Como sentimento, é muito bom ter o torcedor como ele torce aqui, no momento de dificuldade se coloca mais ao lado da equipe, aumenta o volume e isso dá força. Então, não é à toa o aproveitamento que temos aqui e temos que parabenizar esse comportamento do torcedor porque é único – disse Mano, na entrevista coletiva após a partida contra o Flamengo.

'Today was a nice sign' – Green hoping to trend upwards at No.3

Green made his first half-century at No.3 for Australia and hopes it’s a sign of things to come

Cameron Green made a vital 52•Associated Press

Cameron Green hopes that his vital half-century on the third day in Grenada can kick-start his career as a Test No. 3 having battled conditions where he admitted batters were often left “praying” that they weren’t undone by the unpredictable bounce.Having survived the second evening against a fired-up Jayden Seales, Green navigated a ball that was still new on the third morning, largely alongside the faultless Steven Smith in a stand of 93 that provided a cornerstone for Australia’s innings.After an early rain interruption, Green saw a delivery from Anderson Phillip shoot low past his off stump, beat wicketkeeper Shai Hope and run away for four byes. “Praying…that’s all you can really do,” he said. “You just try and forget about it as much as possible.”Related

Half-centuries from Smith and Green give Australia control

Hard work done but no pay day for Green as questions linger

Green was able to keep his focus and compile a 122-ball half-century that was brought up with a crunching straight drive, only to under edge his next delivery into the stumps and he tossed his bat to the ground in frustration.Still, this was Green’s most substantial contribution yet since being handed the No.3 role against South Africa in the World Test Championship final last month. It was a much-needed encouraging sign at a time when Australia’s top three remains under significant scrutiny.”You always need innings here and there just to get you back and get you going, hopefully today was certainly one of those,” he said. “A lot of good things I can get out of just spending time in the middle. I think the ball’s faced has been trending up. The runs haven’t been there, but there’s certainly little positives I can take out of it.”Hopefully my output can be a little bit better than it has been, but today was a nice sign that things are hopefully trending well.”Green, who fell four balls after being given a life in the first innings, added he does not take notice of what is being said about his game outside of the changing room, but he isn’t blind to the expectations of an Australia top-order batter.”You all know when you’re playing that there’s runs that need to be made certainly when you’re batting up the order for Australia,” he said. “It’s a tough game, so being able to bounce back from tough times is equally as important.”Unsurprisingly, it was a surface where Green never felt fully ‘in’ given a ball was rarely far away from playing a few tricks although he admitted it may not always have looked that way when Smith was on strike.”Certainly, last night was tricky [and then] with the new ball today you had to start again and there were a few ball changes, so I never really felt at any point it looked that good,” he said. “You’d probably ask a different question to Steve. I think he was batting on a different wicket. He’s clearly a class above and that’s a tough wicket, so to play as well as he did was incredible.”Cameron Green dropped his bat in frustration after being bowled by Shamar Joseph•AFP/Getty Images

Smith was so alert to the challenges of the pitch that after facing an early delivery from Phillip which kept low, he altered his trigger movement to stay stiller at the crease.”This innings, I decided to bat on middle to stay a bit more still [to] try and negate lbw as much as possible with the ball shooting a little bit low,” Smith told the broadcast after play. “Try and use my full face as much as possible. I thought I did that pretty well. Then anything loose, just try and cash in on it. You’ve got to try and put the bad balls away to put the pressure back on the bowler. It was a nice partnership with Greeny. I thought he played really nicely and sort of set us up for the rest of the innings.”Smith termed Australia as being in a “nice spot” with a lead of 254 and three wickets in hand heading into the fourth day although added a target over 300 would be the aim.”I don’t think the wicket is going to get any better to bat,” he said. “They’ll probably be a few more tricks, particularly with the newer ball. I think we saw today when they had that ball change, it started to do a few more things, and it was tricky. I think the new ball is going to be pretty crucial for us when we get that opportunity.”West Indies believe the chase remains within their grasp although allrounder Justin Greaves, who claimed the wickets of Smith and Beau Webster, said they need to take some lessons from how Australia’s middle-order has played.”The new ball does pretty much everything,” he said. “As soon as the ball gets a bit softer, it gets a bit easier for batting. Whatever score we can limit Australia to, possibly under 300, we’ve got to try and believe we can get it.”We just need to be positive when we go to bat. Probably taking some notes from both Travis Head and Beau Webster throughout the series…just having that positive mindset.”

Trevor Griffin to step down as Somerset women's coach

Association with Taunton included two KSL titles with Western Storm prior to the county era

Trevor Griffin, Somerset Women’s head coach, has decided to stand down at the end of the season, following the club’s disappointing results in the first year of the Tier 1 professional era.Griffin was named in the role in October 2024, having previously overseen the fortunes of Taunton-based Western Storm. However, Somerset finished bottom of the standings in the Blast, and are currently sixth out of eight in the 50-over competition, facing a battle to reach the semi-finals. They were also eliminated at the first hurdle in the Women’s County Cup, following a Super Over loss to Durham.”Now feels like the right time for the team to hear a new voice and for me to start my next chapter,” Griffin said. “The role of any leader is to identify what their team needs in order to continue to develop and grow, and I feel this is the best thing for the squad and for me. I feel that I need to recharge before focusing on my next opportunity.”I’m incredibly proud to have been the first Women’s Head Coach at Somerset and it’s been an honour to wear the Wyvern. I want to say a heartfelt thank you to all at the club for agreeing to this and I’d also like to thank the Members and supporters because it’s been a genuine privilege to be part of this journey. The backing from the fans has meant a great deal, and I’ll always be grateful for the support shown throughout my time here.”Griffin’s spell at Taunton was stretched across two separate spells with Western Storm, initially from 2017 to 2019 – during which time the team twice won the Kia Super League – and a second stint from 2022 onwards. He also coached at Sunrisers and Sydney Thunder in the BBL, as well as working with London Spirit in the Women’s Hundred.”I’m proud of what I’ve achieved so far,” he said. “Winning the KSL twice with Western Storm was very special. I was the first women’s coach to secure a role overseas and the first to win the Women’s Big Bash.”I’ve absolutely still got the coaching bug and my love for cricket remains as strong as ever. There are exciting opportunities on the horizon both here and abroad and I can’t wait to embrace these new challenges; I’m really energised and excited about what my next role will bring but Somerset will always hold a special place in my heart.”Somerset Director of Cricket, Andy Hurry, said: “Trevor has been synonymous with elite women’s cricket in the region for many years and everyone associated with the Club would like to thank Trevor for his hard work, dedication and passion over the years.”As the first professional Head Coach of Somerset Women, Trevor will always be a part of the history of the Club, and he leaves behind incredibly strong foundations on which the team can build and progress.”

هل يشعر ريال مدريد بالندم على صفقة أرنولد؟.. رومانو يحسم الجدل

يواجه لاعب فريق ريال مدريد، ترينت ألكسندر أرنولد، فترة صعبة في النادي الملكي، بعدما انتقل إلى “سانتياجو برنابيو” قادمًا من ليفربول في موسم الانتقالات الصيفي لعام 2025.

كان ترينت ألكسندر أرنولد قد رفض تجديد عقده مع ليفربول وانضم إلى ريال مدريد وسط غضب شديد من جماهير الفريق الإنجليزي، واضطر النادي الملكي إلى دفع 10 ملايين يورو لفسخ عقده مبكرًا من أجل ضمان مشاركته في كأس العالم للأندية.

وشارك الظهير الإنجليزي في خمس مباريات لـ ريال مدريد في كأس العالم للأندية، ولكنه لم يظهر بالمستوى المتوقع في الموسم الحالي، واضطر للتنافس مع داني كارفاخال على مركز الظهير الأيمن.

وعانى أرنولد من إصابة طويلة في الركبة، وتراجع دوره تحت قيادة المدرب تشابي ألونسو إثر ذلك، حيث فضل الأخير الاعتماد على فيدي فالفيردي.

وخاض أرنولد مباراتين أساسيتين فقط في الدوري الإسباني ومباراة في دوري أبطال أوروبا رفقة ريال مدريد ذلك الموسم.

من جانبه، كشف الصحفي الموثوق فابريزيو رومانو، أنه على الرغم من البداية غير الموفقة لـ أرنولد في مسيرته مع ريال مدريد، إلا أن مسؤولي النادي الإسباني لا يشعرون بالقلق حياله، بل يثقون بأنه سيتألق مع الفريق مستقبلًا.

وقال رومانو عبر قناته على يوتيوب، في تصريحات نشرتها شبكة “teamtalk” الإنجليزية: “ريال مدريد يحافظ على ثقته بـ ترينت في الحاضر والمستقبل، لا داع للذعر أو القلق”.

وأضاف: “ربما لم يبدأ ترينت مشواره مع ريال مدريد بأفضل طريقة ممكنة، لا يوجد أي قلق حول هذا، ولكن هذا قد يكون جزءًا من اللعبة”.

وواصل: “هناك إصابة وهناك تكيف للاعب بدأ مسيرته ولعب طوال مسيرته حتى الآن مع ليفربول في نفس المدينة، في نفس النادي، في نفس البلد، في نفس الدوري، والآن ينتقل إلى ريال مدريد، في سياق مختلف، لغة مختلفة، مدرب مختلف وثقافة مختلفة”.

وشدد: “كل شيء مختلف تمامًا، إنه يتكيف لكن ريال مدريد لا يشكك في مهارات وجودة أرنولد، مقتنع تمامًا بالتعاقد معه في صفقة انتقال حر، هذا هو الشعور السائد حول ترينت، وخاصة من الناحية البدنية”.

وحول سبب بقاء أرنولد على دكة البدلاء أمام ليفربول ورايو فاليكانو، فإن رومانو اختتم أن ذلك يعود لمخاوف في اللياقة البدنية للدولي الإنجليزي وأن اللاعب لم يستعد كامل لياقته بعد تعافيه مؤخرًا من إصابة في أوتار الركبة تعرض لها في سبتمبر الماضي، لذلك فإن ألونسو لم يرغب في المخاطرة به والتسبب في انتكاسة جديدة له.

Newcastle have "one of the best teen prospects" & he can surpass Woltemade

Newcastle United are masters at adapting and overcoming adversity. Hurdles have sprung up and sent Eddie Howe’s side tumbling in recent years, but each time the Magpies get themselves airborne once again.

They must prove this mentality remains intact, having struggled to make things click in the Premier League this season.

One ray of light through this up-and-down period has been Nick Woltemade, who has swerved a number of those hurdles to establish himself as one of the most exciting young forwards in Europe.

Could he be the Toon’s most talented player?

Why Nick Woltemade is thriving at Newcastle

Newcastle signed Woltemade from Stuttgart for a club-record £69m fee in August before Alexander Isak had completed his record-breaking move to Liverpool, signalling in all but confirmation the Swede’s looming departure.

With Yoane Wissa also brought in but sidelined before he could make his bow with a knee injury, Woltemade, 23, has assumed quite the heavy load.

But this hasn’t thwarted him.

The striker has scored six goals from his first 13 matches in black and white. Rangy and seemingly a throwback type of frontman, the German is endowed with much technical grace, with reporter Andy Sixsmith hailing him for “mesmerising” link-up ability.

Woltemade is surpassing expectations at number nine for Newcastle, and he is indeed playing like a man in a contest with Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali for the crown as the club’s best player.

But there’s an up-and-coming prospect who might be the cream of the crop, albeit one who requires work over the next few years.

Newcastle's bigger talent than Woltemade

Newcastle have transformed their first team in the four years under Howe’s wing, but PIF have quietly been assembling a youth force to be reckoned with down the line.

And, right at the top of this pack is Vakhtang Salia, who joined St. James’ Park from Dinamo Tbilisi this summer despite rival interest from European heavyweights such as Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

Injury has kept the 18-year-old from featuring for the Toon yet, but he played 57 senior matches for his former Georgian side, scoring eight goals and supplying four assists.

Salia hasn’t quite worked out his best position at this nascent stage of his career, but that’s okay. He is fast and has the mark of a clinical player down the line, and in this, he could one day surpass Woltemade.

This is a bold claim to make, but the respective forwards are at wholly different points in their careers, and his “very high work-rate”, as has been said by Genk scout Mikha Gabechava, suggests he has the drive to match his talent with a tenacious approach.

Because, after all, the Georgia U21 star has been described as “one of the best teenage prospects in the world” by journalist Graeme Bailey, and this without yet proving himself in a top division. The hype is very much real.

The sales of prospects like Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson mark a cautionary tale for the Tynesiders as they look to go from strength to strength once again. Salia’s signature must be held onto, and he must be allowed to develop into a polished Premier League star.

With the right work over the coming years, he could even prove to be a bigger talent than Woltemade.

Arsenal handed another injury doubt for Tottenham clash after twist and Gabriel blow

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been handed another injury doubt ahead of their looming derby clash at home to Tottenham, following the now-confirmed news that star defender Gabriel Magalhaes is set for weeks on the sidelines.

The Gunners welcome Spurs to the Emirates Stadium on Sunday brimming with confidence, as Arteta’s side look to extend their remarkable recent dominance over their fiercest rivals and strengthen their grip atop the Premier League summit.

Arsenal enter the 198th North London derby in commanding form despite a late setback at Sunderland ending their 10-match winning streak. They sit four points clear at the top of the table, and history suggests they’re well-positioned to maintain that advantage.

Sunderland 2-2 Arsenal

Arsenal have won five of their last six Premier League encounters with Spurs, including three consecutive victories – their longest winning run against Tottenham since the late 80s (The Analyst).

Home advantage has proven decisive in this fixture. Indeed, Arsenal have lost just one of their last 32 home Premier League derbies against Tottenham, winning 19 and drawing 12, with that solitary defeat coming in November 2010 (The Analyst).

The Emirates has become a fortress against their arch rivals, with Arsenal having scored in each of their last 26 home league games against Spurs, netting at least twice in the previous eight meetings.

However, Arsenal have had numerous injury doubts to contend with, as they have for most of this season.

Gabriel is now reportedly set for at least a month on the sidelines after injuring his thigh on international duty with Brazil, with Viktor Gyokeres, Gabriel Martinelli, Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke and Gabriel Jesus have all been missing recently.

Riccardo Calafiori could miss Tottenham as Arsenal dealt another injury doubt

As well as this, star left-back Riccardo Calafiori, who’s been one of Arsenal’s players of the season so far according to Ray Parlour, was nursing a hip problem on international duty with Italy.

After checks this week, Fabrizio Romano stated that Calafiori is ready to play with no injuries, just ‘overload’, so Arteta’s latest update actually comes as quite a surprising twist.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference, via football.london, Arteta says that Calafiori has been unavailable, and they’ll have to wait and see if he can take part against Spurs, pending another Saturday training session.

With Gabriel already ruled out, losing Calafiori would strip Arsenal of their two most versatile defensive options in one fell swoop.

If the former Bologna star is ruled out, Myles Lewis-Skelly is poised to return at left-back, with one of Cristhian Mosquera or Piero Hincapie replacing Gabriel. Calafiori’s been in exceptional form this term, so much so that Lewis-Skelly, one of Hale End’s latest rising stars, has barely got a look-in despite his excellent end to 24/25.

The 23-year-old would be a sore miss for Arteta, who is now facing a real selection headache ahead of one of Arsenal’s biggest games of the year.

ضربة جديدة ضد يويفا بسبب السوبر ليج

رفع دوري السوبر ليج دعوى قضائية ضد الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم، يويفا، حسب إعلان صادر عن شركة A22، المروجة لتلك البطولة التي حاولت إيجاد طريق لها على الساحة الرياضية في 2021، بمشاركة 12 فريقًا، ولكنها خطوة باءت بالفشل.

وذكرت صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية أن الشركة المروجة لدوري السوبر ليج، باشرت في 21 نوفمبر، الإجراءت الإلزامية لتسوية النزاعات بالطرق المناسبة، حسب قانون الإجراءات الإسباني، كخطوة تمهيدية لرفع دعوى قضائية ضد الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم.

وتهدف هذه الدعوى إلى المطالبة بتعويض عن الأضرار الناجمة عن إساءة الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم استغلال مركزه المهيمن كمشغل احتكاري في سوق مسابقات الأندية الأوروبية لكرة القدم.

وأوضحت أن هذه الدعوى ستُضاف إلى الدعوى التي سيرفعها ريال مدريد، والتي أعلن عنها فلورنتينو بيريز أمس الأحد في الجمعية العمومية، وسيتجاوز إجمالي قيمتهما 4.5 مليار يورو.

كانت الشركة المذكورة قد تقدمت في ديسمبر 2024 بطلب رسمي إلى يويفا للاعتراف بدوري السوبر ليج، وقد امتثل هذا الطلب تمامًا للمتطلبات التي نص عليها قرار محكمة العدل الأوروبية.

وعقب ذلك، دخلت الشركة نفسها في مفاوضات حسنة النية مع الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم، لمدة سبعة أشهر (بين مارس وسبتمبر 2025) سعيًا للتوصل إلى حل شامل وتعاوني للنزاعات القائمة.

وخلال هذه المفاوضات، قدمت الشركة تنازلات كبيرة لسد الفجوة بين مقترحها لدوري السوبر ليج ومسابقات الأندية الحالية التابعة للاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم.

وقد ركزت مقترحاتها على ثلاثة مجالات أساسية: تحسين النظام، وتحديث الحوكمة، وتطبيق منصة البث، بهدف توفير أسعار معقولة وتقنيات متطورة للجماهير التي تشاهد المباريات من المنزل، ولكن لم يتم التوصل إلى اتفاق رغم ذلك.

وخلصت الشركة إلى أنه “بناءً على ذلك، فإن الإجراء المناسب الوحيد في الوقت الحالي هو المطالبة بتعويض عن الأضرار الناجمة عن استمرار سلوك الاتحاد الأوروبي لكرة القدم غير القانوني”.
