Offspinner Harbhajan Singh has said he was “more surprised” than hurt after being dropped from India’s squad for the first two ODIs against England. Harbhajan was left out after a disappointing injury-ridden performance on the recent tour of England. The selectors chose to give Punjab legspinner Rahul Sharma a chance along with Tamil Nadu offspinner R Ashwin.”I wouldn’t say I was hurt. I was more surprised,” Harbhajan told . “I wish the younger guys all the best. I am more than happy to share my experience with them like I was helped by Sachin Tendulkar, Anil Kumble and Sourav Ganguly while I was coming up.”Harbhajan took only two wickets in 69.4 overs against England at an average of 143.50 and economy-rate of 4.11. He suffered a stomach injury during the second Test and was ruled out of the last two matches and the limited-overs series that followed. India lost the Test series 0-4 and the ODI series 0-3.Harbhajan’s bowling has been criticised of late, with his 17 wickets in 17 ODIs in 2011 coming at an average of 41.29. He has, however, conceded fewer than five runs an over in each of his previous seven ODI series.Harbhajan said it was not always possible to take wickets in the shorter format with the emphasis being on stemming the run flow, which India’s attack struggled to do.”First of all you must decide what you expect from a bowler in limited-overs format. Do you expect him to take a five-for every time he bowls his 10 overs or do you want him to put the squeeze on and force the opposition to play into your hands. In a low-scoring match, you would expect him to take wickets. On a belter of a track, you want him to dry up the runs.”In the Caribbean, I took 1 for 24 from 10 overs, besides scoring 41 in Antigua to clinch the one-day series. I must have done something right to have survived for 13 years. Who can be more concerned about my performance than me?”Harbhajan, who is currently leading the India Green side in the domestic NKP Salve Challenger Trophy, said that he would focus on what the team wanted from him. “I can’t keep adjusting every time somebody fancies writing about me. All I can say is that I am now completely fit and full of vigour. I am ready to put my best foot forward.”

Verdão volta aos treinos com Vitinho, ligação de Tchê Tchê e um desfalque

MatériaMais Notícias

O Palmeiras voltou nesta segunda-feira aos treinos após 11 dias de folga. Já sem Tchê Tchê e Keno, negociados nesta janela de transferências, o elenco fez testes físicos e cardiológicos na Academia de Futebol. Vitinho, de volta do Barcelona B, foi a novidade, enquanto Felipe Melo teve um atraso no seu voo dos Estados Unidos e não conseguiu chegar a tempo.

Ainda não foi divulgado se Vitinho viajará com o grupo para o Panamá e Costa Rica, na quinta-feira, mas o garoto de 20 anos tem contrato até 2021 e, a princípio, deve permanecer no grupo de Roger Machado. Ele é cria das categorias de base do Verdão.

Enquanto aconteciam as atividades na parte interna da Academia, Tchê Tchê aproveitou para matar a saudade dos amigos e fez uma chamada de vídeo com Thiago Santos. O meio-campista do Dínamo de Kiev (UCR) ainda bateu papo com Deyverson no intervalo dos testes.

Fernando Prass, Antônio Carlos e Diogo Barbosa, todos lesionados antes da pausa para a Copa do Mundo, fizeram treinos físicos com o restante dos companheiros. Guerra, que operou o pé esquerdo, ainda está com o local imobilizado e fez um trabalho específico. Ele não deve viajar com o restante do grupo.

Nesta terça, os trabalhos serão em dois períodos – aquele na parte da manhã serão abertos à imprensa. O time ainda treina na quarta no Brasil e no fim do dia segue viagem para o torneio amistoso na América Central.

Serão mais de 20 dias de trabalho até a próxima partida oficial, contra o Santos, 19 de julho. A comissão técnica considera que, depois de uma pré-temporada muito curta em janeiro, terá mais tempo de preparar fisicamente o grupo para outra sequência desgastante de jogos na metade final de 2018 – com Brasileiro, Copa do Brasil e Libertadores a disputar, serão frequentes semanas com jogos de “quarta e domingo”.

محمد عبد الله: لاعب الأهلي يستحق قيادة الفريق أمام ريال مدريد.. وكولر "مدرب عادل"

يرى محمد عبد الله لاعب الأهلي والزمالك السابق، أن السويسري مارسيل كولر المدير الفني للمارد الأحمر، ناجح في رفع الضغط عن اللاعبين، مُشيرًا إلى قدرة الفريق على تحقيق الفوز أمام ريال مدريد بكأس العالم للأندية.

وكان الأهلي قد نجح في الفوز على أوكلاند سيتي في مباراة الدور التمهيدي الأول بثلاثية دون رد، ثم واجه سياتل في المباراة الثانية وفاز عليه بهدف نظيف سجله محمد مجدي أفشة، ليضرب موعدًا مع ريال مدريد.

وقال عبد الله في تصريحاته عبر برنامج “الريمونتادا” على قناة “المحور”: “كولر يحكم بين لاعبي الأهلي بالعدل والبديل مثل الأساسي، المدرب السويسري رفع الضغط عن اللاعبين، فضلا عن القوة الدفاعية للفريق تحت قيادته”.

وعن مواجهة الأهلي وريال مدريد، قال: “بالتأكيد مباراة صعبة، الفريق الإسباني على الورق هو الأقرب لكن لا أحد يضمن شيء، خاصة مع كم الإصابات التي تعرض لها لاعبو الريال، يُعتبر القوام الأساسي لن يُشارك”.

واختتم: “أحمد عبد القادر لاعب موهوب ويستحق قيادة الأهلي أمام ريال مدريد، وأطالب اللاعبين بعدم الرهبة من بطل أوروبا واللعب بدون ضغوط”.

Strauss heads to India training camp

Andrew Strauss, the England Test captain, will be among seven key players heading overseas in December to step up their preparations for the series against Pakistan in UAE early next year

Andrew Strauss, the England Test captain, will be among seven key players heading overseas in December to step up their preparations for the series against Pakistan in UAE early next year.Strauss, Matt Prior and Eoin Morgan, who is recovering from the shoulder injury that ruled him out of the end of the English season and one-day tour of India, will travel to Pune and Mumbai. Meanwhile, four fast bowlers – James Anderson, Chris Tremlett, Stuart Broad and Graham Onions, will head to Potchefstroom in South Africa for a training camp. Both trips are part of the England Performance Programme for the winter.Like Morgan, Tremlett and Broad are both aiming to make comebacks after injury. Tremlett hasn’t played since the first Test against India, at Lord’s, after being ruled out of the remainder of the series with a back injury. Broad, England’s Twenty20 captain, suffered a shoulder injury in the home one-day series against India which ruled him out of the return tour in October.Anderson was rested for the tour of India after a heavy workload during the summer and will be expected to lead the attack on flat pitches in the UAE alongside Broad. On Wednesday, Anderson tweeted: “Had my first bowl for two months yesterday, bleep test and fitness testing today. I can’t move and my feet are bleeding.”Tremlett will be aiming to reclaim his Test spot which he had cemented following a successful return to the side during the Ashes series, but in his absence Tim Bresnan has made a convincing case to remain in the team having played a key role against India.Onions is another option for the selectors and they have been very keen to get him back in the set-up following his lengthy lay-off with a serious back injury that threatened his career a year ago. He was drafted into the squad for the final Test against India, at The Oval, when there was doubt over Anderson and was then called into the one-day squad on the subcontinent after Chris Woakes flew home injury although didn’t make an appearance.Meanwhile, Strauss and Prior are Test specialists following Strauss’s retirement from ODIs and Prior’s omission from the limited-overs set-up. Both players returned to their counties at the end of the domestic season, but haven’t had any action since mid-September. Strauss hasn’t hit a Test century since his 110 against Australia, at Brisbane, last November and only has two in his last 26 matches.”These camps will not only see the players working on their cricketing and physical preparations through training but will also involve matches in highly suitable conditions which will provide an invaluable form of practice prior to commencing a Test series in sub-continental conditions,” David Parsons, the England performance director, said.”The players attending these camps didn’t participate in England’s recent ODI tour of India or have been sidelined through injury so this is the ideal opportunity to build up their preparations during an important period leading into January and provides the talented young players on both the EPP and EDP programmes a chance to train alongside and learn from some of the very best.”England’s tour against Pakistan in UAE during January and February includes three Tests, four one-day internationals and three Twenty20s. Their winter is then concluded with a two-Test series in Sri Lanka at the end of March. Although currently ranked No. 1 in Test cricket they could well have lost that position by the time they resume action if South Africa win all their home Test matches against Australia and Sri Lanka.

Pará brilha em vitória do Guarani e avisa: 'Vamos brigar pelo acesso'

MatériaMais Notícias

Há sete jogos sem perder na Série B do Brasileiro, o Guarani venceu o Coritiba de virada, por 2 a 1, na última segunda, e Pará foi o herói bugrino. O lateral-esquerdo fez um gol de falta e deu a assistência para o outro tento no triunfo, que colocou a equipe de Campinas no G4, na terceira posição.

– Fiquei muito contente por ter marcado, mas, principalmente, com o resultado. Minha mulher e meu filho estavam no estádio e foi emocionante ouvir a torcida gritar o meu nome. Tenho treinado muito esse tipo de cobrança e espero poder ajudar mais vezes – disse o lateral.

O Bugre chegou aos 23 pontos depois de 15 rodadas na Série B e vive um bom momento. Nesta série de sete partidas sem derrota, a equipe vem de duas vitórias seguidas, justamente contra times que estavam à sua frente na tabela.

Pará tem papel importante neste bom momento, já que desde que chegou ao clube, emprestado pelo Cruzeiro em maio, o time foi derrotado apenas uma vez em nove partidas. Retrospecto que faz o lateral confiar na briga pelo acesso.

– Estamos muito focados para manter o bom momento. Ainda faltam 23 rodadas, mas, se continuarmos na mesma pegada, vamos brigar pelo acesso, que é o nosso objetivo – concluiu.

Após revés, Fla se reapresenta e terá mudanças para enfrentar o Botafogo

MatériaMais Notícias

Após a derrota para o São Paulo no Maracanã, o elenco do Flamengo voltou a trabalhar nesta quinta-feira, no Ninho do Urubu, já visando o clássico com o Botafogo. Para a partida, o técnico Maurício Barbieri fará mudanças no time: Cuéllar volta a ficar à disposição após cumprir suspensão e Everton Ribeiro, titular na quarta, recebeu o terceiro cartão amarelo e não enfrenta o Alvinegro.

Quem iniciou a partida contra o São Paulo fez apenas um trabalho regenerativo nesta quinta-feira, na academia do CT. Os demais foram ao Campo 5 e fizeram trabalhos técnicos e táticos. O coletivo, com a presença de atletas do sub-20, foi comandado por Maurício Barbieri. Henrique Dourado volta a ser opção para o clássico de sábado – ele cumpriu suspensão no jogo contra o São Paulo.

Se a volta de Cuéllar ao time titular é certa, com Rômulo voltando ao banco de reservas, o substituto de Everton Ribeiro ainda está indefinido. Barbieri terá a atividade de sexta-feira para buscar a melhor opção. No elenco, não há outro atletas com características similares ao do camisa 7, e os nomes mais cotados para entrarem na equipe são o do emia Jean Lucas e do atacante Uribe.

Outra possibilidade é a permanência de Rômulo – ou a entrada de Arão – ao lado de Cuéllar, deslocando Paquetá para a direita e dando liberdade para o camisa 11, que vem atuando atrás de Diego e auxiliando na saída de bola.

O elenco do Flamengo volta a trabalhar às 15h, na sexta, no Ninho do Urubu. Defendendo a liderança do Brasileirão, o Rubro-Negro contará mais uma vez com o apoio da torcida: mais de 26 mil ingressos foram vendidos até segunda.

تقارير توضح موقف بوسكيتس من مباراة برشلونة ومانشستر يونايتد

كشفت تقارير صحفية آخر التطورات المتعلقة بسيرجيو بوسكيتس قائد برشلونة وموقفه من اللحاق بمواجهة مانشستر يونايتد في الدوري الأوروبي.

ويلتقي برشلونة مع مانشستر يونايتد في مباراة الذهاب بمنافسات الدوري الأوروبي يوم الخميس المقبل.

وتعرض بوسكيتس للإصابة بالتواء في الرباط الجانبي لكاحله الأيسر، خلال مباراة برشلونة أمام إشبيلية وتم استبداله مبكرًا بالدقيقة الثامنة.

وبحسب صحيفة “آس” الإسبانية، يستبعد الجهاز الطبي لبرشلونة جاهزية بوسكيتس لمباراة مانشستر يونايتد.

وأوضح التقرير أنه تم استبعاد إمكانية استخدام حقن مسكن للألم في كاحله الأيسر، مما يعني أنه لن يكون قادرًا على المشاركة في مواجهة الذهاب الخميس القادم.

Jucilei treina sem limitações e deve ser relacionado pelo São Paulo

MatériaMais Notícias

No dia seguinte à derrota para o argentino Colón, pela Copa Sul-Americana, no Morumbi, Jucilei se tornou a boa notícia no São Paulo. O volante está plenamente recuperado de estiramento que sofreu na região do adutor da coxa esquerda, há duas semanas, e treinou sem qualquer limitação com os jogadores que não foram titulares na partida dessa quinta-feira.

O treinamento da manhã desta sexta-feira ocorreu sob chuva o tempo todo no CT da Barra Funda. Jucilei participou do trabalho técnico em campo reduzido e de todas as outras atividades comandadas por Diego Aguirre. Ao fim dos exercícios, relatou estar “100%”. Deve ser, ao menos, relacionado no jogo contra o Vasco, no domingo, no Morumbi, pela Campeonato Brasileiro.

O camisa 8 se machucou ainda no primeiro tempo da vitória sobre o Flamengo, no dia 18, no Maracanã. Ficou fora das vitórias sobre Corinthians e Cruzeiro e da derrota para o Grêmio, pelo Brasileiro, sendo substituído por Liziero (Luan, recém-promovido das categorias de base, chegou a forma dupla de volantes no Mineirão), e também esteve ausente diante do Colón, com o recém-contratado lateral-direito Bruno Peres atuando no meio-campo ao lado de Hudson.

A atividade também teve a presença também do goleiro Sidão, do volante Liziero e do zagueiro Arboleda, titulares poupados por Aguirre contra o Colón, além de Shaylon, Gonzalo Carneiro e Brenner, que entraram no segundo tempo (Brenner foi expulso no fim). Os titulares na derrota para os argentinos realizaram somente recuperação física no Reffis e devem treinar no campo apenas neste sábado, sem a presença da imprensa no CT da Barra Funda.

No campo, ainda estiveram fazendo trabalho diferente e leve, com bola, o zagueiro Rodrigo Caio, em recuperação de cirurgia no pé esquerda realizada no fim de maio, e o lateral-direito Régis, que se recondiciona fisicamente depois de ter o contrato suspenso pela diretoria. Ambos seguem como desfalques.

Neste domingo, a provável escalação do São Paulo tem: Sidão; Militão, Arboleda, Bruno Alves e Reinaldo; Hudson, Liziero (Jucilei) e Nenê; Rojas, Everton e Diego Souza. O zagueiro Anderson Martins cumprirá suspensão por acúmulo de cartões amarelos.

O São Paulo pode assumir a liderança do Campeonato Brasileiro se vencer o Vasco, no jogo das 16h deste domingo, no Morumbi, e o Flamengo perder do Grêmio, em Porto Alegre, no sábado. O Tricolor está em segundo lugar, a dois pontos do Rubro-Negro carioca, primeiro colocado da competição.

أنسو فاتي يوضح موقفه من الرحيل عن برشلونة في نهاية الموسم

أوضح جناح الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي برشلونة، أنسو فاتي، موقفه من الرحيل عن قلعة “كامب نو” مع نهاية الموسم الحالي رغم استمرار عقده حتى يونيو 2027.

وارتبط فاتي في الأسابيع الماضية بإمكانية المغادرة من برشلونة بسبب عدم قدرته على استعادة مستواه الفني قبل الإصابة في غضروف الركبة وهو ما أدى إلى ابتعاده عن المشاركة في الكثير من المباريات تحت قيادة، تشافي هيرنانديز.

وتحدث فاتي في تصريحات خلال حضوره حدث في مؤسسة “Relats Solidaris” الخيرية، وقال: “لا يزال عقدي مع برشلونة حتى 2027، سعيد هنا ورغبتي هي الاستمرار مع الفريق لسنوات عديدة”.

وأضاف: “أركز تمامًا في التدريبات والمباريات مع برشلونة، أنتظر كل التحديات المقبل عليها النادي في جميع البطولات”.

وتابع: “لدي رغبة في استعادة ثقتي بنفسي وتطوير أدائي والعودة للتألق المعروف عني من قبل جماهير برشلونة”.

وعن مباراة مانشستر يونايتد في إياب دور الـ 16 من الدوري الأوروبي: “نحن برشلونة ولا يجب أن نخاف، الفريق يمر بفترة جيدة للغاية ونؤدي بشكل رائع”.
