Doente, Bruno Silva vira dúvida para domingo. Dudu pode herdar vaga

MatériaMais Notícias

O treino do Botafogo da manhã desta sexta-feira não contou com a presença do volante Bruno Silva, com conjuntivite. O meio-campista, claro, foi dispensado da atividade e agora é dúvida para a partida de domingo, contra o Atlético-MG, no Independência, às 17h, pela 31ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro.

A doença tem recuperação média de uma semana e o Glorioso entra em campo já daqui a dois dias. Apesar disso, o treinador Jair Ventura não descarta a utilização do atleta em Belo Horizonte. O time viaja já neste sábado, depois do treino da manhã. Se não jogar, o escalado deve ser Dudu Cearense, até pelas poucas opções que o setor tem.

-Ausências certas são os dois suspensos. O atleta de alto nível sempre estará com alguma dor. Mas para tirar do jogo… Acho que não – comentou o treinador botafoguense, que só deixou a imprensa ver o aquecimento do treino desta sexta.

Como disse o técnico, o Botafogo tem dois desfalques certos: o volante Rodrigo Lindoso e o meia Marcos Vinícius, suspensos. Eles devem dar lugar a Matheus Fernandes e Valencia. Assim, a provável escalação do Glorioso conta com Gatito; Arnaldo, Carli, Igor Rabello e Victor Luis; Matheus Fernandes, Dudu Cearense, João Paulo e Valencia; Pimpão e Brenner.

– Estou com rinite, mas não fiquei doido (risos) – completou Jair, tentando esconder a escalação. O Botafogo também não contará, claro, com Airton, Leandrinho, Roger e Marcinho, em recuperação de cirurgia. No meio-campo, o Bota também tem Fernandes e Bochecha.

Newcastle: Lascelles was shining light

Newcastle failed to move out of the relegation zone as they were beaten 3-1 by Liverpool away from home in the Premier League on Thursday night.

Eddie Howe’s side did take the lead in the game early on as Jonjo Shelvey rifled in an effort from distance after a poor clearance on the edge of the box.

The Liverpool equaliser then came with a degree of controversy as Mike Dean allowed play to go on despite Fabian Schar and Isaac Hayden clashing in the box, with Diogo Jota eventually converting from close range with the latter sprawled out on the floor next to him.

Mo Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold then scored goals either side of half-time to win the match for the home side, with the full-back’s strike almost taking the net off from long range.

Forget Shelvey

Whilst Shelvey scored Newcastle’s only goal in the game, the player who was the real shining light for the Magpies on the night was central defender Jamaal Lascelles. The ex-Nottingham Forest man worked his socks off to keep the score down and made a number of interventions to prevent the Reds from adding to their tally.

Liverpool enjoyed 74% possession of the ball and this meant that the defence had to constantly be on their toes and anticipating danger, with little time to rest in possession as the Toon Army struggled to hold onto the ball. Fabian Schar failed to show his best in this situation, winning one of his six duels and completing 59% of his passes, whilst also being dribbled past twice.

This meant that Lascelles, alongside him, had to step up to almost make up for two centre-backs as his teammate was off-colour. As per SofaScore, the giant won 100% of his ground and aerial duels in the match, whilst making six clearances, two blocks, three interceptions and one tackle. He also completed 75% of his attempted passes and was not dribbled past a single time.

Shelvey, meanwhile, completed 71% of his attempted passes and failed to make more than one interception or one tackle. He also made an error directly leading to a goal as his wayward backpass allowed Sadio Mane through on goal, with Salah scoring from the follow-up to the Senegal international’s shot.

Therefore, Lascelles was undoubtedly the standout performer Newcastle in this defeat as he was able to put in a fine display in spite of Liverpool’s dominance and eventual 3-1 win. He was strong in his defending and did not make any glaring errors, which will surely delight Howe heading into the remainder of the festive schedule – having the skipper back in top form could be the difference between relegation and survival come the end of the campaign.

علي أبو جريشة: فيتوريا أخطأ في تصريحاته.. وكنت أحترم كيروش لسبب واحد

يرى علي أبو جريشة نجم الإسماعيلي ومنتخب مصر الأسبق، أن البرتغالي روي فيتوريا المدير الفني للفراعنة، يحتاج بعض الوقت من أجل معرفة اللاعبين، مُشيرًا إلى أنه كان يحترم كارلوس كيروش المدرب السابق، بسبب دفعه بالشباب.

ويستعد منتخب مصر لخوض مباراتين وديتين أمام النيجر وليبيريا، يومي 23 و27 من سبتمبر الجاري.

وقال أبو جريشة في تصريحات لبرنامج “بوكس تو بوكس” المُذاع على قناة “etc”: “فيتوريا يحتاج إلى الوقت لمعرفة اللاعبين وبدء العمل مع منتخب مصر، وما زال الوقت مبكرًا للحكم عليه”.

وتابع: “كنت مختلفًا مع كيروش من لحظة وصوله، لكن احترمته بسبب الدفع بلاعبين شباب ورغبته في تجديد الدماء، لكن فيتوريا يحتاج الوقت ولن أحكم على الأخير قبل مشاهدة مباريات المنتخب المُقبلة”.

وواصل: “فيتوريا ليس لديه شيء للتعليق عليه، لأنه ما زال لا يعرف بعض اللاعبين ولم يتعامل معهم، لكن من الممكن بعد المباراتين المقبلتين يتحسن الأمر”.

واختتم: “بالتأكيد فيتوريا أخطا في تصريحاته بأنه غير ملزم بالتتويج بكأس الأمم الإفريقية، أو التأهل إلى كأس العالم قطر 2022، لو هو غير مُلزم بذلك إذًا لماذا تعاقد معه اتحاد الكرة 4 سنوات؟”.

Mitchell Johnson reveals Ashes demons

Mitchell Johnson has spoken for the first time of the personal turmoil that led to his stunning meltdown during the Lord’s Test

Mitchell Johnson has spoken for the first time of the personal turmoil that led to his stunning meltdown during the Lord’s Test. In a frank and revealing interview, Johnson – the ICC’s player of the year – conceded that a tabloid spat between his mother and fiancee played on his mind throughout the match, culminating in a performance so awry as to convince him he would be demoted for the ensuing encounter at Edgbaston.Johnson’s match return of 3 for 200 from 38.4 overs in the second Test played a significant role in Australia’s eventual 115-run defeat to England. At the time, team-mates and staff sought to play down the link between Johnson’s delicate family situation and his errant bowling, however he has moved to set the record straight on the eve of this week’s Test against West Indies.”I’m probably going back on myself a little bit,” Johnson said. “I said in the past that I’d blocked things out. I guess it started off with the personal side of things. That probably really did get to me. I was denying it at the time, and copping it from the crowd didn’t help, but mentally I’ve probably learned to be a lot stronger and just concentrate on what I’m doing out in the middle. This is what I have to do for a living and I have to leave everything behind me when I’m out there.”I think that I block things out pretty well normally. It was just the Ashes: the whole hype of it and the personal things that came out. It was mostly through Lord’s where I felt that pressure. Obviously I was a little bit disappointed in some of the games I played in. I’m not always going to be at my best. I think I probably put a bit too much pressure on myself with how well I did in in South Africa. Coming into that series I probably relaxed a little bit as well.”Johnson flirted with the selectorial axe after Australia’s shock defeat at Lord’s, their first at the venue in 75 years. Stuart Clark’s precision appeared the ideal alternative to Johnson’s waywardness, but Andrew Hilditch’s panel pulled a major surprise by instead dropping Phillip Hughes and installing the relatively untried Shane Watson at the top of the order.The move to call-in an allrounder provided Ricky Ponting with insurance in the event of another Johnson blow-out, and underlined the lengths Australia’s selectors were prepared to go to accommodate their fragile fast bowler. That unexpected show of faith, Johnson said, went far to restoring his confidence for the final three Tests of the Ashes series and beyond.”I definitely thought I wasn’t going to play the Edgbaston Test,” he said. “I was quite nervous about it. I’m glad I got that opportunity again. You just can’t take anything for granted. I am glad I got that opportunity because who knows, I could have been back playing state cricket, which might not have been a bad thing. I could have been working on different things with my bowling. I’m glad I’ve been given that chance. I don’t know what the selectors were thinking, I don’t know what Ricky was thinking, if they were going to drop me or not. Just in my mind, I just thought that was going to happen.”For those guys to have that confidence in me just gave me confidence as well. It made me think a lot more positively about what my role was in the team, so it definitely helped. I had a lot more confidence in Egbaston and then Headingley. I think sometimes I think a bit negatively with my bowling, and it can get me in a bit of trouble, obviously.”Johnson also admitted to mechanical problems during the Ashes series – low arm height and awkward wrist position among them – but insisted all could be attributed to a clouded state of mind. “It got technical because I was thinking about it, but in the end it was more of a mental thing,” he said. “I had to concentrate on my bowling – where I wanted to bowl the ball and what I wanted to do, how I wanted to get these guys out. I just wasn’t doing that. Definitely in the Lord’s Test I was thinking about everything possible – I was thinking about my front arm, release point, swinging the ball, just everything. I probably concentrated more towards the end of the tour. I just forgot about off-field stuff.”The Australians are gearing for their first Test series since their Ashes disappointment, and Johnson is expected to headline an attack similar, if not identical, to that which slumped to defeat at Lord’s. He is convinced the chastening experiences of four months ago have hardened the resolve of Australia’s youthful bowling unit, all of whom are determined to re-establish themselves as an international force against West Indies from Thursday.The first Test at the Gabba represents an unusual homecoming for Johnson – he originally hails from Queensland, but these days makes his home in Perth. He hopes his previous experiences of the Gabba wicket for Queensland and Australia will convince Ponting to restore him to the new ball role taken away from him in England earlier this year.”I’m playing for my country, I’m a fast bowler and I’d love the new ball,” said Johnson, who has taken 13 wickets at 12.69 in two Tests at the Gabba, including a nine-wicket haul against New Zealand last summer. “That’s one of my goals: to open the bowling for Australia.”Hopefully I can bowl a little bit fuller than I probably have in the past if I get the new ball or whatever it may be. You’ve got to be a touch fuller, just like the WACA. That’s when you get your nicks and your lbws.”

Virender Sehwag compliments bowlers on victory

Indian captain Virender Sehwag has praised his bowlers for their performance in the third ODI against Sri Lanka in Cuttack. The hosts won comfortably by seven wickets to take a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.After Kumar Sangakkara, his opposite number, opted to bat, a solid performance from Sri Lanka’s top order had put them on course for a massive total but India’s bowlers hit back to shoot out the visitors – who were 160 for 1 after 22 overs – for 239 in the 45th over.”The credit for this victory ought to go to the bowlers, especially Harbhajan [Singh] and [Ravindra] Jadeja,” Sehwag said. “The wicket was slow and it kept low at times and it helped the spinners a bit.”With the kind of start they got, I was praying they wouldn’t get 350 or 400 on the board,” Sehwag said. “But we were constantly looking to take wickets and Ashish Nehra did a fantastic job during the Powerplay.”Once he got [Tillakaratne] Dilshan out, Harbhajan and Jadeja did their job very well and the game turned on its head.”Sehwag then got India’s chase off to a lightning start with 44 from 28 deliveries, while fellow-opener Sachin Tendulkar remained unbeaten on 96 as India made light work of the target, getting home with 7.2 overs to spare.”My job is to give the team a good start and score as many as I can,” Sehwag said. “I was in good form and I utilised the first 10 overs very well. Tendulkar then played right through the innings and ensured we won. Overall, this was an excellent team performance.”His Sri Lankan counterpart blamed the defeat on the poor batting display after his side lost their last eight wickets for 74 runs. “We had everything going for us: a blazing start, a good partnership which I managed to put on with Tharanga which gave us a good base,” Sangakkara said. “But too many wickets lost and that was probably the story of the game.”We didn’t really have a target in mind at the start but the focus was on keeping rhythm, working hard and building partnerships. We just lost too many wickets and with it momentum.”Sangakkara said Sri Lanka had effectively lost the game in the early overs of the Indian reply. “We had to try and get something with the new ball but these are not the easiest of wickets to bowl on. The bowlers did a really good job and we were good in the field as well but we really had nothing to defend.”We need to take a good look at ourselves as individuals and take a lot more responsibility when we get out there again. We have got to keep fighting and we have got to come back.”

Leeds likely to move on from Bielsa in 2022

Marcelo Bielsa isn’t likely to be at Leeds United past the current season, according to emerging reports…

What’s the word?

Football Insider claims that the Argentine head coach is under increasing pressure following a string of heavy defeats in the Premier League and he could be sacked as early as January.

A source at Thorp Arch has told the website that Bielsa “won’t be at Leeds next season” as many of the club’s senior figures are beginning to accept that his fourth season in charge will be his last.

It’s thought that the Yorkshire giants will look to bring in a replacement if their fears of getting sucked into a relegation battle grow in the coming weeks.

The 66-year-old remains popular amongst the club’s fanbase despite their poor season as he has endured quite a nightmare with injuries throughout the campaign.

Bye-bye Bielsa?

Bielsa only signed a one-year extension on the eve of the new season and has only ever agreed to short-term deals, so there is always the risk that he moves on each and every summer.

Despite finding themselves only five points above the drop zone and at risk of being drawn into the relegation mire, around 66% of supporters polled by The Athletic still have faith in the Argentinan, whilst only 10% of fans had low or very low confidence in him turning things around.

It’s evident that he’s still an icon around west Yorkshire, so these reports suggesting that this season could well be his last are certainly worrying and it will surely leave much of the Elland Road faithful worried heading into 2022.

Sacking him as early as January would be pretty harsh considering everything he has done for United, even more so when you factor in the massive injury crisis at his door.

Nine of the 11 players that missed Saturday’s 4-1 defeat to Arsenal were key first-team players. That is a major contributing factor to their struggles and they can rectify it at the turn of the year in the transfer window.

No one wants to see Bielsa and Leeds part ways in an acrimonious fashion, so this huge update from Thorp Arch is certainly a cause for concern.

AND in other news, Leeds can seal Bielsa’s dream signing in £18m-rated “machine”, he’s better than Klich…

النجم الساحلي: ملتزمون بسداد مستحقات كوليبالي.. وهناك صفقات منتظرة مع الأهلي

وقال حاتم الرقيق في تصريحات تلفزيونية عبر قناة “أون تايم سبورتس”: “وفقًا للاتفاق بين الأهلي والنجم الساحلي، تم تقسيم المبلغ على 4 أقساط، تم دفع القسط الأول، ثم القسط الثاني في أغسطس الماضي، ويتبقى قسط في فبريرا 2023، والقسط الرابع سيكون في أغسطس 2023”.

وأكمل: “الذي عطل دفع الأموال بسبب الأزمة المالية التي عانى منها النجم الساحلي نتيجة وباء فيروس كورونا، لكن في النهاية الناديين العريقين توصلا لاتفاق”.

وتابع: “قضية كوليبالي تدعم العلاقات المتميزة، والنجم الساحلي ملتزم بدفع الغرامة في الأوقات المحددة، ونوجه الشكر على التعاون الكبير من إدارة الأهلي”.

وحول هل تم الاتفاق على صفقات بين الناديين: “النية موجودة، وإن شاء الله في وقتٍ قريب يكون هناك تعاون، النجم الساحلي يرغب بشدة في تدعيم العلاقات مع الأهلي”.

White waits for another bowl

Cameron White has not given up bowling and says he would love the chance to do more of it

Cameron White is now a first-choice batting pick for Australia•Getty Images

Cameron White has not given up bowling and says he would love the chance to do more of it. Until the past year White has been picked more for his spin than his power hitting and was even elevated to the Test team in India in 2008 as Australia’s preferred slow man.But his batting has been hot since the limited-overs tour of England and he scored a hundred and a half-century in the opening two games against Pakistan to show he deserves a spot in the upper half of the order. As he has provided more runs he has delivered fewer overs, and hasn’t been called by Ricky Ponting since he got three balls against Scotland in August. That was 21 ODIs ago.”I’ve done a little bit for Victoria, I’ve done a little bit in four-day cricket,” he said in the Australian. “I didn’t bowl at all in the Twenty20s and not much in one-day cricket. If I get in the position to get a bowl [for Australia] I would love to, but at this stage I am just working on it in the nets and we’ll see how it goes.”I understand my role the way I am going at the moment, we’ve got plenty of bowling options. I am ready to bowl if required, but it doesn’t seem as if I am needed.” In 49 ODIs he has 12 wickets at 28.75 and an economy rate of almost 6.5 runs an over.White’s hitting has been so strong over the past week that he has won comparisons with Andrew Symonds, whose exit last year gave White a chance to cement his spot. “Andrew’s a fantastic player and was a great player for a long time, I think it would be a bit unfair to compare me to Andrew,” he said. “I am just enjoying the role. I am playing naturally and freely at No.5 and when I get the chance toward the end of the innings it’s good to hit some fours and sixes.”
