Com time alternativo e com a volta de Rodrigo Nestor e Gabriel Sara, Ceni afirmou que considerou um jogo disputado e ressaltou que as substituições feitas a partir do segundo tempo foram significativas para a equipe.

Ceni ressaltou que as trocas feitas foram importantes para a movimentação da partida. Com um elenco alternativo, Jandrei ficou de fora após sentir um incômodo estomacal no vestiário, dando espaço para Volpi no gol. Porém, a equipe entrou sem goleiro reserva em campo. Além disso, Luan, que estava afastado desde outubro de 2021 por conta de uma lesão, passou a ter mais minutos em campo. O atleta voltou a jogar contra o Ayacucho, na primeira partida do São Paulo na Sula.

-Teve um jogador que ficou muito tempo fora, que foi o Luan, jogou 50 minutos no outro jogo, eu queria dar oportunidade para ele, a gente tem que analisar, ver como o jogador rende. Eu tinha o Colorado para fazer essa função, mas como eu queria colocar Sara e Nestor, eu preferi para não fazer uma terceira troca, preferi baixar o Igor, colocar o Nestor mais próximo do 9, do Rigoni, manter o Talles na posição, depois abri o Talles e coloquei o Sara do lado que ele mais gosta de jogar, do lado esquerdo. Ficou Sara, Nestor, Talles, Igor Gomes, Rigoni e Calleri na frente. Infelizmente, existe um elenco muito numeroso. Hoje tivemos o problema do gol, entregamos a lista para a Conmebol, faltando 1h30 para o jogo, e Jandrei relatou que estava passando mal – explicou.

O São Paulo volta a campo no próximo domingo (17), contra o Flamengo, às 16h. A partida será disputada no Maracanã e será válida pela segunda rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro.

da dobrowin： Leeds United supporters will be hoping that the wave of new signings that have entered through the door this summer gel well with the rest of the team moving forward, as a horror start to the new Championship season gets pushed firmly to one side.

da realbet： Already, the signs have been positive, with new loanee Manor Solomon assisting Mateo Joseph's clever strike to break the deadlock versus Hull City last time out, whilst both Largie Ramazani and Ao Tanaka also impressed from off the bench.

Daniel Farke will just be keeping everything crossed that none of his new buys end up becoming notable flops in West Yorkshire down the line, like Helder Costa ended up being, after costing the Whites an eye-watering £16m to purchase permanently back in 2020.

Helder Costa's career at Leeds

Initially impressing Marcelo Bielsa and Victor Orta during Leeds' triumphant promotion season, the Whites would break the bank to land Costa when moving up to the Premier League, which would then turn out to be a colossal waste of money.

The Angola international would help himself to four goals and six assists from 43 Championship clashes during the 2019/20 season, before finding his minutes lessen in the top flight, with only 22 games handed to him in the Premier League.

By the time the 2021/22 season rolled around, Costa had fallen way down the pecking order, with loans out to Valencia and Al-Ittihad delaying his eventual permanent exit from Elland Road.

It's not as if the Whites dud was on a cheap wage either, with his pay packet during his final campaign with the club coming in at a high £32.5k-per-week, as per Capology, which saw him rake in more than the likes of Wilfried Gnonto, Crysencio Summerville and other key first-teamers in the process.

The expensive former Leeds man did have moments of magic like the strike above against Fulham up his sleeve, but these sublime goals were very rare to come by towards the end of his stint in West Yorkshire, with Costa's time in England finally ending last year when Portuguese outfit G.D. Estoril Praia snapped him up.

His once staggering £16m valuation has since plummeted, however, with the ex-Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker's price tag now far less.

Helder Costa's transfer value in 2024

According to Football Transfers, Costa's value has taken a considerable hit, with the ex-Leeds number 17's estimated worth now standing at a meagre £750k.

The 30-year-old forward hasn't helped his own cause by managing no goals or assists from his first four games donning an Estoril strip, as his career continues to peter out even when he's far away from Leeds.

It's not as if this has been a sudden decline for Costa, however, with his value decreasing at a rapid pace year after year, with £8m falling off his price tag just 365 days into his doomed Whites career.

Wolves will just feel glad that they managed to offload their former attacker to Leeds, knowing that he could well have flopped at Molineux instead of Elland Road, after once costing the Old Gold an extortionate £13m in 2017.

It's no real shock that Costa isn't held in high regard by those with associations to Leeds now, but former Leeds man Noel Whelan ripped into the overpriced dud when he was still struggling at the club, labelling him a "massive flop" in 2021 when speaking to Football Insider.

Farke will pray that the likes of Ramazani and Tanaka aren't spoken about in a similar scathing manner at any stage during their stays in England, as Leeds look forward to Championship football kicking off again after the international break is up.

ظهر مدرب ليفربول آرني سلوت في مؤتمر صحفي اليوم الجمعة، للحديث قبل المباراة أمام وست هام، وطغى الحديث عن محمد صلاح على المؤتمر، بعدما جدد المصري عقده مع الفريق الإنجليزي.

وأعلن ليفربول صباح اليوم الجمعة، عن تجديد عقد محمد صلاح حتى 30 يونيو 2027.

وأعرب سلوت، عن سعادته البالغة بتمديد عقد النجم المصري محمد صلاح لعامين إضافيين، مؤكدًا أن هذه الخطوة تعكس الطموح الكبير للنادي، وتمنح دفعة قوية للفريق والمشجعين معًا.

وقال سلوت في تصريحات لوسائل الإعلام خلال مؤتمره الصحفي: “أنا سعيد بالتأكيد، صلاح أظهر قيمته للنادي لسنوات متتالية، وكل من في الفريق، سواء الجماهير أو زملاءه، سعداء بتجديده لعامين إضافيين”.

وعن شعور الارتياح الجماهيري بعد الإعلان، أضاف: “أظن أن الجماهير تشعر بالارتياح، خصوصًا أن محمد صلاح كان بإمكانه، كلاعب حر، أن يذهب لأي نادٍ يريده، لكن بالنسبة لي كنت على علم مبكر بأن الأمور تسير في الاتجاه الصحيح”.

وأشاد سلوت بجهود الإدارة، وخاصة المدير الرياضي ريتشارد هيوز، في إتمام الصفقة، قائلًا: “يستحق ريتشارد كل التحية، لأن بقاء نجم بحجم صلاح يتطلب مجهودًا كبيرًا وأموالًا، لكن الأهم هو أن صلاح نفسه يؤمن بما نبنيه، ويؤمن أن القادم أفضل، وهذا أهم مكسب لنا”.

وأكد المدرب أن صلاح ليس مجرد لاعب كبير بل إنسان متواضع وملتزم، قائلًا: “أولًا، لطالما حُكم عليه كلاعب، لكنني أراه أيضًا إنسانًا، فهو متواضع، يعمل بجد ويبذل جهدًا كبيرًا ليصبح اللاعب الذي هو عليه”.

وتابع: “يُواصل هذا الجهد كل يوم، يُمكنه تسجيل الأهداف حتى لو لم يكن في أفضل حالاته خلال نصف ساعة أو 15 دقيقة، ولهذا السبب يتمتع بقوة ذهنية كبيرة، يجب أن يكون قويًا ذهنيًا، وبغض النظر عن الأمور الأخرى، ربما يكون هذا ما يميزه بالنسبة لي”.

وعن دوره في تجديد العقد، أوضح سلوت: “أنا جزء من العملية، لكن لا أستحق الإشادة، الفضل يعود لصلاح، ووكيله، وإدارة النادي، جميعهم بذلوا الجهد، وهذا يعني المال! ولكن أيضًا الجهد، تجديده يعكس طموح النادي الكبير ورغبته في الحفاظ على مستواه التنافسي”.

وإذا كان تجديد عقد محمد صلاح دفعة قوية لليفربول، أشار: “أفضل ألا أنسى ما حدث سابقًا، فنحن متقدمون بفارق 11 نقطة! نشارك في أصعب دوري منذ 10 سنوات بالنظر إلى الفرق التي لا تزال في أوروبا، لذا أرجو ألا ينسى مشجعونا وجمهورنا روعة ما قدمناه حتى الآن”.

وأكمل: “خسرنا أمام باريس سان جيرمان في واحدة من أفضل المباريات التي شاركت فيها على الإطلاق، لذا أريدنا أن نتذكر ما قدمناه، يمكننا أن نستعيد ثمانية أو تسعة أشهر من الأداء الرائع، في المتوسط، كانت الأداءات الفردية والجماعية رائعة للغاية”.

واستطرد: “نسعى دائمًا لتحقيق المزيد، ولكن في ليفربول، تكون في قمة طاقتك، لذا لا مجال للتطور، لكننا نسعى جاهدين لتحقيق الكمال، يمكننا الوصول إلى التميز في طريقنا إذا لم نكن مثاليين، صلاح واضح تمامًا أنه يقترب من نهاية قدراته، وليس مسيرته، لقد استفدنا من إمكانياته القصوى هذا الموسم، ثم يتعلق الأمر بالاستمرارية، وهو أصعب شيء في كرة القدم”.

واعتبر سلوت أن بقاء صلاح رسالة قوية لبقية اللاعبين ولمن يفكر في الانضمام لليفربول: “صلاح أدّى بمستوى رائع رغم الحديث المستمر عن مستقبله، وهذا في حد ذاته مؤشر إيجابي، بقاء نجم بحجمه يعطي إشارة واضحة: نحن نادٍ طموح ونرغب في تحقيق المزيد”.

وفيما يخص تقييمه لصلاح على أرض الملعب، أفاد: “سواء كان هنا منذ 6 أو 8 سنوات، هو دائمًا حاضر في كل لحظة من المباراة، الجناح في الكرة الحديثة يواجه تحديات مع التكتلات الدفاعية، لكن صلاح لا يزال يمثل تهديدًا كبيرًا لأي خصم، وجوده، إلى جانب دياز وجاكبو، يمنحنا أفضلية هجومية واضحة”.

واختتم سلوت حديثه بالتأكيد على أهمية الحفاظ على الثبات والتطور: “صلاح بلغ أقصى درجات الجودة هذا الموسم، والتحدي القادم هو الاستمرارية، وهي أصعب ما في كرة القدم، لكنه لا يزال في قمة عطائه، ولم يصل بعد لنهاية مشواره”.

da bet7k： Arsenal recorded their second 2-0 victory of the Premier League season, with Mikel Arteta's men beating Unai Emery's Aston Villa side, to take six points from their opening two fixtures.

da aposte e ganhe： One player who stood out, with a goal from the bench, was Leandro Trossard, replacing Gabriel Martinelli who struggled to put his print on the game. Trossard entered the game in the 65th minute, scoring two minutes later to give Arsenal a 1-0 lead.

Trossard made 46 appearances for Arsenal last season in all competitions, scoring 17 goals and providing two assists, whilst alternative left-wing option Gabriel Martinelli made 44 appearances for the Gunners, scoring eight goals and providing five assists.

Arsenal transfer news

According to a recent report from HITC, Arsenal have been offered the chance to sign Chelsea winger Raheem Sterling, after he was told he was 'out of the project' last week.

The player is currently assessing options both in England and abroad, but the 29-year-old is said to prefer a move to an English club, and ideally to stay in London.

Sterling made 43 appearances in all competitions for Chelsea last season, scoring 10 goals, providing eight assists, and totaling 2,771 minutes played.

Sterling vs Martinelli comparison

Sterling, once described as "brilliant" by Jacek Kulig, has struggled since joining the Blues to find his best form, which saw him score 131 goals in 339 appearances for Manchester City.

On FBref's 'similar players' feature, Sterling and Martinelli are actually compared, their stats ranking fairly similarly, with a similar number of minutes and games played.

Stats taken from FBref

The £325k p/w star ranks between Martinelli and Trossard in most metrics, giving you a good indication that whilst each of the Arsenal wingers provides different assets, Sterling could perhaps offer a combination of the two.

Trossard was in hot goal-scoring from last season, backed up by his 0.67 goals per 90 metric, and he started the new campaign as he means to go on, scoring the opener against Villa yesterday.

Martinelli, on the other hand, has been slightly more creative, producing 5.68 progressive carries per 90, averaging 0.25 xAG (expected assists) per 90, and producing 3.92 shot-creating actions per 90.

Sterling outscored Martinelli, with 0.33 goals per 90 (to Martinelli's 0.27), whilst also outperforming Trossard in progressive carries, shot-creating actions, and xAG, further proving that Sterling could add a combination of the goalscoring and creativity output of the current Arsenal duo.

And this is just if Arsenal get this current version of Sterling. If a change of environment could revitalise the English winger, you could see increased numbers in the final third, as he showed in his time at Man City, and this would provide Arteta with a better option than Martinelli on the flank.

While acknowledging areas of improvement still needed after the India series win, coach Boucher also said the players are “growing as cricketers and human beings”

Firdose Moonda24-Jan-2022

South Africa were playing more than just the opposition over the last few summers with matters coming to a head this season after their coach, Mark Boucher, was charged with gross misconduct by Cricket South Africa (CSA). Boucher received his charge sheet – which confirmed CSA will seek his dismissal – on Monday, two days ahead of the ODI series against India that South Africa swept 3-nil.Boucher’s charges relate to historic and current handlings of race issues, which have always been part of South African cricket’s narrative but became even more topical since the Black Lives Matter movement’s resurgence in sport in 2020. Since then, South Africa have appointed their first black African ODI captain, Temba Bavuma, who now outlined the difficulties of being in charge of a team that continues to face issues off the field.Related

CSA will argue in favour of dismissing Boucher at disciplinary hearing

“I don’t think it’s easy (captaining the team). There are a lot of dynamics that you need to manage. For me, the biggest thing is trying to keep cricket the main focus amongst the guys,” Bavuma said. “I hate to bring this up but it’s been a challenging period for the team, for the players, for particular members of management. There’s been a lot of scrutiny surrounding the team and surrounding the organisation, so to manage the conversations happening around the change-room and to ensure our energy is 100% geared towards performing out there, for me, has been the biggest challenge. It has been a big responsibility but has also been a privilege. But it’s not easy.”Bavuma did not name Boucher specifically and when the man himself was asked about the difficulties of coaching a team that is constantly facing off-field pressures, Boucher said: “I can’t answer that. Not now in any case.”ESPNcricinfo understands that Boucher has been advised not to discuss matters related to his disciplinary hearing as it is part of the ongoing investigation. Boucher and his legal team will meet with CSA on Wednesday to outline a timeframe for the hearing, but it is unlikely to begin before South Africa return from their two-Test tour of New Zealand, which starts on February 17. Afrikaans newspaper reported on Sunday that Boucher’s defence will be bankrolled by a group of wealthy businessmen, and though it did not name any of them, billionaire Johann Rupert, an entrepreneur, issued a tweet in support of Boucher earlier in the week.Despite what could be a rocky few months ahead for Boucher personally, he was positive about the development the team has made under his watch to beat India in both the Test and ODI series this season. “The progression has been great,” Boucher said. “We turned the corner a while ago, from a team perspective. We tried a few things in Covid times when we had to get a deeper squad and we gave a lot of opportunities to a lot of players. We are starting to reap the rewards now. It’s all falling into place, which is nice.”While acknowledging areas for improvement, such as the fielding in particular, Boucher said the ingredients in the squad could make a recipe for future success, especially because internally there’s a sense of harmony. “There are always places we can improve. I don’t think our fielding was great. But I like the look of this batting team. I like the balance. We are getting hundreds, and that’s with one or two of those guys out of form. I believe we’ve got a classy top six,” Boucher said. “And now with allrounders, we’ve got a couple that we can look at. We have an environment which is very good. The change-room is a happy change-room and the players are growing as cricketers and human beings.”South Africa will celebrate their twin successes against India, but Boucher said their feet remain “firmly on the ground”, and Bavuma, speaking from both a captaincy and batting perspective, echoed that. “It means a lot as a player. Knowing I contributed to the winning cause makes it better,” he said. “You will always be judged on your record and to convincingly beat an Indian side speaks a lot to my captaincy. But things are still early from a leadership point of view. I will take the positives but I will try very hard not to get ahead of myself.”

Kohli and Pujara started a repair job as India’s lead swelled to 70 by stumps on day two

Andrew Miller12-Jan-20221:21

Manjrekar: ‘The way Agarwal is getting out is worrisome’

Two days done and dusted in a compelling Cape Town contest, and the destiny of a thrillingly fought series remains firmly up for grabs. In battling through to the close with an unbeaten third-wicket stand, Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara overcame the cheap loss of India’s openers to stretch their side into a promising lead of 70. But on another day dominated by high-class fast bowling, it was Jasprit Bumrah’s triumphant return to the scene of his 2018 Test debut that has so far made the crucial difference between the teams.As India target an extraordinary triple-crown of overseas series wins in Australia, England* and now South Africa, Bumrah’s Test career speaks directly to their dramatic transformation away from home (not that their standards on home soil have exactly suffered in recent times). He’s playing his 24th Test out of 27 away from home, and now boasts a stunning haul of 112 wickets at 22.58, including each of his seven five-fors, a tally that no bowler has surpassed since that 2018 debut.After prising out the critical wicket of Dean Elgar in the closing moments of day one, Bumrah was right back on the mark from the moment that play resumed under gleaming blue skies at Newlands – his second ball was a sharp inducker that surged past Aiden Markram’s fatally upraised bat, into the off stump. At 17 for 2, India’s 223 already looked significantly more substantial than at first glance.And so it transpired for the remainder of an engrossing innings, as South Africa pinned their hopes of parity on another coming-of-age knock from the steadfast Keegan Petersen while riding out the contrasting, but unrelenting, threats of a superbly balanced India attack.At varying moments in the course of the day – most notably when they reached lunch on 100 for 3 with only the additional loss of the nightwatchman Keshav Maharaj, and again half an hour before tea, when two wickets in three balls from Mohammed Shami again derailed a well-established innings – South Africa looked set for a significant lead. Instead, their final six wickets were picked off for 51 – not without a fight, but with a certain inevitability, such was the calibre of the attack bearing down on them.The key scalp of the innings was that of Petersen for 72, and sure enough, it was Bumrah who delivered with his second wicket of a pre-tea double whammy that, moments earlier, had served up the dangerous Marco Jansen, bowled for seven by that relentless inducker as he played down the wrong line.Keegan Petersen acknowledges the applause on getting to a fifty•AFP/Getty Images

For the first hour of his innings on a baking-hot morning at Newlands, Petersen had set his sights purely on survival. With Maharaj providing a measure of impetus in a doughty stay as nightwatchman, Petersen had just six runs from 42 balls by drinks, all the while buoyed by the memories of his breakthrough fifty at the Wanderers last week, in a similarly low-scoring tussle.He needed some luck to make it that far, however, including when KL Rahul failed to wrap his fingers round a low edge to third slip on four. But when Umesh Yadav’s scrambled seam burst through Maharaj’s loose drive to bowl him for 25 just before the hour mark, Petersen took his cue for a controlled counterattack.With Rassie van der Dussen now taking his turn to drop anchor, Petersen cashed in on a fractional slackening of India’s extreme discipline, with six fours flowing from the next nine overs, including four exceptionally placed carves through the off side when offered a fraction of width, and a flick off the toes through midwicket off Shardul Thakur. Even R Ashwin, typically economical in an understated nine overs of deployment, couldn’t escape Petersen’s flood of confidence as he reverse-swept the third ball he faced past backward point.In consecutive overs before lunch, the pair brought up both their fifty stand and South Africa’s 100, but van der Dussen’s poise vanished during the 40-minute interval. He could have run himself out twice straight after the break, but instead fell for 21 to a scuffed drive off Yadav, with Kohli at second slip clinging onto a fast-flying edge.Petersen, however, found another important ally in Temba Bavuma – himself enjoying a period of serenity as a Test asset, for all that that another hundred (to follow up the famous maiden effort he made on this same ground in 2016) remains elusive. Few current players can put away a cover-drive with more aplomb right now, and in a hint at South Africa’s waxing fortunes, he even managed to turn a dropped catch at first slip into five bonus runs, as Pujara’s spill rolled into the stack of helmets behind the wicketkeeper.But on 28, and moments after the fourth and final bullet boundary of his innings, Bavuma was undone as Shami dragged his length back for Kohli to cling onto his 100th Test catch at second slip, and when Kyle Verreynne dangled his bat loosely two balls later to depart for a duck, South Africa were 159 for 6, and back in a heap of trouble.That was the cue for Bumrah to rev back into action. For three consecutive overs he tormented Jansen in the channel outside off, then did for Petersen with some extra lift into the heel of the bat. And despite some long-handled resistance from the tail, most particularly Rabada, he would not be denied his first five-for since the Trent Bridge Test in August last year, as Lungi Ngidi looped a leading edge into the covers.The day’s jeopardy wasn’t done just yet. With a slender lead of 13, Mayank Agarwal overturned an early lbw verdict in a hornet-like new-ball onslaught from Rabada, but departed soon afterwards for 7 as Rabada fizzed a full-length delivery off the edge to first slip. And though Duanne Olivier’s first two-over spell was wayward, Jansen’s opening gambit was anything but, as KL Rahul was enticed by the full length, and fenced a fourth-ball drive to Markram in the slips.Kohli, however, fresh from his supreme 79 in the first innings, refused to allow his side’s ascendancy to slide any further, as he and Pujara closed up for the evening in a 33-run stand.

وخلال اللقاء تدخل تاركوفسكي بقوة على ماك أليستر، وتحصل على بطاقة صفراء وأشارت تقنية الفيديو إلى أن التدخل لا يستوجب حصوله على بطاقة حمراء.

فيما أقرت رابطة الحكام المحترفين الإنجليزية لاحقًا بأنه كان ينبغي إلغاء البطاقة الصفراء وطرد تاركوفسكي.

ونشرت “ليفربول إيكو” تصريحات تاركوفسكي وقال: “تحدثتُ إليه (ماك أليستر) واعتذرت له لأنه لم يكن تدخلًا جيدًا”.

وأضاف: “عندما سقطت الكرة بيننا، ظننتُ أنه سيُهاجم بسهولة، وكنت أتوقع تدخلًا قويًا، تقليديًا، لكنه قام بالتدخل، وبينما كنت أندفع نحوه، تابعته وأمسكت به عاليًا، لذا اعتذرت له وتقبل اعتذاري، نعم، لم يكن تدخلًا جيدًا مني”.

وواصل بشأن المباراة: “لم نكن جيدين في التعامل مع الكرة، ولم نحركها بشكل جيد بما فيه الكفاية، لقد ضغطوا علينا بشكل جيد، وأعطيناها لهم في كثير من الأحيان”.

وأفاد: “لكننا صنعنا فرصتين جيدتين، إحداهما لبيتو، ورأيت الهدف وكان تسللًا، هذا ما حسم المباراة، وما كان يجب احتسابه”.

وأوضح: “لم أكن أعلم أنه (دياز) متسلل، لذا كان عليّ أن ألعب الكرة كما لو كان متسللًا، انتهى بي الأمر بالاندفاع نحو الكرة لأنني أعتقد أنه قد يتقدم للأمام، لذا فهو يؤثر على قراري باللعب، لذا إذا كان متسللًا، فهذا بالتأكيد عامل حاسم”.

وأتم تصريحاته: “لسبب ما قرروا أن يحتسبوا الهدف، وهو أمر غريب”.

ويتصدر ليفربول ترتيب الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز بفارق 12 نقطة عن آرسنال أقرب ملاحقيه.
