Mesmo sem ser titular, Nenê é o maior garçom do São Paulo em 2019

MatériaMais Notícias

O ataque do São Paulo em 2019 não tem feito um bom papel, tanto é que está entre os piores em comparação com os outros clubes de Série A, no entanto, em meio à escassez de gols, alguns jogadores se destacam pela quantidade de vezes em que contribuem para esse artigo raro no ano tricolor, que colocar a bola na rede. E o atleta com mais participações em tentos da equipe até aqui é Nenê, que também é o maior garçom do elenco, mas tem futuro indefinido.

Não tem sido fácil comemorar um gol do São Paulo nesta temporada, são 28 até a pausa para a Copa América, somando aqueles marcados na Florida Cup. Nenhum jogador do elenco tem mais do que quatro tentos, Hernanes e Pablo são os artilheiros máximos do time. Em termos de assistências, porém, Nenê chegou a cinco contra o Atlético-MG e lidera o quesito entre os companheiros.

O meia-atacante, que fez 19 jogos e apenas cinco como titular na temporada, é o atleta com mais participações em gols são-paulino neste ano. Além das cinco assistências já citadas, ele fez um gol na Florida Cup, ou seja, dos 28 tentos anotados pela equipe em 2019, ele participou de seis: 21,4% do total. Reinaldo, Pablo e Hernanes estão logo atrás com cinco contribuições cada um.

Apesar desses números, Nenê tem futuro incerto no São Paulo. Neste ano ele quase foi negociado com o Fluminense, e recentemente teve seu nome ligado ao Goiás. Nos bastidores, há quem diga que o meia já esteve mais próximo de sair, mas não se descarta a possibilidade de troca de clube. Contra o Atlético-MG, ele foi elogiado por Alexandre Pato, após assistência para gol.​

​- Mudou (no segundo tempo) que o Nenê entrou, e é um cara que consegue colocar a bola ali na frente, aproxima mais. Criamos mais. Temos que trabalhar a bola, o São Paulo tem muita qualidade. O Nenê é um cara que dá muita qualidade para o time, um cara rodado, que tem o passe. Fico feliz (pelo gol). É a segunda bola que ele consegue me achar. Uma eu chutei na trave, hoje fiz o gol – afirmou o camisa 7 do Tricolor.

Embora conte com a admiração de um dos principais jogadores do elenco, Nenê não goza do mesmo prestígio com a comissão técnica. Ele ainda não foi titular da equipe sob o comando de Vagner Mancini e Cuca. Seus jogos entre os onze iniciais aconteceram com André Jardine, ainda no começo do Paulistão e da Copa Libertadores. Desde que Cuca assumiu, o camisa 10 atuou em seis partidas, por apenas 127 minutos. Mesmo assim, seu discurso é de quem entende a contribuição que precisa dar.

– Fico feliz por ter participado do gol. Todos que estão aqui tem condição para entrar e mudar um jogo. Quem está no São Paulo tem qualidade, mas tem que ter na cabeça que pode ajudar – declarou após o empate com o Atlético-MG.

O São Paulo se reapresenta na próxima segunda-feira, no CT da Barra Funda, após os dias de folga dados pela comissão técnica em decorrência da pausa para a Copa América. Os treinos serão retomados de olho no clássico contra o Palmeiras, no dia 13 de julho, às 19h, no Morumbi.

Veja os jogadores com mais participações em gols do São Paulo em 2019:

Nenê – 6 participações (5 assistências e 1 gol)
​Pablo – 5 participações (1 assistência e 4 gols)
​Hernanes – 5 participações (1 assistências e 4 gols)
Reinaldo – 5 participações (4 assistências e 1 gol)​

Injured Zaheer out of season

A round-up of IPL news on May 6, 2014

ESPNcricinfo staff06-May-2014

Zaheer Khan will miss Mumbai Indians’ clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore•BCCI

Zaheer to miss rest of the season
After five successive defeats this season, Mumbai Indians finally ended their streak with a five-wicket win against Kings XI Punjab on Saturday. However, the much-needed victory came at a cost, as Mumbai lost their strike bowler Zaheer Khan to a muscle strain and will have to do without the seamer’s services for the rest of the season.”Zaheer will surely be missed,” Rohit Sharma, the Mumbai captain wrote in his column for . “His injury doesn’t look too good at this stage and it’s a terrible blow for us as he was consistently getting us those crucial early breakthroughs.”Mumbai’s head coach John Wright had earlier confirmed that Zaheer had strained his left latissinus dorsi muscle, and that he would be undergoing a “thorough medical assessment”.Faulkner aces death-bowling test
Since being smashed for consecutive sixes by Darren Sammy in the last over against West Indies in the World T20 in March, James Faulkner has emerged as something of a specialist death bowler for Rajasthan Royals. After scripting a stunning Super Over-win against Kolkata Knight Riders in Abu Dhabi, Faulkner once again held his nerve at the death against the same opponents in Ahmedabad to help the team to a 10-run victory.”Personally, I just try to pick the best batsman in our team, preferably the one that generally bats at the death and is used to facing yorkers, slower ones and slower bouncers,” Faulkner told when asked how he prepared for bowling at the death. “Some players don’t like the straight yorkers, while some cannot reach the wide yorkers. A lot of it comes down to luck – an edge here and there can fly to the fence. It also depends on whether you are setting a target or chasing it.”You are always going to have nerves and feel the pressure in such situations. Good players overcome them better than the ordinary ones do. You need to block the crowd out, which is not as easy as people think it is. But if you can do that and concentrate on taking in the field what you have done in the nets, it really helps.”Learning a lot from Duminy – Jadhav
Kedar Jadhav has attributed his successful transformation into a finisher for Delhi Daredevils this year to his team-mate JP Duminy. Despite having limited opportunities to score since he bats lower down the order, Jadhav, who was the highest run-getter in last season’s Ranji Trophy, has been unbeaten in his last three innings, and added 58 off just 34 balls with Duminy to propel Daredevils to a formidable 178 against Chennai Super Kings on Monday.”I am getting to learn a lot from Duminy. He is very calm during any chase or while batting first to post a total,” Jadhav told . “It is fun to bat with him. The left-right combination helps both of us while batting together. There is a lot to learn from how he approaches the game under pressure.”Laxman lauds special de Villiers innings
Not many would back a team to chase down 28 off 12 balls when Dale Steyn is bowling one of those two overs. But Royal Challengers Bangalore did just that, as AB de Villiers hit his South Africa team-mate for 24 runs in the penultimate over to hand Sunrisers Hyderabad a fourth defeat of the season, causing even the Sunrisers’ mentor VVS Laxman to laud the batsman’s 41-ball 80 as “one of the best innings” in the shortest format.”It’s very disappointing,” Laxman told . “If you see, most part of the game we were dominating but again one special innings from one special player changed everything. It’s one of the best innings you would see in T20 format because you have to be mindful that the wickets were falling at the other end.”It was not that he was having a partnership with other batsmen at the other end. I think it’s a phenomenal batting display and he took the game away from us.”

Notts capable of further glory

ESPNcricinfo considers Nottinghamshire’s prospects for the 2014 season

David Hopps31-Mar-2014

Peter Siddle and Stuart Broad may now be occasional (very occasional) team-mates at Notts•AFP

Nottinghamshire
Last year 7th, CC Div 1; QF, FLt20; Champions, YB40.2013 in a nutshell
Promise finally turned into fulfilment for Nottinghamshire in 2013. They won their first piece of Lord’s silverware since 1989 when they dispensed with Glamorgan in the final of YB40 at Lord’s. The demolition of Somerset in the semifinal showed the prowess of the team, and once their England pair, Graeme Swann and Stuart Broad, were made available for the final, their extra firepower was doubly apparent, even if it took a 99-run stand between Chris Read and David Hussey to remove their jitters. A captain given to repeated rescue acts joining forces with a long-serving overseas player about to end his 10-year association with the county: it was an appropriate alliance.Delight at taking the YB40 trophy made up for the shock of a heavy defeat at Trent Bridge against Essex in the Twenty20 quarterfinal. It was in this competition where Notts seemed most likely to strut their stuff, but they suffered a third consecutive quarterfinal defeat after conceding their highest total of the season and then succumbing to a hat-triuck by Shaun Tait.A squad increasingly devised for limited-overs cricket was unimpressive in the Championship. A dismal display against Durham handed the hosts the Championship trophy at Chester-le-Street and plunged Notts into a late relegation battle with their closest rivals Derbyshire. Hussey’s farewell against Somerset ensured they survived, but they deserved to do so sheepishly.Michael Lumb, James Taylor and Samit Patel with the bat and Luke Fletcher and Harry Gurney with the ball had decent Championship seasons, but there was little else to admire. The lack of a frontline spinner was a glaring weakness. Alex Hales’ Championship average of 14 after he was refused the chance to play IPL questioned both his aptitude and appetite for long-form cricket.2014 prospects
Notts can anticipate a decent season. They should press in both limited-overs competitions and should not dice with relegation to the extent they did last season. They have long established themselves as the powerful force in the East Midlands, thanks to intelligent development of Trent Bridge and shrewd use of cricket’s low-key transfer market and that is not about to change.Crucially, they have switched to an overseas bowler this season, and an indefatigable one, too, in the Australian Peter Siddle. That is a sensible switch of emphasis as their bowling attack has long been overly reliant on Andre Adams whose first-class career must be reaching an end. Andy Pick has other good material to work with: a fit Luke Fletcher can make a robust contribution and Harry Gurney is a left-armer with a growing reputation, enough to get him a guest spot on England’s one-day tour of the West Indies.The departure of David Hussey puts more pressure on the batting, and it leaves the onus on Alex Hales, in particular, to pay more serious attention to his technique and work to establish himself as an adaptable cricketer in all formats. An experimental move down the order in Championship cricket might be worth considering.Key player
Michael Lumb lifted Notts’ spirits by quelling talk that he might turn freelance and committing his future to the county, stating: “I’ve played in the IPL and I feel as though I’ve ticked that off my list. If Lumb can have a late flowering in county cricket, and solve at least half of Notts’ perennial issues at the top of the order in the Championship, that is half the problem solved. If he can carry Hales with him, even better, although Trent Bridge’s demanding batting conditions make that far from automatic.Bright young thing
Harry Gurney’s reputation began to blossom in 2013 when he finished the Championship season as Nottinghamshire’s leading wicket-taker, taking 44 wickets at 30, enough to catch the eye of the England management who invited him to pre-Ashes nets along with another left-arm quick, Tymal Mills, to prepare England for an expected onslaught from Mitchell Johnson. If that did not work our so well, the bowler himself is capable of more good things.Captain/coach
Chris Read retains the captaincy in the Championship, but there is a new face in charge in one-day cricket – James Taylor, a rueful admission perhaps that his attempts to force his way into England’s Test side have so far been largely unsuccessful. Mick Newell remains as coach, but the most intriguing addition to the coaching staff comes in the formidable figure of Andy Pick, who returns as bowling coach after an unedifying experience as high performance manager for the USA Cricket Association.ESPNcricinfo verdict
Notts are capable of reaching at least one-day final and are capable of some entertaining cricket in the Championship which can carry them into the top half of the table. If the signing of Siddle can be allied to improvements from the rest of the attack under Pick’s tutelage, there could be plenty of smiles at Trent Bridge. Just don’t give them too many slow turners.

أسطورة ليفربول: محمد صلاح مصري ومسلم وسينتقل إلى السعودية خلال أيام

يعتقد أسطورة نادي ليفربول، جرايم سونيس، أن جناح وهداف الريدز الحالي، محمد صلاح، سينتقل إلى الدوري السعودي خلال الأيام القليلة المقبلة.

ويريد نادي اتحاد جدة ضم محمد صلاح من ليفربول بعرض مادي وصل إلى 200 مليون يورو، ورغم رفض ليفربول إلا أن سونيس يتوقع رحيل المصري الدولي.

وتحدث سونيس عن رحيل محمد صلاح عن ليفربول، وقال: “يجب أن أقول إنني قلق من خسارة ليفربول لهذا اللاعب ورحيله إلى السعودية”.

وتابع: “أعتقد أن انتقال محمد صلاح إلى الدوري السعودي سيتحقق في الخمسة أيام المقبلة قبل غلق سوق الانتقالات هناك”.

وأضاف: “مو مصري ومسلم وسيذهب إلى مسقط رأس الإسلام وإلى بلد له حدود مع مصر ليتنقل بحرية”.

وواصل تصريحاته: “دعونا نتذكر أيضًا أنه انتقل بين أكثر من نادٍ، لعب لخمسة أندية خلال 13 عامًا، كان في ليفربول لمدة 6 سنوات، ولم يعد شابًا، فهو يفكر بأنه قام بواجبه تجاه النادي وفاز ببطولة الدوري الإنجليزي ودوري أبطال أوروبا”.

واستمر: “هناك أيضًا تفكير في المال، وفي هذا السن، لا يعتقد بالتأكيد أنه في وضع يسمح له بزيادة راتبه في الفترة القليلة المقبلة بنسبة 10 إلى 20% في ليفربول”.

وشدد: “يمكن أن يطلب محمد صلاح ما يريد وسيلبي المسئولون السعوديون طلباته لأنه اللاعب الذي يرغبون في ضمه أكثر من أي شخص آخر”.

وأكمل: “كمشجع لنادي ليفربول، أفضل ما يمكن تمنيه هو استمرار اللاعب لموسم آخر، لأن رحيله سيتسبب في مشكلة للفريق، مع عدم قدرة النادي على دفع مبالغ كبيرة لتعويضه”.

وأتم: “سيكون من الصعب العثور على لاعب يمكنه تسجيل 20 هدفًا في الدوري الإنجليزي، كما هو الحال مع هاري كين، ربما يستطيعون إقناعه بالبقاء وآمل ذلك، ولكن إذا كنت سأراهن على مستقبله، فلن يبقى لاعبًا في ليفربول لمدة طويلة”.

Abdur Rehman barred for three illegal full-tosses

Abdur Rehman, the Pakistan left-arm spinner, was barred from bowling in the Asia Cup match against Bangladesh before he had delivered a legal ball

Abdur Rehman (right) had bizarre bowling figures of 0-0-8-0•AFP

Abdur Rehman, the Pakistan left-arm spinner, was barred from bowling in the Asia Cup match against Bangladesh before he had delivered a legal ball. Rehman was brought on in the 11th over and delivered three consecutive full tosses above the waist, forcing umpire Johan Cloete to take him off. Rehman finished with figures of 0-0-8-0.According to the ICC’s playing conditions for ODIs, a bowler will be banned from the attack if he delivers more than one full toss above the waist.Rehman’s first delivery to Imrul Kayes slipped out of his hand, ending up high and wide outside off stump, and umpire Cloete called it a no-ball. His second delivery was straighter and chest high. Kayes pulled off the front foot but was caught at deep midwicket. The on-field umpires asked Kayes to wait and replays confirmed it was a second no-ball.Umpire Cloete had a word with Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq and, showing leniency, let Rehman continue. He immediately delivered a third high full toss, which Anamul Haque pulled to the midwicket boundary. Umpire Cloete called Misbah over and told him Rehman could not continue, after which Fawad Alam completed the over.Rehman had been brought in for this game as a replacement for Junaid Khan, who was rested.The MCC’s Laws make a distinction between dangerous and unfair bowling from a fast bowler and a spinner, with regard to full tosses. While fast bowlers are not permitted to bowl full tosses above waist height, the law is more lenient for a spinner, because of the less dangerous pace, and only deliveries above the shoulder are deemed dangerous and unfair.”A slow delivery which passes or would have passed on the full above shoulder height of the striker standing upright at the popping crease is to be deemed dangerous and unfair, whether or not it is likely to inflict physical injury on the striker,” according to Law 42.6.b.The ICC’s playing conditions for ODIs, however, supersede the MCC’s Laws for international cricket and according to them fast bowlers and spinners are treated the same. A bowler is warned after his first waist-high full toss, and barred from bowling if he bowls a second.

ديلي ميل: فيفا يسعى إلى إيقاف روبياليس 15 عامًا بسبب تصرفه المشين

يسعى الاتحاد الدولي لكرة القدم، فيفا، إلى اتخاذ عقوبة صارمة ضد رئيس الاتحاد الإسباني لويس روبياليس في ظل التصرف المشين الذي قام به مؤخرًا ضد اللاعبة جيني هيرموسو.

كان روبياليس قد قام بتقبيل هيرموسو على فمها، دون إذن منها، خلال احتفالات منتخب إسبانيا بالتتويج بكأس العالم للسيدات يوم 20 أغسطس.

وقرر فيفا، يوم السبت الماضي، إيقاف روبياليس عن العمل لمدة 90 يومًا وذلك كإجراء مؤقت في إطار التحقيق معه.

ووفقًا لما ذكرته صحيفة “ديلي ميل” الإنجليزية، فإن فيفا يسعى إلى منع روبياليس من ممارسة أي نشاط يتعلق بلعبة لكرة القدم، لمدة 15 عامًا.

وأوضحت أن الفيفا يضغط من أجل فرض حظر على روبياليس لمدة تصل إلى 15 عامًا، وهو الحد الأقصى الذي تسمح به قوانينه.

وأفادت إنه في حال الطعن ضد ذلك الحكم، من قِبل الاتحاد الإسباني، فإن فيفا ينوي اتخاذ إجراءات ضد المنتخبات والأندية الوطنية الإسبانية.

 

Time complicado e com artilheiro: como Verdão vê o Sampaio Corrêa

MatériaMais Notícias

O Palmeiras ganhou a condição de se classificar às quartas de final da Copa do Brasil necessitando só de um empate nesta quinta-feira, no Allianz Parque. Mas a vantagem ocorreu graças a uma vitória por 1 a 0 com gol no fim do confronto ida, no Maranhão, em falha do goleiro Andrey na cobrança de falta de Moisés. Uma prova de que o Sampaio Corrêa merece respeito, segundo os comandados de Luiz Felipe Scolari. Principalmente o atacante Salatiel.

Com quatro gols, ele é o artilheiro da Série C do Campeonato Brasileiro, na qual a equipe de São Luis lidera o grupo A, em campanha invicta, com 11 pontos somados em 15 disputados. Na semana passada, Salatiel ainda foi quem mais finalizou entre os que atuaram: três vezes (uma certa), enquanto o time todo do Verdão teve cinco finalizações (duas certas), segundo o Footstats.

– O Salatiel é um atacante muito bom. Deu um pouco de trabalho para mim e para o Edu, tenho de ser sincero. Só que trabalhamos bastante para que não só o Sampaio Corrêa, mas qualquer um que jogue contra nós tenha as jogadas neutralizadas, seja no ataque ou cobranças de falta ensaiadas. Estaremos bem preparados para fazer uma ótima partida – avisou Antônio Carlos.

O zagueiro pode ser um dos escolhidos em uma provável formação mista, com alguns dos principais jogadores em meio a uma escalação com atletas menos utilizados pelo técnico Luiz Felipe Scolari. Contudo, independentemente de quem seja escolhido, a ordem é manter o estilo de marcação agressiva, evitando deixar o rival jogar, um dos segredos para a equipe estar sem sofrer gols há seis partidas consecutivas, vencendo todas elas.

– Não podemos mudar o que temos feito desde o ano passado: a nossa pegada desde o início do jogo, marcando o adversário em cima. O mais importante é respeitar o Sampaio Corrêa, mas se impor dentro de campo, como o professor Felipão sempre diz – indicou Antônio Carlos, elogiando o adversário desta noite.

– O Sampaio Corrêa é um time muito bom. Criou dificuldades para nós, no Maranhão. Tem nosso total respeito. Temos um resultado favorável, mas sabemos que será um jogo muito difícil. Precisamos fazer valer o fator casa – reforçou o zagueiro.

O regulamento da Copa do Brasil não aponta os gols como visitante entre os critérios de desempate. Por isso, a disputa irá para os pênaltis somente se o Sampaio Corrêa vencer por um gol de diferença, garantindo vaga direto no tempo normal com uma vitória maior. Qualquer outro resultado dará a classificação para o Palmeiras.

West Ham set for Benoît Badiashile bid

Taking to Twitter, Foot Mercato reporter Santi Aouna has broken some exciting transfer news out of West Ham United involving AS Monaco defender Benoît Badiashile.

The Lowdown: Moyes eyeing new defender…

Irons manager David Moyes is thought to be prioritising moves for new defensive additions as things stand amid the club’s current injury situation.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/west-ham-latest-updates/” title=”West Ham latest updates!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

A new left-back and a central defender are firmly on the radar, with links recently emerging to the likes of Lucas Digne, Nathaniel Phillips, Nathan Ake and James Tarkowski (ExWHUemployee).

It is also thought that the club and recruitment chief Rob Newman will cast their net far and wide, specifically to Ligue 1, with that division in particular seen as a real crop for talent (ExWHUemployee).

Sharing news on a French top flight sensation on West Ham’s radar, Foot Mercato journalist Aouna has shared some exciting transfer news.

The Latest: Aouna shares exciting news…

According to the reporter’s sources, West Ham are now ‘expected’ to make an offer for the 20-year-old as contact is made with the player’s entourage.

He explained on Twitter: “West Ham and Newcastle are interested in Benoît Badiashile. Contact made with Monaco and the player’s entourage. West Ham is expected to make an offer.”

The Verdict: Get it done

Badishile stands out as one of the most promising young defenders in Europe, even drawing comparisons with France international Raphael Varane.

Still young and with plenty of years ahead of him in his career, the Monaco defender would also come to east London with real potential for sell-on value, and he already possesses a wealth of experience at the top level.

Having played more than 100 senior matches already in his career, it’s little wonder Aouna has claimed that the 20-year-old is now top of West Ham’s transfer shortlist.
