Hudson atribui desatenção e falhas individuais à eliminação do Cruzeiro

MatériaMais Notícias

Na saída do gramado da derrota do Cruzeiro por 2 a 1 para o Nacional – PAR, que custou a eliminação na Sul-Americana, o volante Hudson tentou dar explicações sobre o revés. Aos seus olhos, a Raposa sofreu com desatenção e erros individuais.

-Desatenção. Tomamos dois gols de falhas nossas. Falhas coletivas. Não adianta nada individualizarmos os erros daqui. Deixamos a classificação escapar. A verdade é essa. A classificação estava na nossa mão. Fizemos um gol e não tivemos maturidade, tomamos dois gols bobos. Nos pênaltis também, não aproveitamos e demos mole. Entregamos a classificação para o Nacional – comentou o camisa 25 da Raposa.

Triste com a segunda eliminação em menos de uma semana ( no domingo, o time de Mano Menezes foi vice-campeão estadual para o Atlético-MG), o meio-campista disse esperar por dias melhores no Campeonato Brasileiro. Competição que, crê, premia a regularidade e uma partida não joga todo um trabalho por água abaixo.

– Vai começar o Brasileiro, é um campeonato importante, longo, que vai premiar a regularidade. Temos que botar a cabeça no lugar e resolver os problemas internos para podermos voltar a vencer – completou.

O Cruzeiro estreia no Campeonato Brasileiro no próximo domingo, às 16h, quando recebe o São Paulo, ex time de Hudson, no Mineirão.

Leeds must start Junior Firpo vs Everton

After a damaging defeat to Manchester United last time out in the Premier League, Leeds United will be hoping to bounce back to winning ways when they take on Everton this afternoon.

Marcelo Bielsa’s side fell to a 5-1 thrashing at the hands of the Red Devils but will be confident of a far better outcome when they entertain the Toffees in their first game back in front of a full Elland Road crowd.

The Leeds manager may be tempted to make a couple of changes considering the nature of that defeat at Old Trafford, and one man who the Argentine should start from the off today is Junior Firpo.

The summer signing from Barcelona was brought on at half-time last Saturday, replacing Rodrigo at the break and seeing a tactical shift from Bielsa – the Spaniard went to his natural left-back role, and Stuart Dallas moved into central midfield.

Against an Everton side with an ageing Seamus Coleman at right-back, Firpo will feel confident of using his pace to hurt the Toffees defender going back towards his own goal.

Speaking to The Yorkshire Evening Post, player analyst Josh Hobbs said of the flying full-back: “My feeling is that he’s not great at winning the ball in duels but I don’t think it matters hugely. He is an excellent athlete and in our man-marking system that can cover for a few issues in defensive fundamentals.

“Going forwards, he’s a good dribbler – particularly when he gets up to speed and he can steam past players. He likes to play a pass into midfield and then sprint down the line to receive in behind and get into the box.”His delivery in wide areas is usually a fizzed low cross, which is dangerous as often if the player at the front post misses it, can be met by somebody running centrally or to the back post.”In his real breakthrough season with Real Betis during the 2018/19 campaign, Firpo managed three goals and four assists in La Liga, as well as averaging 0.8 shots, 0.8 key passes and 1.3 dribbles per game.The £7.2m-rated ace has the attacking instincts to cause real problems for the Toffees this afternoon, and Bielsa should be throwing him into the starting line-up after his runout against Manchester United last weekend.He could be the game-changer the Whites need.

Meanwhile, Phil Hay has confirmed a major Leeds United boost…

Bruno Silva valoriza papel dos meias no Botafogo: 'Nos dão essa liberdade'

MatériaMais Notícias

Peça fundamental no meio-campo alvinegro e autor de um dos gols da vitória do último domingo, contra a Ponte Preta, o volante – que pode ser considerado meia no esquema do Botafogo – Bruno Silva conversou com a imprensa nesta segunda-feira. Ele lembrou da liberdade dada por Jair Ventura nas funções exercidas pelos meias na tática alvinegra e valorizou a disputa interna no setor.

– Dessa vez foi eu e o Lindoso, o Airton já fez gol também. E o Jair dá essa liberdade para a gente ir chegando mais a frente. Sei da minha importância, como todos. Faço uma função que exige. Mas não é só o Bruno não, quem entra da conta do recado, o Lindoso jogou (domingo) e fez gol. Aproveitar o momento bom e quem vai ganhar é o Botafogo – enaltece o volante alvinegro.

O Glorioso agora vira a chave visando a partida de quinta-feira, na Argentina, contra o Estudiantes. Uma vitória pode classificar a equipe de Jair Ventura como líder do Grupo 1 da Libertadores. E, segundo Bruno Silva, o Botafogo não terá problemas nesse revesamento entre as competições disputadas agora.

– Nós temos que saber assimilar essa mudança, temos um jogo de Libertadores e depois o Brasileiro. Tenho certeza que saberemos mudar esse “timming” para manter a regularidade – completou o atleta do Botafogo nesta segunda-feira.

Apenas os reservas alvinegros subiram ao campo na atividade desta segunda. Os titulares realizaram um regenerativo nas dependências do Nilton Santos. O elenco viaja para a Argentina depois da atividade da manhã desta terça-feira.

Improvisado na ala há 11 anos, ex-atacante Leandro dá dica a Marcinho

MatériaMais Notícias

A inovação de Rogério Ceni na vitória sobre o Palmeiras, no sábado, já rendeu título brasileiro ao São Paulo. O técnico surpreendeu ao improvisar o atacante Marcinho na ala direita, exatamente como Muricy Ramalho fez com Leandro durante a campanha da conquista nacional em 2006. E o ex-jogador, que estava no Morumbi vendo o clássico, dá dicas ao seu sucessor no Tricolor.

Em conversa com o LANCE!, Leandro avisa que a principal preocupação de Marcinho deve ser estar concentrado na parte defensiva. A dificuldade é não se desligar para não ser surpreendido com a movimentação do adversário para aproveitar uma inversão de jogo.

– A principal dificuldade é fazer a cobertura quando a bola está do lado contrário. Não pode ficar desligado, precisa marcar o atacante que pode entrar em diagonal, se movimentar por fora. Você fica um pouco sem noção no início, mas o Marcinho foi bem – elogiou, lembrando que era mais ofensivo do que o atual improvisado ala direito do Tricolor.

– É um pouco diferente. Na parte ofensiva, eu era um pouco mais agudo, arriscava mais jogadas individuais, agredia mesmo o lateral adversário. Mas o Marcinho foi bem. Foi seguro na defesa e na parte ofensiva, dando passe para o primeiro gol, do Pratto. Tem tudo para crescer. O Rogério pode continuar apostando nele porque vai dar certo.

Leandro recorda que não foi tão complicado atuar na ala porque já tinha sido escalado como segundo volante anteriormente, no Fluminense. E recomenda a Marcinho para aproveitar a oportunidade, já que atletas polivalentes costumam ser presença mais frequente na escalação.

– Desejo toda a sorte do mundo ao Marcinho. Que aproveite bem a chance. Não é demérito nenhum ser improvisado nessa posição, é um bom sinal. Quem joga em mais de uma posição tem mais chance de ser titular. Então que ele seja feliz, vá bem e ajude o São Paulo – disse, pedindo para que ele não seja cobrado por gols.

– Vai depender da liberdade que o Rogério der para ele. O Muricy permitia que eu fosse para dentro do campo, virar um falso meia, ou atuar bem aberto. Mas é claro que fica difícil fazer gol. Não dá para cobrar que o Marcinho marque, cruze e faça gol. O único que consegue fazer isso é o melhor lateral do mundo, o Daniel Alves.

Cena repetida

Aposentado desde o ano passado, quando jogou a terceira divisão paulista pelo Catanduvense, Leandro vem fazendo cursos da CBF com o objetivo de se tornar auxiliar técnico. Mas encontrou tempo para atender a um convite do São Paulo para uma ação promocional para venda de ingressos para o Choque-Rei: repetiu a cena de comemoração do título brasileiro de 2006 e subiu na trave do Morumbi.

– Nem queria subir, mas me convenceram. Não tem mais aquele ferro lateral que segurava a rede, só a trave, fica mais difícil ficar em pé. E é mais difícil subir sem aquela emoção, mas consegui subir sozinho. Senti o mesmo frio na barriga e a emoção ao entrar no gramado só de imaginar o campo cheio. Foi como se eu entrasse para uma partida – comentou, otimista com o Tricolor de Rogério Ceni depois de ver no estádio a vitória de sábado.

– O São Paulo fez o jogo que precisava e aproveitou as chances que teve. Precisava mais dos pontos do que o Palmeiras, para o Rogério ter mais tranquilidade para treinar. O time tem tudo para crescer. No próximo clássico, vou de novo ao Morumbi. Sou pé-quente.

Livramento is already proving a bargain

Southampton’s new signing Valentino Livramento is already proving himself to be a bargain after two impressive appearances in the Premier League.

The 18-year-old, who joined from Chelsea in a deal worth just £5m earlier in the transfer window, earned a surprise start in Southampton’s opening day defeat against Everton at Goodison Park despite Kyle Walker-Peters’ impressive form last season.

The teenage defender kept his place for Sunday’s game against Manchester United at St Mary’s and quickly won over the Southampton faithful with an excellent display.

Livramento featured at right-back in the first half but moved further forward in the second 45 as Hasenhuttl tightened things up. The youngster emphasised his quality going forward with several lung-busting runs down the right-hand side, whilst also helping the Saints earn an impressive draw with his defensive abilities.

Although he had never played a senior game of football before his move to St Mary’s, he has not looked out of place in his two appearances thus far, contributing an impressive 16 recoveries and 15 duels won across the games against Everton and Manchester United.

Only Che Adams and Mohammed Salisu have averaged a higher rating in the Premier League so far this season according to WhoScored, which suggests that the 18-year-old has been an excellent addition to Hasenhuttl’s squad; and at such a young age, he is only going to get better.

Hampshire Live journalist Tom Leach was full of praise for the youngster after the game on Sunday, writing: “The star of the first half, Livramento was excellent. He battled against men with his best moment coming just before the break, racing down the right-wing and putting a ball in for Adam Armstrong. His second-half performance was nearly as strong. He is a very impressive young man.”

[freshpress-quiz id=“594431”]

Considering that he is keeping Walker-Peters out of the team on current form, Hasenhuttl will be delighted with the way that Livramento has started his Southampton career, and the manager will be hoping that the teenage prodigy can continue to improve throughout the season.

Warriors secure lead despite Lambert's five

Grant Lambert’s first five-wicket haul in first-class cricket was not enough to stop Western Australia securing a handy first-innings lead of 88

Cricinfo staff11-Oct-2008
ScorecardGrant Lambert’s first five-wicket haul in first-class cricket was not enough to stop Western Australia securing a handy first-innings lead of 88. After bowling the Warriors out for 265, New South Wales lost a couple of wickets but their batsmen fared comparatively better than they did in the first innings, ending at 2 for 62 with Greg Mail on 24 and the nightwatchman Beau Casson on 1.Resuming their overnight score of 3 for 106, the Warriors lost their captain Marcus North first thing in the morning, trapped lbw to his opposing number Dominic Thornely. Adam Voges was Lambert’s first victim of the day, edging to Daniel Smith and the side was in a spot of bother at 5 for 128.However, Trent Kelly and Theo Doropoulos added a crucial 76 to help the Warriors past the Blues’ 177 and secure first-innings points before both were dismissed within four runs of each other after crossing 200. Doropoulos fell within sight of his half-century and his 41, which included eight fours, was the highest score of the innings. Lambert then cleaned up the tail to finish with 5 for 82.It didn’t take long for the Warriors to strike, as Steve Magoffin sent back Phillip Hughes for a duck in the first over. Peter Forrest and Mail showed a lot of patience in constructing a half-century stand for the second wicket and the Warriors had to wait until the 30th over for their second breakthrough, when Forrest edged one to Luke Ronchi off North.

اتحاد الكرة لـ بطولات: حولنا لـ كيروش 23 ألف جنيه باقي مستحقاته

كشف مصدر باتحاد الكرة المصري عن حقيقة أحقية كارلوس كيروش المدير الفني السابق لمنتخب مصر ببعض المستحقات المالية عن فترة قيادته للفراعنة.

واستطاع كيروش قيادة منتخب مصر لاحتلال المركز الثاني ببطولة كأس أمم إفريقيا بعد الهزيمة أمام السنغال بضربات الترجيح بنتيجة 4-2، كما فشل في التأهل لنهائيات كأس العالم لصالح الأسود أيضًا.

وكان مصدر قد صرح لـ”بطولات”، بأن اتحاد الكرة سدد آخر دفعة من المستحقات المالية الخاصة بكيروش بالأمس. طالع التفاصيل

وقرر مسؤولو الجبلاية في وقت سابق إقالة كيروش بسبب فشله في التأهل لكأس العالم، وتعيين إيهاب جلال.

وقال المصدر لـ”بطولات”: “كيروش حصل على رواتبه الشهرية بالكامل حتى رحيله، وعلى جميع المكافآت الخاصة بالبطولة العربية”.

وأكمل: “كيروش حصل على مكافأة المركز الثاني في بطولة كأس الأمم الإفريقية، وذلك بالإضافة لمكافأة التأهل لدور الأربعة في بطولة أمم إفريقيا”.

وتابع: “لم يحصل كيروش على مكافأة مباراتي دور الـ16 ودور الـ٨ والدور الأول وقيمتها 481 ألفا و800 جنيه، وذلك بعد خصم مبلغ 25 ألف دولار ما يعادل 458 الفا و750 جنيه مصري وهي قيمة الغرامة الموقعة على كيروش من الاتحاد الافريقي كاف، وبالتالي فالمتبقي له من مستحقات هو 23 ألف و50 جنيه وتم تحويلها في حسابه أمس”.

وأضاف: “جميع قيمة المكافآت المصروفة جاءت وفقًا للائحة الموضوعة من قبل اللجنة السابقة التي كانت تدير اتحاد الكرة وبالتالي التزم المجلس الحالي بكل بنود اللائحة”.

وأتم: “المكافآت الاستثنائية (البونص) لا يوجد بها بند في اللائحة الموضوعة”.
