six as the handle ripped off from the blade. Having replaced the bat, for good measure she also sent the next delivery from Piepa Cleary over the ropes. “Thought it [the handle] just clicked a little bit and didn’t want to be given nicked off as the ball went past and I didn’t hit the ball,” she said. “When I faced up, I thought it’s probably hanging on, when they get that looser handle they are at their best, they are pinging. Thought I’d still hit it for six, they’d been going miles today…it went for six, so paid off for me then.”Scorchers had made early inroads when Chloe Ainsworth, who struck twice in her opening over on debut against Hobart Hurricanes, found herself on a hat-trick in the fourth over.To add to the context of Harris’ ferocious display, she had been 9 off eight balls at the end of the four-over powerplay before she took the attack to Australia team-mate Alana King with three sixes in her first two overs.She and Mignon du Preez added 91 off 47 balls for the third wicket. Harris then dominated a stand of 51 with Bess Heath as she took advantage of the favourable boundaries and some poor Scorchers bowling. Of the 37 runs added with Mikayla Hinkley, Harris contributed 32 off 10 balls.Heat’s eventual total was the second highest in WBBL history.Scorchers made a brave attempt early in their mammoth chase, led by Beth Mooney’s 25-ball fifty, and on the comparison were ahead of Heat at stages.Heat also lost Nicola Hancock from their attack after consecutive beamers against Sophie Devine, but they were able to regather themselves with Courtney Sippel coming to the fore.Devine, who came in at No. 3, couldn’t quite get going before picking out deep square leg and Sippel made it three wickets in the 10th to all-but end the contest when she claimed a return catch to remove Maddy Darke and had then had Mooney slicing to short third.To cap the records, the final overall tally of 408 runs in the match was also a new tournament record.
علق أيمن يونس، لاعب الزمالك السابق، على قرار إيقاف القيد للقلعة البيضاء، الصادر من قبل الاتحاد المصري لكرة القدم، موجهاً رسالة إلى ثنائي الفريق عبد الله السعيد وأحمد فتوح.
وأعلن اتحاد الكرة المصري، إيقاف القيد لـ3 أندية، وهي، الزمالك والإسماعيلي وفاركو، قبل انطلاق الموسم الجديد من الدوري المصري الممتاز.
وقال أيمن يونس في تصريحات عبر قناة “الزمالك”: “الشكل العام لنادي الزمالك مُبشر، لاعبين جدد ولاعبين قدماء، وكل لاعب له دوره، كل شيء كان موجودًا في معسكر الإعداد، أتمنى أن يستقر المدير الفني على التشكيل الأساسي ولا نجد أي اختلافات أو تغييرات”.

وتابع: “اتحاد الكرة هو من سيرد على شائعات إيقاف قيد الزمالك بسبب ديونه في الجبلاية، لا نريد أن نتحدث عن الشائعات لأن هناك أشخاص يريدون إسقاط جميع الأندية، هناك ناس تكره البلد ولا تريدنا أن نعيش بشكل جيد”.
وأضاف: “أنا وجهت رسالة إلى محمد شحاتة، هو قادر على أن يتحول للاعب يقود الفريق ويكون له شخصية مختلفة وتعول عليه الجماهير، وهذا أمر مهم بعد شيكابالا، طول عمر الزمالك في كل جيل سوبر ستار، شحاتة ننتظر منك الكثير، وذكاءك في التعامل مع الكرة وقدراتك في الملعب، أتمنى أن يُنهي 90 دقيقة بنفس الشخصية، نحن منتظرين أن يقود الزمالك في الموسم المُقبل”.
وأوضح: “لاعبو الزمالك الكبار محترمين ونفتخر بهم، عمر جابر مثال لكابتن الزمالك، لاعب ملتزم، وأعتقد أنه يقود غرفة الملابس بشكل محترم وراق، وعليه دور كبير كقائد للفريق”.
وأكد: “لا بد أن نعترف أن هذه السنة خطيرة ومهمة، والجماهير لن تقبل أنصاف الحلول، نريد أن ننافس بقوة على المركز الأول، وهذا يتطلب هدوءًا ولا نتوتر من الشائعات، والقطاع الإداري عليه دور كبير جدًا أكثر من القطاع الفني، عليهم الحفاظ على الهدوء طوال الوقت”.
وأشار: “أريد أنه أوجه رسالة إلى فتوح، أنت مننا وتربيت وسطنا، وأنا أول واحد عملت لك عقد غير حياتك، ننتظر منك الكثير من الالتزام والانضباط، هو أحد كباتن الزمالك، ومن المفترض أنه سفير للنادي، أتمنى أن يستعيد ثقة الجماهير والجهاز الفني واللاعبين”.
وأكمل: “عبد الله السعيد لاعب يحبنا وأراد أن يختتم مسيرته بقميص الزمالك، هو لاعب محترم وقدوة وأتمنى له التوفيق ويقدم موسمًا هدية للجماهير، وأتمنى أن يرد حب جماهير الزمالك”.
وأتم: “سأقوم بعمل لجنة لاختيار رموز لنادي الزمالك بمعايير معينة، سنتكفل بسفرهم وتأهيلهم ليكونوا كوادر فنية وإدارية، شريطة أن يكون النجم لعب ليس أقل من 5 سنوات في الزمالك وذو خلق ويكون لاعبًا دوليًا، أنا عرضت الأمر على محمد عبد الشافي لكن للأسف هو قرر أن يخوض طريق غريب بعيد تمامًا عن كرة القدم، وشيكابالا، ولكنه أيضًا قرر خوض الطريق الإعلامي”.
Após cumprir dois jogos de suspensão, Raniel voltou a ser relacionado peloVasco. O atacante está em Itu concentrado com o restante do elenco para a decisão contra o Ituano, domingo, às 18h30, no Novelli Júnior. Artilheiro do time na temporada com 16 gols, o jogador retorna em um momento importante, crítico e decisivo, circunstâncias que o acompanham desde que chegou ao clube.

Contratado com a missão de substituir Germán Cano, Raniel começou a sua trajetória no Vasco cercado por desconfiança, mas marcou gols nos primeiro três jogos da temporada, que amenizaram a pressão. O atacante não conseguiu manter a média, mas seguiu balançando a rede e garantindo pontos importantes para a equipe, principalmente no início da Série B, quando fez os primeiros três gols do time nos empates com Vila Nova e CRB, ambos por 1 a 1, e na vitória sobre a Ponte Preta, por 1 a 0.
A partir de então Raniel amargou um jejum de sete jogos sem marcar, o que fez o atacante perder a condição de titular e cair em desgraça com o torcedor. Mesmo pressionado pelas críticas, o atacante seguiu fazendo gols importantes, como nas vitórias sobre Londrina e Criciúma, e nos empate com Ituano e Sport, o mais emblemático de todos, quando marcou de pênalti, mostrando uma frieza que impressionou pelo momento importante, crítico e decisivo.
Importante e na média com os demais
É verdade que Raniel falhou em diversos momentos, como na derrota para a Ponte Preta, por 3 a 1, e no empate com o Londrina, em 1 a 1. Em ambos os jogos o atacante desperdiçou oportunidades na cara do goleiro que contribuíram para os resultados negativos. No entanto, comparado com outras edições de Série B, o atacante está na média de outros jogadores da sua posição.
Raniel soma 10 gols, um a menos do que fez Germán Cano na Série B do ano passado, mesmo jogando seis rodadas a menos que o argentino. Em 2016, Nenê foi o artilheiro do Vasco na competição, com 13 gols, mas Thalles e Ederson, os centroavantes da equipe, marcaram 7 vezes.
Já em 2014, Douglas foi o artilheiro do Vasco na Série B, com 10 gols, mas o camisa 10 era o meia do time. Os atacantes eram Kléber Gladiador (5 gols), Thalles e Edmilson (3 gols), que balançaram a rede menos que Raniel. A única exceção foi em 2009, quando o Cruz-Maltino foi campeão e Élton foi o goleador máximo da competição, com 17 gols.
Sudharsan, Rahul hit fifties each but South Africa pace unit expose India’s lack of depth on seam-friendly Gqeberha

Nandre Burger led South Africa’s pace attack with three wickets•Associated Press
South Africa levelled the ODI series by bowling India out for 211 in the surprisingly seam-friendly conditions of the usually slow and low St George’s Park. It came as no surprise to South Africa, though, who added two frontline quicks to their XI and decided to bowl first on a fresh pitch with the bowling wind blowing.Left-arm quick Nandre Burger, who seems to have it all in height, pace and movement, led the attack with three wickets either side of a nosebleed-forced absence from the field. The conditions didn’t quite ease out, but South Africa had the advantage of knowing they didn’t need to be urgent with their scoring and also enjoyed a significant amount of luck in the early goings, which might seem to be at odds with Tony de Zorzi and Reeza Hendricks putting on the biggest opening stand in Gqeberha to set up the comfortable win. De Zorzi went on to convert his maiden half-century into a century.The win, though, was set up by the fast bowlers, two of whom didn’t even play the last match. One of them – Beuran Hendricks – flew in from Cape Town earlier in the morning after Ottniel Baartman and Andile Phehlukwayo were ruled out with injury. Aiden Markram also left out Tabraiz Shami’s left-arm spin for Lizaad Williams. The three specialist quicks bowled 28.2 overs between them for six wickets and 113 runs.After half-centuries from Sai Sudharsan – his second in his first two ODIs – and captain KL Rahul, the lack of depth in India’s batting was exposed when they looked to score quick runs and lost wickets to leave Axar Patel with four tailenders over the last 13.2 overs. The last four wickets could add only 42.Burger and Williams made good use of the Easterly and the pitch with seam movement and also inconsistent bounce. In comparison with Johannesburg, the ball swung much less – 0.6 degrees on an average in the first 10 to 1.3 degrees at Wanderers – but there was appreciable seam movement available, which made batting difficult. If anything, the slightly older ball seemed to be moving more off the deck as it did in Beuran’ spell as the first-change bowler.Burger corrected his length beautifully after being driven for four first ball, trapping Ruturaj Gaikwad lbw immediately. Tilak Varma’s stay at No. 3 was a troubled one, but was part of a 42-run second-wicket stand. Burger had to go off the field because of a nosebleed after three overs, but Beuran and Williams remained just as challenging. When Burger came back, his extra pace proved to be decisive as he got Varma on the hook for 10 off 30 balls.Sudharsan, who had been playing the ball late and not been missing out on any half-volleys, began to be troubled now as B Hendricks found a good length and the ball seamed either way. India were 54 for 2 in 15 overs when South Africa went to the second string of bowlers. Sudharsan slog-swept Keshav Maharaj for a six, Rahul pulled Wiaan Mulder for successive fours, and 37 came off seven overs before Markram went back to Williams.Sai Sudharsan and KL Rahul score fifties each but it wasn’t enough for a win•AFP/Getty Images
In the third over of his second spell, Williams produced an unplayable delivery that kicked off just short of a length and took Sudharsan’s glove to dismiss him for 62 off 83. At 113 for 3 in the 27th over, India still needed one more partnership before they could think of accelerating but Sanju Samson played Beuran on after looking good once again.Despite having lost four wickets, Rahul and debutant Rinku Singh looked to attack before the 40th over, which got them 31 runs in 22 balls, but ended in Rahul cutting Burger straight to backward point for 56 off 64. This is when Maharaj came into his own, slowing the ball down and using the drift from the wind to have Rinku stumped and Kuldeep Yadav caught on the sweep. This was a crucial helping hand just before the death overs.A couple of connected slogs from Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan took India past 200 but they batted only 46.2 overs despite going into the last 20 overs with seven wickets in hand.Arshdeep was much more impressive with the ball, getting consistent swing and seam, often proving to be too good to take the edge. Reeza, who had spent the first overs of the last two international unable to lay bat on ball, took first strike again and found things slightly easier. Only slightly. He edged Mukesh to second slip in the fifth over, but Gaikwad dropped a second catch there in two matches.Reeza was in control of just 22 of the first 35 balls he faced, de Zorzi 15 of the first 31 he played. However, de Zorzi was quick to punish any error in length, keeping the run-rate around four. This absorbed the entirety of the highly testing spell of 5-0-14-0 from Arshdeep and Mukesh’s 4-0-12-0. At this point, spin came on at one end, and at the other, Avesh began to bowl a touch too short.Like expert batters do, the South Africa openers now filled their boots, first by slowly working around singles and then targeting Kuldeep and Avesh. De Zorzi swept Kuldeep for four sixes, three of them slogs and only one of them off a wrong’un, which suggests little help for the spinners, which makes Maharaj’s contribution earlier in the day significant.When Mukesh and Arshdeep came back for their second spells, they still moved the ball around, they still troubled the batters, but by then, South Africa had gone past 100. The floodlights had barely come on by then.Reeza reaped the rewards for hanging in there, getting to a fifty, before he hooked Arshdeep straight to long leg, having added 130 for the first wicket. India had no option but to over-attack now, and both de Zorzi and Rassie van der Dussen cashed in. De Zorzi was there at the end to hit the winning six with 45 balls remaining and eight wickets in hand.

England batter “in a better place” after overcoming difficult Ashes campaign

Sophia Dunkley feels she has a “new lease of life” after break•ECB via Getty Images
It was only months ago that Sophia Dunkley was all set to lead an England shake-up of a hierarchy that, as far as they were concerned, had been topped by Australia for too long. And they came close in a drawn series that saw Australia retain the Ashes, albeit not entirely convincingly.Dunkley didn’t play as big a role in that campaign as planned, however, and that took its toll. It is only now, after resting for the latter part of the home international summer and finding some late form in the WBBL, that Dunkley is back, ready to pull on her England shirt again feeling good about her game.”On the whole, I’m quite disappointed with how I performed over the summer,” Dunkley told ESPNcricinfo ahead of England’s T20I and Test tour of India. “The Ashes was an amazing series, pretty intense, and every game came down to the wire but I was definitely disappointed with how I performed. I wanted to contribute to the team and help a team effort, and it felt like it wasn’t quite there for me.”Related

After scores of 9 and 16 in the Test, won by Australia, Dunkley scored a half-century in a losing cause during the first T20I. She then contributed to key stands in England’s two subsequent victories, but was very much second fiddle to opening partner Danni Wyatt. Opening alongside Tammy Beaumont for the ODIs, however, Dunkley managed scores of just 8, 13 and 2 as England claimed that leg, also 2-1. A home Ashes series that drew unprecedented public interest brought with it new challenges in the form of increased scrutiny and Dunkley took some time out, missing the first two matches of the Women’s Hundred and, later, both white-ball series against Sri Lanka.”Missing the Sri Lanka series was a discussion that I had with the coaching staff and especially with the head coach and it was about resting really,” Dunkley said.”It was a good time to have a rest and step away and do things that are important to me, see my friends and family. We’ve got an absolutely massive year in international cricket coming up. So I was very grateful that I’ve got a brilliant team of coaches who really support me and gave me that time, and I’m going into the India series feeling pretty refreshed and excited. I feel I’ve got a new lease of life after having that time away, which is great.”If anything, the spotlight looks set to intensify next year, with some 50,000 advance ticket sales already for England Women’s home international season, featuring Pakistan and New Zealand. That is already up 30% on the same time last year, with the Women’s Ashes not hitting the 50,000-mark until late January of this year. But Dunkley feels better equipped to deal with another intense home summer this time.”You get DMs and comments all the time of opinions of people and it’s just how the game is, I guess,” she said. “It is hard sometimes to ignore it, but at the same time it is part of the game, being more in the spotlight, it’s just one of those things where you’ve got to accept that it’s going to happen. For me, it was just the intensity of the summer – it was a massive series, it was amazing. We got a lot of support, which was brilliant, and it was pretty emotional at times to feel the country as behind us as it was.”I think sometimes, the way sport goes, you’re going to get negative comments as well. It’s just one of those things, but I think it’s good to have that experience because you go through that and you come out stronger the other side. It’s put me in a better place in a weird way.”Dunkley went on to score 262 runs in the Hundred at 37.42, with a strike-rate of 138.62, and overcame a slow start to the WBBL season to post a 48-ball 73 for Melbourne Stars against Perth Scorchers. Shortly before heading to Australia, she was among a group of England players who travelled to India for a training camp ahead of the current tour, which starts with the first of three T20Is on Wednesday, followed by a four-day Test.Dunkley won’t be returning to India next year for the second edition of the WPL, though. Having been released by Gujarat Giants, she opted not to enter the auction, which will be held on December 9, the same day England and India play their second T20I.”It was a decision that I debated for quite a while,” Dunkley said. “I absolutely loved my time at the WPL last year and I had an amazing time at Gujarat Giants and a lot of special memories there and I think the WPL’s an incredible competition. I’d 100 percent love to go back and play again if I get another opportunity in the future. Playing cricket in India is amazing. I just think to me this year we’ve got a massive international year and, mentally and physically, to be in the best place for that I think to not go into the auction is the best decision for me.”To work on my game and to be in the best position to play for England is my priority really. It wasn’t an easy decision at all. It took a lot of time and a lot of discussions. Going back into the auction, there’s no guarantee that you’ll get picked up anyway, but in the case that I did, it was just weighing up the different decisions I had to make. The way the year’s panned out, it makes it tricky as it’s so busy and sometimes you’ve got to make those decisions.”Jon Lewis, England Women’s head coach, organised the India training camp after the Sri Lanka series exposed his side’s weaknesses facing spin bowling. With a T20I World Cup in Bangladesh next year followed by the ODI version in India in 2025, it is an area he wants to improve and this bilateral series will be the first test of any inroads made.For Dunkley, she has made some technical changes which she hopes will bring dividends. Her grip, notable for being unconventionally split, has opened up more, offering her bat a clearer back path and, in turn, smoother stroke-making.”I struggled a little bit with my grip throughout the summer, which I felt limited me,” she said. “I’ve done a lot of work on that and it feels in a good place and I’m going to continue working on it the next few months or so. I’m seeing some really good signs at training and in the Big Bash, when I got going, it felt a lot better.”
O Corinthians trouxe a público que o futuro do técnico Vítor Pereira em 2023 só será definido e revelado após o fim do Campeonato Brasileiro. O comunicado ocorreu após a derrota corintiana para o Fluminense, na noite da última quarta-feira (26). Depois do jogo, o treinador do Timão estava bastante exaltado e se incomodou com uma pergunta que tocou na sua vida pessoal.

Vítor já deixou claro em outras circunstâncias que quer permanecer no Time do Povo, mas que o empecilho para que isso ocorra são algumas questões particulares, principalmente envolvendo a sua sogra, que tem um problema de saúde e não pode ser deslocada de Portugal.
Ao tentar saber se a esposa de Vítor Pereira se opôs ao desejo do marido de ficar no Corinthians, o repórter Marco Bello, da rádio Transamérica, perguntou ao técnico corintiano sobre quem manda na casa do profissional, em tempo que Vítor respondeu:
– O meu amigo, como eu tenho mais educação que o senhor, não vou lhe responder. Os meus pais me deram educação e eu não vou responder. Você foi mau educado, está se metendo em um assunto que não tem a ver com o futebol. Você foi mau educado, por isso eu não te respondo nenhuma palavra. O respeito que você teve por mim, é o respeito que eu tenho pelo senhor – disse o comandante corintiano.

Vítor, que já se mostrava tenso desde o início da entrevista coletiva, passou a se mostrar ainda mais irritado, inclusive dando bronca aos profissionais de imprensa que estavam falando enquanto o treinador dava a entrevista.
Membros da diretoria corintiana que estavam presentes na sala de imprensa também não gostaram da pergunta e do tom utilizado pelo jornalista.
Em um perfil nas redes sociais, Marco Bello reconheceu que errou na forma em que levou o questionamento ao VP.
– Amigos, fiz uma reflexão assim que cheguei em casa e quero dividir com vocês: fui muito mal na minha pergunta ao técnico Vitor Pereira do Corinthians. Era pra ter sido uma pergunta descontraída, mas não saiu assim e acabou soando ofensiva. Quero aqui pedir desculpas ao Vitor e,quando puder encontrá-lo, o farei novamente. Espero que entendam… ou pelo menos compreendam meu arrependimento. Abraços a todos e fiquem em paz. – escreveu o jornalista em sua conta no Twitter.
Até o fim do Campeonato Brasileiro, o Corinthians tem mais quatro partidas e sonha com a classificação direta à fase de grupos da Libertadores, já que o desejo principal do clube não foi conquistado, que era o título da Copa do Brasil. Porém, os corintianos perderam do Flamengo, na última quarta-feira (19) e ficaram com o vice do torneio mata-mata.
