Com dificuldade para criar, Vasco não marca há 3 jogos e tem 5º pior ataque

MatériaMais Notícias

O Vasco passa por um momento complicado em seu ataque no Brasileirão. Nas últimas três partidas, a equipe não conseguiu fazer gols. Um dos principais motivos para essa escassez de bola na rede é a dificuldade na criação de oportunidades. Montado para atuar nos contra-ataques, o Cruz-Maltino fica em situação complicada quando é preciso propor o jogo, o que ocorre quando encontrar um adversário fechado ou sai atrás no placar.

O Cruz-Maltino possui o quinto pior ataque do Campeonato Brasileiro, com 21 gols, ao lado de Cruzeiro, Atlético-PR, Coritiba, Botafogo e Vitória. O Vasco só está a frente do Atlético-GO (16 gols), Avaí (10 gols), Ponte Preta (20 gols) e Atlético-MG (19 gols)

Na primeira partida da série sem marcar, contra o Atlético-PR, o Vasco enfrentou um adversário fechado em Volta Redonda, e teve dificuldades em encontrar espaços. Assim, a equipe apelou para o ‘chuveirinho’ para tentar chegar ao gol. Ao todo, foram 36 cruzamentos para área na partida, mas sem sucesso. Além disso, contou com o azar, já que no último minuto Henrique chutou uma bola na trave e no rebote Paulo Vitor mandou no travessão.

Contra o Cruzeiro, o Cruz-Maltino teve uma das suas piores atuações no campeonato. Atrás no placar com dois minutos de jogo, o time do técnico Milton Mendes não se encontrou em campo e foi presa fácil para o Cruzeiro. Tanto que o goleiro do Cruzeiro só foi ter trabalho perto do fim do jogo, quando pegou chute cara a cara de Thalles.

Contra a Ponte Preta, atuando fora de casa, o Vasco entrou com a proposta que gosta: bem postado atrás e apostando nos contra-ataques. Porém, atuando com três volantes que erraram muitos passes, a equipe teve dificuldade em executar seus planos. O cenário só melhorou no segundo tempo, quando Mateus Vital entrou mais no jogo e criou algumas chances. Mesmo assim, Aranha fez apenas uma defesa, sem grande dificuldade.

Para se ter ideia na dificuldade que o ataque do Vasco vem enfrentando, Luis Fabiano segue como o artilheiro do time no Brasileirão, com cinco gols. O detalhe é que o atacante não joga há sete partidas. No setor de criação, Nenê, que não atua há quatro jogos, segue como o principal garçom, com três assistências.

Levando em conta isso, uma coisa que pode ajudar é a reintegração de Nenê ao grupo, o que deve ocorrer nesta quarta. Segundo o Jean, isso é algo que contribuiria. Além disso, o volante contou que Milton já vem falando com os jovens na frente e com Luis Fabiano, que deve voltar contra o Palmeiras, para melhorar a situação.

– Com certeza a reintegração do Nenê ajudara muito, pela qualidade que ele tem. Mas o professor Milton também já tem conversando muito com o meninos, com o Luis fabiano. Teve bastante jogos que a gente fez gols também. Acho que o momento agora é de organizar. Temos que fazer resultado. Já vi time sendo campeão ganhando de 1 a 0. Então, o momento é a gente buscar a vitoria por mínima que seja e pontuar – comentou Jean.

Gibbs gives Deccan fourth consecutive win

A tenacious display from Deccan Chargers’ bowlers followed by a murderous assault from their opening batsmen secured their fourth consecutive win of the tournament and firmly established Deccan as the team to beat this season

How they were out
Herschelle Gibbs was the Man of the Match for his unbeaten 69•AFP

A tenacious display from Deccan Chargers’ bowlers followed by a murderous assault from their opening batsmen secured their fourth consecutive win of the tournament and firmly established the Hyderabad side as the team to beat this season.Pragyan Ojha once again bowled impressively – picking up two wickets in one crucial over, including that of the dangerous-looking Matthew Hayden – to restrict Chennai to merely 165 when they looked set for much more at one stage. The competitive target, however, was diminished by a withering assault from Adam Gilchrist and Herschelle Gibbs. They blitzed 60 runs off the first four overs and gave their team enough cushion against a few setbacks on their way to victory.Gilchrist dictated terms from the first over, in which he drove L Balaji to the long-off and extra-cover boundaries. Gibbs took on Manpreet Gony in the next: he charged and lofted straight down the ground for four, pulled over the fine-leg boundary and hit two more fours to midwicket and square leg to take 20 runs off the over. Balaji dropped Gilchrist – a hard caught-and-bowled chance – in the third over and paid for it by conceding 17 runs. Gilchrist deposited the ball into the stands at deep square leg, pulled another one to the midwicket boundary, and launched yet another over the straight boundary. MS Dhoni brought Albie Morkel into the attack but there was barely any improvement as Gilchrist drilled him to the cover boundary and whacked him over the rope at square leg.With the fast bowlers bleeding runs, Dhoni turned to spin and the breakthroughs came from the unlikeliest of operators. Suresh Raina struck twice with his offbreaks, inducing both Gilchrist, who clobbered 44 off 18 balls, and VVS Laxman to cut to short third man. Deccan had gone from 67 for 0 to 75 for 2 and they scored only 25 runs between overs six and ten. However, the early momentum provided by Gilchrist and the steady half-century from Gibbs, who batted through the innings, ensured that the lull did not do irreparable damage. Gibbs shifted to a lower gear but ensured that he was on strike when eight runs were needed off the last over. The first ball was full from Balaji, Gibbs got under it and heaved it over the deep midwicket boundary to ease Deccan’s nerves.A larger target would have stretched Deccan, given that they had only three balls to spare, and Ojha’s double-breakthrough in the 13th over played a crucial role in keeping Chennai to 165. Hayden was at his bullying best, stepping out and muscling bowlers across the quick outfield at Kingsmead. Parthiv Patel continued the odd trend of teams losing a wicket before scoring a run but the early loss did not faze Hayden. He attacked RP Singh, the league’s highest wicket-taker, immediately by walking down to swat him to the midwicket boundary and to cut over point. The extra pace and bounce of Fidel Edwards didn’t make a difference either and Hayden advanced and powered him through the off side.Hayden found an attacking partner in Suresh Raina but both batsmen were lucky to survive dropped catches. Raina was let off by debutant Azhar Bilakhia at gully when he was on two and Gilchrist grassed a tough chance to his left when Hayden was on 17. They made Deccan pay for their lapses during a 64-run stand for the second wicket.Ojha repeated his performance against Mumbai Indians soon after the tactical time-out. Against Mumbai, he took three wickets in successive overs and today he managed to dismiss both Dhoni and Hayden in one. Chennai slipped from 102 for 2 to 103 for 4 in the space of three balls. Curiously Gilchrist didn’t give Ojha another over and he finished with figures of 2 for 11 in two overs.Jacob Oram, who replaced the injured Flintoff, provided Chennai with acceleration towards the end of the innings, hitting the debutant Shoaib Ahmed for massive sixes down the ground. Oram helped Chennai take 20 runs off the 18th over but their total proved too little against Deccan’s in-form batting line-up.

Everton fans on Mina contract news

Many Everton fans have been left flocking to some news on Yerry Mina and his current contract situation at Goodison Park.

Writing in his latest piece for The Athletic, Patrick Boyland has now confirmed that the Colombia international is yet to sign a new deal at the Merseyside club, as his current one expires at the end of the season.

The journalist claims that there is a decision now to be made on his future, as he becomes more important to the team’s hopes.

Given that Rafa Benitez’s side conceded from another corner at the weekend against West Ham United, attention immediately drew to the absence of Mina, who at six-foot-five-inches tall certainly helps them aerially in both boxes.

He is also reliable with the ball at his feet, as he has averaged a higher pass success (76.4%) in the Premier League so far this season compared to Ben Godfrey, Mason Holgate and Michael Keane (Whoscored).

ليفاندوفسكي يعتذر لجماهير بايرن ميونخ ويوضح سبب تجاهله لـ ريال مدريد

حرص النجم البولندي روبرت ليفاندوفسكي، لاعب فريق برشلونة، على توجيه رسالة اعتذار إلى جماهير بايرن ميونخ بعد ما حدث في الفترة الأخيرة.

وشعرت جماهير بايرن ميونخ بحالة من الغضب تجاه ليفاندوفسكي، بسبب إصرار الأخير على مغادرة الأليانز آرينا والانتقال إلى برشلونة، حيث صرح آنذاك: “أريد ترك بايرن ميونخ من أجل المزيد من المشاعر في حياتي”.

وتعامل عدد من جمهور بايرن ميونخ بشكل سيء مع ليفاندوفسكي، عندما حرص الأخير على توديع الفريق قبل أيام، حيث ظلوا يرددون بجانبه: “هلا مدريد هلا مدريد”.

وقال ليفاندوفسكي في تصريحات لقناة “sport1” الألمانية: “أعلم أن هذا قد أضر بالكثير من المشجعين، أستطيع أن أفهمهم، والآن أعتذر فقط عن ذلك”.

وأضاف: “في تلك اللحظة كان من المهم والضروري بالنسبة لي أن أوضح أنني مستعد للتغيير، في نهاية الأمر نحن جميعًا بشر، أليس كذلك؟ بعد 12 عامًا في ألمانيا، كان من الواضح لي: لقد انتهيت هنا”.

وواصل: “أردت أن أوضح ذلك، لأنه بالطبع لم يكن من السهل على بايرن ميونخ الموافقة على البيع خلال هذه المرحلة، لقد كان موقفًا صعبًا لجميع المعنيين، وكان علينا إيجاد أفضل حل”.

وعن هتاف المشجعين ضده، قال: “نعم، سمعت ذلك أيضًا وضحكت، لكن كان هناك أيضًا عدد قليل ممن هتفوا باسمي، كان ذلك رائعًا حقًا، في الأسابيع القليلة الماضية قابلت أيضًا بعض المشجعين في الشارع الذين عبروا عن تفهمهم لوضعي وتمنوا لي كل التوفيق”.

وسُئل ليفاندوفسكي عن ريال مدريد، خاصة أنه كان يومًا ما يمثل نادي أحلامه، وما إذا كان قد تواصل مع مستشاره السابق مايك بارثيل للحصول على نصيحة منه بشأن هذا الأمر.

ورد ليفا: “لم أتواصل معه منذ ما يقرب من 5 سنوات، يمكن أيضًا أن تتغير أفكار الشخص ورغباته في مثل هذه الفترة الزمنية، كانت هناك محادثات مع ريال مدريد، لكن لم يحدث أي شيء”.

واختتم: “كنت أرغب دائمًا في اللعب في الدوري الإسباني، وكان ذلك واضحًا بالنسبة لي، وعندما جاء برشلونة هذه المرة، كان هو الخيار الوحيد بالنسبة لي، كانت هناك عروض أخرى لكنها لم تعجبني”.

Surrey announces pre-tax profit

Surrey County Cricket Club has received a boost ahead of the new season after announcing pre-tax profits of more than £583,000 for the 2008 financial year

Cricinfo staff14-Apr-2009Surrey County Cricket Club has received a boost ahead of the new season after announcing pre-tax profits of more than £583,000 for the 2008 financial year.Despite a desperate season on the field in 2008, which culminated in relegation from the first division of the County Championship, Surrey’s hospitality, conference and events activities continued apace, with Oval Events Limited (OEL) and Oval Events Holdings Limited (OEHL) contributing to an annual turnover of £23,961,000.”We are pleased to announce a pre-tax profit in excess of £500,000,” said Surrey’s chief executive, Paul Sheldon. “Income streams were strong throughout the year, particularly our conference and events business. We also recorded our highest ever membership number of 10,113 during the 2008 season.”The profits from 2008 have been ploughed back into the development of The Oval, with the outfield being completely re-laid for the 2009 season, in addition to the installation of new floodlights and the appointment of a new management team, headed by the former Sussex captain, Chris Adams.”2009 will be greatly helped by both the Ashes series and the ICC World Twenty20 but in these times of economic uncertainty our financial position cannot be taken for granted,” said Sheldon. “I feel confident that the club has a management team and staff in place whose experience and dedication will see us through these difficult times.”

Tottenham: Spurs eye Harry Souttar

Tottenham have joined Aston Villa in the race to sign Stoke City defender Harry Souttar, according to Football Insider.

The Lowdown: Souttar profiled

Souttar, described as ‘quality’ by Potters boss Michael O’Neill, is 22 years of age and stands at a huge 6 foot 5.

The Australia international has been with Stoke since 2016 and has made 56 senior appearances for the club, 11 of which have come during the current campaign.

He appears to be at the top of his game with a career-high £3.6m Transfermarkt valuation, and it seems as if Daniel Levy is willing to get the chequebook out for Souttar’s services.

The Latest: Scouting mission

Football Insider shared a story on Thursday afternoon, claiming Spurs are looking to pip Aston Villa to a deal for Souttar.

They were informed by a Spurs source that the club have sent scouts to watch the defender in action on multiple occasions already this season and are keeping tabs on Souttar ahead of the winter window.

The Verdict: Revenge on Villa?

Villa pipped Spurs to a deal for Caleb Chukwuemeka over the summer, and it appears as if the two could go head-to-head again in the New Year.

However, Tottenham have five senior centre-backs on the books at this moment in time, four of which are 25 years of age or younger, so a winter window deal doesn’t seem vital.

Spurs may like what they see in Souttar, though, so it’ll be interesting if they firm up their interest and battle Villa for his signature.

Esquema de corrupção na base do Corinthians cobrava por escalação

MatériaMais Notícias

Por meio do pagamento de até R$ 50 mil como forma de suborno, jovens jogadores da base do Corinthians tinham mais oportunidades de jogar na categoria sub-17 até o ano passado. A denúncia realizada nesta sexta-feira não é a primeira que envolve corrupção nas divisões inferiores do clube, que já se viu envolvido em duas graves acusações em 2016: um empresário que pagou e não recebeu parte dos direitos econômicos de um jogador e outro atleta contratado mesmo diante de relatório negativo da comissão técnica, mas “apadrinhado” por um conselheiro influente na diretoria.

Desta vez, um homem identificado como Carlos agia nos bastidores para cobrar de familiares dos jogadores quantias em dinheiro que seriam divididas entre funcionários do clube e facilitariam a carreira dos jovens no Corinthians. De acordo com apuração do site Globoesporte.com, o tal Carlos na verdade éWilson Zaponi Gomes da Silva, pai de Marcio Zanardi, ex-técnico da equipe sub-17 do clube.

– Se der um incentivo lá, é evidente que eles vão colocar o moleque para jogar, vão preparar o menino para estar lá junto. O que os caras querem é aquela grana que te falei. Senão, os caras… É uma coisa. Cada um já fez a sua parte. Acredito que o valor que vai ser investido é uma m…, pelo investimento que vai ser feito (…) Você pensa que é brincadeira? É dez “pau” cada um – diz o operador do esquema, em conversa gravada com Luiz, um interlocutor não identificado, e David Lopes Rodrigues, pai de um garoto do sub-17 chamado Felipe.

– Se você não der um dinheirinho, você se f… Precisa dar o dinheiro, senão não temos como prosseguir lá. Não é sacanagem o que estou falando, estou falando a verdade. Você precisa fazer uma forcinha para que as coisas caminhem direitinho, para que as coisas sejam boas. Não tem outra maneira de ser – relata.

Um comprovante bancário de transferência de R$ 20 mil de David a Wilson Zaponi, identificado nas gravações como Carlos, atesta a identidade do pai do treinador, que nega relação com o caso. Márcio Zanardi não dirige o sub-17 do Corinthians desde novembro de 2016, pouco após a entrada de Fausto Bittar Filho como coordenador da base. O dirigente, aliás, foi alçado ao cargo como responsável por uma moralização da base após diversas denúncias de corrupção.

كوليبالي يرد على رئيس نابولي بعد تصريحاته عن اللاعبين الأفارقة

رد كاليدو كوليبالي، المنضم حديثًا إلى تشيلسي، على رئيس نابولي أوريليو دي لورينتيس بعد مطالبة الأخير بعدم التعاقد مع لاعبين أفارقة بسبب التزامات كأس الأمم الإفريقية.

تعهد مالك نابولي بأنه لن يسمح بالتعاقد مع اللاعبين الأفارقة إلا إذا رفضوا فرصة تمثيل بلادهم في كأس الأمم الإفريقية.

ومع ذلك، فقد أثار موقفه انتقادات واسعة النطاق، لا سيما من أصحاب المصلحة في القارة الإفريقية.

كاليدو كوليبالي، الذي أمضى ثماني سنوات في نابولي قبل الانضمام إلى تشيلسي هذا الصيف، عبر عن استيائه من تعليقات دي لورينتيس.

وطلب كوليبالي من رئيس نابولي إظهار المزيد من الاحترام للمنافسة الرئيسية في القارة الإفريقية.

قال كوليبالي عن دي لورينتيس في تصريحات نشرتها صحيفة “ذا أثليتيك”: “الأمر متروك له، أهم شيء بالنسبة لي هو احترام الجميع، أنا دائما أحترم الجميع”.

وأضاف: “عندما لعبت هناك كنت ألعب أيضًا مع السنغال، وفزت بكأس الأمم الأفريقية، صحيح أنها كانت لحظة صعبة بالنسبة لهم [نابولي] عندما ذهبنا إلى كأس الأمم الإفريقية، لكنني سعيد حقًا بفوزنا باللقب”.

وتابع: “علينا احترام المنتخب الوطني أيضا، لا يمكنك التحدث عن منتخب إفريقي بهذه الطريقة، على ما أعتقد، يجب أن تحترم المنتخبات الأخرى”.

وأكد: “كقائد للسنغال، أعتقد أنها ليست طريقة جيدة للتحدث عن المنتخب الوطني، لكني أحترم ما يعتقده، إذا كان يعتقد أن الفريق يمكن أن يلعب بدون لاعبين أفارقة، فالأمر متروك له”.

واصل: “لكنني أعتقد أنه ليس كل شخص في النادي لديه نفس فكرته، أعرف الجميع هناك، أعرف أن المشجعين لا يفكرون بهذه الطريقة”.

وأتم كوليبالي تصريحاته: “الأمر متروك له، لكنها ليست فكرة عن مجتمع نابولي، لأن المدينة محترمة حقًا، هذا ما يعتقده، وليس ما تفكر فيه المدينة أو يفكر فيه المجتمع”.

Six Indians to play NZ domestic matches

Six Indian players will be spread over two rounds of New Zealand’s State Championship ahead of the three-Test series, Niranjan Shah, the Indian team manager confirmed

Six Indian players will appear in New Zealand’s State Championship to get some practice ahead of the three-Test series, Niranjan Shah, the team manager has confirmed. Their participation will be staggered over two rounds – Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Amit Mishra and L Balaji will play the matches between March 6 and 9 while Dhawal Kulkarni and M Vijay will join the competition for the next round, beginning March 13.There was doubt over their participation because two of the state sides – Canterbury and Auckland – include ICL players and the BCCI’s stand on the banned league prevents its players from joining any side that has cricketers from the league. However the scheduling is such that the Indians will avoid playing alongside or even against ICL players. This is a lucky escape for the BCCI which could have been put in a spot for the second time this week after having withdrawn Sachin Tendulkar and Dinesh Karthik from a charity game that included ICL’s Hamish Marshall.Auckland and Northern Districts have ICL players – Daryl Tuffey and Hamish Marshall – in their four-day squads but they already have the one permitted overseas player. Canterbury contracted its ICL players Shane Bond and Chris Harris only for the one-dayers and Twenty20s. The first round of games featuring the Indians has Auckland playing Northern Districts. In the next round, Kulkarni and Vijay will play the match between Central Districts and Wellington. They are yet to be assigned a team.Heath Mills, the New Zealand Cricket Players’ Association (NZCPA) chief who had earlier said the players’ body would block any move to pull out ICL players from the state sides to facilitate the games, said he was happy with the outcome. “Each major association is allowed one overseas player under our contracting environment which is something we have always supported and encouraged.”Justin Vaughan, New Zealand Cricket’s chief executive, said he was pleased that the associations and NZCPA had been able to work constructively with the board to meet India’s request of game time for the players.”There have been a number of issues to work through, including the involvement of ICL players, NZC’s rules around overseas and qualifying players, player allocation, scheduling and travel arrangements,” Vaughan said.”This is an excellent solution that means we’re able to offer the incoming Indian players appropriate preparation in first-class conditions – and at the same time give our domestic sides an incredible opportunity to play alongside some of the great names in international Test cricket. For some of our young players especially, the chance to spend four days on the park and in the dressing room with players of the calibre of VVS Laxman and Rahul Dravid is priceless.”India’s coach Gary Kirsten felt NZC’s gesture to accommodate the players set a good example for other boards.March 6 – March 9
Rahul Dravid – Canterbury v Central Districts
Amit Mishra – Canterbury v Central Districts
VVS Laxman – Otago v Wellington
L Balaji – Otago v Wellington
March 13 – March 16
Dhawal Kulkarni and M Vijay – Central Districts v Wellington
