It has taken Shane Watson eight years and dozens of medical appointments to reach his hundredth one-day international but he made sure the moment was extra memorable with a Man-of-the-Match performance in Australia’s crushing defeat of West Indies. Watson’s 59 helped Australia set up an imposing target of 257, before he took a wicket and a catch as the 113-run win was sealed.”It’s a really special moment to be able to get 100 games,” Watson said. “It’s something that seemed a long, long way off the last couple of years. To be able to play 100 games and then contribute the way I did today is always nice as well.”The victory continued Australia’s unbeaten run this summer, having succeeded in every match against Pakistan. Their only blemish was the drawn Adelaide Test against West Indies and with four ODIs and two Twenty20s remaining against Chris Gayle’s men, their sights are firmly set on an undefeated home season.”Of course [it’s on our minds],” Watson said. “It was at the start of the summer as well from the Test matches, Ricky talked to us about it at the start of the summer to really do everything we possibly can to go through winning every single game. Unfortunately we weren’t able to do that in the Adelaide Test but throughout the rest of the Tests and one-dayers we’ve played some really good cricket.”Australia’s clinical effort has given West Indies a serious challenge to level the series in Adelaide on Tuesday but the performance of Kieron Pollard was one positive for West Indies. Pollard’s career-best 3 for 45 was instrumental in stopping Australia push on towards 300 and then he top scored with 31 in the chase.Pollard came in with the score at 4 for 44 and together with Lendl Simmons, tried to revive West Indies’ hopes of victory. He holed out to long-on off Nathan Hauritz but Gayle said he had been impressed with the maturity shown by Pollard, 22, who thrived during his stay with South Australia in the Big Bash.”The last couple of days I’ve seen Pollard he looked a different sort of player,” Gayle said. “He looks a more confident players going into these games. I’m happy with his performance but disappointed the way he got out. That was a crucial wicket for us. He was the one guy who was looking to give us the best chance to take us home there.”I think [he has matured], definitely. He seemed a bit more calm to me, the way he went about his batting his selection was spot on. We lost him at a crucial time but I’m sure he’ll get better, no doubt about it. He’s definitely a good prospect to have in the team.”Despite the quick turnaround, Gayle was confident his men could bounce back in Adelaide. They are still searching for their first ODI victory against Australia since 2006.”Not the sort of start we wanted in this ODI series,” Gayle said. “The damage already done so it’s back to square one. We’re looking forward to Adelaide now so hopefully we can square the series and get back in the series as quickly as possible.”

Desembargadores anulam HD como prova e caso do Vasco pode ir ao STJ

MatériaMais Notícias

Em audiência na 12 Câmara Cívil do Tribunal de Justiça do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, desembargadores decidiram, na tarde desta terça-feira, em manter o HD com dados dos sócios do Vasco fechado. O mandado de segurança impetrado pelo clube foi aceito por 2 votos a 1. Com isso, por enquanto, após a publicação da decisão no Diário Oficial, o HD voltará ao Cruz-Maltino e não será mais periciado.

Cabe a parte autora da ação, membros da oposição da junção de Julio Brant com Fernando Horta, ao lado de seu departamento jurídico, avaliar se o recurso disponível ao Superior Tribunal (STJ) será impetrado. Segundo o advogado João Basílio, em conversa com os jornalistas na saída do julgamento, esta ida até Brasília não está descartada.

Esta decisão foi considerada uma vitória importante por Eurico Miranda e seus aliados. Constava neste caso o banco de dados que a oposição tentava usar como prova de irregularidade de sócios votantes na eleição do último dia 7. Diretor jurídico do Vasco, Leonardo Rodrigues não quis conversar com os jornalistas na saída do Tribunal ao ser questionado.

O desembarbador relator do caso Querubim Schwartz mudou quatro vezes de opinião sobre o que deveria ter feito com o HD. Primeiro, ele mandou periciar o banco de dados. Três dias depois mudou de opinião. Resolveu voltar atrás mais uma vez e na sessão final mudou de novo, dando voto favorável a situação. Ele argumentou que faltou isonomia, alegando que os advogados autores da ação tiveram acesso ao HD.

Acompanhou o voto do relator o desembargador Jaime Pinheiro, que destacou também que houve irregularidade na maneira que a prova foi apreendida. Segundo ele, o mandado para apreender era para um endereço, estava fechado na ocasião da ida do oficial de Justiça, no dia seguinte o representante foi a outro endereço e apreendeu, mas com o mandado para o primeiro local e não segundo.

O único voto contra a situação foi da desembargadora Lúcia Maria, que reforçou que mandado de segurança não pode ser dado em recurso.

لابورتا: برشلونة ما زال يدعم فكرة دوري السوبر الأوروبي.. وليس لدينا دولة تنفق علينا

كشف رئيس نادي برشلونة، خوان لابورتا، الأسباب التي دفعت إدارته لتفعيل الروافع الاقتصادية في الصيف الماضي من أجل تدعيم صفوف الفريق الأول لكرة القدم.

وفعل برشلونة 4 رافعات خلال أشهر الصيف الماضي من أجل إبرام أكثر من صفقة قوية بطلب من المدرب، تشافي هيرنانديز، وعدم التأثير على الأرصدة البنكية.

وتحدث لابورتا في تصريحات نقلتها صحيفة “ماركا” الإسبانية، وقال: “لا يمكن لنادي برشلونة أن يعيش إلى الأبد على رافعات، نحن نعلم ذلك، لكن الحقيقة هي أن الوضع المالي للأندية مقلق للغاية، لأننا نتحمل جميع التكاليف وجميع المخاطر”.

وواصل: “الرافعات شيء استثنائي، ليس لدينا دولة تنفق على نادينا أو رجل ثري يضخ الأموال، لقد أنقذنا برشلونة من خلال تلك القرارات، لأن الأرصدة المالية لم تكن في وضع جيد، كان الوضع على وشك الانهيار”.

واستمر: “بفضل الرافعات والتعديلات، كان لدي برشلونة فائض مالي، لدينا 98 مليون يورو ربح وعائدات أكثر من مليار مليون يورو”.

وتابع: “قام 38 فريقًا ببيع حقوق البث التلفزيوني لصالح صندوق الاستثمار لمدة 50 عامًا، لم نر هذه الصفقة جيدة ولم نعتبرها نحن جيدة، لقد بحثنا عن حلول أخرى، ارتكب مجلس الإدارة السابق خطأ الرغبة في المنافسة ماليًا رغم كل من قوانين اللعب المالي النظيف”.

واختتم: “يحاول الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم وضع حدود للأندية التي لا تتبع أي حكومات، لهذا ندعم فكرة دوري السوبر الأوروبي، لأن المنافسة فيها ستكون أكثر مساواة لأنها ستعتمد على الجدارة الرياضية، وليس كما يروجوا بأن الأندية الضعيفة ليست موجودة في تلك البطولة”.

Sheffield Shield final could be axed

The Sheffield Shield final could be cut from Australia’s domestic season in two years as Cricket Australia continues to search for ways to expand the Twenty20 Big Bash

The Sheffield Shield final could be cut from Australia’s domestic season in two years as Cricket Australia continues to search for ways to expand the Twenty20 Big Bash. Squeezing a longer Twenty20 tournament in would make it difficult to keep same amount of games in the Sheffield Shield and FR Cup.One option is to scrap the first-class final and instead award the trophy to the state that finishes on top of the table after the ten regular rounds. The five-day decider was only introduced in 1982-83 and the enormous advantage of hosting – the home team needs only to draw to win the title – has caused some dull finals dominated by ridiculously high scores.”There’s obviously been discussion around the traps,” Tony Dodemaide, Cricket Victoria’s chief executive, told the . “To expand the T20, the alternatives are to extend the season or to find room, and trimming either the Shield or one-day cricket are the only alternatives. The other thing to take into account with the Shield final is that six venues have to make provision for staging it, but five of them wind up idle in the end.”Cricket Australia wants to fit in more Big Bash matches from 2011-12, without impinging on the international calendar or, if possible, the Sheffield Shield. One suggestion was to start the four-day competition in northern Australia early in the season, when southern venues could be too wet, although it wasn’t an idea that pleased Australia’s captain Ricky Ponting.

موندو ديبورتيفو: محمد صلاح يرفع معنويات ليفربول ويستعيد الثقة قبل صدام مانشستر سيتي

قاد المصري محمد صلاح فريقه ليفربول الإنجليزي لاكتساح جلاسكو رينجر بنتيجة 7-1 في دور المجموعات بدوري أبطال أوروبا.

وسجل صلاح أسرع هاتريك في منافسات دوري أبطال أوروبا، ويأتي ذلك بعد بداية هادئة للمحترف المصري منذ انطلاقة الموسم. ملخص لمسات محمد صلاح وأهدافه في مباراة ليفربول ورينجرز

ويخوض ليفربول مباراة هامة أمام مانشستر سيتي يوم الأحد القادم في منافسات الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

وسلطت صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية، الضوء على محمد صلاح ومستواه قبل تلك المواجهة.

محمد صلاح لديه هدفين فقط في الدوري الإنجليزي بهذا الموسم، حيث يحتل ليفربول المركز العاشر، بما لا يقل عن 14 نقطة خلف آرسنال المتصدر و13 نقطة خلف مانشستر سيتي الذي يحتل المركز الثاني.

استحوذ الإحباط على آنفيلد ولكن الفوز 7-1 في دوري أبطال أوروبا رفع معنويات جماهير فريق يورجن كلوب.

أكثر من ذلك لأن صلاح حقق أسرع ثلاثية في تاريخ بطولة أوروبا المذكورة، في 6 دقائق و12 ثانية.

عشر نقاط في 8 مباريات هي أسوأ بداية لليفربول في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز (منذ 2012-13، عندما احتل المركز السابع).

وأشارت موندو: “لكن إذا كان صلاح هو صلاح، فإن ليفربول وجماهيره يشعرون أن كل شيء ممكن ضد السيتي”.

وتابعت الصحيفة خلال تقريرها: “بفضل الثلاثية، أصبح المصري هداف دوري أبطال أوروبا هذا برصيد 5 أهداف، وتعادل مع إيرلينج هالاند (السيتي) وروبرت ليفاندوفسكي (برشلونة)”.

يتفقون في آنفيلد على أن صلاح، لم يكن بإمكانه اختيار وقت أفضل لاستعادة فعاليته قبل المباراة مباشرة ضد البطل الإنجليزي الحالي مانشستر سيتي والذي لعب معه ليفربول دور البطولة في المعركة الأكثر حيوية في البريميرليج في السنوات الأخيرة.

Palmeiras recusa proposta de quase R$ 50 milhões da China por Dudu

MatériaMais Notícias

Constantemente procurado por times do exterior, Dudu recebeu nos últimos dias uma proposta do Changchun Yatai, da China. O clube asiático estava disposto a pagar 12 milhões de euros (R$ 46,9 milhões) pelo atacante, mas ele e o Palmeiras recusaram a investida. O camisa 7 diz que sua vontade é permanecer no Verdão e cumprir seu contrato, válido até o fim de 2020.

– Estou muito feliz aqui no Palmeiras, espero continuar aqui. Tiveram algumas oportunidades para a Turquia; agora há pouco, esses dias atrás, surgiram algumas oportunidades da China, mas sempre falei com o (Alexandre) Mattos e com o presidente (Maurício Galiotte) que estou bem feliz aqui. Espero cumprir meu contrato para conquistar os títulos que ainda restam na minha cabeça para sair aqui do Palmeiras, ou continuar bastante ainda aqui no Palmeiras – afirmou o camisa 7, em entrevista à ESPN Brasil.

Em 2017, os turcos Besiktas e Fenerbahce mostraram interesse no atacante, mas as ofertas foram todas consideradas baixas demais, em torno de 9 milhões de euros (R$ 35 milhões). O próprioChangchun Yatai já tentou em outras duas oportunidades levá-lo.

Dudu custou 6 milhões de euros (R$ 23,2 milhões) ao Palmeiras – o clube comprou a segunda metade de seus direitos econômicos no início do ano, com aporte da Crefisa. Embora dono de 100% do atacante, o Verdão terá de devolver à patrocinadora os R$ 10 milhões que gastou na operação. O restante fica no clube.

Contratado em 2015, Dudu tem contrato com o Palmeiras até o fim de 2020 – em fevereiro houve uma renovação, com aumento salarial e da multa rescisória. Com 161 jogos e 41 gols pelo clube, o capitão tem dois títulos pelo Verdão: a Copa do Brasil, de 2015, e o Campeonato Brasileiro de 2016.

Quando perguntado sobre o que falta conquistar no Palmeiras, o capitão responde que ainda sente falta de um título internacional. O clube já está classificado para a fase de grupos da Libertadores do ano que vem.

Celtic: Hoops make another Mehdi Ghayedi approach

Celtic are not giving up on their pursuit of Shabab Al-Ahli forward Mehdi Ghayedi and want a move finalised before the winter break ends, Varzesh Seh report.

The Lowdown: Attacking additions

The Hoops have already bolstered their attacking ranks with the acquisition of Daizen Maeda, while young starlet Johnny Kenny has joined as a more long-term prospect.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/celtic-updates-copy/” title=”Celtic updates!! (Copy)” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Ange Postecoglou also wants to make Jota’s loan move a permanent one, with the Hoops now eyeing another wide forward.

Ghayedi, labelled as an ‘extraordinary killer’ finisher by @ADSportsTV, can play anywhere across the front three and has scored 41 goals during his career so far.

The Latest: Another approach

Reports earlier this month suggested that Celtic have had a bid turned down for Ghayedi.

Now, Varzesh Seh claim that Postecoglou is desperate for the 23-year-old to join the club during the winter break, with the Hoops making another approach.

The winter break comes to an end for Celtic in just over 72 hours on Monday when they take on Hibernian at Parkhead, so this one could move pretty quickly if the manager wants it done by then.

The Verdict: Interesting…

Postecoglou was planning to raid untapped markets this month, and it seems as if the Hoops are looking in the UAE with Ghayedi.

The Iran international only joined Shabab Al-Ahli in the summer and is under contract until 2026, so it could take a tempting offer for the Dubai club to sell.

Transfermarkt have a probability of a move to Celtic Park at 76%, so even though Postecoglou recently slammed transfer lies in the media, a move for Ghayedi could be one to monitor before the end of the month.

Segundo jornal, seleção do Chile tem interesse na contratação de Rueda

MatériaMais Notícias

Reinaldo Rueda continua sendo sondado e especulado para trabalhar em outros lugares. Segundo o jornal chileno “El Deportivo”, o comandante do Flamengo seria o alvo principal para treinar o Chile, que ficou de fora da Copa do Mundo da Rússia em 2018 e agora passa por reformulação.

De acordo com os chilenos, a Federação Chilena de Futebol já tem tido conversas para contar com o trabalho do colombiano e o mesmo teria gostado do que ouviu de proposta para ser o novo treinador da “La Roja”.

Há poucos dias, o rumor era de que Reinaldo Rueda estaria tendo conversas para voltar à Colômbia, por conta da sua mãe, que está passando por problemas de saúde.

O comandante falou nesta terça-feira sobre esse interesse do Deportivo Cali e fez questão de ressaltar o período de contrato que tem com o Flamengo (até o fim de 2018).

– Se minha mãe melhorasse eu indo para a Colômbia, iria amanhã. Mas não sou médico, tenho que ter fé. Não vou mudar nada. Tomara que ela me espere. Todos sabem do contrato que tenho com o Flamengo, não sei de onde surgiu esse boato (de estar acertado com o Deportivo Cali-COL).

West Ham pushing for Bailey Cadamarteri

West Ham United are continuing to push hard to sign Sheffield Wednesday starlet Bailey Cadamarteri.

What’s the story?

According to recent claims from The Star, the likes of Brentford and David Moyes’ side have been scouting the 16-year-old forward, and there has now been an update on that transfer race.

The report said: “If it was up to the Hammers, then the talented teen would be on his way down south in the future, with David Moyes’ side believed to be extremely keen on trying to sign him.

“The Star understands that the London-based outfit have already made enquiries about the striker as they seek to tempt him further south, however indications are that the forward is happy where he is and is eager to keep progressing at the club with whom he’s been since he was just nine-years-old.”Moyes would love him

Despite only being 16, the young striker has caught the eye for the Owls’ under-18s and under-23 sides, and he netted a superb hat-trick in a 5-1 win over Ipswich Town last season.

His father Danny, who of course has had Premier League experience himself having played for the likes of Everton, Fulham and Sheffield United, spoke to The Star about his son’s potential, saying: “It’s great for him, and physically he can cope because he’s quite a big boy for his age. It’s nice experience for him.

“He started to get a bit more credit for his own performances then, rather than people thinking it was because of me.”

At just 16, Cadamarteri is very much an exciting young attacker who would be one for the future at the London Stadium, but Moyes would certainly be delighted to get him in through the door and shore up the Hammers’ future up front.

While Hammers fans may not see Cadamarteri really come into his own any time soon were he to make the move down south, he could develop even quicker and realise his potential with the help of the Hammers’ Premier League-quality coaches and staff.

Meanwhile, West Ham have made this predator their main transfer target…

كلوب: أتمنى حصول جوارديولا على استراحة لمدة 4 سنوات

تحدث يورجن كلوب، مدرب فريق ليفربول، عن منافسته المستمرة مع نظيره مدرب مانشستر سيتي بيب جوارديولا قبل مباراة اليوم المرتقبة.

ويستضيف ملعب “الأنفيلد” مباراة ليفربول ومانشستر سيتي، الأحد، في قمة منافسات الجولة الحادية عشر من الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

درب المدربان الألماني والإسباني الفرق ضد بعضهما البعض لأكثر من تسع سنوات، منذ أن تغلب بوروسيا دورتموند على بايرن ميونيخ في كأس السوبر الألماني 2013.

انتصر كلوب في 11 مباراة مقابل تسع مرات لجوارديولا حيث نما الاحترام المتبادل بينهما.

وقال كلوب في تصريحات نشرتها صحيفة “جارديان” الإنجليزية: “لقد أخبرني عندما لا نكون مسؤولين عن أي ناد، سنجلس معًا ونأخذ كأسًا من النبيذ، على الرغم من أنني لست شاربًا كبيرًا للنبيذ”.

وأضاف: “أنا لست روجر فيدرر وبيب ليس رافائيل نادال لكنهما يتنافسان على أعلى مستوى وما زالا أفضل أصدقاء، أنا وبيب لسنا أفضل أصدقاء لأننا لا نعرف بعضنا البعض، لكنني أحترمه كثيرًا وأعلم أنه يحترم ما نقوم به أيضًا، لذلك لا بأس”.

وأكد: “لست بحاجة إلى عدم الاحترام لمجرد أنكما منافسان، أود أن أقول إننا نتمتع بعلاقة جيدة بدون لقاء، وبدون حديث، لكنها محترمة وخلال المباريات، كلانا منافس، لكن حتى الآن قمنا بعمل جيد حقًا في استبعاد أي عدم احترام من كل الأشياء، لذلك بصراحة إذا كان الوضع على ما هو عليه، فليس لدي مشكلة في ذلك”.

وردًا على سؤال عما إذا كان يرغب في استمرار جوارديولا في الموسم المقبل، قال كلوب مازحًا: “أفضل أن يكون بيب في إجازة لمدة أربع سنوات، إنه أفضل مدرب في العالم ويثبت طوال الوقت، كل يوم، أن ما يفعله مميز، إنه أمر خاص حقًا وأنا أحترم ذلك”.

يُذكر أن العقد الحالي للمدرب بيب جوارديولا سينتهي مع مانشستر سيتي في صيف 2023، أي في نهاية الموسم الحالي.
