“Estamos numa maré difícil.” A frase de Rodrigo Lindoso, logo após a decepção do empate com o Paraná, resume o momento do Botafogo. Drama ao sofrer gol, como neste domingo, drama ao não fazer gol, como nos minutos finais da partida contra o Nacional-PAR, no dia 1º. Fora toda a falta de sorte em diferentes contextos. Todavia, o problema maior do Glorioso é mais antigo.

Lembre-se que o gol deste fim de semana foi de pênalti. Lembre-se das chances criadas, mas tão claramente perdidas por Valencia, Rodrigo Pimpão e Luiz Fernando. A falta de consistência de quem joga no setor criativo do Alvinegro se tornou um problema crônico.

Tanto que nem com Felipe Conceição, nem com Alberto Valentim, tampouco com Marcos Paquetá houve titulares incontestáveis, especialmente nas pontas. Valencia até tem sido mais frequente. Porém, a falta de paciência da torcida comprova que ele ainda não agrada de todo.

Por outro lado, a defesa alvinegra mostrou menos erros primários do que vinha ocorrendo. Relevada a fragilidade do time paranista, a má fase técnica de tantos jogadores pode ser espantada com uma eventual classificação na quinta-feira e com a consequente retomada de confiança.

Em duas entrevistas coletivas antes da estreia, Zé Ricardo citou o trabalho de Jair Ventura no Botafogo. Nitidamente é a referência – ou a inspiração – de como ele deseja ver o time que, agora, comanda. O atual treinador do Glorioso terá trabalho para repetir aquela campanha. Na tabela, falta pouco. Na bola, muito.

O Vasco nem precisou fazer muita força para derrotar o Bonsucesso neste sábado, por 3 a 1, no Los Larios, em Xerém. O duelo era um autêntico Davi contra Golias. Só que diferente da história bíblica, desta vez o gigante venceu sem maiores problemas do pequeno adversário.

Dono da pior campanha do estadual, Davi (Bonsucesso) já entrou em campo sendo golpeado com força por Golias (Vasco). Logo no primeiro avanço ao ataque, os cruz-maltinos abriram o placar. Julio Cesar abriu bem pela esquerda e cruzou para o centro da área, Thalles – que vive grande fase – já dominou girando e bateu forte com a perna direita para marcar.

O golpe foi duro para o Davi da noite. O palco do confronto também não tinha muitos torcedores e a reação demorou para acontecer. Golias não tinha nada a ver com isso e querendo terminar com a melhor campanha desta primeira fase do Campeonato Carioca (para isso o Botafogo não pode vencer o Boavista hoje, em São Januário), foi pra cima e alegrou seu torcedor.

O segundo gol da partida foi uma pintura. Marcelo Mattos lançou Thalles, que deu belo passe com o peito para Nenê. O camisa 10 arrancou até a área e quando ficou cara a cara com o goleiro, deu apenas um toque sutil para golpear o Bonsucesso pela segunda vez.

Mesmo bem fraco, Davi não desistiu. Após o descanso do intervalo, voltou indo pra cima do Golias e conseguiu um golpe forte logo no primeiro minuto da segunda etapa. Matheus Pimenta aproveitou uma falha da defesa vascaína e conseguiu bater Martin Silva.

Depois disso, o Golias vascaíno teve tranquilidade para matar a luta. O Bonsucesso, Davi da noite, não tinha mais forças e levou o golpe final novamente com Thalles.

Agora, o Vasco segue para a briga com outros gigantes, na Taça Guanabara. Enquanto isso, o Bonsucesso vai lutar contra o rebaixamento, no octagonal que junta as oito piores campanhas.

O martírio do Sampaio Corrêa quando o assunto é o Campeonato Brasileiro da Série B parece simplesmente não ter fim. Mesmo enfrentando na noite do último sábado (28) o lanterna Boa Esporte, o revés por 3 a 1 aproximou perigosamente a equipe do Maranhão do próprio ocupante da última posição do torneio.

Pensando na sequência dos últimos oito compromissos da Bolívia Querida dentro da competição, o histórico tem sido bastante negativo.

Foram seis derrotas e dois empates, colocando a última vez em que o Sampaio ganhou dentro da Série B no distante 9 de junho contra o Oeste por 2 a 0 no Castelão. Para se ter uma ideia, nem mesmo a Copa do Mundo na Rússia havia começado na data em questão.

Além dos resultados, o que vem preocupando bastante quando se observa as partidas do time de São Luis é a falta de criatividade que somente foi superar nos compromissos da Copa do Nordeste. Mesmo enfrentando ABC e Bahia na semifinal e na grande decisão, o que acabou sendo determinante para o título foi a parte física e tática do que propriamente apresentações de sobra técnica diante dos oponentes.

A próxima oportunidade do Tubarão em acabar com a sequência ruim de resultados será no dia 4 de agosto, às 21h, diante do Criciúma na capital maranhense.

A derrota para o Palmeiras não foi de todo ruim para o São Paulo. Tudo porque o Tricolor fez um bom primeiro tempo no Pacaembu e individualmente alguns jogadores se destacaram. É o caso do volante João Schmidt, elogiado após o Choque-Rei pelo técnico Edgardo Bauza e esperançoso em ganhar uma sequência de jogos após outra boa atuação – a primeira foi contra o Novorizontino, também pelo Campeonato Paulista.

– João o vi muito bem no primeiro tempo, importante para o time. Acredito que a falta de ritmo o complicou no segundo – disse Patón, e é justamente a falta de ritmo que o jogador quer anular. Para isso, espera ganhar uma sequência de jogos no Tricolor. Com Wesley lesionado, ele é a principal opção na ausência de Thiago Mendes e Hudson.

– Então, muito bom jogar, né? Ainda mais um clássico como esse. Estou me sentindo mais confiante e vou seguir trabalhando para quando tiver a oportunidade continuar a fazer boas partidas, isso é importante – disse, ao L!, para logo completar:

– Ai sim acho que poderei conseguir uma boa sequência de jogos, ficando mais confiante, é muito importante para o jogador isso. Com uma boa sequência, vem o ritmo de jogo, que é o mais importante.

João viaja com o elenco são-paulino no início da tarde desta segunda-feira rumo à Venezuela. Lá, na cidade de Valera, o Tricolor encara o terceiro desafio na fase de grupo da Copa Libertadores: o Trujillanos. Até aqui, o clube do Morumbi conseguiu apenas um ponto – perdeu para o The Strongest (BOL) e empatou com o River Plate (ARG).

Eighteen wickets tumbled on the opening day between Railways and Saurashtra in Delhi, and at the end of it Saurashtra were well placed to take the first-innings lead. On a sharply turning track, Saurashtra were shot out for 175 after choosing to bat, with Ashish Yadav taking 4 for 35 for Railways. The visitors had made a steady start, with the openers adding 59, before ten wickets fell for 112 runs. Wicketkeeper Sheldon Jackson top-scored with 39.When they batted, Railways crashed to 71 for 8. They had got to 18 without damage before losing four wickets for no runs. Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja, who bowled unchanged from the Pavilion end after replacing seamer Sandip Maniar in the fourth over of the innings, took three of those wickets and finished the day with 6 for 22. Mahesh Rawat was the only Railways batsman to show some application, using his feet well and stepping down the track several times to kill the spin. He remained not out on 31 at stumps.First-class cricket returned to Shimoga after 32 years, and Stuart Binny marked the occasion with his second rescue job in as many games. His unbeaten 86 airlifted Karnataka from 171 for 6, after their top order fell apart against Uttar Pradesh in relatively easy batting conditions. Binny, aided by Sunil Raju, steered them to 300 for 7, leaving the game even after a see-saw day. Read the whole report here.Thirty-one years after his namesake took five wickets on first-class debut for Mumbai at the Wankhede Stadium, medium-pacer Balwinder Sandhu repeated the feat and dealt a blow to Punjab’s hopes of securing a quarter-final berth. Sandhu struck with his third delivery in first-class cricket and, along with Kshemal Waingankar, ensured Mumbai did not suffer from the absence of the experienced Aavishkar Salvi, who left the field clutching his side in his second over. Read the whole report here.A solid performance from Rajasthan’s top order gave them a strong platform for a formidable first-innings total against Orissa in Jaipur. After getting sent in to bat, Rajasthan lost Aakash Chopra early but Vineet Saxena, who is coming off a hundred against Saurashtra, and Hrishikesh Kanitkar made half-centuries and added 139 runs for the second wicket. Both batsmen were dismissed in successive overs with the score on 158, but Robin Bist and Rashmi Parida steered Rajasthan to 209 for 3 at stumps.Group BAshok Dinda’s five-wicket haul helped Bengal curb Baroda’s strong start and reduce them to 284 for 9 in Vadodara. Baroda only need first-innings points to secure a quarter-final berth and they were on course for a formidable total after being asked to bat. After they lost Anupam Gupta early, Aditya Waghmode and Rakesh Solanki scored half-centuries to lead Baroda to 145 for 1.Dinda dismissed both set batsmen and cut through the middle order, reducing the home team to 222 for 6. He then broke a 56-run partnership for the seventh wicket before Sourav Ganguly struck twice in the only over he bowled to leave Baroda on 278 for 9. Three wickets had fallen for no runs. Dinda ended the day with figures of 5 for 96.Gujarat’s bowlers made short work of Haryana’s batting line-up, dismissing them for 207 in Surat. Medium-pacer Mehul Patel took 4 for 59, and he was supported by Ishwar Chaudhary and Ashraf Madka, who took 3 for 50 and 2 for 23.Haryana had made a steady start after choosing to bat but lost their way from 59 for 1. Sunny Singh top scored with 69 but had no support from his team-mates, none of whom passed 30. Gujarat then lost their captain Parthiv Patel off the first ball of their innings, but Priyank Panchal and Niraj Patel steered them to 46 for 1 by stumps.Both teams squaring off in Chennai are already in the quarter-finals and it was Tamil Nadu that had the better of the first day against Madhya Pradesh. Madhya Pradesh had chosen to bowl, a decision that did not pay off – though the opening pair of T Sudhindra and Ishwar Pandey extracted a bit of movement off the pitch – as all the Tamil Nadu top-order batsmen got starts and three of them converted it into half-centuries to help them reach 294 for 4 at stumps.M Vijay and Kaushik Gandhi made 83 and 80, while Dinesh Karthik was unbeaten on 60. Vijay and Karthik were both in positive in their approach as Tamil Nadu had at least a half-century stand for each of the first four wickets, ensuring MP’s successes were few and far between. Vijay crafted some crackring drives, while Karthik peppered the straight boundary. S Badrinath, who was playing his 100th first-class game, meanwhile, hit the only six of the day before falling for 32 at the stroke of tea. The visitors used as many as eight bowlers and Amarjeet Singh had the best figures – 2 for 79.

حقق الفريق الأول لكرة اليد رجال بالنادي الأهلي فوزًا مهمًّا على حساب نظيره سموحة، في اللقاء الذي جمع بينهما مساء اليوم الخميس ضمن منافسات بطولة الدوري.

والتقى الأهلي مع نظيره سموحة، على صالة الأمير عبد الله الفيصل بمقر النادي بالجزيرة، وقدم الفريقان عرضًا قويًّا للغاية.

طالع..استعدادًا للبطولة.. اجتماع اللجنة المنظمة لكأس الأمم الإفريقية للشباب مصر 2023 انتهى الشوط الأول بتقدم رجال يد الأهلي بنتيجة 12-9، قبل أن يستمر الأداء المميز في الشوط الثاني، ليحسم الفريق الأحمر المباراة لصالحه بنتيجة 25-23.  

Steve Bruce has confirmed that Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson will face six to eight weeks on the sidelines with a “devastating” hamstring injury.

That’s according to the Mirror, who quote the Toon boss as revealing that his £20m summer signing from AFC Bournemouth will miss the best part of the next two months.

Wilson could miss up to seven Premier League fixtures as a result of the issue, starting with Monday night’s trip to Chelsea and subsequent meetings with Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and potential relegation rivals Wolves, West Brom and Brighton.

Wilson sustained a deep hamstring tear during last weekend’s 3-2 win over Southampton, that also saw United lose Javier Manquillo for multiple weeks and Fabian Schar for several months.

Manquillo is now expected to miss around six weeks with a muscular injury, while Bruce has confirmed that Schar underwent surgery on Tuesday after sustaining knee ligament damage that the defender will hope does not rule him out of this summer’s Euros.

As for Wilson, the striker underwent scans to assess his hamstring injury earlier this week after being forced to limp off the field during the first-half of last week’s win over the Saints, which returned sombre news for Bruce.

“Unfortunately for Callum, it is a tear to the hamstring and that could be six to eight weeks,” the Toon boss said. “The aftermath of a fantastic victory has blighted us. Losing the centre-froward for weeks is a bitter pill to swallow.

“We hoped it was a grade on two to three weeks, but it is worse than that. We have to be without him for six-eight weeks, but we won’t put a time scale on it. It is devastating news for us. It takes time, when you are pace and power as Callum is. His rehab will have to be spot on. We need him back as quick as we can.

“His performance at Everton [last month] was terrific. We are all struggling with muscle injuries, the sheer number of games and no rest between. Without Callum, it will be hard core. He has been terrific. It will be difficult to replace him.”

The scale of the task now facing Bruce is colossus, with Newcastle left with a mammoth obstacle in their way toward securing Premier League survival for another season.

No Magpies player has been as involved in United’s attacks this term than Wilson, who has offered 2.0 shots a game over his 21 top-flight appearances, in a side that has only offered on average 9.7 each league fixture played to date, per WhoScored.

His efforts have also returned the most goals (10), while Miguel Almiron’s brace against Southampton was enough to move the Paraguayan second on the scoring chart at St. James’ Park with four – only Jeff Hendrick, who’ll be suspended against Chelsea, has also scored twice or more.

Jonjo Shelvey, who boasts one goal to his name, has taken the second-most shots per game with 1.6 but only 0.5 of those have come inside the box, where Wilson is the only player to have offered over 1.0 among those who have featured more than once for Bruce thus far.

Joelinton, who has also only scored once, has taken 1.2 shots a game over his 17 outings, while fellow strikers Andy Carroll (1.1) and Dwight Gayle (0.7) will hope to improve their output in Wilson’s absence.

AND in other news, Newcastle have an ace up their sleeves in efforts to sign a striker valued at £30m earlier this season…

After nearly two years without a Test hundred, Ricky Ponting gave himself every chance of completing one on home soil with an assured half-century that provided a solid platform for Australia at the Gabba

After nearly two years without a Test hundred, Ricky Ponting gave himself every chance of completing one on home soil with an assured half-century that provided a solid platform for Australia at the Gabba. On an eventful day on which Daniel Vettori ran himself out on 96 and Michael Clarke was bowled off a no-ball, Australia finished in a reasonable position at 3 for 154, but New Zealand knew a couple of early wickets on the third morning would put them on top.New Zealand had done well to post a competitive 295, thanks largely to Vettori and Dean Brownlie, who in his second Test remained unbeaten on 77. But after Australia lost both their openers cheaply, including the debutant David Warner in the second over of the innings, their recovery was encouraging for the home fans, though it was not without its nervy moments.Ponting was nearly run out before he had scored when he was called through and then sent back by Usman Khawaja, who himself was caught short due in the first over after tea. Kane Williamson’s direct hit had Khawaja on his way for 38, a disappointing end to a promising innings, and it was hard to avoid thinking that Ponting’s call for the tight single was to blame, although a split-second hesitation from Khawaja also played a part.When the umpires called play off due to bad light at 4.40pm, a decision that in itself added to the drama of the day as conditions appeared fair, Ponting was on 67 and had played some fine strokes, 44 of his runs having come through boundaries. There was a lovely pull off Doug Bracewell and a confident drive through the off side against Tim Southee, and his fifty came up with a four driven through extra cover off Chris Martin.Ponting had survived a close lbw appeal against the part-time medium pace of Brownlie on 63, the not-out decision of the umpire upheld when New Zealand’s review showed “umpire’s call” for the impact on off stump and the ball clipping the top of the bails. Clarke, who went to stumps on 28, had also had a let-off, having played on to Bracewell on 23 only to have Asad Rauf check on a suspected no-ball, which was confirmed by the third official.Little mistakes like Bracewell’s overstep threatened to undo New Zealand’s strong start in the field. The Australians had to face two overs before lunch and in the second, Warner was cramped by a well-directed shorter delivery from Tim Southee that brushed the gloves on the way through to the wicketkeeper as the batsman tried to evade the ball.Smart stats

Daniel Vettori became the fifth New Zealand batsman to be dismissed in the nineties in a Test against Australia. Jeremy Coney is the only New Zealand batsman to be dismissed twice in the nineties against Australia.

Vettori’s dismissal was the 40th instance of a batsman being run out in the nineties. Ken Barrington, Rohan Kanhai and Craig Wishart have all been dismissed in this fashion twice in the nineties.

The 158-run stand between Dean Brownlie and Vettori is the best sixth-wicket stand for New Zealand against Australia. Vettori was also involved in the previous highest of 126 in Wellington in 2010.

Vettori’s half-century is his 23rd in Tests and takes him to joint-third position on the list of New Zealand batsmen with the most half-centuries. Stephen Fleming (46) and Nathan Astle (24) are above Vettori on the list.

Nathan Lyon’s 4 for 69 is fifth on the list of best bowling performances by a spinner in the match first innings in Brisbane

Ricky Ponting went past 1000 runs in Tests against New Zealand. Of the six Australian batsmen who have crossed 1000 runs against New Zealand, his average of 61.41 is second only to Justin Langer’s 62.94.

Soon after the resumption, the other opener Phillip Hughes was squared up by Martin and edged to gully, where Martin Guptill took a fine catch low in front of him, and Australia were in trouble at 2 for 25. At that point, New Zealand’s 295 looked a long way off for the Australians, who had been frustrated by the Vettori-Brownlie partnership for much of the morning.Vettori and Brownlie added 158, a stand that ended when Vettori suffered a brain-fade approaching what looked like becoming his seventh Test century and his first against Australia. On 96, Vettori took off for a suicidal single to mid-off and even his full-stretch dive wasn’t enough to beat the direct hit of Michael Hussey.Vettori pulled well against the fast men and brought up his half-century from his 70th delivery, while Brownlie remained solid and made Australia pay for the chances he gave on the first day. He brought up his fifty from his 121st ball with an impressive on-drive for four off James Pattinson. Brownlie tried to lift his tempo once he began running out of partners, but had to settle for a solid half-century, his second in two Tests, instead of his maiden hundred.Nathan Lyon picked up four wickets and was the most consistently threatening of Australia’s bowlers, spinning the ball sharply and using flight and guile in his first match of any kind at the Gabba. He wrapped things up shortly before the scheduled lunch break when he turned a ball through the gate and bowled Martin for 1.Australia began to chip away at the lower order after Vettori ran himself out. The wicketkeeper Reece Young was caught at slip for 2 off Peter Siddle, Bracewell edged a Lyon topsinner to slip for a duck, and Southee, having slogged Mitchell Starc over the fence, was caught at long-on for 17 trying for another six off Lyon.Southee and Vettori joined the long list of New Zealand batsmen who contributed heavily to their own dismissals. Whether such lapses cost them remains to be seen.
