Após garantir o triunfo por 1 a 0 sobre o Vitória, pela 20ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro, o Avaí volta aos gramados neste domingo para enfrentar o São Paulo na Ressacada. Ocupando a 19ª colocação na tabela, a equipe busca uma reação na competição para deixar a zona de rebaixamento e cravar sua permanência na Série A.
Apesar de ter se afastado da zona de degola, o São Paulo se distancia do Leão por apenas um ponto. Ciente da dificuldade do confronto que terá duas equipes brigando para continuar na primeira divisão, o lateral-esquerdo João Paulo afirma que o Avaí vai entrar em campo com tudo, para conquistar uma vitória diante de sua torcida.
-Vamos encarar um grande adversário, de alto nível, e que está nesta briga contra o rebaixamento. Tem tudo para ser uma grande partida, mas estaremos em casa, diante do nosso torcedor e não podemos deixar escapar o triunfo. É um grande jogo – afirmou o jogador.
Ainda de acordo com João Paulo, o Avaí vai continuar trabalhando pesado nos treinos para ter bom desempenho em campo e iniciar uma sequência de vitórias na competição neste segundo turno.
– Temos que iniciar uma boa sequência agora para deixarmos o Z4. O primeiro passo é esse. Vamos continuar trabalhando firme para que isso seja possível. Nosso grupo está muito confiante na conquista deste objetivo – finalizou o lateral.

A vitória do último domingo diante do Atlético-PR por 2 a 0 na Ilha do Urubu mostrou mais uma vez a evolução do sistema defensivo do Flamengo. Desde que Reinaldo Rueda chegou e assumiu o comando do Rubro-Negro, o time não levou gols.
O jogo contra o Furacão foi o quarto do colombiano à frente do Flamengo. Equipe que vinha recebendo muitas críticas pelas falhas defensivas agora chama atenção pela regularidade e segurança.
– Temos feito um bom trabalho e teremos um bom complemento nas funções, na tática grupal ofensiva e defensiva. Creio que e importante para o Flamengo a experiência e o conhecimento – disse Rueda.
Dos quatro jogos em que a defesa não foi vazada, dois deles foram contra o Botafogo, válidos pela semifinal da Copa do Brasil, onde o time se portou muito bem. As outras duas partidas foram contra Atlético-GO e Atlético-PR no Brasileirão.
Reinaldo Rueda também ressaltou a importância do time seguir se fortalecendo para ganhar confiança nas competições que ainda disputa em 2017.
– É importante que a equipe esteja se fortalecendo. Todos os jogadores estão disponíveis para jogar e isso é muito importante.

Steve Waugh, the former Australia captain, has said he has no plans at the moment to coach Kolkata Knight Riders

Coaching in Twenty20 is not Steve Waugh’s priority yet•AFP
Steve Waugh, the former Australia captain, has said he has no plans at the moment to coach Kolkata Knight Riders, the IPL team that on Thursday sacked John Buchanan as its director of cricket. Waugh’s name has been doing the rounds along with those of two fellow former Australian cricketers, Dav Whatmore and Michael Bevan.”Twenty20 is an exciting format,” Waugh said. “It’s surely captured people’s imagination [and] I like watching it. But coaching-wise I’m not so sure. It’s not my priority yet.”I don’t know about the future but at the moment I am certainly not doing it as I have no time,” he said on the sidelines of an event in New Delhi to launch the India chapter of the Steve Waugh Foundation Global.Waugh has no coaching experience but has close links with Kolkata – he has set up homes for children in the city and is a regular, and hugely popular, visitor there. His profile in Kolkata is very different to that of Buchanan, who antagonised local fans by overseeing the team’s disastrous season – one in which the local hero, Sourav Ganguly, was stripped of the team captaincy.Opinion over Buchanan’s coaching style has been split but on Thursday Chris Gayle, the West Indies captain who also plays for Kolkata, said he had learned a “lot of good points” from working under Buchanan. “Whenever you are around someone different, you tend to learn different things,” Gayle told reporters at The Oval ahead of his team’s World Twenty20 semi-final.”Sometimes you can take it back to your country. It was something different for me and it was good,” Gayle said. “A lot of good points were made there. The experience was really good.”Buchanan was released from his contract by the Kolkata franchise on Thursday after weeks of speculation following a disastrous season when the team ended bottom of the table and was plagued by a series of off-field controversies. No replacement has been announced as yet.
Newcastle journalist Liam Kennedy has dropped an exciting transfer claim, regarding the upcoming January window.
What’s the talk?
The reporter has claimed that he is anticipating the Magpies to pursue ‘flagships’ in the window to make people take notice of them. He has named Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale as an example, with Newcastle potentially targeting big names who are not in the peak of their powers.
He told GIVEMESPORT:
“Newcastle United, last summer there was a lot of talk of Gareth Bale. These players are damaged goods, but they are quality players who are the type of flagships that make people stand up and take notice.
“I would anticipate, as well as being some solid signings and levelling up in a lot of positions, I think they’ll want that feather in the cap. I think they’ll want one or two who really get people standing up and taking notice.”
Delight
Newcastle fans will surely be delighted with this claim for multiple reasons. For starters, it gives the supporters a reason to get excited ahead of the January window as this update tees up a busy month for PIF as they attempt to bolster the squad with new additions.
The Magpies are currently 19th in the Premier League table and are yet to pick up their first win in the division, with ten games already down the drain. This is why the St. James’ Park faithful need a reason to be cheerful and these quotes from Kennedy could provide one, with the prospect of a marquee signing arriving in January an exciting one.
Secondly, Kennedy names Bale as the type of player they could target. The Welshman has only played three games in La Liga this season, but enjoyed an impressive 2020/21 campaign on loan at Tottenham in the Premier League and could still have a huge influence on the side.
[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/check-out-the-latest-newcastle-pif-news-martinez-ward-prowse” title= “Read the latest Newcastle news!”]
He produced 11 goals and two assists in 20 league matches for Spurs, starting ten of those games. This shows that whilst he may be ‘damaged goods’ per Kennedy, he has the ability to come in at Newcastle and help them win games at this level.
That is why fans will be delighted at the prospect of a marquee, flagship, signing coming in during the January window, as they could inject some quality into the team. Whether that is Bale or another player with a similar profile remains to be seen, but supporters have a reason to be excited for now…

Steven Gerrard may struggle to persuade the Rangers board not to cash in if January offers arrive for ‘key men’, The Daily Record’s Keith Jackson has said.
The lowdown
Rangers announced a £23.5m loss for 2020/21 on Friday, taking their total losses under the current board to £73.8m across six years (via The Athletic).
Last summer, the Gers made just £788,000 through player sales, with centre-back George Edmondson the only player to depart in exchange for a transfer fee.
Joe Aribo, who has started every Premiership and Europa League game for Rangers so far this season, is among the players being linked with a move away ahead of 2022. According to Football Insider, Crystal Palace are monitoring the midfielder, who is valued at more than £10m.
The latest
Writing in The Daily Record’s Monday Jury, Jackson recalled that Gerrard had previously ‘resisted all attempts’ to raise funds through the sales of his ‘key men’ at Ibrox.
However, the journalist added that if the ‘latest numbers’ are anything to go by, the Rangers boss ‘may have a job on his hands’ to successfully resist player sales in the event of a fresh ‘lucrative bid’.
Jackson’s colleague Craig Swan added that Rangers are ‘surely not in a position to spend and it’s time to sell’.
The verdict
The Rangers board need to tread carefully. There may be financial needs to address, but they must be wary of pushing Gerrard away amid the reported interest of Premier League clubs such as Aston Villa.
That attention is said to present a ‘major dilemma’ for the manager, but it could become an easier decision for him if he faces the possibility of losing his best players at Ibrox.
Indeed, Gerrard has already voiced frustration about the lack of funds made available to him, and the latest eight-figure loss from the club could hinder him further still.

The IPL has come under heavy criticism from the Gauteng Cricket Board, which manages the Wanderers Stadium, over issues surrounding the hosting of matches at the ground during the league’s second season in South Africa early this year

Both Lalit Modi and the South African board have dismissed the GCB’s allegations as “completely baseless”•AFP
The IPL and its commissioner, Lalit Modi, have come under heavy criticism from the Gauteng Cricket Board (GCB), which manages the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg, over issues surrounding the hosting of matches at the ground during the second season of the Twenty20 league in South Africa early this year.In a strongly-worded internal document (dated June 16) that has been circulated among members of the Gauteng board, Ray Wentzel, the GCB treasurer, has accused the IPL of violating various norms, especially for the semi-finals and final on May 24, including attempts to forcibly take over all stadium operations, such as ticketing and parking systems.The issue has ramifications beyond the IPL and beyond sundry matters such as parking spaces and ticket prices; at stake is the future of the Wanderers, one of cricket’s most famous and historic grounds. The CSA board’s members’ forum has refused to allot any international matches to the Wanderers until the GCB apologises for its allegations and submits its match hosting conditions and, as a result, Wanderers has been stripped of a Test, an ODI and a Twenty20 game it was due to host during England’s tour later this year. This ban will not affect the Champions Trophy in September as it is an ICC event involving separate agreements but the tournament schedule released on Monday has only three matches at the Wanderers – which won’t host the final either.Barry Skjoldhammer, the GCB chairman, said the document is “only a draft” and not the final report and hence cannot be treated as an “accepted official document”. However, he said it had been circulated among members of the GCB. “We have certain reservations about the conduct of the IPL,” Skjoldhammer told Cricinfo. “But these are not so much against IPL as with Cricket South Africa (CSA) and the way in which they left us to deal with IPL on our own. We are in discussions and I am confident that the issue will be resolved.”The disputeJune 4: Gauteng Cricket Board (GCB) asks Cricket South Africa’s (CSA’s) audit and risk committee to investigate complaints regarding the contract between CSA and BCCI/IPL for hosting the Indian leagueJuly 10: CSA members forum warns that the South African board will not allot any international matches to Wanderers unless GCB apologises for allegations against BCCI/IPL July 15: Gauteng asks CSA to reply to the letter sent to its audit committee and seeks a meeting with CSA on the issue before July 24. It also raises the possibility of independent arbitrationJuly 17: CSA shifts one Twenty20 international, an ODI and a Test for the upcoming England tour from WanderersJuly 18: GCB claims that the matches cannot be shifted unless the dispute between CSA and Gauteng regarding the IPL is resolved.When contacted, Modi dismissed the GCB’s allegations as “completely baseless” and referred to the “clean stadium agreement” that the IPL had signed, which gives the league complete control of the venue, including ticketing and parking. “The IPL has enjoyed close and wonderful cooperation with CSA and officials in the seven other provinces in the country where our matches were staged,” he told Cricinfo.Gerald Majola, the CSA chief executive, said the South African cricket board has dismissed Gauteng’s allegations against the IPL and are awaiting an apology from the GCB in this regard.The Gauteng document, which runs to 35 pages including annexures, points to a series of disagreements between the GCB and IPL on a number of issues, ranging from parking spaces, pouring (alcohol) rights, hospitality requirements and ticket prices. “We have been exposed to multiple threats and accusations of dishonesty and lying,” it says. “The IPL’s total disregard of ethics, manners and responsible negotiations protocols reflects an arrogant disregard of their status as guests in South Africa and guests of the South African cricket community.”The document claims that “the most serious of all issues” was “Modi’s attempts to take control of the entire Stadium operation for the Semi-Final and Final, regardless of the cost or disruption”. It thanks the Gauteng provincial government and Johannesburg City Council for “assisting in what was a potentially catastrophic situation around the parking allocations, which had the potential to spill over into major tragedy along the lines of the Ellis Park disaster… if we had not been able to deal with this threat, GCB would have had no option but to have refused to allow the Semi Final to take place.”The document suggests, for instance, that the tussle for parking space between Gauteng and the IPL was yet to be resolved with just hours to go for the semi-final between Bangalore Royal Challengers and Chennai Super Kings at the Wanderers on May 23.The GCB’s biggest complaint against the IPL appears to be the manner in which it claims it has been misled on the requirement of parking during the semi-final and final. The internal document reproduces detailed email exchanges between Sundar Raman, the IPL CEO, and GCB in this regard and concludes: “When their demands for a re-allocation of the parking to which they had previously agreed in writing were rejected, the IPL initially put forward patently false claims that their demands were necessary for security reasons arising from the visit to the Final of President (Jacob) Zuma.”When these claims were refuted by GCB on the strength of information given to us by the Presidential Security Unit and by the responsible arm of the SAP, the IPL simply persisted in its demands and threatened to disrupt the operational security and efficiency of the semi-final and the final unless its demands were met.”The document ends with what appears to be a direct, personal attack against Modi. “With specific regard to any future dealings with the IPL and Commissioner Modi, in whatever capacity, the Board should be mindful of his unacceptable personal behaviour in a variety of different ways.”The GCB document also accuses Majola of adopting “a consistently sycophantic attitude towards the IPL’s demands and his total disregard of the rights of the provinces and their supporters”. “We have also been dismayed by the politicizing of the IPL and GCB disagreements by the President of CSA Dr Mtutuzeli Nyoka,” the document states.Majola said the CSA’s members forum, comprising all CSA affiliates, dismissed the criticisms by GCB against the management of the 2009 IPL by CSA, the IPL and the BCCI. “They [GCB] were instructed to apologise to all these parties and as yet no apology has been forthcoming,” he told Cricinfo. “GCB has called for a dispute with CSA to be declared, and this has pushed the matter into the legal arena and will be dealt with by CSA’s management committee.”Wentzel, the GCB treasurer, says in the document that the purpose “of this report is to give Board members an overview of our dealings with the IPL and CSA over the period leading up to and during the hosting of the IPL tournament in South Africa. Many issues have arisen in regard to which the Board will need to make policy and operational decisions for future events of this nature where cricket is played at our Stadium outside the control of existing national and international structures.”

وعندما سُئل عن ردهم اليوم على هزيمة الجولة الماضية أمام مانشستر يونايتد، قال أرنولد: “كان ذلك بالتأكيد ضروري، في أي وقت تتعرض فيه للهزيمة فأنت تريد الخروج وتفوز في مباراتك التالية”.
