Depois de derrota em casa, Guarani busca reação contra o Luverdense

MatériaMais Notícias

Depois de encarar uma viagem de avião até Cuiabá e mais seis horas de ônibus, o Guarani chegou em Lucas do Rio Verde, local da partida contra o Luverdense. Vindo de um revés dentro de casa por 3 a 2 cotra o Londrina, algo que não acontecia no Campeonato Brasileiro há dois anos, o Bugre espera retomar a busca pela liderança contra o time mato-grossense.

O técnico Vadão falou com a imprensa nesta segunda-feira. O treinador admitiu cansaço da viagem, mas não utilizou isso como possível desculpa para o jogo desta terça-feira.

– É importante entender também que o adversário estará desgastado por jogar mais tarde que nós e ter a mesma logística para retornar. Não podemos ficar desculpando de tudo porque eles terão o mesmo problema que a gente. Vamos selecionar bem aquilo que temos de melhor, fisicamente e tecnicamente e não começar jogar desculpa na viagem porque dessa vez será para os dois lados – completou o comandante bugrino.

Luverdense e Guarani se enfrentam nesta terça-feira, às 21h30, no Estádio Passo das Emas, em Lucas do Rio Verde. Depois, o Bugre recebe o Internacionaç, no sábado, às 16h30. Caso vença no Mato Grosso, a equipe de Vadão pode diminuir a diferença para o líder América-MG para dois pontos, se a equipe gaúcha perder na rodada. Em caso de derrota, o Guarani pode até deixar o G4, caso Inter, Juventude e Londrina vençam seus jogos.

Newcastle: Players want Steve Bruce out

Craig Hope has dropped a major Newcastle United claim, regarding tension behind the scenes following the defeat to Tottenham.

What’s the talk?

According to the Daily Mail journalist, Jamaal Lascelles and Isaac Hayden had a bust-up after the loss and had to be separated by staff.

In the article, Hope revealed that a significant portion of the squad want Steve Bruce to be sacked before their clash with Crystal Palace, with the post-match bust-up leading to some players questioning the 60-year-old’s tactics in the dressing room.

He Tweeted: “Sources say players want new owners to intervene now & change manager as tensions rise.”

Delight

Newcastle fans will be delighted by this update from Hope in terms of the players wanting Bruce to be sacked this week. Whilst it is far from ideal to read that Hayden and Lascelles were scrapping with each other at full-time, it – at the very least – shows that the players are passionate and want to do well on the pitch for each other, although both players must find constructive ways to show it.

The playing squad are seemingly voicing their concerns to PIF about Bruce and their frustration could speed up the process, with Bruce hanging on by a thread as it stands. He was reportedly set to leave last week before the owners opted to keep him on for his 1000th game in management.

A 3-2 defeat to Tottenham at St. James’ Park on Sunday led to multiple chants calling for Bruce to be sacked, which may have been heard by Amanda Staveley and Yasir Al-Rumayyan, who were sat in the stands for their first game. This coupled with the unrest amongst the playing squad could lead to Bruce’s departure, which would undoubtedly leave the Toon Army delighted.

A recent survey, prior to the takeover, by the Newcastle United Supporters Trust found that 94.3% of supporters are keen to see him leave, with 95.3% predicting relegation from the top-flight. However, that second statistic could change if the 94.3% of fans are granted their wish and PIF sack Bruce, depending on who is brought in to replace him in the dugout.

What the survey does show is that the majority of fans want to see the ex-Aston Villa coach leave the club and that is why they will be buzzing with the players taking matters into their own hands to make it happen. It is now down to PIF to make the call and ensure that they replace him with the best candidate to lead the side forward.

Treino do Cruzeiro: Hudson liberado pelo DM e Messidoro em campo

MatériaMais Notícias

Duas notícias boas marcaram o treino do Cruzeiro na manhã desta quarta-feira, no CT Toca da Raposa II: o retorno de Hudson aos treinos, liberado pelo DM, e a primeira vez do atacante Messidoro em campo, recém contratado.

O volante machucou o adutor da coxa direita exatamente há um mês, no dia 09 de julho, quando a Raposa venceu o Palmeiras por 3 a 1, pelo Brasileirão. A tendência é que ele retorne já contra o São Paulo, no Morumbi, pela primeira rodada do returno, no próximo domingo, às 16h. Como o volante Lucas Silva está suspenso pelo terceiro cartão amarelo e Romero vem atuando pelo lado direito, ele tem boas chances de jogar ao lado de Henrique. Ariel Cabral está machucado.

O armador Messidoro treinou em campo pela primeira vez. Ele ainda não pode estrear, esperando a regularização. O que acontece é o seguinte: o Boca Juniors contratou o atacante Ábila, do Cruzeiro, e aceitou pagar a dívida da Raposa com o Huracán, clube de Wanchope antes da Raposa.

Em contrapartida à dívida, o Cruzeiro recebe o atacante Messidoro, com pouco espaço nos xeneizes. O Boca, por sua vez, negocia um empréstimo do atacante argentino justamente ao Huracán. Se o negócio melar, Ábila volta ao Cruzeiro e Messidoro retorna ao Boca Juniors.

Brad Haddin and Shane Watson have been fined 15% and 25% respectively of their match fee after being found guilty of breaching the ICC code of conduct during the Twenty20 international against Pakistan in Dubai on Thursday.Both players were found by match referee Jeff Crowe to have shown dissent at an umpire’s decision after pleading guilty to the charge brought by on-field umpires Aleem Dar and Zameer Haider and third umpire Nadeem Ghauri.The first incident took place in the fifth over of the Australia innings, when Watson was given out lbw by Dar. The player showed dissent by gesturing and hitting the bat against his hand. He also continued to make verbal and physical signs of dissent to as he walked off the field.The second incident took place in the eighth over when Haddin, as non-striker, pointed to his bat towards umpire Haider when Andrew Symonds was given out lbw. At that point Australia’s stand-in captain also claimed to the umpire that “there was bat involved”.”Both players immediately pleaded guilty to the charges and were very apologetic about their actions,” Crowe said. “While I understand that players will feel frustrated at times, both Brad and Shane were quick to acknowledge that they needed to accept the umpire’s decision without gesture or verbal complaint.”

تليجراف: تشيلسي يستعد لمحادثات بشأن ضم أوباميانج

ينوي نادي تشيلسي الإنجليزي إجراء مناقشات هذا الأسبوع لبحث مدى إمكانية الحصول على خدمات اللاعب بيير إيميريك أوباميانج من صفوف فريق برشلونة، هذا الصيف.

كان أوباميانج قد انتقل إلى النادي الكتالوني في صفقة مجانية، في الميركاتو الشتوي الماضي، بعدما فسخ عقده مع آرسنال.

وذكرت تقارير في اليومين الماضيين أن المهاجم الجابوني قد يعود إلى الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز مرة أخرى، من بوابة تشيلسي.

وحسبما ذكرت صحيفة “تليجراف” الإنجليزية، فإن تشيلسي سيكتشف هذا الأسبوع ما إذا كانت لديه فرصة واقعية للتعاقد مع بيير إيمريك أوباميانج من برشلونة، مع اقتراب عودة تيمو فيرنر إلى لايبزيج.

خطوة فيرنر المرتقبة، جنبًا إلى جنب مع حقيقة أن كالوم هدسون أودوي وحكيم زياش يريدان مغادرة ستامفورد بريدج قبل إغلاق فترة الانتقالات، ستزيد من حاجة تشيلسي للتعاقد مع مهاجم آخر.

كان تشيلسي يعطي الأولوية لاهتمامه بالمدافع ويسلي فوفانا، الذي لا يزال في حوار مع ليستر سيتي، ولاعب الوسط فرينكي دي يونج، الذي لم يبلغ برشلونة بعد برغبته في الرحيل.

لكن من المقرر إجراء مناقشات هذا الأسبوع حول اهتمام تشيلسي بضم أوباميانج، وما إذا كان المهاجم سيخرج من برشلونة أم لا.

من المفهوم أن برشلونة من المحتمل أن يبيع واحدًا فقط من أوباميانج أو ممفيس ديباي، الذي ارتبط أيضًا بتشيلسي وهو هدف في الوقت نفسه لنادي يوفنتوس.

يود تشافي هيرنانديز مدرب برشلونة بشكل مثالي الاحتفاظ بـ أوباميانج، لكن النادي قد يضطر إلى اتباع نهج أكثر واقعية بعد أن وقع أيضًا مع روبرت ليفاندوفسكي.

أجرى تشيلسي محادثات مع برشلونة بشأن عدد من الصفقات هذا الصيف، حيث يبدو أن الناديين يحافظان على علاقات جيدة رغم التنافس مع بعضهما البعض.

50-over cricket must evolve to survive – Gilchrist

Adam Gilchrist, the former Australian wicketkeeper-batsman, has said that mind games in Twenty20 cricket are on par with Test cricket and believes the format is not given its due credit

Adam Gilchrist thinks Twenty20 cricket is on par with Tests•AFP

Adam Gilchrist, the former Australian wicketkeeper-batsman, has said that mind games in Twenty20 cricket are on par with Test cricket and believes the format is not given its due credit.”The mind games that go on in Twenty20 are on par with any cricket that I have played, be it Test cricket. The challenge between the bowler and the batter is almost like a game of poker where the two guys are staring at each other and the first one to blink is the one that out,” he said. “There are so many questions in your mind; should you go hard on this ball, do you wait a bit? I am sure it’s the same with the bowler. Do I want to pump in, do I bowl the yorker, or defensively or attack him?”The reason I think this format is at par with Test cricket is because the mental pressure comes in as there is very little time to rectify an error. Test cricket one has five days to turn things around but here one wrong decision can prove costly.”Former players like Martin Crowe have said that Twenty20 cricket has already given the 50-over game an identity crisis. Though he believes 50-over cricket should stay, Gilchrist said it has to evolve to survive.”I do not know where 50-over cricket will land up. Twenty20 cricket came up due to the saturation of 50-over cricket. We do not want to saturate Twenty20 cricket. Cricket is a game that can mutate without losing its basic nature. We tried six-a-side and eight-a-side but that’s changing the basics of the game too much.”Gilchrist reiterated that for him Test cricket is the biggest form of game but that he has transformed from a reluctant Twenty20 player to being a fan. “It is a skillful game. I am a firm believer in Test cricket, and that for me, as the phrase goes, proper cricket,” he said. “But I don’t think Twenty20 is mickey mouse cricket either. It has continued to impress me due to how mentally strong one needs to be.”After a slow start, the IPL sprung into action with two close games yesterday. Both games hurtled towards an exciting finish, with one game even ending with a Super Over. Today, in Durban, where the crowd turnout has been poor so far, there was the biggest crowd for the Bangalore Royal Challenger v Kings XI Punjab game. The IPL is slowly coming alive.

رسميًا.. لايبزيج يعلن عودة فيرنر من تشيلسي

أعلن نادي لايبزيج الألماني، في بيان رسمي، اليوم الثلاثاء، عودة لاعبه تيمو فيرنر إلى صفوف الفريق من جديد بعد عامين من انتقاله إلى تشيلسي.

وكان تيمو فيرنر قد انضم إلى تشيلسي في صيف 2020، ولكن خلال الموسمين الماضيين، لم يتمكن اللاعب الألماني من إثبات نفسه في ملعب ستامفورد بريدج.

وقال لايبزيج في بيانه إن الهداف التاريخي للنادي عاد إلى ريد بولز من جديد، ووقع على عقد مدته 4 أعوام حتى 2026.

ولم يوضح بيان لايبزيج القيمة المالية للصفقة، ولكن تقارير صحفية ألمانية ذكرت أن النادي الألماني أنفق 20 مليون يورو من أجل إعادة صاحب الـ26 عامًا، بعد رفض تشيلسي إعارة اللاعب، وفضل بيعه نهائيًا للاستفادة ماديًا من وراء رحيله.

يُذكر أن فيرنر في 156 مع لايبزيج بمُختلف المُسابقات، تمكن الألماني من تسجيل 90 هدفًا وقدم 40 تمريرة حاسمة.

Crouch 2.0: Spurs eye Paul Onuachu

Tottenham Hotspur could find themselves their next Peter Crouch with a January swoop for Paul Onuachu…

What’s the word?

According to the Daily Mail, the north Londoners are the latest club to be linked with a move for the prolific Genk talisman ahead of the winter window.

It’s thought that Premier League rivals West Ham and Southampton, as well as Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, have already made enquiries for the towering 6 foot 7 centre-forward.

The Belgian outfit are holding out for around £20m.

Crouch 2.0

Spurs are expected to seek attacking reinforcements at the turn of the year as Harry Kane not only needs a viable backup heading into the remainder of the season but potentially a strike partner too.

Onuachu would represent an intriguing option as he would offer Nuno Santo a completely different threat to what he currently has at his disposal and, quite frankly, what Spurs haven’t had in a very long time.

They have not had a genuine target man option in the squad in years, perhaps since Crouch last graced a Lilywhites shirt in 2011.

Despite being an absolute giant, the Nigeria international has regularly found the net for Genk, delivering 56 goals in 85 appearances, which equates to around a goal every 111 minutes, via Transfermarkt.

It’s no wonder former Wimbledon striker John Fashanu has previously lauded him as a “goal king”, whilst Alexander Scholz, Onuachu’s former teammate at FC Midtjylland, once claimed he was “impossible to beat” – hardly a surprise considering his physical qualities.

Indeed, the frontman has averaged 3.6 aerial duels won per game in the Jupiler Pro League this season, further highlighting his unique ability, and it is something which only Lucas Moura (3.9) can better in Spurs’ current squad.

Kane sits lower with only 1.7 aerial battles won per league outing, via WhoScored.

On the above evidence, Lilywhites sporting director Fabio Paratici could well secure the north Londoners their next Crouch-like presence in the final third with a swoop for the £19.8m-rated colossus.

Nenê é reintegrado ao grupo após conversa com Milton e companheiros

MatériaMais Notícias

O meia Nenê foi reintegrado ao elenco do Vasco após vencer as duas etapas que precisava. Após pedir à diretoria para voltar ao grupo na última segunda-feira, o jogador conversou com o técnico Milton Mendes e os outros jogadores, reafirmando o desejo de seguir no clube e recebeu o aval para o retorno. Inclusive, ele já treinou com os companheiros em São Januário.

Nenê não entra em campo pelo Vasco desde a partida contra o Santos, no dia 16 de julho. Dois dias depois deste jogo, ele pediu para não viajar para enfrentar o São Paulo por conta de uma iminente proposta para deixar o Cruz-Maltino.

Com isso, o meia foi afastado do grupo para resolver o seu futuro. Ele chegou a receber duas propostas da Europa, no entanto, elas não se concretizaram. Assim, Nenê procurou a diretoria e manifestou o desejo de ser reintegrado ao grupo. Segundo Eurico Brandão, vice-presidente de futebol cruz-maltino, o jogador foi cobrado por alguns atos de indisciplina e precisava de uma mudança de comportamento, além disso, ele tinha que conversar com Milton e o grupo para ser aceito de volta, o que aconteceu nesta manhã.

Por conta deste período sem treinar com o elenco, mesmo com o retorno, Nenê não deve ser relacionado para a partida contra o Palmeiras, neste domingo. O meia deve precisar de um pouco mais de tempo para voltar a entrar em campo, o que pode acontecer na partida contra o Bahia, no dia 20 de agosto.

Everton: Fans react to Isco link

Everton and Leicester City are leading the way in the race to sign Isco from Real Madrid, Fichajes.net report. 

As it stands, Isco is apparently set to leave the club, with his contract due to expire in June.

He could depart in January if Real decide to cash in, or he could walk away as a free agent come the end of the season.

Everton and Leicester head a group of ‘several’ Premier League sides who are interested in recruiting the 29-year-old Spaniard.

This is after manager Rafael Benitez asked the board to make a move for the attacking midfielder.

James 2.0 for Everton?

Everton, of course, have recent experience of dealing with Los Blancos, having brought James Rodriguez to Goodison Park in 2020.

The Colombian pocketed more than £200,000 on Merseyside but wound up being offloaded to Qatari side Al-Rayyan only a year on from his arrival.

Fan feed Toffee TV relayed the Isco report, and here’s what supporters made of it.
