Having joined Celtic on a season-long loan deal this summer, Jota has quickly established himself as a fan favourite at Parkhead.
Indeed, the 21-year-old has left the Celtic Park faithful stunned on more than one occasion over the course of his six Scottish Premiership fixtures so far this season, having already bagged two goals, provided two assists and averaged a highly impressive SofaScore match rating of 7.42 – ranking him as Ange Postecoglou’s fifth-best performer in the league.
The Benfica loanee has also done the business in Europe, registering two assists and creating four big chances in his three Europa League appearances, returns which have seen the £3.15m-rated man average a SofaScore match rating of 7.63.
As such, the Portugal U21 international would not appear to be too far away from being undroppable at present, however, that is exactly what Postecoglou must do when he side visits Hibernian on Wednesday evening.
There are a couple of reasons for this standpoint, the first of which is the fact that Jota is probably deserving of a rest after starting all ten of the fixtures he has been available for – especially when considering the winger has been substituted just once in this ten-game period, with four minutes to go in the 2-0 win over St. Johnstone last time out.
The second, and perhaps more important, is so Postecoglou can afford to hand Mikey Johnston his first start of the club’s 2021/22 campaign, with the winger in rather desperate need of game time in order to regain match fitness after recovering from his hamstring tear suffered in pre-season.
Indeed, the 22-year-old looked incredibly lively when brought on against Ferencvarosi last week and undoubtedly possesses the potential to become yet another exciting option for the 56-year-old Hoops manager to call upon in his Celtic attack this season.
However, unless Jota is dropped at some point in the near future, Johnston’s return will be severely hindered, leading us to believe that Postecoglou simply must sacrifice the player who he himself dubbed an “outstanding” talent for the greater good of his side this Wednesday.

Ivan Madray, a middle-order batsman and leg break bowler, played two Tests against Pakistan in 1957-58 with little success, scoring three runs and taking one wicket
Cricinfo staff24-Apr-2009Former Guyana and West Indies cricketer Ivan Madray died aged 74 at the Georgetown Public Hospital on Thursday, a day after being admitted with hypertension.A middle-order batsman and leg break bowler, Madray played two Tests against Pakistan in 1957-58, scoring three runs and taking one wicket. His first-class career comprised six matches and was over by the time he was 24, after which he moved to England and played for Lincolnshire.The Berbice Cricket Board (BCB), in a statement, said young cricketers could learn much from how Madray played his cricket, especially from his discipline, passion and hard work.Born on July 2, 1934 at Port Mourant, Madray made his first class debut for British Guiana against the touring Australians on April 20, 1955. He was one of several cricketers to emerge from Port Mourant under the guidance of Sir Clyde Walcott. His contemporaries included Basil Butcher, Rohan Kanhai and Joe Solomon.Madray also played alongside some famous West Indies cricketers such as Sir Garfield Sobers, Sir Everton Weekes, Sir Conrad Hunte, Rohan Kanhai and Lance Gibbs in his debut Test against Pakistan at the Queen’s Park Oval, in a match the hosts went on to win by 120 runs.
Twenty-nine days of Test cricket across three months and more than10,000 kilometres has not been enough to split the world’s two bestteams

Twenty-nine days of Test cricket across three months and more than10,000 kilometres has not been enough to split the world’s two bestteams. After the battles at home and away the final outcome wasAustralia 3, South Africa 3. The net result is that Australia arestill the No. 1-ranked team in the world and South Africa remainsecond. The numbers might be soon forgotten but the quality of cricketthat has been on display will be remembered for years to come.The final Test of a long, fiercely-contested and highly-entertainingsummer ended with ten minutes to spare on the fourth day. It was thefirst of the six Tests between these two sides this season that failedto reach the fifth day. Every match produced a result and threw upindividual performances that showed the five-day format at its verybest.At the WACA in December it was Mitchell Johnson’s scarcely believableeight-wicket haul followed by an even more surprising effort from ABde Villiers and the South Africans, who completed the second-highestchase in Test history. In Melbourne it was the arrival of JP Duminy,whose 166 stamped him as a world-class player. At the SCG it was thespine-tingling sight of Graeme Smith walking down the steps with anhour to play, ready to bat with a broken hand to try and save thematch.In Johannesburg it was Marcus North’s century on debut, combined withJohnson’s breathtaking unbeaten 96. At Kingsmead it was the20-year-old Phillip Hughes, who refused to back down against one ofthe meanest pace attacks in the world, and became the youngest man inhistory to score two centuries in a Test. And in Cape Town it was thereturn of the forgotten man Ashwell Prince to score 150 as an opener,followed by a Johnson hundred that was a footnote to the match butpossibly the start of a new chapter for Australia.There wasn’t a boring match among them. The evenness of the overallcontest bodes well for future bouts between these two teams – theseries will become more frequent and will no longer be heldback-to-back – which are, along with India, unquestionably the currentsuperpowers in Test cricket.”Right at the moment that’s the way it is,” Ricky Ponting said. “I’m notsure if that will always remain the same because there are a number ofother very good Test sides out there as well. Whenever you mentionrankings and things you’ve always got to throw India into that as wellbecause they are a very formidable team, mainly at home but they arestarting to put some better performances on the board away from homeas well.

“But as far as we’re concerned, we’d like to think that with whatwe’ve done in the last few months, bringing on a new generation ofAustralian players, that we can maintain a really high level of Testmatch cricket. If we do that and play somewhere the way we’ve playedin the first couple of weeks of this Test match tour and then I thinkwe’ll take some knocking out of that No. 1 ranking.”It was a strange scenario at the end of the Newlands match. Australiahad lost and it was a hefty defeat by an innings and 20 runs. Yetthere were smiles in the dressing room as the match slipped away, inpart because there was the entertainment of Johnson’s hundred but alsobecause the result of the dead rubber could be quickly erased from theAustralians’ memory.As Ponting’s men had their photos taken with the series trophy andlapped up the atmosphere in the twilight with Table Mountain in thebackground, the South Africans also celebrated. It was the second timethey had beaten Australia by an innings – the first came in Durban in1969-70 – and they had rediscovered the form that deserted them aftertheir 2-1 win in Australia.The re-emergence of Prince and centuries to AB de Villiers and thestand-in captain Jacques Kallis gave the Newlands crowd plenty tocheer, as did the nine-wicket match haul from Paul Harris. Kallis saidhis men would celebrate the strong performance but would also reflecton a series that was over too quickly.”[We’re] obviously elated with the win,” Kallis said. “The guys reallypitched up here on day one and we played the type of cricket that weknow we can play. But it is frustrating that we didn’t turn up likethat on the first day of the series. Having said that Australia playedsome really good cricket and put us under pressure.”The difference in the first two Tests was the incisiveness of theattacks on helpful pitches and South Africa’s experienced unit led byDale Steyn and Makhaya Ntini was outbowled by Australia’s young group.It wasn’t until the flat surface in Cape Town that Steyn found thesort of spark he had boasted in Australia..”Sometimes you get on a wicket that helps you as a bowling attack andyou try and bowl teams out and you forget what really works, andthat’s hitting good areas,” he said. “We did that exceptionally wellin this Test match and that’s what was lacking in the first two Testmatches. I think the guys have learnt a lot. On a green wicket you’vegot to bowl exactly the same way as if you’re bowling on a flat wicketand that’s what gets you the wickets, not searching for those miracleballs that pitch leg and hit the top of off.”The miracle balls might not have come for South Africa in this seriesbut across the six Tests there have been more than enough miraculousfeats from both teams. Fans will look back on the past three months asa golden summer for Test cricket.

O Juventude segue firme na luta pelo acesso à elite do futebol brasileiro. Nesta terça-feira, às 21h30, o Alviverde Gaúcho visita o Luverdense no estádio Passo das Emas, em jogo válido pela 20ª rodada do Brasileiro da Série B.
A equipe gaúcha figura na quinta colocação da tabela, com 31 pontos. Apenas três pontos separam o time da vice-liderança da competição. Já o Luverdense amarga a 18ª posição com 20 pontos.
Os gaúchos terão de superar um problema constante que vem assolando o elenco na temporada: lesões. Pra o duelo desta terça-feira, o técnico Gilmar Dal Pozzo ainda não poderá contar com cinco jogadores. O goleiro Matheus, o zagueiro Ruan, os laterias Pará e Bruno Collaço e o meia Wallacer, todos lesionados. A boa notícia fica pelo retorno do volante Lucas, que não esteve presente na vitória do último sábado sobre o Santa Cruz. O jogador cumprira suspensão pelo terceiro amarelo.
Já o Luverdense aposta no mando de campo como trunfo. Em termos de escalação, o técnico Júnior Rocha não tem grandes problemas e deve manter a base da equipe que perdeu por 1 a 0 para o Náutico, em Pernambuco, no último final de semana. A única baixa fica por conta do volante Ricardo, que foi expulso na última partida e terá Alaor Júnior como substituto.
O duelo desta semana será o segundo entre Luverdense e Juventude no ano. No primeiro encontro, na primeira rodada da Série B, os adversários protagonizaram um grande jogo no estádio Alfredo Jaconi, em Caxias do Sul (RS), e os donos da casa se saíram melhor, vencendo por 2 a 1, de virada.

Marvan Atapattu and other Sri Lankan ICL players will know next week when they can return to the official fold•ESPNcricinfo Ltd
The SLC will hold an important interim committee meeting on Thursday to decide on the future of ICL-contracted players, including former captain Marvan Atapattu.Nishantha Ranatunga , the interim committee chairman, said that chairman DS de Silva was keen on lifting the ban and allowing past cricketers to be involved in the game, and it was likely that a positive decision would be reached.With the BCCI allowing all its cricketers associated with ICL to return to official cricket if they cut all ties with the unofficial private league by the end of May, other boards are likely to follow on the same lines.Ranatunga said that SLC was also exploring the possibility of hiring another former great Aravinda de Silva as a full-time consultant coach. SLC have already appointed another former Sri Lanka cricketer Romesh Kaluwitharana as temporary coach of the Sri Lanka A team after Chandika Hathurusingha, another former Sri Lanka cricketer was promoted to become the shadow assistant coach of the senior team.Ranatunga stated that SLC has advertised for permanent coaches for the Sri Lanka A team, Development Squad and the Academy Squad. “After we close applications an independent committee will evaluate the prospective candidates for interviews,” Ranatunga said.SLC will also look at hiring a full-time manager for the senior team. At present former Sri Lanka wicketkeeper-batsman Brendon Kuruppu has been appointed to the post on a tour-by-tour basis. Ranatunga said that SLC was keen to have Kuruppu involved in the capacity of a national selector or a coach, but they would speak to him before making the appointment.Ranatunga also said that they had received about 40 applications for the post of media manager. “We will be shortlisting them very soon for interviews,” he said.
فسر بيتر فيشر، رئيس نادي آينتراخت فرانكفورت الألماني، تصريحاته التي أدلى بها بشأن المهاجم السنغالي ساديو ماني قبل مواجهة بايرن ميونخ.
ويلتقي بايرن ميونخ حامل لقب البوندسليجا مع فرانكفورت بطل الدوري الأوروبي، في أولى مباريات الدوري الألماني لموسم 2022-2023، يوم الجمعة.
وصرّح فيشر في مقابلة مع “RTL” و”NTV” حين سُئل عن ماني: “من هو ماني هذا؟، بالمناسبة، عملنا دائمًا بشكل جيد نسبيًا ضد روبرت ليفاندوفسكي حين كان في بايرن ميونخ”.
فيشر عاد ليوضح أن تصريحه لا يقصد به الإهانة بعد أن أثار البيان ضجة، وأفاد في تصريحات نشرها “sport buzzer”: “الجميع يعرف أن لدي شغفًا كبيرًا بـ ليفربول”.
وأوضح: “لذا، فقط من أجل المزاح، قلت بالإنجليزية: من هو ماني بحق الجحيم؟ أنا أعرف ذلك، إنه مهاجم جيد، وجوده في الدوري الألماني مكسب للبطولة، أتحدث عنه باحترام كبير”.
يذكر أن ماني انتقل إلى بايرن ميونخ قادمًا من صفوف ليفربول الإنجليزي.
Dele Alli’s north London derby lasted only 45 minutes as Tottenham Hotspur were well-beaten by their arch-rivals at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Lilywhites’ winless run in the Premier League continued at the hands of Arsenal after they leaked three goals for a third successive defeat, whilst their creative problems in attack were equally on show.
A quickfire 24 minutes saw Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka find the net before half-time, compounding Nuno Santo to yet another loss.
The Portuguese head coach was evidently frustrated at the break and following the team talk, he made two substitutions, in which Alli was replaced by the more defensively sound Oliver Skipp.
It helped shore up their leaky backline but did their attacking options no favours whatsoever, not that the Englishman was any better.
As per SofaScore, the 25-year-old midfielder was graded as Spurs’ worst player with a 5.9 rating. He managed only 24 touches and 13 passes, both were lower than that of goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who spent more time picking the ball out of his net than with it at his feet.
Alli, one of the two more attacking options in the engine room, failed to drive possession forward into the Gunners’ half as he did not register a single successful dribble from two attempts, nor did he create a key chance or fire a shot at goal.
The £27m-rated Spurs star was also weak in his battles, winning just one of five duels (20%) up against Mikel Arteta’s midfield, who were wholly dominant in the first half, that’s on top of losing possession eight times from those 24 touches.
That’s once every three touches and once every 5.6 minutes.
“Barely made an impact on the match,” claimed football.london reporter Alasdair Gold, who handed him a 3/10 in his post-match ratings column. The joint-lowest in the starting XI.
Overall, it was a complete passenger-like display from Alli, so it’s no wonder he was hooked over some of the other members of the squad.
Nuno has trusted him to start all six of their league games but in return, he’s only contributed one goal, via Transfermarkt. Therefore, the Portuguese has every right to feel badly betrayed after that result.
