Nas redes sociais, Juninho, do Vasco, pede desculpas por erro contra o Flamengo: 'Aceito todas as críticas'

Após a derrota por 1 a 0 para o Flamengo, que culminou na eliminação do Vasco no Carioca, Juninho usou suas redes sociais para pedir desculpas. O atleta conduziu a bola, mas sofreu o desarme na jogada que originou o escanteio. Na cobrança, Willian Arão colocou os rubro-negros na frente e praticamente sacramentaram a eliminação cruz-maltina.

Depois dos problemas de indisciplina na temporada passada, o jogador iniciou o ano bem e conquistou a titularidade. No entanto, ele perdeu uma bola decisiva, que praticamente desmontou a estratégia da equipe. Essa é a segunda eliminação do Gigante da Colina na temporada, já que também deixou a Copa do Brasil ao perder para a Juazeirense, fora de casa.

DOMÍNIO DO LEÃO E POUCAS CHANCES…

O Sport começou na pressão e tentava a todo momento chegar com perigo na área do Fortaleza. Enquanto isso, o Tricolor se fechou na defesa, que trocava muitos passes. Com as duas equipes se estudando a todo momento, a primeira chance só aconteceu aos 15. Após cobrança de escanteio, a bola foi para a área. William Oliveira cabeceou. Jaderson ficou com a sobra e arriscou. No entanto, errou a meta.

A equipe pernambucana continuava a assustar. Aos 22, Landázuri errou o passe. Juba roubou a bola na intermediária, avançando até a área tabelando com Parraguez e finalizou. No entanto, mandou por cima do gol. O Fortaleza conseguiu controlar mais e respondeu apenas aos 27. Na jogada, Zé Welison arriscou de fora da área, mandando sob a meta de Maílson.

SEM GOLS…

Na sequência, o Sport tentou com Parraguez, que tentou finalizar, mas foi travado por Titi. O atacante foi o responsável por uma das melhores chances da primeira etapa. Aos 30, depois de um cruzamento na área, o chileno disputou com Capixaba, mas furou na hora de finalizar.

Não conseguindo criar na disputa, o Tricolor de Aço aproveitou as bolas paradas. Aos 34, Lucas Lima cobrou escanteio e mandou na área, depois de bate e rebate. Zé Welison, então, bateu de primeira para o gol, mas Rafael Thyeri interceptou, mandando para fora. Três minutos depois, os visitantes quase marcaram. Capixaba cruzou e Renato Kayzer mandou para Pikachu, que finalizou forte. Maílson, porém, fez a defesa. No final, Ceballos aproveitou falta cobrada por Lucas Lima e mandou por cima do gol.

REAÇÃO DO TRICOLOR

Diferente da primeira etapa, o Fortaleza entrou em campo buscando o seu primeiro gol e pressionou os adversários a todo momento. Com isso, em menos de 10 minutos, a equipe teve duas boas chegadas. Landázuri parou na defesa de Maílson, enquanto Robson mandou por cima do gol. Ao mesmo tempo, o Sport sequer conseguiu chegar ao ataque.

Depois disso, os times não conseguiram chegar com tanto perigo, deixando o duelo bem truncado. Após substituições por ambas as equipes, o Fortaleza voltou à intensidade e quase saiu à frente do placar. Aos 29, Lucas Lima cobrou um escanteio bem fechado, mas Maílson salvou a tempo, evitando um golaço.

Após as chances desperdiçadas pelo Tricolor, o Sport reagiu e conseguiu marcar mais. Aos 34, Rafael Thyere quase abriu o marcador da Arena de Pernambuco. Depois de uma cobrança de escanteio, a bola ficou em um bate e rebate na área, quando o zagueiro ficou cara a cara com o goleiro para finalizar, mas errou.

GOLAÇO!

O gol, enfim, saiu no final do jogo. Após diversas chances desperdiçadas, Zé Welison balançou as redes. Juninho Capixaba tabelou com Moisés e mandou para o volante, que, de fora da área, arriscou e mandou no ângulo de Maílson.

EMPATE!
Quando o jogo se encaminhava para uma vitória do Fortaleza, o Sport reagiu e deixou tudo igual. Depois de uma cobrança de falta na intermediária, Luciano Juba mandou para Bill, na área, cabecear para o gol, marcando o empate na partida.

Arteta earmarks £83m forward as a main candidate to join Arsenal in January

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has personally compiled a list of top contenders to reinforce the club’s forward ranks in January, with the Gunners widely tipped to move for new attacking options once we reach 2025.

Arsenal prepare for Ipswich Town after 5-1 win over Crystal Palace

Arsenal’s convincing 5-1 win at Crystal Palace was unfortunately overshadowed by star winger Bukayo Saka’s hamstring injury, and news then emerged that alternative option Raheem Sterling sustained a knee problem, which will also keep him out for weeks.

As a result, Arteta is now facing a real selection headache as he prepares to host struggling Ipswich Town in the Premier League tomorrow.

Gabriel Jesus, who’s recently returned to form with five goals in his last two games, is able to play out wide in place of Saka, as is Kai Havertz, while exciting youngster Ethan Nwaneri could even be deployed in that position.

There are a few options at Arteta’s disposal, but Saka will be an extremely sore miss for the north Londoners given just how imperative he is.

The England international, who was also sidelined for a short period earlier in the campaign, boasts an incredible 13 assists in all competitions already with nine goals to boot – and that will be near-impossible to replace.

It will be very intriguing to see how Arteta decides to field his Arsenal team against Ipswich in the 24-year-old’s absence, and the Spaniard has indirectly challenged his squad to step up while their key star is sidelined.

“I cannot be too specific because I don’t know, but it will be many weeks,” said Arteta on Saka’s lay-off.

“Obviously he’s a big player for us. You just have to see the impact that he has on the team, but it’s going to be a really good exercise for all of us to think about ways to overcome another challenge, because we’ve already had a lot in the season.

“We have to look internally at what we have and be creative, do a very good exercise again. How can we mould the squad? How can we adapt to the circumstances and be different? We cannot pretend to be the same. We’re going to have to be different and try to find the best way to do it and be very competitive and win a lot of games.”

While Arsenal reportedly contemplate signing a Saka alternative in January, reports suggest that a new striker is also firmly on the club’s to-do list ahead of the winter transfer window.

Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram a "main candidate" to join Arsenal in January

Indeed, a report from Spain has claimed that Arteta has personally compiled a list of “main candidates” to join Arsenal in January – and one of them is Inter Milan star Marcus Thuram.

The Frenchman boasts 13 goals and six assists in 21 appearances across all competitions so far this season, which has apparently garnered interest from Arteta, who’s earmarked Thuram as one of his top three striker targets alongside Bundesliga duo Benjamin Sesko and Victor Boniface.

The 27-year-old won’t come cheap, though, as it is estimated he’ll cost around £83 million to prise away from the San Siro.

It is very debatable whether Arsenal will part with that sort of money mid-season, regardless of Arteta’s fondness for Thuram, with both Sesko and Boniface also commanding lower price tags.

مصطفى عبده: الأهلي دخل في مفاوضات مع مدرب جديد.. وهل كولر كان في وعيه؟

طالب مصطفى عبده لاعب الأهلي الأسبق، بضرورة رحيل مارسيل كولر المدير الفني للأحمر بعد توديع الأخير لمنافسات بطولة دوري أبطال إفريقيا أمام صن داونز.

وانتهت المباراة بين الأهلي وصن داونز بالتعادل 1-1، وذلك على أرضية استاد القاهرة في إياب نصف نهائي دروي أبطال إفريقيا.

وبهذه النتيجة فشل الأهلي في التأهل إلى نهائي الموسم الجاري من دوري أبطال إفريقيا بعد صعود صن داونز بمجموع المباراتين.

وقال مصطفى عبده في تصريحات تلفزيونية عبر قناة “إم بي سي مصر2”: “كولر قدم مباراة جيدة في جنوب إفريقيا، لكننا قلنا إذا لعب بنفس التشكيل في مصر فذلك لن يكون مناسبًا، ولا أعرف لماذا يعاند؟، ومن يعاند؟ إذا كنت ترغب في الرحيل، فليرحل (إحنا تعبنا)”.

وأكمل: “اليوم عاشت جماهير الأهلي في نكد، لا أعرف ما كان يفكر فيه، ولم يقرأ المباراة بشكل جيد، ولم يختار التشكيل الصحيح، ولم تكن التبديلات موفقة، ولا شيء كان صحيحًا، وأنا مختلف في جزئية أنه فاز بـ11 بطولة، الأهلي وفر له كل شيء وكل ما يخطر على بالك”.

وتابع: “خرج في المؤتمر الصحفي وقال إنه لم يخسر بل تعادل، هل هو في وعيه؟، وهناك مكسب كبير للاعبين إذا قرر كولر الرحيل اليوم، كان سينهي مسيرة العديد من اللاعبين، والقماشة التي لديك يمكن أن تُحقق بها أي شيء”.

طالع | حلمي طولان يدافع عن كولر: نهاية حزينة.. وهناك خلل في عنصر آخر

واستطرد: “كان من الواضح جدًا أن الأهلي سيخسر، ومن الجيد أننا لم نتعرض لخسارة ثقيلة بثلاثة أهداف، وكان يجب أن تحتسب لصن داونز ركلة جزاء 100%، ورأيي أن يرحل كولر، وأن يأتي مدرب جديد قبل كأس العالم للأندية”.

وأضاف: “عرفت أن الأهلي اتصل بمدرب وأبلغه أنه سيتم التواصل معه يوم السبت أو الأحد، لكنني لا أرغب في الإفصاح عن اسم المدرب”.

وأوضح: “الأهلي خسر أسهل بطولة في أصعب الظروف، وكان من الممكن أن تكون بطولة تاريخية، لكن كولر هو من فرط فيها بأيديه، وهو معروف بعناده، والأهلي وفر له كل الصلاحيات والإمكانات، وكان يجب أن يرحل بعد الخسارة ضد أورلاندو”.

واختتم: “كولر أنهى مسيرة لاعبين مثل ديانج، كيف يتم استبعاده؟، هذا مستحيل، لاعب مثل أفشة تشاركه في الدقيقة 92، وتخرج أفضل لاعب لديك وهو إمام عاشور، بينما أفشة في حالة صراع بينه وبين المدرب”.

Tammy Beaumont's 59 leads Lightning to first-ever Charlotte Edwards Cup win

Tammy Beaumont made another fifty•Getty Images

Tammy Beaumont’s second half-century of the season and Piepa Cleary’s three-for underpinned Lightning’s first-ever Charlotte Edwards Cup victory.England international Beaumont made 59 for the second time in three innings with a classy knock after Australian fast bowler Cleary had restricted Thunder to 152 despite Georgie Boyce and Emma Lamb’s 130-run opening stand.Lightning had lost all six of their fixtures in the competition last year and had already gone down to Southern Vipers and Diamonds this term, but secured a five-wicket victory at the eighth time of asking. Thunder were without Kate Cross and Sophie Ecclestone, both of whom are in India for the Women’s T20 Challenge.Lamb and Boyce had put on 95 in the victory over Diamonds on Wednesday and were at it again through low-risk accumulation having chosen to bat first.A rapid outfield paired with a short-sided boundary saw the Milligan Road side of the Uptonsteel County Ground peppered as 40 runs came off the powerplay.Related

The duo kept pace with each other, scoring their half-centuries within three minutes of each other with the same exact stats: 44 balls and five boundaries each. They both got lucky, and Cleary unlucky, as catches were shelled at mid-off and deep midwicket.Just as a score north of 160 looked probable, Lightning fought back to stifle the visitors with four wickets coming in 10 balls. Lamb scooped to cover and Boyce was well-caught at long-on for 56 and 71 respectively to end the second-highest stand in Charlotte Edwards Cup history.Cleary’s luck returned to have Ellie Threlkeld caught behind and Danielle Collins stumped with back-to-back balls before Shachi Pai was run out in the final over.The ever-effervescent Alex Hartley made the early breakthrough of Marie Kelly, lbw while sweeping, but Ella Claridge and Beaumont copied much of what Boyce and Lamb had done earlier.Beaumont needs no introductions, with intelligent manoeuvrability mixed with power, while Claridge showed off brutal power to hit four boundaries in the ‘V’.She was undone by Phoebe Graham’s slower ball to end a 61-run stand with her experienced partner, who moved to a 34-ball fifty with a glorious cover drive.Beaumont, who had been dropped on 20, dragged a cross-bat shot to mid-on and Sarah Bryce was stumped. Kathryn Bryce took her side to the brink of victory with 29 before Bethan Ellis’ back-to-back boundaries took them to the win with seven balls to spare.

Jamie Overton to make Test debut as James Anderson misses out at Headingley

Solitary change to XI as Stokes returns to training after illness

Jamie Overton will make his Test debut against New Zealand at Headingley on Thursday, in place of James Anderson, as England’s captain Ben Stokes confirmed a solitary change to the team that sealed the series with their five-wicket victory at Trent Bridge last week.Stokes, who had himself been a concern after missing training through illness on Tuesday, came through a training session on Wednesday morning after linking up with the squad, and will lead out the side in search of a 3-0 series win after a brace of uplifting performances at Lord’s and Trent Bridge.Anderson, who claimed 11 wickets at 18.63 in the first two Tests to reaffirm his status as England’s attack leader, will sit the match out with an ankle niggle – partly with a view to next week’s delayed fifth Test against India at Edgbaston, which gets underway three days after the conclusion of the Headingley match, and which England need to win to secure a share of the series that was postponed last year due to Covid scare.Related

“Unfortunately Jimmy’s not pulled up as much as we’d like to so Jamie Overton is going to make his debut this week,” Stokes confirmed during his pre-match press conference.That solitary change means that England will not, after all, field twins in the same Test for the first time in their history, with Jamie’s brother Craig remaining an unused member of the squad.Under the previous regime, Stuart Broad might have been considered for a rest after back-to-back fixtures, but in keeping with England’s new policy of picking their best available XI for each game, he will continue as the seam attack’s senior presence.Jamie Overton’s debut comes four-and-a-half years after his brother Craig made his first England Test appearance, and comes as reward for a fine start to the season with Surrey, for whom he has claimed 21 wickets at 21, and consistently bowled in excess of 90mph/145kph.England 1 Alex Lees, 2 Zak Crawley, 3 Ollie Pope, 4 Joe Root, 5 Jonny Bairstow, 6 Ben Stokes (capt), 7 Ben Foakes (wk), 8 Jamie Overton, 9 Stuart Broad, 10 Matt Potts, 11 Jack Leach.

Em casa, Athletico-PR domina o The Strongest-BOL e vence a primeira na Libertadores 2022

MatériaMais Notícias

O Athletico-PR conquistou a sua primeira vitória na Libertadores 2022. Nesta quinta-feira (14), na estreia do técnico Fábio Carille, o Furacão venceu o The Strongest-BOL por 1 a 0, na Arena da Baixada, em duelo válido pela 2ª rodada da competição. Com o resultado, o Rubro-Negro fica na 2ª colocação do Grupo B, atrás do Libertad-PAR.

ATAQUE X DEFESA

O jogo começou com boas chances, principalmente do Athletico-PR. O Furacão conseguiu ter maior posse de bola, mas sem finalizar. As principais chances foram pela esquerda, com Cuello. O atleta, inclusive, teve a primeira chance, mas mandou para fora. Logo depois, o próprio argentino mandou para Hugo Moura cruzar para Cannobbio, que acabou isolando. No final da etapa, Terans girou na área e cruzou para Pablo desperdiçar.

DOMÍNIO!

No segundo tempo, o Athletico voltou pressionando, sem dar espaços para o The Strongest. Assim, o Furacão teve boas chances até abrir o placar, aos 19 minutos: Terans, de pênalti. Depois disso, o jogo voltou a ser bastante truncado, com poucas oportunidades sendo criadas. Aos 32, ainda deu tempo de Orejuela acionar Vitinho, que ajeitou para finalizar, mas acabou travador pela defesa adversária.

PRÓXIMOS JOGOS

O Athletico volta a campo pela competição no próximo dia 26 de abril, quando visita o Libertad-PAR, em duelo que vale a liderança do grupo. Já o The Strongest recebe o Caracas-VEN, no dia 27 de abril.

Move over Moore: Spurs chasing £29m ace who will be one of the world’s best

It would be fair to say that, so far anyway, this season has not been a great one for Tottenham Hotspur.

The North Londoners find themselves down in 11th place in the Premier League, and while they have a League Cup semi-final to look forward to, it’s against the seemingly unstoppable Liverpool.

However, while the mood around the club is far from ideal at present, there have been a couple of positives to come from the campaign, notably the emergence of the sensationally gifted Mikey Moore.

So, recent reports linking the club to another young talent who could be even better than the Englishman should seriously excite the fans.

Tottenham Hotspur transfer news

According to a recent report from Spain, Tottenham are one of several clubs interested in Barcelona’s tremendously exciting young striker, Vitor Roque.

Alongside the Lilywhites, the report has revealed that fellow Premier League sides Newcastle United, Crystal Palace and Brentford are also considering the promising centre-forward as a potential target for the summer transfer window once his loan to Real Betis has been completed.

This competition and the fact that Betis have an option for another year-long loan and an option to buy into their deal could complicate matters.

However, Spurs could still get ahead of the competition by flexing their financial muscle, and, according to reports from earlier this year, an offer in the region of £29m could be enough to secure the youngster’s services, although that was before his recent uptick in form, so the fee could be higher today.

It could be a costly transfer to get over the line, particularly for someone his age, but given Roque’s form this season and the potential so many believe him to possess, it’s one well worth pursuing, especially if he ends up being better than the incredible Moore.

Why Roque could be even better than Moore

Okay, so the very first thing we should say is that, as things stand, from his performances in the youth sides to how he has been spoken about by those in the know and his short cameos this season, Moore looks like he could develop into a truly exceptional star.

Predicting a player’s future can be a tricky business indeed, but the young Englishman looks like he has everything he needs to become a true world-beater over the next five or six years, and so does Roque.

In fact, while the Spurs gem has made eight, mostly substitute, appearances for the first team this year, he still has yet to score or assist a goal, which cannot be said about the 19-year-old Brazilian.

For example, in 23 appearances for Betis this season, 14 of which have been starts, the “truly magnificent” prospect, as dubbed by talent scout Jacek Kulig, has scored six goals and provided two assists.

Moreover, for someone his age, he has some seriously impressive offensive underlying numbers.

According to FBref, the Barça gem sits in the top 12% of forwards across Europe’s top five leagues, the Champions League and Europa League, for non-penalty expected goals, the top 14% for total shots and the top 16% for progressive carries, all per 90.

If that still isn’t enough to convince you that the “special” talent, as dubbed by former Atlético Madrid star Diego, could become one of the world’s best strikers, then perhaps his statistics from his final season in Brazil will.

For example, in just 45 senior games across the 2023 season, the incredible phenom scored 21 goals and provided eight assists, meaning he averaged a goal involvement every 1.55 games, which is a ridiculous rate of return for anyone, let alone a teenager.

Ultimately, Spurs already have several exciting prospects at the club, but Roque looks like he could turn into a genuine world-class talent, and a frontline with him and Moore could be truly special a few years from now.

معتز إينو يختار المدرب الأنسب لقيادة الأهلي بعد رحيل كولر

أكد معتز إينو، نجم الأهلي السابق، أن توقيت رحيل المدرب السويسري مارسيل كولر عن قيادة الفريق، كان مثاليًا، خاصة بعد الغضب الجماهيري في الفترة الأخيرة.

وقال إينو، خلال تصريحاته عبر إذاعة ميجا إف إم: “إدارة الأهلي لم تكن قادرة على اتخاذ قرار رحيل كولر قبل المباريات المصيرية، نظرًا لضغط المباريات وأهميتها، و”الغربلة” لم تكن ممكنة قبل مواجهتي صن داونز”.

وأشار إينو إلى أن كولر ظهر عليه التشبع في الفترة الأخيرة، وأنه افتقد أسلوبه المميز في الضغط على المنافسين، مما أثر على أداء الفريق وجعل استمراره صعبًا.

طالع.. خاص | غضب بن رمضان قد يقربه من الأهلي.. وحقيقة الكشف الطبي والتوقيع

وأكد نجم الأهلي السابق أن كولر يتحمل المسؤولية الكاملة عن الإخفاق أمام صن داونز، متسائلًا: “كيف نلعب بطريقة دفاعية في القاهرة؟ وكيف يظل لاعب بحجم أشرف بن شرقي على دكة البدلاء حتى الدقيقة 80؟”.

وتابع إينو قائلا: “كان من الممكن البدء بطريقة دفاعية خارج الأرض، لكن في القاهرة يجب أن نفرض أسلوبنا ونهاجم منذ البداية، وأسلوب كولر منح صن داونز راحة كبيرة قبل انطلاق المباراة”.

وعن المدرب الجديد، قال معتز إينو: “أفضل أن يتعاقد الأهلي مع البرتغالي كارلوس كيروش، لأنه يعرف اللاعبين جيدًا من فترة عمله السابقة في مصر، وأراه أنسب من الألماني روزه أو البرتغالي جوميز”.

وأضاف إينو: “البعض يرشح جوميز بسبب معرفته بالدوري المصري، لكن خبرة كيروش الدولية وقدرته على التعامل مع الأندية الكبرى تجعله خيارًا مثاليًا للأهلي في هذا التوقيت”.

وأردف إينو قائلا: “في حالة إتمام صفقة محمد  بن رمضان، ستكون صفقة رائعة جدًا، فهو لاعب دولي صاحب خبرات كبيرة وسيقدم إضافة قوية للأهلي”.

واستمر: “من ينتقد صفقات الأهلي قصير النظر، النادي يتطلع دائمًا للمنافسة على كل البطولات ويحتاج لنجوم كبار، وليس لاعبين صغار أو مغمورين”.

واختتم إينو تصريحاته مؤكدًا: “خسارة بطولة إفريقيا مؤلمة لكنها ليست نهاية العالم، الأهلي اعتاد على العودة بقوة بعد أي خسارة، وأنا واثق أن الفريق سيستعيد هيبته سريعًا، خاصة مع التدعيمات الجديدة”.

Celtic pushing to agree terms with young gem who is wanted by English clubs

As well as looking to bring in new players this month, Celtic are pushing to agree fresh terms with a young talent at Parkhead who is being pursued by multiple English sides, according to a reliable journalist.

Celtic transfer news

The Hoops were held to a surprising 3-3 draw at Dundee on Tuesday evening but remain in comfortable control at the top of the Scottish Premiership, as they are 16 points clear, albeit Rangers have a game in hand.

Celtic are yet to conclude any transfer business this month, but it appears as though Brendan Rodgers is keen to add to his squad, as he won’t want them resting on their laurels. One player who could arrive this month is Sarpsborg winger Sondre Orjasaeter, as the Scottish side are in talks over a potential transfer. His arrival would strengthen Celtic’s wide areas, a position Rodgers wants to target, but they face competition to get this deal over the line as teams from France and Italy are also interested.

Meanwhile, an exit could be on the cards for one Celtic player this month, as left-back Greg Taylor is wanted by Championship duo Hull City and Queens Park Rangers. The defender is out of contract in the summer, and while Celtic continue to negotiate over a new deal, the Championship pair have made him a transfer target this month.

Taylor’s positive relationship with Rodgers means he would be happy to stay at the club, but he hasn’t ruled out moving on, depending on what is offered to him.

Celtic pushing to agree terms with young gem

Taylor is not the only player the Hoops are looking to tie down to a new contract, as Fabrizio Romano reports that Celtic are pushing Daniel Cummings to stay and sign a new contract amid interest from West Ham United and Brighton.

The 18-year-old is a product of Celtic’s academy, playing for their youth team, under-18s, and now their B team. Cummings is a centre forward for the Hoops and has been in sensational form this season, scoring 24 goals in 24 games in all competitions at that level.

Last season was an impressive campaign for the young forward, but he has taken his game to a new level, and that has now put him on the radar of some high-profile clubs. Both West Ham and Brighton are keen on signing Cummings, as he is out of contract in the summer.

However, Celtic are not going to let the player go that easily, as they are pushing for him to remain at Celtic Park and sign a new contract. Cummings has yet to play for Celtic’s first team, but he did appear on the bench for their game against Ross County on Saturday. It would be expected that he would want some assurances about first-team minutes before signing a new contract with the Scottish champions, and if he doesn’t get it, a move to the Premier League could be on the cards.
