Abel confirma Henrique fora e brinca sobre Orejuela: 'Os peruanos jogam?'

MatériaMais Notícias

O Fluminense não terá o zagueiro Henrique à disposição para o clássico contra o Flamengo pela 27ª rodada do Brasileiro. Foi o próprio técnico Abel Braga que confirmou a ausência do capitão – fora do time há um mês por conta de uma lesão muscular na coxa esquerda. O Fla-Flu é no Maracanã, na quinta, às 17h.

– Ele (Henrique) está fora. Ainda não tem condições – resumiu o treinador.

Apesar de Abel Braga ter mantido o mistério sobre a escalação, o Fluminense terá outras baixas para o Fla-Flu. Wellington Silva, que trata de uma pubalgia, não treinou com o grupo durante a semana e não deve ser relacionado.

Já as dúvidas são muitas. Quem deve voltar a ficar à disposição de Abel Braga é Renato Chaves. Sem jogar há mais de um mês, o zagueiro pode começar como titular ou entre os reservas. Orejuela, a serviço da seleção equatoriana até terça-feira, por conta das Eliminatórias Sul-Americanas para a Copa do Mundo, retorna ao Rio de Janeiro nesta quarta, na véspera do clássico.

Questionado sobre a participação do volante equatoriano, Abelão retrucou:

-Não sei. Consegue me falar se Cuellar, Trauco e Guerrero jogam? Se o técnico de lá (Reuda) confirmar, eu confirmo – brincou Abel, lembrando que o rival também teve convocados – Trauco e Guerrero, no Peru, e Cuellar, na Colômbia.

O Fluminense deve ter o seguinte time para enfrentar o Flamengo: Diego Cavalieri; Lucas, Reginaldo, Nogueira (Renato Chaves) e Léo; Douglas, Wendel, Gustavo Scarpa e Sornoza; Robinho (Orejuela) e Henrique Dourado.

Younis says he continues enjoying captaincy

Pakistan captain Younis Khanhas said he is enjoying leading the side despite the semi-final loss in the ICC Champions Trophy and insisted it had not affected his own performance on the field

Younis Khan: “All the boys are enjoying playing under my captaincy and that’s a good thing”•AFP

Pakistan captain Younis Khan has said he is enjoying leading the side despite the semi-final loss in the ICC Champions Trophy and insisted it had not affected his own performance on the field.”I’m enjoying cricket,” Younis said after reaching Karachi. “In fact all the boys are enjoying playing under my captaincy and that’s a good thing.”Younis was first made captain in 2005 in the absence of Inzamam-ul-Haq but announced his resignation for the 2006 Champions Trophy, only to reverse it the next day and lead Pakistan to a first-round exit in the tournament. He was favourite to take over the captaincy following Pakistan’s poor show in the 2007 World Cup but he turned it down, citing mental strain as the reason. However in January 2009, the board approached him again following a disastrous home series against Sri Lanka. This time Younis accepted and led Pakistan to a World Twenty20 title in England.Younis said the Champions Trophy exit was bitterly disappointing as he had wanted to gift his country the trophy that had been shifted from Pakistan to South Africa because of security concerns. He said there were many reasons for the team’s defeat to New Zealand, including his dropped catch, missed run-outs and poor umpiring but that finishing in the top four was a positive sign.”I will regret dropping it for the rest of my life,” Younis said. “Maybe the result could have been different had I not dropped that catch.”Allrounder Shahid Afridi felt luck had deserted Pakistan in the game against New Zealand but also said that they had made poor use of the Powerplays in the match. They scored only 35 in their batting Powerplay after taking it only in the 45th over and conceded 55 when New Zealand took theirs.

Rangers fans lay into James Tavernier

A number of Rangers fans have laid into James Tavernier’s performance in his side’s Scottish League Cup clash against Hibernian.

The Gers returned to action after the international break got in the way of domestic proceedings, with a new era dawning at the club.

Steven Gerrard’s move to Aston Villa has seen Giovanni van Bronckhorst replace him in the Hampden Park dugout and, while the Dutchman watched from the stands today, he faced a Scottish League Cup meeting with Hibs in the first match of his reign in Glasgow.

Thing didn’t go as planned, however, as the Gers crashed out of the competition at Hampden, on what was a sobering afternoon for all involved. A Martin Boyle hat-trick inside the first 40 minutes send Hibs on their way to meet Celtic in the final, with Scott Arfield’s reply shortly before half-time providing scant consolation.

Someone who had a particularly poor day at the office was Tavernier, who struggled to perform anywhere near his best throughout.

As per Sky Sports’ live commentary on the match, he inadvertently diverted the ball straight to Boyle for a simple opening goal and was easily shrugged off by the Hibs striker for the goal which made it 2-0. The Gers captain also had little joy with

Big win puts Papua New Guinea on top

A round-up of the fourth day of the ICC Under-19 World Cup Qualifiers in King City

Cricinfo staff05-Sep-2009

Afghanistan Under-19 beat Hong Kong Under-19 by six wickets•Eddie Norfolk

Papua New Guinea Under-19 maintained their 100% record in the ICC Under-19 World Cup Qualifiers with a 92-run win over Uganda Under-19 in King City. This win took them to the top of the table after previous table leaders Ireland lost to USA by 42 runs.Openers Heni Siaka and Lega Tau added 51 together after Uganda put PNG in to bat. Two more half-century stands between Vagi Oala (46) and Jason Kila (33) and John Reva (29*) and Steven Eno (43*) took PNG to 234 for 5.The possibility of a serious chase was ruled out when Uganda lost their first four wickets for 42. Emmanuel Nakaana top scored with 37 off 80 balls and was the seventh wicket to fall for 126 when he was bowled by legspinner Charles Amini. The last three wickets added 16 more as the match was wrapped up in the 44th over. Amini picked up 3 for 21 in 8.3 overs.An all-round display from Canada Under-19 gave them a comprehensive 77-run win over Netherlands Under-19 at Malton Cricket Club in Toronto on day four of the ICC Under-19 World Cup Qualifiers. The middle order boosted them to 220, with contributions from Nitish Kumar (40), Usman Limbada (26) and Asif Manjra (27) after opener Ruvindu Gunasekara had hit a run-a-ball 35.Ferdi Vink picked up three wickets in 4.3 overs but went for 28 runs as well. Netherlands began well, their openers reaching 48 in 12 overs before left-arm spinner Hiral Patel dismissed them in quick succession. Vinoo Tewarie and Tim Gruijters added another 43 but Tewarie’s wicket in the 27th over – bowled by offspinner Riayz Pathan – triggered a lower-order collapse. They lost their last seven wickets for 43 runs as Canada wrapped up the match in 45 overs. Despite the win, Canada remained at fourth place in the points table and Netherlands also stayed at sixth spot.Afghanistan Under-19 bounced back from their 72-run defeat to Ireland on Thursday to notch up an easy six-wicket win against Hong Kong Under-19 in King City.Izatullah Dawlatzai and Aimal Wafa shared seven wickets between them as Hong Kong were bowled out for 195. Dawlatzai, a medium-pace bowler, dismissed the openers in the first four overs with only eight on the scoreboard. However Nizakat Khan led Hong Kong’s recovery with a patient 59, adding half-century stands with James Atkinson and Ashish Gadhia. The two bowlers finally combined to remove Nizakat in the 30th over – when Wafa had Nizakat caught by Dawlatzai with Hong Kong at 128 for 4. Wafa then took two in two overs as Hong Kong slipped to 168 for 8 before Dawlatzai picked up the last two wickets.Afghanistan’s openers Ayoub Ahmadzai and Javed Ahmadi added 67 together to set up the chase. Though Afghanistan also lost four wickets for 128, around the same point in their innings that Hong Kong did, they did not collapse thereafter. Wafa (27*) and Noor-ul-Haq (44*) finished off the chase with more than seven overs to spare. Hong Kong have lost all three of their games so far.Saqib Saleem took 5 for 38 as USA Under-19 beat table-toppers Ireland by 42 runs in King City to go to second place in the points table.Ryan Corns’ 86 and Shiva Vashishat’s 43 took USA to 217 for 6 – 72 less than what Ireland had scored in their win over Afghanistan. Ireland’s chase began well with openers Andrew Balbirnie and Lee Nelson adding 62. Balbirnie was run out for 45 and No. 3 Paul Stirling was trapped leg before for 10 soon after. Nelson fell with the score on 93. Saleem took the next four wickets as Ireland slipped to 141 for 7. The last three wickets fell for 25 runs – Saleem got his fifth when he had No. 10 Edward Richardson caught for 14 – and USA won with 21 balls to spare.

Grolli pede apoio da torcida e garante dedicação da Chape contra a Ponte Preta

MatériaMais Notícias

A eliminação na Copa do Brasil diante do Flamengo já foi deixada de lado pela Chapecoense. O foco da equipe agora é se manter na Série A do Campeonato Brasileiro. Em busca de vitórias para conquistar seu objetivo no restante da temporada, a equipe se prepara para enfrentar a Ponte Preta neste domingo.

Para incentivar os torcedores a irem à partida, que será realizada na Arena Condá, a Chapecoense fez uma promoção de ingressos para a partida contra a Macaca. Ciente da dificuldade da partida, que simboliza uma briga direta por por posição, o capitão Grolli conta com o apoio da torcida para embalar o Verdão do Oeste.

– Nosso objetivo maior é o Campeonato Brasileiro, é a nossa competição mais importante no ano. Para nós, é uma final, um concorrente direto, que vem de troca de treinador também. A gente sabe que vai ser um jogo muito complicado. Contamos muito com o apoio do torcedor e também com a paciência, porque vai ser um jogo muito truncado – disse o jogador.

Suspenso por conta do terceiro cartão amarelo, o zagueiro não entrará em campo contra a Ponte, entretanto acredita que a vitória sobre o Grêmio na última rodada, que livrou a Chape da zona de rebaixamento, deixou o grupo mais confiante para os próximos desafios do returno.

– Saímos para uma viagem com dois jogos difíceis, duas competições distintas. O que nos importava mais, que era o Brasileiro, conseguimos uma vitória contra o vice-líder e isso é muito importante para nós – finalizou.

O confronto entre Chapecoense e Ponte Preta, válido pela 25ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, acontece às 16h deste domingo, na Arena Condá.

Goodwin takes Sussex to final and Champions League

Sussex booked their place in the Twenty20 final, and with it passage to the lucrative Champions League Twenty20 in India, with a seven-wicket victory against Northamptonshire

Sussex booked their place in the Twenty20 final, and with it passage to the lucrative Champions League Twenty20 in India, with a seven-wicket victory against Northamptonshire. Murray Goodwin’s masterful, unbeaten 80 completed the run-chase after a sharp and efficient display in the field from Michael Yardy’s team.Goodwin has completed many harder run-chases than this for Sussex, but few with such rewards riding on the outcome, and was in control throughout as he brought up fifty from 43 balls. His Championship form has been poor this season and he showed some emotion as he acknowledged the crowd and his team-mates. His one scare came on 74 when he could have been run out as a modicum of pressure began to tell, but a square-driven boundary left four needed from the last over. The result was more comfortable than the two-ball margin suggests.However, despite helping his team take a step towards the potential for a huge pay-day in India, Goodwin won’t be there himself as he has a ‘cooling-off’ period after ending his ICL ties and is ineligible until the 2010 event. Nothing is simple in the evolving Twenty20 world.It was a disappointing performance from Northamptonshire, who arrived to Finals Day as the outsiders but had shown their capability this season in Twenty20. Unlike the other three teams on show, they didn’t have the motivation of a Champions League spot to play for after ICL-related issues involving Nicky Boje and Andrew Hall which, however professional they tried to be, surely impacted on their mindset.However, Sussex were also mighty impressive and never allowed the opposition to build any momentum in their innings with disciplined bowling and some live-wire fielding. Their 20 overs included just 11 boundaries and a solitary six with five of those fours coming in the last five overs, while overs seven to 17 included one four and the six. Northamptonshire’s powerful hitters – Hall and Johan van der Wath – were left in the dug-out for too long with the pair having nine balls between them to make an impact.Ian Harvey was the only batsman capable of forcing the pace and his brief innings was terminated by an inside edge against James Kirtley. Sussex produced two pieces of excellent fielding, firstly a direct hit from Ed Joyce from inside the circle to remove Rob White then a swift stumping from Andy Hodd to send back his opposite number, Niall O’Brien, for 24. O’Brien had shown plenty of innovation during his stay, regularly reverse-sweeping the spinners and would have escaped had Hodd not be so alert to the deflection off the thigh pad.Spin had been introduced as soon as the fielding restrictions relaxed and the nine overs between Yardy, Will Beer and Rory-Hamilton Brown conceded 54 runs. Beer, the 20-year-old legspinner, held his nerve well as the batsmen tried to take the attack to him, and his last two overs cost eight plus the wicket of Alex Wakely. Yardy, with his round-arm slinging variety, went for less than six-an-over as Northamptonshire couldn’t find the boundary.Luke Wright provided some early impetus for the chase and while the six-over comparison was very close, (Sussex 40 for 1, against Northamptonshire’s 39 for 1) Sussex always knew what they had to do. Goodwin and Rory-Hamilton Brown took them to within 16 of victory with a stand of 91 and although Hall made them work, Sussex never looked like falling short.

'Dor', 'filme' e orgulho de Jair Ventura após a eliminação do Botafogo

MatériaMais Notícias

A voz embargada e os olhos vermelhos não deixavam Jair Ventura disfarçar a dor e a tristeza pela queda do Botafogo na Copa Libertadores. O treinador que guiou uma campanha de vitórias sobre campeões da competição admitiu que fica um sentimento ruim, principalmente por entender que o time jogou melhor que o Grêmio na noite desta quarta-feira.

– O primeiro tempo foi muito bom, talvez o melhor primeiro tempo nosso na casa do adversário. Na última vez que sentei aqui (na sala de imprensa de visitante da Arena do Grêmio), perdemos de 2 a 0 e não fizemos um grande jogo. Mas dessa vez, jogamos bem. Principalmente no primeiro tempo, só que não conseguimos o gol. No segundo tempo ficou mais equilibrado. E depois do gol não teve mais jogo. Fica passando um filme. Você perde uma classificação jogando melhor que o adversário… fica uma dor – admite Jair.

As lamentações são mesmo inevitáveis, por mais que o rival tenha colocado duas bolas na trave, enquanto o Alvinegro colocou uma só. Entretanto, ele exalta o orgulho que sente dos comandados.

– A lição que fica é de que honramos a camisa e a instituição. Esse aqui é um grupo fantástico, mereciam algo maior. Por mim, não. Eu vou passar por muita cosia ainda. Mudamos 70% do time, é difícil segurar alguns, nunca tem o mesmo grupo. Esse grupo merecia um título esse ano. Eles deram o máximo em campo hoje. O que eu posso falar? Foi um jogo que não conseguimos. O Botafogo gostou muito de estar nessa competição. Vamos forte no Brasileiro para voltarmos no ano que vem – afirma o treinador.

Bridge doubtful of January Palace moves

Crystal Palace’s positive start to the season means that they’re unlikely to ‘go all out’ in January, according to Sky Sports journalist Michael Bridge.

The lowdown

Back-to-back victories over Manchester City and Wolves saw Palace climb into the top half of the Premier League table prior to the international break. Patrick Vieira has lost only two of his first 11 league matches in charge, and those were away to Chelsea and Liverpool, both of whom currently reside in the top four.

The start of the Vieira era was greeted with a £66m summer spend, and Palace didn’t sell any players to fund that spree (via Transfermarkt).

There have been some rumours of further activity in January, with Transfer Market Web reporting that £10.2m-valued Eddie Nketiah is a target for the Eagles. The Arsenal striker is England under-21s’ all-time record goalscorer with 16 in just 17 caps at that level.

The latest

Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, Bridge suggested that Palace chairman Steve Parish would be far more likely to invest if the club were nervously looking over their shoulder in the Premier League table.

He said: “Knowing Steve Parish like I do, I don’t think he will go all out in January when things have gone well.

“It’s usually when they’re a bit worried and looking behind them that they would spend but I don’t think they’re looking behind at the moment. They’re looking at what’s in front of them in a positive sense.”

The verdict

This is an entirely understandable stance from Parish if true. Palace’s current squad are motoring quite nicely and you wonder if they might try to keep some cash in reserve so that they can make a bid to sign Chelsea loanee Conor Gallagher permanently.

The 21-year-old, who has scored four goals and set up two more, is comfortably Palace’s top-rated player for 2021/22 on WhoScored with an average of 7.5/10. However, based on those displays, his value is rising all the time, so it may become increasingly difficult for the Eagles to keep hold of him beyond the end of the current campaign.

It seems that if Palace don’t plan to spend in January, that’s a good sign as it suggests that their trajectory is very positive.
