MatériaMais Notícias

De olho na venda da carga máxima para o jogo diante do Santos neste sábado, no Maracanã, o Vasco preparou diversas ações especiais para atrair seus torcedores. Até a tarde desta sexta-feira, por exemplo, cerca de 20 mil ingressos já tinham sido vendidos de forma antecipada. Além de promoções relacionadas aos sócios-torcedores do Cruz-Maltino, anistia, brindes e bebidas são exemplos dos eventos criados pela diretoria de Alexandre Campello.

A primeira ação foi em promoção nos valores dos ingressos para a partida. O ingresso mais em conta custa R$ 10 – não levando em consideração os planos de sócio-torcedor que possibilitam a obtenção do bilhete por meio de check-in. O setor sul já havia se esgotado até a última parcial divulgada pelo clube. As entradas continuam sendo vendidas nas bilheterias do Maracanã das 10h até às 19h45 deste sábado.

Outra ação diz respeito ao programa de anistia do Vasco. O clube disponibilizará três postos avançados da secretaria no Maracanã, nos setores Sul e Leste. Neles, será possível aderir presencialmente à anistia (cujo prazo se encerra em setembro), fazer o recadastramento obrigatório e tornar-se sócio estatutário. No Sul, serão duas estruturas de postos – uma na rampa de acesso B e outra na rampa de acesso C. Já no Leste, o posto estará disponível no Lounge.

Uma outra ação promocional é para quem aderir presencialmente ao programa sócio-torcedor “Gigante” neste sábado, no Maracanã. Todos irão ganhar um par de ingressos para o confronto contra o Bahia, dia 23 de setembro, em São Januário – para ter direito basta se associar em qualquer categoria pagando a anuidade no cartão de crédito ou débito. Para facilitar a adesão, o clube irá espalhar entre os acessos B e C do Maracanã 35 profissionais com tablet, máquinas Cielo e pirulito de identificação nas mochilas.

Por fim, o Vasco preparou uma ação com bebidas dentro do Maracanã para esta partida. Nos setores de arquibancada, os torcedores cruz-maltinos poderão adquirir duas latas de 269ml de cerveja por R$ 8. É um atrativo oferecido pelo clube pra que a torcida não deixe para entrar no estádio pouco antes de a bola rolar, visando melhorar o andamento das filas e o tempo de espera de cada pessoa no Maracanã.

England home in on whitewash

ESPNcricinfo previews the 4th ODI between Pakistan and England in Dubai

The Preview by Andrew McGlashan20-Feb-2012Match FactsFebruary 21, Dubai
Start time 1500 (1100 GMT)Alastair Cook has led England superbly with the bat and in the field•Getty Images

The Big PictureThis time it’s Pakistan who have only pride to play for. England are in search of a whitewash that will give some solace following the reversal in the Test series and, given how they have dominated in the one-dayers so far, they are strong favourites to complete the cleansweep.A 4-0 margin will move England up to fourth in the ICC rankings, nothing to write home amount in itself but a sign that progress is already being made in the 50-over format. The conditions they have faced in this series haven’t quite replicated the subcontinent at its toughest – that will come against India early next year – but neither is the next World Cup going to be held on dustbowls.England’s quick bowlers have been outstanding throughout the tour and now they are being led by Steven Finn. The fact Tim Bresnan hasn’t been able to walk back into the team – match readiness or not – shows how strong England’s options have become.Pakistan appear at a turning point with their one-day side. With an eye on the next World Cup they need to give the likes of Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq a chance to bed in even if it means short-term pain. They also need a better plan B when their spinners don’t dominate. Umar Gul’s form has been a major problem and they may need to look again at some new pace options.Form guide (Most recent first)
Pakistan LLLWW
England WWWLLWatch out for…There are signs, albeit small ones at the moment, that Eoin Morgan is emerging from the form slump that engulfed his performances in the Test series. A couple of unbeaten innings have enabled him to feel bat on ball and he was promoted to No. 3 in the previous game. Long term he is still a perfect finisher for England, and if Morgan can produce a significant score it will be another tick.Pakistan need more from Mohammad Hafeez. Since he made 88 in the opening Test against England he has had a number of starts without building a substantial innings. In the third ODI he had taken the attack to Stuart Broad only to fall two overs later for 29. He’s wasting form that Pakistan can ill-afford not to make the most if. His offspin has also lost some of its effectiveness as England’s batsmen take a more positive approach.Team newsIt’s anyone’s guess what Pakistan will do, especially as a number of players are suffering from flu. A dead ODI would appear the perfect chance to play Hammad Azam, the allrounder, while it also offers the chance to look at Junaid Khan, perhaps at the expense of the struggling Gul.Pakistan (possible) 1 Mohammad Hafeez, 2 Imran Farhat, 3 Azhar Ali, 4 Younis Khan, 5 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 6 Umar Akmal, 7 Adnan Akmal (wk), 8 Shahid Afridi, 9 Saeed Ajmal, 10 Junaid Khan, 11 Aizaz CheemaEngland’s only questions are rest and rotation. Jos Buttler and Tim Bresnan were both expected to figure in this series but injuries meant being sat on the sidelines. It’s now hard to find space in the team, although Bresnan for James Anderson remains a logical switch.England (possible) 1 Alastair Cook, 2 Kevin Pietersen, 3 Jonathan Trott, 4 Ravi Bopara, 5 Eoin Morgan, 6 Craig Kieswetter (wk), 7 Samit Patel, 8 Stuart Broad, 9 Graeme Swann, 10 James Anderson, 11 Steven FinnPitch and conditionsThe surface for Saturday’s game produced more pace and bounce than has been seen throughout the tour which certainly didn’t suit Pakistan’s game. Neither did batting first help them much. The same pitch is due to be used again which means there may be a little more assistance for the spinners.Stats and trivia The most wickets by an England bowler in a one-day series is 15 in six matches by Paul Jarvis against India, in 1992-93, and Steven Finn currently has 11 scalps in three games. Alastair Cook is currently fourth in the list of most runs scored in a one-day series for England England have completed 10 previous whitewashes in a series of at least three matches while Pakistan have been whitewashed six times.Quotes”We did not bowl properly, we did not bat properly and we did not field properly. We haven’t played to our potential.”
Mohsin Khan, Pakistan’s coach, is aware his side have some improving to do“Even though I spent some time in India before Christmas, it doesn’t replicate what you’re up against. But I’ve played a lot of subcontinent cricket and I should be used to it. I wasn’t, and my skill levels weren’t up to scratch.”

New Zealand can be beaten – Butcher

Zimbabwe have the courage and confidence to compete with and beat New Zealand in the one-off Test in Napier starting on January 26, according to the head coach Alan Butcher

Alan Butcher hopes Zimbabwe can carry forward the confidence from the last encounter between the two sides•AFP

Zimbabwe have the courage and confidence to compete with and beat New Zealand in the one-off Test in Napier starting on January 26, according to their head coach Alan Butcher. Since making their return to Test cricket in August last year, Butcher said the team had grown significantly from a mental perspective and are ready for their first challenge away from home in the new era.Zimbabwe endured the worst period in their cricketing history during six years of self-imposed exile from the longest form of the game. Defeats, disunity and disappointment abounded before they were able to make a commitment to rebuilding in 2010. Zimbabwe were ready for Test cricket again in August 2011 and beat Bangladesh in their comeback match in Harare. They played three series, all one-off Tests, in as many months and lost to Pakistan and New Zealand.Their defeat to New Zealand was by a margin of only 34 runs. Had they had managed to score those runs, they would have achieved a record Zimbabwean run chase. Although they didn’t, Butcher saluted the team’s efforts in just their third Test back. “People didn’t give us much of a chance so I was proud that we got that close,” he told ESPNcricinfo on the eve of Zimbabwe’s departure for New Zealand. “But I was also disappointed. We deserved to win it and to get that close and lose was disappointing.”The match highlighted one of Zimbabwe’s chief concerns on re-entering Test cricket: the inferiority complex that plagues so-called minnows, including Bangladesh. Throughout his tenure, Butcher has talked about developing Zimbabwe’s sense of self-belief and self-assuredness and as they embark on their first overseas tour as a readmitted Test nation, he says they have made progress. The results against New Zealand, which also included a record ODI chase by Zimbabwe, have helped.”I hope that the confidence we showed in those two matches will continue,” Butcher said. “In a lot of areas we showed that New Zealand can be beaten. What was really pleasing is that we did not have a bad day in the Test match, we played good cricket on all five days. And to win a one-dayer of that magnitude gave us a big boost. When we get into winning positions we have to be able to finish it off. The more times you get into a winning position, the more times you believe you can win.”One of the chief protagonists in getting Zimbabwe into situations where victory is a possibility is their captain Brendan Taylor. He scored back to back centuries in the ODIs against New Zealand and a hundred in the second innings of the Test. Taylor was offered a contract with Wellington to play in the HRV Cup as reward for his talents.Butcher said Taylor’s early experience of the New Zealand stint will help his leadership role and the team as a whole. “It’s been good to have him there, getting some inside information and insights on the conditions and a few of the players,” Butcher said. “And he has been fairly successful, which is a great feather in his cap.” Taylor was among the top 10 leading run-scorers in the Twenty20 tournament.The tour will also give some of Zimbabwe’s inexperienced Test players, particularly the bowlers, a taste of the big time. With senior seamer Chris Mpofu ruled out with a lower back injury, the third seamer’s spot is vacant. “[Kyle] Jarvis and [Brian] Vitori will be vital for us with the new ball but I would like to see one of Keegan Meth or Shingarai Masakadza do well in the third seamer’s spot,” Butcher said. “And both of them can hold a bat as well.”Graeme Cremer will also be interesting to watch. He may not get to play this time but it will be nice to see how an attacking spinner progresses.” Cremer has not been part of Zimbabwe’s comeback after a long recovery from a knee injury and may have to sit out for the experienced Ray Price if Zimbabwe opt for a safety-first approach. He is not in the ODI squad and will return to Zimbabwe, to be replaced by Prosper Utseya.From a batting perspective, Butcher said he would like to see “a couple of the fringe players” step up. “Guys like Forster Mutizwa and Regis Chakabva have good records in domestic cricket and it will be nice to see them do well. Then we will be well stocked.”Butcher said he would have loved to have had opening batsman Vusi Sibanda as part of the touring party but respected the decision of the cricket committee to exclude him. Sibanda was declared ineligible for national selection after choosing to play grade cricket in Australia and declining a Zimbabwe Cricket contract at the start of the season. He has since returned to Zimbabwe and is currently on a pay-as-you-play arrangement with the Mid-West Rhinos, which could turn into a full-time contract that will qualify him for national selection again.

Felipão divide méritos com Roger por 'cara de Libertadores' do Palmeiras

MatériaMais Notícias

Luiz Felipe Scolari não se colocou como o único responsável pela entrega que o Palmeiras apresentou em Assunção. Após a vitória sobre o Cerro Porteño (PAR), pelas oitavas de final da Libertadores, o treinador dividiu os méritos com Roger Machado, que deixou a equipe com 100% como visitante no torneio.

– O espírito de Libertadores estava impregnado no trabalho de Roger. Ele ganhou os três jogos fora de casa. Mas percebemos que a equipe estava organizada e com um espírito muito forte, mas já vinha do Roger. Hoje o Felipe (Melo) fez um jogo excepcional. É o espírito que sempre teve, um estilo gaúcho. Vamos tentar ter um espírito guerreiro, mas com qualidade, porque eles (jogadores) têm qualidade – analisou o treinador.

Agora com 29 partidas, Felipão é o técnico que mais comandou o Palmeiras na Libertadores: são 15 vitórias, cinco empates e nove derrotas. Nas duas campanhas pelo Verdão na Copa, foi campeão em 1999 e chegou à final em 2000, perdendo para o Boca Juniors (ARG).

Weverton, um dos jogadores que mais ouviram instruções de Scolari durante o jogo, disse que o comandante conhece mais da Libertadores do que os próprios atletas. Até por isso, o treinador não se deixa empolgar pelo triunfo por 2 a 0 fora de casa.

– Não existe diferença do Palmeiras para o Cerro. O Palmeiras foi o primeiro no ranking e o Cerro o quarto. São equipes muito equilibradas, o que muda é o jeito de jogar. O 2 a 0 é um bom resultado, mas temos que ter pés no chão e saber que o Cerro pode reverter lá, sim – avisou.

Palmeiras e Cerro Porteño se enfrentam novamente no dia 30 de agosto, no Allianz Parque. O Verdão pode até perder por um gol de diferença que avança para as quartas de final da Libertadores.

شكوك حول جاهزية ميسي لمباراة باريس سان جيرمان وبايرن ميونخ

تلقى نادي باريس سان جيرمان الفرنسي ضربة قوية قبل مباراته المرتقبة أمام بايرن ميونخ في دوري أبطال أوروبا. 

ويلاقي باريس سان جيرمان نظيره بايرن ميونخ يوم الثلاثاء المقبل في ذهاب دور الـ 16 بدوري أبطال أوروبا.

وتعرض النجم الأرجنتيني ليونيل ميسي للإصابة في مباراة باريس سان جيرمان أمام مارسيليا بكأس فرنسا أمس الأربعاء.

وبحسب صحيفة “ليكيب” الفرنسية، تعرض ميسي لإصابة في أوتار الركبة خلال المباراة التي شهدت هزيمة باريس سان جيرمان بهدفين لهدف وتوديعه لكأس فرنسا.

وأشارت “ليكيب” إلى أن أن اللاعب الأرجنتيني الدولي سيغيب عن مواجهة باريس سان جيرمان وموناكو في استاد لويس الثاني في الدوري الفرنسي يوم السبت المقبل، ومشاركته ضد بايرن ميونخ محل شك.

يأتي ذلك في ظل الشكوك حول جاهزية كيليان مبابي لمواجهة بايرن ميونخ، حيث تعرض لإصابة وأفاد ناديه في بيان رسمي بوقت سابق أنه سيغيب لثلاثة أسابيع.

على الرغم من المعلومات التي أوضحتها “ليكيب” تشير صحيفة “لو باريزيان” إلى أن ميسي لا يزال بإمكانه لعب دور في مباراة دوري أبطال أوروبا يوم الثلاثاء.

Jefferson tem melhora expressiva e recebe alta do hospital: 'Grande susto'

MatériaMais Notícias

Terceiro jogador com mais partidas disputadas na história do Botafogo, o goleiro Jefferson teve uma melhora expressiva após a realização de tomografias por conta de uma lesão no tórax e teve alta do hospital nesta sexta-feira, conforme era previsto pelos funcionários do Alvinegro.

-Estou feliz por ter alta do hospital e poder dar continuidade à recuperação em minha casa. Passarei uns dias em São José do Rio Preto, em repouso absoluto, e após esse tempo volto para o Rio para fazer novos exames e ver se houve alguma evolução durante o tratamento. Foi um grande susto, uma lesão que eu não tinha noção que poderia acontecer, e que me deixou internado por seis dias – disse Jefferson, completando:

– Agradeço muito a Deus, à minha esposa, que ficou durante todo esse tempo ao meu lado, aos meus familiares e amigos pelas mensagens de apoio, e ao Botafogo junto com a equipe médica responsável por todo o suporte dado nesse período. Ainda não tenho previsão de retorno aos treinos do Botafogo, mas estarei na torcida por meus companheiros mesmo de longe.

Por conta da gravidade da lesão, que ocorreu após um choque com Lucas Paquetá na partida contra o Flamengo, pelo Campeonato Brasileiro, Jefferson terá que usar uma proteção na região cervical por aproximadamente duas semanas e ficará afastado dos gramados até o fim de agosto – ou começo de setembro. Segundo o clube, o goleiro será reavaliado na próxima semana para saber quando poderá retornar aos treinamentos.

OS GOLEIROS

Os problemas de lesão continuam, por ora, para o treinador Marcos Paquetá na meta do clube de General Severiano. Titular da posição, o paraguaio Gatito Fernandez já treina com bola, mas só deve ter condições de jogo em cerca de dez dias, segundo apontado pelo próprio comandante.

Dessa maneira, o jovem Saulo, criado nas categorias de base do Bota, continuará como titular do gol alvinegro para as próximas partidas, contra Internacional e Santos, ambas válidas pelo Brasileiro, competição no qual o Botafogo ocupa a 10ª posição, e o duelo de ida contra o Nacional-PAR, pela segunda fase da Copa Sul-Americana.

Outra novidade que surge com esses problemas é a chance de Diego, atual titular da equipe sub-20, “ocupar” a vaga de reserva de Saulo. O goleiro de 19 anos, inclusive, foi inscrito para a sequência da Sul-Americana – assim como no ano passado, quando esteve na listagem dos arqueiros da Libertadores.

SL chief selector criticises team

Duleep Mendis, Sri Lanka’s chairman of selectors, has lashed out at the players and coaches of the national team for their dismal performances against Pakistan

Kumar Sangakkara has been the lone batting star for Sri Lanka in the series•AFP

Duleep Mendis, Sri Lanka’s chairman of selectors, has lashed out at the players and coaches of the national team for their dismal performances against Pakistan in the ongoing Test series in the United Arab Emirates.”The performance of our cricketers is way below of what we expected of them,” Mendis said.”We may not have played Test cricket in the UAE before but then we should have gone there a few weeks ahead and got ourselves acclimatised to the pitches and conditions.”Apart from Kumar Sangakkara the batting has been a complete let down. There have been occasions where other batsmen have also contributed but overall our batting from one to six has been disappointing. Sangakkara has been brilliant and he alone is carrying the Sri Lanka batting most of the time.”Mendis noted that this was not the first time the Sri Lanka batting has failed to live up to its potential. “This has happened in three consecutive series starting in England and Australia and now against Pakistan. Compared to Pakistan we have one of the best batting line-ups in Test cricket and experienced players who have made centuries at the highest level. I think it has something to do with the mental approach. Something is not right there and it is the coaches who have to address it.”Unlike during our time, today there are coaches to handle every aspect of the game, batting, bowling, fielding, so it is their duty to see where we are going wrong. As much as it is the responsibility of the coaches the players must also take a fair share of the blame.” Pakistan’s bowling attack has been much more incisive than Sri Lanka’s over the course of the series, and Mendis felt that was an indictment of the bowling coach. “You take our bowlers there is a marked difference when Pakistan bowl and when we bowl. Their bowlers are able to get life out of a lifeless pitch. I think it is something to do with technique and our bowling coach is responsible for it.”He was also critical of the rest of the support staff for not performing their roles properly. “See the number of players who are injured? Dammika Prasad is unable to play in two consecutive Test matches without breaking down. Yesterday (third day) he did not bowl and we were down to four bowlers. Thankfully we played five bowlers in the Test.”Apart from Prasad there is Nuwan Kulasekara, Shaminda Eranga, Ajantha Mendis and Prasanna Jayawardene all on the injury list. I don’t know what our physios and masseurs are doing with the players for them to get constantly injured.”On the question of promoting captain Tillakaratne Dilshan to open the batting in the third Test against Pakistan at Sharjah, Mendis said it was a tactical change to allow for an extra bowler in the XI.”We tried the 6-5 combination in England also but it didn’t work in our favour. We are 1-0 down in the present series and we need to win the final Test to square it. We made the change with that intention. [Lahiru] Thirimanne didn’t bat all that badly for a newcomer. He was left out because we are looking for a result in this Test.”Mendis also pointed out that Sri Lanka was presently in the process of rebuilding the team after the retirements of Muthiah Muralitharan, Chaminda Vaas, Sanath Jayasuriya and Marvan Atapattu and during such a period there can be setbacks.”It is not easy replacing players in the calibre of Murali, Sanath, Vaas and Marvan overnight. It will take some time and we will hit some rough patches while in the process of doing so.”

ميدو يوضح سبب فشل تلبية صفقاته في الإسماعيلي

كشف أحمد حسام ميدو المدير الفني للإسماعيلي سبب عدم ضم الصفقات التي كان يريدها، خلال الانتقالات الشتوية المنقضية.

وقال ميدو في تصريحات عبر حساب الإسماعيلي على موقع التواصل الاجتماعي “تويتر”: “خـلال الساعات الأخيرة من فترة الانتقالات الشتوية الماضية طالبت ضم بعض الأسماء وهـو ما سعت إليه الإدارة الحالية لـكن ما حال دون إتمامها هـو طلـب هؤلاء اللاعبين الحصول على مقـدم تعاقـد، وهـو ما رفضته لتحقيق مبدأ العدالة من خلال حصول جميع اللاعبين بالفريق على مستحقاتها أولًا”.

واستكمل: “مجلس الإدارة لبى احتياجات الفريق من خلال منح اللاعبين مكافآت الانتصار على الداخلية ثم الموافقة على خوض معسكر مبكر بالإسكندرية، وإنهاء أزمة مستحقات لاعب الفريق التونسي فراس شواط”.

وأكمل: “هذا بجانب الاتفاق على صرف مكافآت للاعبين في مواجهـة الاتحاد السكندري حال الفوز، إضافـة إلى صرف جـانـب مـن مستحقات اللاعبين خلال الساعات المقبلة، مع بحث تعديل عقود بعض اللاعبين الصاعدين والذين نجحوا في لفت الأنظار”.

واختتم: “أقدم الشكر لأعضاء مجلس إدارة الإسماعيلي الحاليين برئاسة اللواء أبو بكر الحديدي على الجهود المبذولة منذ توليهم المسئولية من أجل فرض حالة من الاستقرار والهدوء داخل صفوف الفريـق، كما يوجد حالة من الالتزام والمصداقية خاصة بعد وضع خطة يتم السير عليها بهدف تصحيح المسار ووضع الأمور فـي نصابها الصحيح”.
