Na mira do Flamengo, Diego Alves é grande pegador de pênaltis e já parou CR7 três vezes

MatériaMais Notícias

Novo alvo do Flamengo, o goleiro Diego Alves, de 32 anos, tem um ótimo retrospecto como pegador de pênaltis. Os números do experiente defensor na Espanha são impressionantes. Ele já defendeu 25 penalidades em 52 cobranças atuando por Valencia e Almeria.

Diego Alves já defendeu um pênalti de Messi e incríveis três cobranças de Cristiano Ronaldo. Apesar da ótima carreira, o goleiro está fora dos planos do Valencia.O jornal “As” publicou que Diego Alves pretende voltar ao Brasil para ter espaço na Seleção Brasileira. O Flamengo, obviamente, é uma boa oportunidade para o arqueiro.

O Rubro-Negro já dava o ciclo de contratações como encerrado e disse que não buscaria um novo goleiro, mas a oportunidade de contar com um dos melhores defensores brasileiros no exterior pesou. O “flerte” ganhou força com uma campanha de torcedores do Fla na internet. Muitos deles pedem a contratação do experiente arqueiro.

Apesar do interesse, a negociação não é simples. Diego Alves recebe cerca de R$ 1 milhão mensalmente e precisaria reduzir a remuneração para defender o Rubro-Negro. Além disso, a janela de transferências será fechada no próximo dia 20 (quinta-feira).

Atualmente, o Flamengo tem o jovem Thiago, de 21 anos, como titular na sua meta. Parte da torcida considera que o defensor ainda está inseguro. Alex Muralha, que vivia má fase, foi para o banco de reservas e hoje está em baixa.

Em junho, durante entrevista ao programa “Melhor Futebol do Mundo”, do Esporte Interativo, Diego Alves fez elogios ao Flamengo.

– Eu sou jogador do Valencia e tenho contrato até 2019. O Flamengo é um clube que atrai qualquer jogador do mundo. É um time que faz com que o jogador tenha esse interesse de um dia poder vestir a camisa do Flamengo – disse.

يوفنتوس يعلن إصابة بوجبا.. وتقارير تشير إلى مدة غيابه

أعلن نادي يوفنتوس الإيطالي إصابة الدولي الفرنسي بول بوجبا في الغضروف المفصلي الجانبي للركبة اليمنى.

اللاعب تعرض للإصابة أمس في تدريبات النادي الإيطالي، قبل انطلاق الموسم الجديد، بعد عودته من مانشستر يونايتد.

بوجبا لعب لـ يوفنتوس من 2012 حتى 2016 قبل العودة إلى مانشستر يونايتد، وبعد 6 سنوات، استعاد مكانه من جديد في البيانكونيري.

النادي أعلن في بيان رسمي عن إصابة بوجبا، وإنه لن يسافر مع الفريق إلى دالاس لمواصلة فترة الإعداد مع البيانكونيري، وسيخضع لاختبارات جديدة خلال الأيام القادمة.

شبكة “سكاي” الإيطالية، أكدت بأن إصابة بوجبا تستوجب جراحة، وسيغيب بعد ذلك لمدة شهر كامل، مما يعني أنه سيبتعد عن البيانكونيري في افتتاح الدوري الإيطالي.

يوفنتوس يفتتح مبارياته الموسم المقبل بمواجهة ساسولو يوم 15 أغسطس، بعد أن يلاقي برشلونة وريال مدريد وأتلتيكو مدريد وديًا خلال هذه الفترة.

Rangers eyeing Joe Rothwell deal

An update has emerged on Joe Rothwell, regarding Rangers’ interest in his services.

What’s the talk?

According to The Sun journalist Alan Nixon, Rangers are weighing up a swoop for Blackburn midfielder Rothwell.

The report claims that he is out of contract at the end of the season and the Gers could snap him up on a pre-contract agreement in January.

Get it done

Rangers chief Ross Wilson must secure a deal to sign Rothwell on a free transfer in the January window. The Gers have a key advantage over any English side wanting to sign him as they are able to agree a pre-contract with the player in January, whereas teams south of the border will have to wait until his contract expires to speak with him.

36-year-old Steven Davis has been a regular this season, with 13 appearances to his name, and Rothwell could be seen as a long-term replacement for the former Southampton man. Davis has averaged a SofaScore rating of 6.99 in the Premiership this term, winning 50% of his duels and making 2.3 interceptions and tackles per game.

Rothwell, who is ten years younger than the Gers man, has averaged a score of 6.90 in 11 Championship outings for Blackburn. He has won 54% of his duels and made 2.1 interceptions and tackles per game, suggesting that he has been performing to a similar level in comparison to Davis, albeit in different competitions.

Blackburn boss Tony Mowbray once hailed the midfielder and urged him to get closer to the opposition goal. He said:

“He’s an exciting talent, he’s exceedingly fast, he keeps the ball really tight. We want him running towards the opposition goal rather than across the pitch.”

The £4.1k-per-week beast could be signed without Rangers needing to spend a penny on him in terms of a transfer fee and he could represent a bargain for the club.

This is why Wilson must work hard to secure a deal for him in the upcoming transfer window, so that he could potentially replace the ageing Davis heading into the 2022/23 campaign.

Em grande fase, Guerrero iguala melhor marca da carreira no Fla

MatériaMais Notícias

Vivendo a fase mais artilheira da carreira, o atacante Paolo Guerrero igualou a sua melhor marca em número de gols por temporada na última quarta-feira, no empate do Flamengo por 2 a 2 contra o Palmeiras, na Ilha do Urubu. O centroavante é o artilheiro do time na temporada, com 18 gols.

Em 2017, Guerrero já balançou redes 18 vezes com a camisa do Flamengo. A marca é a melhor da carreira, igualando a sua primeira temporada pelo Rubro-Negro e em 2013, com a camisa do Corinthians, o seu primeiro clube aqui o Brasil.

A temporada também marcou a primeira vez em que Paolo Guerrero terminou uma competição com o artilheiro. Na conquista do título Carioca no início deste ano, o camisa 9 marcou dez gols, foi eleito o melhor jogador do torneio e foi decisivo com gols na semifinal contra o Botafogo e também na decisão contra o Fluminense.

Se seguir apresentando o bom futebol que desenvolveu até o momento em 2017, temporada será de quebra de recordes pessoais para Paolo Guerrero. O atacante ainda terá muitos jogos até o final do ano, pelo Brasileiro, Sul-Americana, Primeira Liga e Copa do Brasil, para alcançar o máximo de gols que conseguir.

No próximo sábado, o Flamengo encara o Coritiba, outra vez diante do seu torcedor na Ilha do Urubu e caso faça gol, Guerrero ultrapassará a melhor marca, que teve ano passado pelo Rubro-Negro e em 2013 pelo Corinthians. Dentro de campo, o camisa 9 é um dos jogadores favoritos dos torcedores e nos jogos sempre tem o nome cantado.

Australia’s opening bowler Emma Sampson has shocked the cricket world by retiring at the age of 23. She plans to go travelling for an unspecified amount of time and confirmed it was not related to Australia’s under-par World Cup campaign.Sampson, who has no immediate plans to come back to cricket, said that even though the World Twenty20 was around the corner – with all its promise of increased exposure – and then the Ashes, her heart wasn’t in it at the moment.”I decided to retire because I am going to travel and work overseas for an unknown period of time,” she told Cricinfo as she watched the World Cup final at North Sydney Oval. Asked if she would consider coming back, she said: “I’m not going to say yes or no because I’m not really sure. I’d been thinking about it for a little while. Obviously I was hoping to finish this tour on a pretty big high. But that’s okay, I still had a good time on tour.”Looking relaxed and content with her decision, she added: “I don’t want to go on playing just because I don’t think my heart will be in it just as much as the rest of the girls. So the best thing for me and the team was to retire now.”Sampson has played in the Ashes and against all of the top women’s sides and has no regrets about calling time on her career which included 30 ODIs, a Test and five Twenty20s. Her best analysis was 5 for 30 against New Zealand in 2008.Leonie Coleman had also retired, although her action is less surprising, given that she is 30. Coleman has had few chances this World Cup, with Jodie Fields preferred as the wicketkeeper. Coleman played 24 ODIs with 23 victims.”It’s always a surprise I think,” Sampson said of Coleman’s decision. “She’s had a good career.”

كلوب يعلن إصابة لاعب ليفربول ويوضح سبب غياب جونز وكيتا أمام ستراسبورج

يأمل الألماني يورجن كلوب المدير الفني لفريق ليفربول الإنجليزي، في أن يكون إبراهيما كوناتي لائقًا للمباراة الافتتاحية للدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز يوم السبت في فولهام.

تم سحب قلب الدفاع في الشوط الثاني من هزيمة يوم الأحد 3-0 أمام ستراسبورج على ملعب آنفيلد كإجراء احترازي.

بعد فحص من أخصائي العلاج الطبيعي كريس مورجان على أرض الملعب، شوهد كوناتي وهو يعرج قبل أن يختفي في النفق لمزيد من التقييم، لكن كلوب يقول إنه ليس قلقًا للغاية.

وقال كلوب في تصريحاته التي نشرتها “ليفربول إيكو”: “لا نعرف بالضبط حتى الآن طبيعة إصابة كوناتي، لكن الأمر لا يبدو مقلقًا للغاية، لذا أتمنى أن نكون قد اكتشفنا ذلك في اللحظة المناسبة”.

غاب نابي كيتا عن المباراة بسبب المرض، ولا يُعتقد أنه سيكون مصدر قلق لمباراة ليفربول ضد فولهام الفريق الصاعد حديثًا في كرافن كوتيدج.

وأكد كلوب أيضًا أنه سيتم تقييم كورتيس جونز بشكل أكبر، بعد أن نصحت الإدارة الطبية بإبعاده عن المباراة الودية يوم الأحد، بعد ظهوره المتأخر خلال فوز درع المجتمع يوم السبت ضد مانشستر سيتي.

عند سؤاله عما إذا كان كيتا أو جونز قد يكونان موضع شك في المباراة الافتتاحية للدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز مع فولهام رد كلوب: “نابي مريض لذا لا، وكورتيس يشعر بقليل من التعب ولا يمكننا تحمل أي مخاطر”.

وأكمل “كورتيس، علينا أن نرى، يا إلهي ، ماذا يمكن أن يكون؟ لم يكن لدينا وقت؛ لقد شعر بذلك اليوم وأراد اللعب، ولكن بعد ذلك قال القسم الطبي لا وإننا بحاجة إلى إجراء مزيد من الاختبارات، سنفعل ذلك غدًا وبعد ذلك سنعرف المزيد”.

Em ótimo Clássico das Multidões, Timão e Fla empatam em Itaquera

MatériaMais Notícias

Corinthians e Flamengo fizeram um ótimo Clássico das Multidões na tarde deste domingo. A Arena lotada teve estreia de Diego Alves, gol muito mal anulado, Jô virando artilheiro, golaço de voleio, recorde quebrado… No fim, o empate por 1 a 1 acabou sendo melhor para o líder Timão, que sofreu pressão do Rubro-Negro no segundo tempo.

Com o empate, o Corinthians quebrou uma marca que era justamente do Flamengo, de 2011, derrotado apenas na 17ª rodada. O Timão passa pelas 17 primeiras em 2017 sem perder no Brasileirão. Ao todo, o time está invicto há 32 jogos, na segunda maior sequência da história do clube, atrás das 37 partidas em 1957.

A diferença na liderança pode diminuir, já que o Grêmio recebe o Santos a partir das 19h. O Timão, com 41 pontos, pode conquistar o Troféu Osmar Santos, dado pelo LANCE! ao vencedor do primeiro turno, caso o Tricolor gaúcho não vença o Peixe.

O Flamengo, por sua vez, apesar da grande atuação no segundo tempo, perdeu o quarto lugar da tabela para o Palmeiras. Ambos agora têm 29 pontos.

O Corinthians dominou o jogo nos primeiros minutos. O placar era para ter sido aberto aos 12, mas o árbitro Ricardo Marques Ribeiro, influenciado pelo assistente Pablo Almeida da Costa, anulou de forma absurda um gol de Jô. O atacante do Timão recebeu cruzamento de Maycon três metros atrás da linha da bola.

Não demorou muito para Jô balançar a rede novamente e igualar-se na artilharia do Brasileirão, com os mesmos dez gols que Lucca. No duelo que colocou frente a frente dois jogadores que estão na mira de Tite para a próxima convocação da Seleção Brasileira, o atacante recebeu linda bola de Balbuena e levou a melhor sobre Diego Alves, que fez sua estreia pelo Flamengo e demorou a pular na bola.

Após o gol, o Corinthians começou a fazer o jogo que mais gosta: ficou fechado, sem dar chances ao Flamengo, e tentou sair em contra-ataques. Nem a aproximação de Diego com Everton Ribeiro fez o Rubro-Negro ter chances claras.

No segundo tempo, porém, o cenário mudou, principalmente por conta das entradas de Willian Arão e depois Berrío. Cássio, outro que está no radar de Tite, salvou o Timão após cabeçada de Juan. Mas o goleiro do Timão nada pôde fazer aos 25 minutos: Réver aproveitou escorada de Juan e mandou de voleio.

O Flamengo mostrou que não se contentava com o empate em Itaquera e foi para cima do Corinthians. Era pressão pelo alto e por baixo. Diego perdeu chance inacreditável, Pedro Henrique cabeceou contra na trave, o Timão ainda respondeu com Jô parando em Diego Alves… Apesar de o gol não ter saído, foi um ótimo final de um grande jogo!

South Africa aim to break mirror image

A preview of the third one-day international between South Africa and Australia in Cape Town

Cricinfo staff09-Apr-2009Match factsWayne Parnell was a surprise success story in Centurion•Associated Press

April 9, 2009
Start time 2.30pm (12.30GMT)Big PictureTwo one-sided contests in the first two matches, one to Australia and one to South Africa, means it’s impossible to predict what will happen from game to game. With each alternating result the No. 1 ODI ranking has switched hands and it’s starting to look like a booby prize that neither side wants to hold on to. But the individual matches mean little in terms of the ranking – whichever team wins the series finishes on top.The most notable feature of the results has been the way the series in South Africa has mirrored the contest in Australia. On both tours the visitors won the first two Tests before losing the third; on both tours the hosts triumphed in the two Twenty20 internationals; and on both tours the visiting team won the opening ODI and then lost the second. If the trend continues, Australia are destined to round out their trip with three more ODI wins just as Johan Botha’s men did in Australia in January.Form guide (last five ODIs, most recent first)South Africa WLWWW
Australia LWNWW
Watch out forThe biggest surprise out of the Centurion match was how dangerous Wayne Parnell can be with the new ball. His early swing and accuracy was the key reason Australia’s top order collapsed and he was named the Man of the Match in his second one-day international. As a left-armer he adds variety to an already dangerous South African attack and he has the potential to be a useful allrounder, although his batting is yet to be seen at international level.Another fresh face in this series is Callum Ferguson, who is only six matches into his ODI career but already is building a reputation as Australia’s middle-order stabiliser. He was the only one of the specialist batsmen to shine in Centurion, where his 50 saved Australia from an even more embarrassing result, and he performed a similar steadying role against New Zealand at the Gabba. The mature, level-headed approach is a positive sign as Australia go through some enforced restructuring of their batting line-up.Team newsGiven his powerful record in Cape Town, Makhaya Ntini will come into the calculations for South Africa but it’s hard to see where he can fit into a side whose attack was so dominant in the previous game. The South Africans also sprung a surprise in Centurion by dropping Hashim Amla despite his recent strong one-day form. But again, it’s difficult to justify changes to a team that has just won a match with nearly half its overs remaining.South Africa squad Graeme Smith (capt), Herschelle Gibbs, Hashim Amla, AB de Villiers, Jacques Kallis, JP Duminy, Vaughn van Jaarsveld, Mark Boucher (wk), Roelof van der Merwe, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Johan Botha, Dale Steyn, Wayne Parnell, Makhaya Ntini.Australia were considering changes to the side that went down by seven wickets in Centurion, although they were waiting until seeing the Newlands pitch on the morning of the game before making a decision. The bowlers didn’t disgrace themselves in the second match – they barely had a chance to – so Brett Geeves could struggle to force his way in. But after such a dismal batting display Marcus North and Cameron White will be mentioned as potential middle-order replacements.Australia squad Michael Clarke, Brad Haddin (wk), Ricky Ponting (capt), Michael Hussey, David Hussey, Callum Ferguson, Marcus North, James Hopes, Cameron White, Mitchell Johnson, Nathan Hauritz, Brett Geeves, Nathan Bracken, Ben Laughlin.Stats and TriviaOn Australia’s last tour of South Africa in 2005-06 they were routed for 93 in the ODI at Newlands, where Makhaya Ntini took 6 for 22Ricky Ponting didn’t play that match and only three of Australia’s current touring party took part: Michael Clarke, Michael Hussey and Nathan BrackenNtini, who may or may not play, has featured in 10 ODIs at Newlands and has a remarkable record of 27 wickets at 10.14 at the venueQuotes”It’s been a hard three or four months against Australia and it’s been really competitive. Hopefully, starting tomorrow, we can turn things around and change the hoodoo.”

Everton linked to Marcus Thuram

Everton have been linked with a move for Borussia Monchengladbach attacker Marcus Thuram as new manager Rafa Benitez looks to bolster his forward line.

What’s the story?

According to Italian outlet CalcioMercato, the Toffees are one of three sides interested in signing the highly-rated 24-year-old over the coming months, with Borussia Dortmund and Inter also listed as potential suitors.

With just two years remaining on his current contract, Thuram could be available for a reduced price next summer if Everton are prepared to wait that long.

Everton could finally replace Lukaku

After arriving on German shores back in 2019, Thuram has established himself as one of the Bundesliga’s most exciting young stars.

In his 40 appearances for Monchengladbach last season, the £25.2m-rated gem bagged 11 goals and provided a further 12 assists in all competitions, but his contributions didn’t stop there.

He also created four big chances for his teammates, as well as taking an average of two shots and making 0.6 key passes per game.

These returns saw teammate Denis Zakaria brand Thuram a “phenomenal” talent and earned him a seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.91, ranking him as Monchengladbach’s tenth-best performer in the top flight of German football.

The versatile striker also impressed during his brief appearance for France at Euro 2020, making one key pass, completing one dribble and winning one duel in the 3-3 draw with Switzerland, with his display earning a SofaScore match rating of 7.2.

His impressive performances for club and country led to Movistar commentator Alain Valnegri telling El Pais that Thuram reminded him of Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku, saying: “He can be dominant and allow him to act as an offensive terminal, Lukaku style.”

A serious knee injury has limited Thuram to just 46 minutes of action in the current campaign, though, and he’s set to be sidelined until the new year, making a January move a potentially risky one.

Nevertheless, Everton’s hierarchy must sanction a move for the youngster, adding some much-needed strength in depth to Benitez’s attacking options and potentially finding their next Lukaku in the process.

And, in other news…Everton increasingly likely to sign £187k-p/w gem, fans surely buzzing
