MatériaMais Notícias

O Corinthians encarou a sexta eliminação em sua Arena após a derrota nos pênaltis para o Internacional, na quarta fase da Copa do Brasil. O baque, porém, não afetar o temporada segundo os jogadores da equipe.

Jô e Balbuena foram dois dos atletas corintianos que bateram na tecla de erguer a cabeça e não deixar que o revés atrapalhe o trabalho que vem sendo desenvolvido desde o início do ano.

O centroavante, que converteu sua penalidade, foi contundente em suas palavras na saída de campo. Pediu reação do grupo e foco no clássico contra o São Paulo, domingo, valendo vaga na final do Campeonato Paulista.

– Não podemos achar que o ano já acabou. Estamos tristes pela eliminação, mas o Corinthians faz bom trabalho, vem crescendo, temos uma semifinal pela frente. A gente correu e batalhou, mas as coisas aconteceram de um jeito que a gente não queria. Tem que erguer a cabeça. O grupo tem jogadores experientes que vão passar tranquilidade no domingo – declarou Jô.

Já o zagueiro paraguaio acredita que o time não merecia ter sido eliminado pela atuação que teve na Arena. Ele também reforçou o discurso do companheiro sobre olhar para frente.

– É difícil falar agora que acabou o que poderia fazer, o que teria acontecido… A gente está fora, mas pelo que fizemos no jogo não merecemos ser eliminados. Infelizmente, sabemos que no futebol não é só merecimento. Fazer o quê? O grupo está unido nas vitórias e nas derrotas, agora é pensar em domingo – disse Balbuena.

Fora da Copa do Brasil, o Timão ainda está vivo na Copa Sul-Americana, no Paulistão e ainda disputará o Campeonato Brasileiro. Para chegar à final do Estadual o Alvinegro pode até perder por um gol de diferença do São Paulo, na Arena, após vitória por 2 a 0 no Morumbi.

بايرن ميونخ يتمسك بضم ماني ويجهز عرضًا ثانيًا لـ ليفربول

كشفت تقارير صحفية ألمانية أن نادي بايرن ميونخ يجهز عرضًا ثانيًا للظفر بخدمات النجم ساديو ماني من صفوف ليفربول، بعد رفض العرض الأول أمس.

وكان بايرن ميونخ قد قدم عرضًا أوليًا للظفر بخدمات اللاعب السنغالي، مقابل 21 مليون جنيه إسترليني، إلى جانب مبلغ إضافي كمكافآت بقيمة 4 ملايين جنيه إسترليني.

وأكدت تقارير صحفية أمس أن نادي ليفربول لم يوافق على عرض بايرن ميونخ المذكور، بسبب انخفاض القيمة المالية.

وذكرت صحيفة “ميرور” الإنجليزية، نقلًا عن “Sport 1” الألمانية، أن بايرن ميونخ ينوي تقديم عرضًا ثانيًا لليفربول من أجل حسم صفقة ساديو ماني.

وأوضحت أن العرض الثاني سيكون 30 مليون جنيه إسترليني كمبلغ ثابت، إلى جانب 4.2 مليون جنيه إسترليني في شكل مكافآت محتملة.

يُزعم أنه على الرغم من الرفض الأولي، يتوقع الطرفان التوصل إلى اتفاق وهناك آمال كبيرة لدى بايرن في أن يفي عرضهم الثاني بمطالب ليفربول.

Guernsey granted Associate status

Guernsey have become the 34th country to be granted Associate membership of the ICC after their application was unanimously approved during the annual conference in Dubai

Cricinfo staff04-Jul-2008Guernsey have become the 34th country to be granted Associate membership of the ICC after their application was unanimously approved during the annual conference in Dubai.Vanuatu had also applied but they failed to meet the necessary playing requirements as they had not beaten two existing Associates in competition. Mozambique withdrew their application.A further three countries from the Europe region – Bulgaria, Estonia and Turkey – were granted Affiliate status, taking the ICC’s total member count to 104.The decision to promote Guernsey to Associate status comes only three years after they were granted Affiliate membership. One senior ICC member praised their facilities as being among the best of any Associate, with a vibrant club and coaching structure in place.In 2007 Guernsey won the ICC European Under-15 Division 2 Championship beating nine other European Associate and Affiliate members, and finished second and third in the European U-19 Division 2 and U-23 Division 2 respectively.Commenting on the news, Richard Holdsworth, the ICC’s regional development manager, said: “Cricket is a well established sport in Guernsey and it is fitting that after only three years of ICC Affiliate membership that the country has been promoted to an Associate member. The infrastructure on the island has developed well in recent years with good support of local sponsors and government organisations. Their excellent facilities including grass pitches and a new indoor cricket centre will help them to further develop at International level.”

Wainman: Firpo and Harrison will be frightening!

Just Joe football show host Joe Wainman believes that having Junior Firpo and Jack Harrison down the left-side is going to be frightening!

Harrison made his move to Elland Road permanent this summer after previous loan spells with Leeds and the Whites also completed the signing of left-back Junior Firpo from FC Barcelona.

Firpo featured 18 times for Barcelona in all competitions last season, whilst Harrison featured in 38 matches for Leeds in all competitions.

The duo will be frightening according Wainman, who told Football FanCast: “Junior Firpo is really exciting, I know it didn’t work out for him at Barcelona but when you’ve got Jordi Alba ahead of you it’s always going to be tough.

“We’ve paid next to nothing for him in terms of what his projections could be and look, once Bielsa has worked his magic, I think Junior Firpo from that left-back position, him and Jack Harrison this season it’ll be frightening, it’s going to be frightening!

“I see a lot of goals coming from that left hand side and I think Junior Firpo will get involved and he’ll get quite a lot of assists as well.”

Marcelo Bielsa has looked to strengthen his Leeds side this summer and provide competition for places in his starting XI, signing both Lewis Bate and Kristoffer Klaesson alongside Junior Firpo and Jack Harrison.

The White enjoyed a successful first season back in the Premier League finishing ninth on 59 points and ended the season in good form winning their last four matches, conceding just two goals in the process.

Marcelo Bielsa will be hoping to take that form into the new season and hit the ground running early and look to improve on last points tally and final position.

Barrios divide Hat-Trick com colegas gremistas: 'Grupo está muito forte'

MatériaMais Notícias

Após os três gols na vitória do Grêmio de 4 a 1 sobre o Guaraní-PAR, pela quarta rodada da Libertadores, o atacante Lucas Barrios fez questão de dividir o mérito com os companheiros do seu time:

-Sempre prometi trabalho, naturalmente você consegue os gols. Não prometo gols, só trabalho. Fico contente de fazer os gols, ajudar o time, neste momento que a gente precisava de uma boa vitória. Os gols não são só meus, são dos meus companheiros – comentou o argentino naturalizado paraguaio, que levou a bola do jogo para casa e ainda criou a jogada do pênalti desperdiçado por Luan no primeiro tempo.

Ele também comentou sobre as cobranças em torno de mais uma eliminação no Campeonato Gaúcho. O título do Estadual não vem desde 2010, quando venceu o Internacional por 2 e 1 a 0 nas finais. Aos seus olhos, o elenco tem sim que melhorar.

– Sempre temos que melhorar, não conseguimos um lugar na final do Gauchão no últimos domingo. Mesmo com as críticas, o que é normal, o grupo está muito forte. Todos vão para o mesmo caminho. Isso é importante. Manter o grupo forte. Os momento ruins virão, mas quando estamos fortes assim, é difícil cairmos. Todos estão unidos – opinou o camisa 18.

Por fim, ele falou da cobrança que vinha sofrendo pela ausência de gols. Até então ele tinha três gols em sete jogos.

– A cobrança sempre existe para os atacantes. Às vezes, as coisas acontecem e em outras não. Temos que seguir trabalhando, melhorar nos treinos e nunca descer os braços. Prometo trabalho, aí as coisas acontecem naturalmente. Hoje aproveitei minhas chances e o time ganhou. É importante seguir neste caminho – disse.

شركة مراهنات تسخر من كلوب بعد صفقة نونيز: لا يزال مدربًا لـ ليفربول

سخرت شركة المراهنات الآيرلندية، بادي باور، من المدرب الألماني يورجن كلوب، المدير الفني لنادي ليفربول، بسبب تصريحات سابقة لمدرب الريدز بشأن إنفاق مانشستر يونايتد 100 مليون جنيه إسترليني للتعاقد مع بوجبا من يوفنتوس.

مانشستر يونايتد في 2016 تعاقد مع بوجبا من يوفنتوس، مقابل 100 مليون إسترليني، وحينها كلوب عبر عن رأيه وانتقد فكرة دفع هذا المبلغ الضخم في لاعب واحد فقط.

وقال كلوب حينها: “إذا أحضرت لاعبًا واحدًا مقابل 100 مليون جنيه إسترليني، وأصيب، فسيكون الأمر مثل المدخنة”.

وأضاف: ” عندما تكون هذه هي الكرة، لن أكون مدربًا ثانية، لأن هذه رياضة جماعية، هذا ما يعيه كل شخص في كرة القدم، أنت دائمًا ما تريد الأفضل، لكن بناء المجموعة ضروري حتى تنجح”.

وأكمل: “الأندية الأخرى تستطيع دفع أموال طائلة من أجل جلب أفضل اللاعبين، أنا أريد أن أفعل ذلك أيضًا ولكن بطريقة مختلفة، إذا كان بيدي أن أنفق مبالغ كبيرة سأقوم بتكوين مجموعة، فريق حقيقي.. مثلما فعل برشلونة”.

وفي عام 2019، اعترف كلوب بأنه أخطأ في تقدير مدى سرعة زيادة رسوم الانتقالات للاعبين، وذكر أن ليفربول يجب أن “ينفق الأموال” لمواكبة المنافسين ذوي الإنفاق الكبير والتنافس معهم.

ولكن بعد إعلان بنفيكا انتقال نونيز إلى ليفربول مقابل 100 مليون جنيه إسترليني، قامت الشركة بالسخرية من كلوب.

وغرد الحساب الرسمي لـ”بادي باور”، عبر منصة التواصل الاجتماعي “تويتر”: “عاجل.. يورجن كلوب لا يزال مدربًا رغم إنفاق 85 مليون جنيه إسترليني”.

Gibbs could play for Titans

Herschelle Gibbs, the South Africa and Cape Cobras batsman, could turn out for the Titans in the Champions Twenty20 League tournament

Herschelle Gibbs, the South Africa and Cape Cobras batsman, could turn out for the Titans in the Champions Twenty20 League tournament. Gibbs plays for the Cape Town-based Cobras, but might be available for the Titans, the franchise in Pretoria, under a plan proposed by Norman Arendse, chief executive of Cricket South Africa (CSA).Arendse said players from other franchises might be included in the franchises representing South Africa, Supersport reported, as quite a few regulars from South Africa’s Test squad would miss the league due to conflicting schedules. The tournament was scheduled to be held between September 29 and October 8, but its proximity to the Champions Trophy in Pakistan had prompted the ICC to ask the founding boards – CSA, BCCI and Cricket Australia – to reconsider the dates.It’s likely the league will now take place in December, but that could result in South Africa’s players missing out. South Africa are to tour Australia later this year, and their first game against Western Australia, begins on December 6.By virtue of being the finalists in th Africa’s domestic Pro20 competition, the Titans and Dolphins, from KwaZulu-Natal, have qualified for the Twenty20 league, joining Rajastan Royals and Chennai Super Kings from India, Western Australia and Victoria from Australia, Middlesex from England and the Sialkot Stallions from Pakistan. However, players such as AB de Villiers, Andre Nel, Dale Steyn, Morne Morkel and Paul Harris from the Titans, and the Dolphins’ Hashim Amla, may not be available for their franchises. Arendse indicated Gibbs, not part of South Africa’s Test squad currently, could replace de Villiers.Gibbs, who joined Glamorgan for the Twenty20 Cup, had a successful stint for the county, scoring 281 runs in six innings, with a highest of 98. However, they failed to make it past the quarter-finals. Gibbs, though, failed to impress in the Pro20 competition and Indian Premier League earlier in the year. He scored 103 runs in six matches for the Cape Cobras, and was one of the disappointments of the IPL, managing just 167 in nine matches for the bottom-finishers Deccan Chargers.

Man City linked with Kyle Hudlin

Premier League champions Manchester City have been linked with a shock summer move for rumoured Sheffield Wednesday transfer target Kyle Hudlin.

The Lowdown: Owls linked with Hudlin move

The Owls have had a busy summer in the transfer window, bringing in 13 new players in order to aid their League One promotion bid.

One player who hasn’t joined yet but has been linked with a move to Hillsborough in recent months is Hudlin, who is a remarkable 6 foot 9 tall and has scored 10 goals in 36 appearances for National League side Solihull Moors.

The Latest: City emerge as shock suitors

A surprise update has now emerged, with The Athletic claiming that Manchester City are considering signing the striker, who has been reported as ‘the tallest outfield professional player in Britain’.

The Premier League giants have sent representatives to watch Hudlin in action, with Middlesbrough and Cardiff City also mentioned as possible suitors.

The Verdict: Surely not?

It remains to be seen whether Wednesday’s prior interest in Hudlin remains strong, but it would be a huge shock if he went to Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola’s side are known for their huge spending and are keen on signing Harry Kane from Tottenham, who as England captain and a renowned Premier League goalscorer is a few levels above Hudlin, with the greatest of respect to the Solihull Moors marksman.

At 21, he does represent an exciting young prospect, though, and he could be a very useful option for Wednesday, given his extraordinary height and proven scoring ability. Perhaps the Owls remain more realistic candidates than Man City despite the Premier League champions’ apparent interest.

In other news, some Sheff Wed fans have criticised an Owls player despite their win over Doncaster Rovers. Read more here.

Jomar espera se firmar como titular e pede paciência com novo esquema

MatériaMais Notícias

Um dos poucos zagueiros do elenco do Vasco, Jomar será titular da equipe na partida contra o Palmeiras, neste domingo, na estreia do Campeonato Brasileiro. Enquanto o clube se mexe para reforçar a zaga, o jovem defensor esperar aproveitar a chance e mostrar que tem condições de ficar no time.

– Estou trabalhando duro para ser titular. Agora vou ter a oportunidade de jogar. Quero dar o melhor de mim e dar alegria para a torcida. Ela merece um Brasileirão muito bom esse ano – disse Jomar em coletiva após o treino desta terça-feira.

Neste período sem jogos, o técnico Milton Mendes implementou um novo esquema tático, o 3-6-1. Ele foi testado nos jogos-treino contra oSampaio Corrêa-RJ, Bangu e Audax e deve ser usado contra o Palmeiras. Jomar pediu paciência com a nova formação, mas acredita que vai dar certo. Segundo ele, o esquema com três zagueiros é inspirada no Chelsea, que está perto de ser campeão inglês.

-Três zagueiros aqui no Vasco a gente nunca jogou, temos que ter um pouco de paciência, mas vai ser bom. O Milton tem treinado bastante essas semanas que a gente teve . Vamos nos agarrar ao máximo nas instruções do Milton para ter sucesso, assim como o Chelsea teve como esse esquema – comentou o defensor, destacando o que muda com o novo esquema.

– Muda muita coisa. Os dois laterais vão muito à frente. Tem a oportunidade de eu e Jean puxar mais como volante. Fizemos muito isso nos jogos-treinos. Com o tempo nós vamos nos adaptando a esse esquema – completou.

Jomar não se incomoda com a busca do Cruz-Maltino por zagueiros. Segundo ele, o elenco está precisando de opções para o setor e lembra que Julio dos Santos e Jean estão sendo até improvisados. Ele elogiou a possível chegada de Anderson Martins.

-O Júlio e até o Jean têm treinado de zagueiro. Será importante a chegada de mais zagueiros. vai ser uma disputa sadia e creio que posso ser titular, agarrar essa oportunidade.O Anderson Martins vindo vai ajudar bastante a gente. Já tive a oportunidade de treinar com ele. É um jogador muito técnico. Ele vindo, vai nos ajudar muito no Brasileirão.

No momento, o Vasco conta apenas com Rafael Marques e Jomar para a zaga. O jovem Ricardo, de 19 anos, deve ser promovido para o Brasileirão. Além disso, o Cruz-Maltino busca no mercado duas contratações para o setor: Anderson Martins está bem encaminhado e Xandão aparece como outra opção.
