Róger Guedes volta a alfinetar Vítor Pereira e revela alívio no Corinthians com a saída do português

MatériaMais Notícias

A passagem de Vítor Pereira pelo Corinthians foi marcada por diversas polêmicas e desentendimentos com atletas. Um dos principais alvos do português foi Róger Guedes, que não aprovava o rodízio feito pelo treinador e tinha relacionamento frio com o antigo comandante.

A escolha de VP em não renovar com o Timão para assinar com o Flamengo deixou a torcida corintiana revoltada, já que a Fiel apoiava e fazia campanha pela permanência de Vítor. No entanto, a saída do lusitano deixou o elenco alvinegro aliviado.

Em entrevista ao podcast “Podpah”, o camisa 10 do Timão disse que o grupo recebeu positivamente a notícia que Fernando Lázaro seria o treinador principalmente pela saída de Vítor Pereira.

– A gente ficou feliz de saber que o novo técnico era ele (Lázaro). Mas a gente ficou mais feliz só de saber que o outro (Vítor Pereira) já tinha saído. Não precisa negar, o ambiente é resenha, antes não tinha. Era um cara mais sério, o jeito dele minou a resenha, talvez não era algo que ele queria. Não quero falar mais do passado, o ambiente hoje é muito bom hoje e estamos felizes – revelou o atacante.

Com Fernando Lázaro, Róger Guedes encontrou o seu melhor futebol pelo Corinthians. O camisa 10 soma oito gols e é o artilheiro isolado do Paulistão. Além disso, ele atua com mais liberdade no ataque, caindo pelo lado esquerdo como jogando centralizado, atrás de Yuri Alberto.

No primeiro jogo desta temporada, na derrota por 1 a 0 contra o Red Bull Bragantino, Róger Guedes falou sobre Vítor Pereira e disse que o ambiente com Lázaro é “mais leve”.

Virou rotina? São Paulo decidiu a maioria dos últimos jogos pela Copa do Brasil fora de casa

MatériaMais Notícias

O São Paulo conheceu quem será seu adversário na terceira fase da Copa do Brasil – quando estreia na competição -, e quais serão os mandos de campo na decisão. O Tricolor enfrentará o Ituano. Porém, foi acertado via sorteio que o primeiro jogo será no estádio do Morumbi, assim, decidirá se avançará ou não fora de casa, no Novelli Júnior.

Mas decidir a competição fora de casa não está sendo uma novidade para o São Paulo nas últimas edições. De acordo com levantamentos do historiador Alexandre Giesbrecht, do ‘Anotações Tricolores’, dos 26 últimos confrontos pela Copa do Brasil, o Tricolor decidiu 19 fora de casa.

Ou seja, ter que enfrentar o Ituano como visitante na partida que pode decidir se avança de fase ou não, é algo que nem chegar a assustar a equipe. O único ano que resolveu todas as decisões no Morumbi foi em 2020. Entretanto, por conta da pandemia da Covid-19, nem chegou a ter público.

Inclusive, desde 2020, a única vez que decidiu com torcida em casa foi no último ano, também pela terceira fase, contra o Juventude. Nesta partida em questão, após empatar o jogo de ida por 2 a 2, venceu o adversário por 2 a 0 – com gols de Arboleda e Igor Vinícius.

Agora, o São Paulo terá o desafio contra o Ituano. Mas se for pensar por uma questão de logística, a situação está muito mais tranquila. Por se tratar de um confronto estadual, a locomoção até o município de Itu é muito mais tranquila do que uma viagem para outro estado. Na Copa Sul-Americana, por exemplo, estreia na Argentina. No Campeonato Brasileiro, viaja até o Rio de Janeiro.

A última decisão do São Paulo pela Copa do Brasil aconteceu no último ano, pela semifinal, quando encontrou o Flamengo no Maracanã e foi eliminado ao ser derrotado por 1 a 0. No jogo de ida, no Morumbi, tinha perdido por 3 a 1.

Ainda sem as datas definidas, a CBF liberou somente as datas-base. Os jogos de ida serão disputados na semana do dia 12 de abril e de volta na semana do dia 26, também em abril.

Título paulista eleva ainda mais o patamar de alguns jogadores do atual elenco do Palmeiras

MatériaMais Notícias

Uma das principais virtudes do elenco do Palmeiras é o tempo em que a maioria dos atletas jogam juntos. Do time-base, cinco jogadores estão, pelo menos, desde 2019 no clube alviverde. O número chega a seis se considerarmos o atacante Dudu, que chegou ao Alviverde em 2015, mas em 2020 teve um breve hiato no mundo árabe, retornando na temporada seguinte.

Essa constância, somado a um dos momentos mais vitoriosos da história palmeirense, fez com que atletas ocupassem espaços históricos no Palestra.

O goleiro Weverton, por exemplo, se isolou como atleta da posição com mais títulos pelo Verdão: agora são 10. Com a marca, ele superou o lendário Oberdan Cattani.

Já o zagueiro Gustavo Gómez, que levantou a taça do Estadual, ultrapassou César Sampaio, capitão no primeiro título da Libertadores do Palmeiras, em 1999. O defensor paraguaio chegou ao sétimo título, superando os seis do volante. A próxima conquista em que ele for o responsável por levantar a taça a favor da equipe alviverde o tornará o capitão com quem o Palestra mais foi campeão, superando nada mais, nada menos que o Divino, Ademir da Guia.

O atacante Dudu, por sua vez, atingiu uma marca histórica entre todos os jogadores do Palmeiras na história: o camisa 7 chegou ao 11º troféu pela equipe palestrina e se tornou o terceiro jogador mais vitorioso do clube na história. O título paulista contra o Água Santa, no último fim de semana, fez com que o Baixola ultrapassasse o xará, Dudu, que defendeu o Verdão por 11 anos, entre 1964 e 19975.

Murphy relishes 'awesome' battle with Kohli and 'surreal' start to Test cricket

While his future opportunities after this tour remain uncertain, he hopes to use early success to get better

Andrew McGlashan07-Mar-2023

Todd Murphy has dismissed Virat Kohli three times in as many Tests•Getty Images

Surreal. Daunting. As good as it gets. Those are just three ways Todd Murphy described his first experience of Test cricket amid the series in India, where he has been lauded for his maturity and ability to slot into the side despite limited experience.Murphy had played seven first-class matches when he was called in to debut at Nagpur where he claimed seven wickets. All told he has taken 11 wickets at 21.81 with a miserly economy of 2.61, the latter particularly coming to the fore in the second innings in Indore when his wicketless 14 overs went for just 18 runs. He was praised by Daniel Vettori for playing a role in ensuring another India collapse.Related

Lyon's apprentice Murphy tops his master in the rough of Nagpur

This is the way: Going around the wicket to take buckets of wickets

Murphy and Kuhnemann keep pace with fast-forward Test cricket

Among that he has claimed Virat Kohli three times; the first owed a bit to luck when Kohli was caught down the leg side but the other two, especially the dismissal in Indore, came about through terrific skill.”It’s been awesome,” Murphy said of that battle. “When I look back to Nagpur when he walked out to bat, I was at the top of my mark thinking this is as good as it gets getting to bowl to a guy like that. So to be able to have that for the first three Tests has been awesome, a really enjoyable battle and no different to bowling to a lot of their guys. When they stand there it is daunting at times.”Murphy was modest about the set-up to Kohli in Indore. “It’s always nice when it looks like that,” he said. “And I think the plans for [coming from] around the wicket is always to challenge both sides of the edges, for that to work out the way it did was nice and to get him out again was awesome.””At the start of the season we both weren’t in the state sides and to be here now playing Test cricket together is pretty surreal”•Getty Images

Murphy has been part of a rare Australian spin trio in the last two Tests with Matthew Kuhnemann, with only a little more experience under his belt, also hastily drafted into the side for Delhi, then claiming his own maiden five-wicket haul in Indore to bundle out India for 109.”It’s something I’ve never really experienced, playing with two other frontline spinners,” Murphy said. “Steve [Smith] talked about it before the last Test, it’s about putting your ego away and knowing you’re going to bowl short spells at times. It doesn’t mean you’re not bowling well, it’s probably just accepting that and knowing that at certain times you’re going to be playing different roles. It’s been enjoyable and we’ve been able to work off each other very well and we’re quite different.”While Murphy’s relationship with Nathan Lyon was strong before the tour – the latter being a mentor during his young career – a strong bond has been formed with Kuhnemann after their similarly rapid elevation to the Test arena.”It’s been really cool,” he said. “We spoke about it after Kuhny debuted. At the start of the season we both weren’t in the state sides and to be here now playing Test cricket together is pretty surreal. It’s happened a lot faster than we both probably expected. We’ve just tried to enjoy it and the relationship is building nicely. We can talk about spin bowling, what works and what doesn’t.”Quite when Murphy’s next Test opportunity comes after Ahmedabad, providing Lyon remains fit, is uncertain. It is unlikely that conditions in England for the World Test Championship final and the Ashes will call for two spinners and it remains a rare route on home soil, although Ashton Agar did partner Lyon against South Africa at the SCG this season. Australia’s next subcontinent tour is not until early 2025 when they visit Sri Lanka for two Tests.Murphy is set for a spell in county cricket ahead of the Ashes and should be well-placed to be the second spinner in that squad.”I haven’t thought too far ahead but when you look, Gaz [Lyon] is still bowling as good as he ever has so when this series does come to an end it is going to slow down a little, it’s quite rare other places in the world to play two spinners,” he said. “To have this taste so early, it will drive me to get better and what it even more when hopefully it next does come.”

Injury-hit Super Kings face away challenge against resurgent Royal Challengers

Moody: RCB would want to continue their winning ways at home

Big picture: CSK ravaged by injuries, illnessEarlier this week, when quizzed about updates on the injuries in Chennai Super Kings’ side, coach Stephen Fleming jokingly asked reporters if we had an extra half an hour as the clock ticked towards midnight. Fleming saw the funny side of things at the time, but with Super Kings set to play four of their next six games away from home, he will be scrambling to assemble fast-bowling resources.Deepak Chahar, Sisanda Magala, Simarjeet Singh and Ben Stokes are all injured while Matheesha Pathirana has only recently recovered from Covid-19. Super Kings had opted against rushing Pathirana back into action in the home game against Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday, but now they might have to throw him into the mix at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, although Dwaine Pretorius offers another option.Royal Challengers Bangalore have also been hit by injuries this IPL, but despite that, they look in better shape than Super Kings, especially on the bowling front. Mohammed Siraj has excelled in the powerplay, local boy Vijaykumar Vyshak has seamlessly transitioned into the XI from being a net bowler, while Harshal Patel has also found some form. Glenn Maxwell has bowled just one over this season but is likely to have a more substantial role with the ball against a left-hander-heavy Super Kings line-up.On Saturday afternoon, Royal Challengers faltered in the second half of their innings against Delhi Capitals, but their bowlers defied the Chinnaswamy conditions to successfully defend 174.

Malinga Pathirana is likely to replace the injured Magala in Super Kings’ XI. Stokes, who is working his way back from a minor toe injury, bowled at the nets in Bengaluru, but he is unlikely to play on Monday. Mike Hussey, Super Kings’ batting coach, suggested that MS Dhoni would manage his knee injury “as best as he can along the way”.If Super Kings bowl first, they could start with Akash Singh and consider bringing Ambati Rayudu in as Impact Player during their chase.Possible bat-first XI: 1 Devon Conway, 2 Ruturaj Gaikwad, 3 Ajinkya Rahane, 4 Moeen Ali, 5 Shivam Dube, 6 Ambati Rayudu, 7 Ravindra Jadeja, 8 MS Dhoni (capt & wk), 9 Maheesh Theekshana, 10 Matheesha Pathirana/Dwaine Pretorius 11 Tushar DeshpandePossible bowl-first XI: 1 Devon Conway, 2 Ruturaj Gaikwad, 3 Ajinkya Rahane, 4 Moeen Ali, 5 Shivam Dube, 6 Ravindra Jadeja, 7 MS Dhoni (capt & wk), 8 Maheesh Theekshana, 9 Matheesha Pathirana/Dwaine Pretorius, 10 Tushar Deshpande, 11 Akash Singh Pitch and conditionsThe Chinnaswamy track is usually full of runs and the ball often skids on under lights in dewy conditions. Fifty-seven sixes have been hit across three matches at the Chinnaswamy – the most at a venue this season. The weather is expected to be fine for the duration of the game.Stats that matter Ravindra Jadeja has dominated Maxwell in the IPL, dismissing him six times in ten innings while keeping him to 49 off 40 balls. He has also kept Virat Kohli quiet, conceding only 140 runs off 131 balls against him for three wickets. Dhoni has smashed Siraj for 51 runs off 28 balls without being dismissed in the IPL.Wayne Parnell or David Willey could pose a threat to Ruturaj Gaikwad. The Super Kings opener has fallen to left-arm seamers 11 times in 19 innings since IPL 2020. No other batter has been dismissed more times by left-arm seamers during this period.Quotes
“It’s always a great occasion, especially playing here. They’ve got a fantastic team and they’ve been playing some good cricket and got some confidence from their win the other day. So, I feel we have to play at our best to hopefully win the match.”

Lyon formally ruled out of remainder of the Ashes

Todd Murphy likely for Headingley Test with no other spinner added; Matt Renshaw has been released from the squad but will remain in the UK as standby.

‘It’s pretty shattering’ – Nathan Lyon on his calf injury

Nathan Lyon has been ruled out of the remainder of the Ashes series due to his torn right calf and no replacement has been added to Australia’s squad yet. That means fellow offspinner Todd Murphy is almost certain to replace him for the third Test against England at Headingley starting on Thursday, with Australia 2-0 up in the series.Spare batter Matt Renshaw, who fielded for Lyon on the final day of the Lord’s Test, has been released from the squad but will remain in the UK on standby, meaning Australia’s squad has been reduced to 16 with seam bowler Michael Neser remaining with the group having been a late addition for the World Test Championship final and the first two Ashes Tests.Lyon suffered what he described as a “decent tear” of his right calf on the second day of the Lord’s Test while fielding.Related

Ashwin: Murphy '10 to 50 times better' than Lyon was on his first India tour

He did not field or bowl again in the match but bravely batted on one leg to help Australia add 15 more runs to their second-innings total, which proved quite valuable to the end result.Lyon met with Australia’s medical staff on Sunday to confirm that his tour was over, as he had already suspected. It brought to an end his remarkable streak of 100 consecutive Tests. Lord’s was his 100th Test in a row and his 122nd overall. He is just the sixth man in Test history to play 100 Tests in a row and the only bowler to do it.Lyon has also never missed a Test through injury until now. The only other time he did not play for Australia since his Test debut in 2011 was when he was omitted for the first two Tests of the 2013 Ashes series.Lyon’s absence means that Murphy, 22, will almost certainly play in the remaining three Tests. The Victoria offspinner played all four Tests on Australia’s tour of India earlier this year and took 14 wickets at 25.21, including 7 for 124 on debut in Nagpur.ESPNcricinfo Ltd

But it will be the first time Murphy has played as the sole spinner in a Test as he played alongside Lyon in all four matches in India, and as part of a three-pronged spin attack in three of them when Matthew Kuhnemann was called into the side after the first Test loss in Nagpur.It will also be just the third time in his first-class career that he will play as the lone spinner in a line-up. Murphy has only played 12 first-class games in his short career to date including his four Tests. In six of his eight appearances for Victoria, Australia A and the Prime Minister’s XI, he has played alongside another specialist spinner.Murphy won a lot of praise for his performances in India with India offspinner R Ashwin describing him as “10 to 50 times better” than Lyon was when he first came to India in 2013.Kuhnemann remains in Australia, having had to leave his county stint with Durham earlier in the season after a back injury.Nathan Lyon congratulates Todd Murphy on his seven-for in the Nagpur Test•Getty Images

Queensland legspinner Mitchell Swepson, who played four Tests for Australia in Pakistan and Sri Lanka in 2022 and was on the tour of India, is in England playing for Glamorgan as an overseas replacement for Neser. He took seven wickets on his Glamorgan debut against Sussex and could be called into the squad if needed.The release of Renshaw from the squad is a sign Australia’s selectors are comfortable with the form and fitness of the batting group after the first two Tests. Renshaw will remain in the UK but any doubts about David Warner’s place at the top of the order have been dismissed following his vital 66 on day one in tricky batting conditions at Lord’s. Warner also made a valuable 76-ball 25 in the second, under floodlights against the swinging ball, and he and Usman Khawaja became the first Australian opening pair in five years to post half-century partnerships in both innings of a Test.Marcus Harris and Mitchell Marsh remain as the spare batter and spare allrounder in the squad. Jimmy Peirson is also there as the backup wicketkeeper after Josh Inglis flew home for the birth of his first child following the first Test at Edgbaston. Inglis is still planning to return to the tour at some stage but there has been no timeline placed on it.Australia squad for third men’s Ashes Test: Pat Cummins (capt), Steven Smith (vice-capt), David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Alex Carey (wk), Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Todd Murphy, Scott Boland, Michael Neser, Marcus Harris, Mitchell Marsh, Jimmy Peirson (wk)

Match detailsRoyal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) vs Punjab Kings (PBKS)
Bengaluru, 1930 IST (1400 GMT)Big PictureAfter a defeat at Chepauk against Chennai Super Kings, RCB are set to begin a three-match stretch at home. Over the years, their attempts to make the M Chinnaswamy Stadium a fortress have not borne fruit, and it is not going to be any easier on Monday when they face Punjab Kings.The Chinnaswamy is known for its flat pitches and high-scoring games, and Kings’ batting line-up – packed with power-hitters – seems to be tailor-made for it. They will also carry the confidence of having won their opening match against Delhi Capitals, where most of their batters looked in good nick.Against CSK, RCB’s batting had come undone against Mustafizur Rahman’s offcutters. Kings, too, have a left-arm seamer in Arshdeep Singh who has an offcutter and a recently developed legcutter. While Kings will be hoping he plays a similar role for them, the ball is unlikely to grip at the Chinnaswamy, especially during a night game.The silver lining for RCB in their defeat to CSK was Anuj Rawat’s performance. After they were reduced to 78 for 5, Rawat smashed 48 off 25 to revive the innings. If he can make regular contributions, it will help RCB solve their death-overs troubles; they were the second-slowest batting side in that phase last season.Team newsRCB could consider bringing in Reece Topley for Alzarri Joseph, while Kings are expected to continue with the winning combination.Impact Player strategyRoyal Challengers Bengaluru
If RCB bat first, Dinesh Karthik starts, with Yash Dayal coming in as Impact Player in the second innings. If they bowl first, Yash Dayal features in the playing XI, with Karthik replacing him during the chase.Probable XII: 1 Virat Kohli, 2 Faf du Plessis (capt), 3 Rajat Patidar, 4 Glenn Maxwell, 5 Cameron Green, 6 Anuj Rawat (wk), 7 , 8 Reece Topley/Alzarri Joseph, 9 Karn Sharma, 10 Mayank Dagar, 11 Mohammed Siraj, 12 Punjab Kings
If they bat first, Prabhsimran Singh slots in the XI. Arshdeep Singh will replace him in the second innings. Vice versa, if they bowl first.Probable XII: 1 Shikhar Dhawan (capt), 2 Jonny Bairstow, 3 , 4 Sam Curran, 5 Jitesh Sharma (wk), 6 Liam Livingstone, 7 Shashank Singh, 8 Harpreet Brar, 9 Harshal Patel, 10 Kagiso Rabada, 11 Rahul Chahar, 12 Stats that matter Kagiso Rabada has a great record against the RCB batters. Against Faf du Plessis: 16 runs in 13 balls, two dismissals. Against Virat Kohli: 27 runs in 24 balls, three dismissals. Against Glenn Maxwell: 23 runs in 20 balls, two dismissals. Against Karthik: 14 runs in 19 balls, three dismissals. Harpreet Brar has been Kings’ go-to bowler in the middle overs (7 to 16). Among those who bowled at least ten overs in that phase last season, Brar’s economy of 6.18 was the best. He has a favourable match-up against Maxwell, dismissing him three times in 14 balls. But du Plessis has taken him for 79 runs off 46 balls without getting dismissed. Jonny Bairstow has a strike rate of over 200 against each of Mohammed Siraj, Karn Sharma and Maxwell. He has a combined 101 runs in 42 balls against them without getting out even once. Kohli has enjoyed batting against Arshdeep and Harshal Patel. Against Arshdeep, he has 44 runs off 23 balls without being dismissed, and against Harshal, 43 in 27 balls for one dismissal. Rahul Chahar, though, has been able to keep him quiet, giving away only 32 runs in 37 balls while getting him out once. Karthik has hit Sam Curran for 59 runs in 23 balls without being dismissed.Pitch and conditionsSince the start of 2018, teams have scored at 9.42 per over at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, the highest scoring rate at any venue that has hosted at least five IPL games. Don’t expect anything different on Monday.The temperature will be around 28C, with no dew expected.Quotes”The communication to me has been very clear. I am supposed to be batting down the order but if we lose early wickets, I have to bat in the middle order. Keeping wicket last season in the last couple of games gave me a lot of confidence, and I am looking forward to continuing as a wicketkeeper-batsman this season as well.”

'He's sore in the same spot' – Mayank walks off field after 3.1 overs under injury cloud

Mayank Yadav had to walk off after picking up his only wicket of the game•BCCI

Lucknow Super Giants express pace bowler Mayank Yadav has had another injury scare at IPL 2024, having walked off against Mumbai Indians after the first ball of his fourth over. His captain KL Rahul said that was more of a precaution after he complained of pain in the same area he’s had issues with, which had kept him out of five games before this one. He will have scans on Wednesday to rule out further issues.”I have not really spoken to him,” Rahul said at the post-match presentation. “He was out in the last game because of a slight pain in his side, not a side strain, but slight pain there. After the first ball [of his fourth over], he said the same thing, ‘ [it’s hurting a bit]’. So I said might as well go out and not risk the next five balls. He is still young and precious to us, so we need to look after him.”Mayank, 21, had earlier played three matches at this IPL before being sidelined because of abdominal soreness.Related

“Looks like he is sore in the same spot,” LSG head coach Justin Langer said. “His rehab has been perfect, he bowled pain-free in the last week and looked in great condition. But we’ll have a scan and find out tomorrow.”In his first two IPL matches, against Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Mayank had bagged the Player-of-the-Match awards with three-fors in both games when he went past 150kph regularly and surprised with his speed on the big stage, especially without much experience in domestic cricket; Mayank had played just one first-class match, 17 List A matches and 10 T20s before making his IPL debut.At the toss on Tuesday, Rahul had said he had been keen to get Mayank back in the playing XI as quickly as possible. “He has bowled really well in the couple of games that he has played and has a huge impact for us. As a captain, I am always tempted to bring him in the team as quickly as possible,” Rahul had said. “So I have been pushing the physios and the medical team to get him ready as quickly as possible. Even if he is about 95 [% fit], I keep pushing them to give him the confidence to play the game. But obviously, they know better than I do. I will make emotional decisions, and so will Mayank.”Against MI, Mayank had bowled his first three overs – while cranking up the pace – for 31 runs before he was given the 19th over. His first ball went through Mohammad Nabi to crash into the stumps but the fast bowler then went off the field, for his over to be completed by Naveen-ul-Haq. Mayank did not look in visible discomfort when he went off and was later subbed out as the Impact Player at the innings break for Arshin Kulkarni.Mayank had started his day in dramatic fashion when he came on after the powerplay and his first delivery, at 144.1kph, struck Nehal Wadhera in the helmet. He also went past the 150kph mark later in the over but largely bowled his on-pace deliveries in the 140-147kph range and pitched most of his deliveries in the short or short-of-good-length area.
