Staff Reporter09-Jan-2001Punjab made a bad start, made a recovery of sorts through a fifth wicketpartnership of 52 runs and then slid again to be dismissed for 160 off 87.1overs at stumps on the opening day of their three day Vijay Merchant knockout tournament (under-16) semifinal against Uttar Pradesh at the EdenGardens on Tuesday.Electing to bat, Punjab ran into trouble early. Openers Tavish Gupta (8)and Varun Gupta (7) fell with only 22 runs on the board. Worse was tofollow as Vishwas Bhalla (4) and Rahul Arora (10) fell to Praveen Gupta andPunjab were 61 for four.Vipul Sharma (49) and Gourav Gupta (51) added 52 runs for the fifth wicketoff 21.3 overs but just as Punjab were breathing a bit more freely, VipulSharma was leg before to Rahat Ilahi. He faced 142 balls and hit four ofthem to the ropes. Praveen Gupta and Rahat Iralhi then got among thewickets as Punjab lost their last six wickets for 47 runs off 24.4 overs.Ilahi took two for nine off nine overs while Praveen Gupta was thewrecker-in-chief taking five for 50 off 23.1 overs. The gallant GouravGupta was eighth out at 150. He faced 101 balls and hit four fours and asix. It now remains to be seen whether Punjab’s modest score can keep themin the fight.

ذكرت تقارير صحفية أن نادي آرسنال الإنجليزي دخل في محادثات مع وكلاء باولو ديبالا مهاجم يوفنتوس بشأن إمكانية التعاقد معه في سوق الانتقالات الصيفي القادم.

ومن المقرر أن ينتهي عقد اللاعب البالغ من العمر 28 عامًا في نهاية يونيو القادم، ومن المتوقع أن يترك السيدة العجوز، ويكون قادرًا على الانتقال إلى أي نادٍ بالمجان.

وحسب شبكة “توتو ميركاتو” الإيطالية، فإن آرسنال افتتح مُحادثات رسمية مع وكلاء ديبالا من أجل نقله إلى ملعب الإمارات هذا الصيف.

وقالت الشبكة إن مدرب الفريق، الإسباني ميكيل أرتيتا، يرى أن آرسنال في حاجة ماسة إلى ديبالا لتعزيز الجانرز بالموسم القادم.

ويُدرك آرسنال أن أكثر من نادٍ يريد التعاقد مع ديبالا، مع وجود رغبة من أتلتيكو مدريد، إنتر ميلان، توتنهام، مانشستر سيتي وباريس سان جيرمان، ولكن النادي اللندني سيحاول إقناع اللاعب بمشروع الجانرز.

يُذكر أن باولو ديبالا هذا الموسم مع يوفنتوس شارك في 29 مباراة بمُختلف المسابقات، وسجل 13 هدفًا وقدم ست تمريرات حاسمة.

Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa is eyeing a move for Southampton goalkeeper Angus Gunn in the summer transfer window.

What’s the story?

The Leeds boss was reported to have wanted to sign the 25-year-old prior to his £13.5m move to the south coast in the summer of 2018 and appears to have kept tabs on his progress ever since.

Football Insider claim that despite newly-promoted Norwich having agreed a fee with the Saints, Bielsa’s side are looking to “hijack” the deal.

The report reveals that Leeds have registered their interest in the goalkeeper as they look to swoop in late, and that Gunn is seen as the perfect cover for Illan Meslier as they look to offload Kiko Casilla.

Perfect back-up for Meslier

Hailed as being “tremendous” by former Southampton boss Mark Hughes, and someone who could eventually be an England international, Gunn could finally arrive at Elland Road after a few years of Bielsa wanting him.

Gunn is on around £4ok-per-week at St Mary’s, which isn’t much of a financial gamble for Andrea Radrizzani to take, and in signing him, he would give Bielsa someone who’s Premier League experienced and capable of providing back-up to Meslier.

The Saints stopper has played top-flight football with the Saints, as well as enjoying Championship stints with the likes of Norwich and Stoke.

And, at 25, he still has plenty of years to develop and he could give Leeds and Bielsa a number of seasons keeping Meslier on his toes.

The Leeds boss will surely be buzzing at the prospect of seeing the club potentially landing a man he first wanted back in 2018.

Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano has dropped a major Leeds United transfer update…

To the relief of everyone concerned – except perhaps the Eastern Province Jumbos – KwaZulu-Natal cruised into the Standard Bank Cup final with a seven-wicket victory in their rain-affected, extended semifinal at Kingsmead on Wednesday

Peter Robinson19-Feb-2001To the relief of everyone concerned – except perhaps the Eastern Province Jumbos – KwaZulu-Natal cruised into the Standard Bank Cup final with a seven-wicket victory in their rain-affected, extended semifinal at Kingsmead on Wednesday.Despite the loss of 90 minutes play in midafternoon as drizzle fell, Natal were able to track down a revised target of 165 in some comfort in an innings shortened to a maximum of 33 overs. EP, earlier, had struggled to 210 all out as they failed to bat out their 45 overs.The Natalians, who had a dismal first-class season, failing to qualify for the Super 8 stage, will meet Northerns Titans in the final at Kingsmead on Wednesday.Natal were set on their way by an 85-run opening partnership between Doug Watson and Ashraf Mall that all but put paid to the possibility of a Jumbos victory. The conditions undoubtedly favoured the home team with EP having to contend with a soggy ball and slippery run ups – Nantie Hayward bowled seven wides in his first over before the rain break, and then had Mall dropped at slip with his first ball after the interruption – but in the end the visitors were well beaten on the day.Mall had his life on 29 and went on to make 40 before he went tamely, steering Hayward straight down to Garnett Kruger at third man, but Gulam Bodi then produced a run-a-ball 32 to keep Natal going and with Watson standing firm for his fifth 50 of the competition, the Dolphins were seldom in trouble.Watson eventually made 56 to make him the leading run-scorer in the competition this summer and with Lance Klusener heaving it about as late afternoon sun finally broke through the clouds Natal got home in the penultimate over of the game.The EP innings began slowly, picked up in the middle as Dave Callaghan and Mark Benfield fashion half-centuries, and then collapsed at the end with the last five wickets falling for the addition of only eight runs.Natal, it must be said, bowled with far greater intelligence and control than had been the case on Sunday when EP stormed to 253 for two in 41.2 overs before the rain washed things out.Left-arm seamer Gary Gilder was brought into the Natal team for his first run in this extended semi and justified his selection inside the first eight overs by nipping out both EP openers, including Robin Peterson whose spirited hitting on Sunday seemed at one stage to have won the Jumbos a place in the final.There were relatively minor contributions from James Bryant (21) and Justin Kemp (27) before Callaghan came in to make a thoughtful 63 and Benfield crunched out 51 off 43 balls.But both managed to get out just when EP needed to push on. Benfield holed out to deep square leg off Bodi, but, more crucially, Shaun Pollock ran Callaghan out with a direct hit in the 41st over to prompt the lower order collapse. It was, perhaps, the key moment in the match. Had Callaghan stayed through until the end, EP might have totalled around 240, but instead they contrived to get themselves out with eight balls still unbowled.From that moment on, the visitors either had to bowl brilliantly or look to the heavens for assistance. Neither eventuality was forthcoming.

Um dos maiores patrimônios do futebol brasileiro completa nesta quarta-feira 70 anos. Eduardo Gonçalves de Andrade foi apresentado ao mundo como Tostão, jogador de futebol refinado que atuou como ponta-de-lança e centroavante e fez história no Cruzeiro e na Seleção Brasileira.

No clube celeste, colecionou títulos mineiros e ainda deixou no bolso o Santos de Pelé em uma fantástica decisão da Taça Brasil de 1966. Convocado para o escrete canarinho, disputou a Copa de 1966 mas, no ano de 1970, chegou ao seu ápice, conquistando o Mundial com jogadas e gols ao lado de uma equipe histórica, com Pelé, Rivellino, Gerson e Jairzinho.

Porém, um descolamento de retina o fez deixar os gramados já em 1972, quando era a estrela do Vasco. Passou então a dedicar-se aos cursos de Medicina na UFMG, e de fisioterapia, na Faculdade de Ciências Médicas, exercendo a profissão e sendo professor.

Voltou a ter contato com o futebol décadas depois, desta vez como craque da caneta, como colunista no “Estado de Minas”. Atualmente, escreve na “Folha de São Paulo” e tem dois livros publicados: “Tostão – Lembranças, Opiniões e Reflexões sobre Futebol”, em 1997, e “Tempos vividos, sonhados e perdidos: um olhar sobre o futebol, nas livrarias desde o ano passado.

O LANCE! recorda em uma galeria algumas das memórias que Tostão deixou na lembrança dos torcedores.

Zaheer Khan delivered when it mattered most, picking up five wicketsfor just 16 runs on the final day to bowl Railways out for 201

Santhosh S23-Apr-2001Zaheer Khan delivered when it mattered most, picking up five wicketsfor just 16 runs on the final day to bowl Railways out for 201. Barodawon by 21 runs and took the Ranji Trophy for the fifth time since itsinception. Railways wilted under pressure to lose the match afterbeing in the driver’s seat for the best part of the contest, in thefinal played at Gujarat State Fertilizer Corporation Ground, Baroda,on Monday.Baroda had to dismiss the remaining six Railways wickets to take theRanji Trophy. Railways had their eyes set on knocking off the required132 runs to win. Without the services of Rakesh Patel, who is injured,Baroda had to rely on Zaheer Khan and he did not disappoint. Resumingon their overnight score of 91/4, Yere Goud (20) was given out, caughtbehind off the bowling of Zaheer Khan in the third over of the day.Goud’s bat was nowhere near the ball as the TV replays suggested.Railways were soon reduced to 107/6, when S Khanolkar (3) was trappedin front of the wicket by Khan. SV Wankhede and Santosh Sahu added 83runs for the seventh wicket, as they went about sweeping the spinnersValmik Buch and Bhoite to the leg side. Runs kept flowing as the twobatsmen kept playing across the line.Railways were 33 runs away from victory with four wickets in hand. Adesperate Jacob Martin had to call upon Zaheer Khan to deliver theimpossible. In the space of 26 balls Railways lost the remainingwickets; Sahu (42) was brilliantly caught by Martin off the bowling ofKhan.Murali Kartik who played a resilient knock in the first innings cameout to bat. He was adjudged caught behind off Bhoite after making justtwo runs. A visibly dejected Kartik had a few words of dissent andtook a wild swing with his bat at the stumps. The umpire had to callhim back and reprimand him. Kartik who has been in trouble for hiserratic behaviour will certainly be reported to the BCCI.Kulamani Parida (0) was caught by Buch at second slip off a ZaheerKhan bouncer. Parida was injured in the first innings when he was hitby a beamer from Khan and that must have been playing in his mind ashe took evasive action. The ball seemed to have brushed his gloves onits way to the fielder. It was a close call and as luck would have it,Baroda got the benefit of the doubt.The end came without a trace of doubt, Wankhede managing to get aninside edge onto his off stump for Khan’s fifth wicket of the morning.There was so much jubilation all around as the home crowd ran onto theground to celebrate a great victory. Baroda has had a good season andthere is nothing like winning India’s premier domestic championship,the Ranji Trophy.

A vida de Tchê Tchê estava cheia de incertezas no início de 2016. De volta ao Audax, clube que o revelou, ele tentava colocar a carreira nos eixos após disputar apenas quatro partidas em toda a temporada de 2015, sendo uma pela Ponte Preta e três pelo Boa Esporte. Um ano depois daquele recomeço, o meio-campista de 24 anos não para de acumular conquistas, coletivas e individuais.

De contrato renovado até o fim de 2019 (antes iria até o meio de 2019), com direito a reajuste salarial e aumento da multa rescisória, ele será titular no último amistoso do Palmeiras na pré-temporada, às 17h deste domingo, no Allianz Parque, justamente contra a Macaca.

– Mudou bastante coisa, né? Tudo que aconteceu no ano passado foi muito bom. Agora tenho que procurar manter, procurar evoluir, para que eu possa virar um grande jogador. Eu acredito e o pessoal aqui no Palmeiras também acredita em mim – disse o camisa 32, em entrevista ao LANCE!.

Tchê Tchê ficou entre os 11 melhores do Brasileirão de 2016 em todas as premiações: Craque Brasileirão, da CBF; Bola de Prata, da ESPN Brasil; Troféu Mesa Redonda, da TV Gazeta; e na seleção de notas doLANCE!. Ele não esconde que o ótimo desempenho o faz sonhar com a Seleção Brasileira. A expectativa aumentou na semana passada, quando Tite chamou apenas atletas que atuam no país para o amistoso contra a Colômbia. Não foi dessa vez…

– Confesso que pensei que talvez pudesse ir. Mas é continuar trabalhando. Acho que fiz tudo que poderia fazer no ano passado, a gente foi campeão, ganhei praticamente tudo o que poderia ganhar individualmente. Não tinha mais o que fazer. Agora é continuar assim para que possa aparecer a oportunidade mais para a frente – explicou.

A convocação não parece ser um sonho impossível para quem ficou fora da lista de inscritos da Ponte Preta para o Paulistão de 2015 e um ano depois já era um dos destaques do Audax, vice-campeão da edição seguinte do torneio. Ele ganhou os prêmios de revelação e melhor meia da competição e chamou a atenção de Cuca. O técnico pediu sua contratação, foi atendido pela diretoria do Verdão e já o colocou como titular.

A adaptação foi imediata. Tchê Tchê foi titular em 37 das 38 rodadas do Brasileirão e marcou dois gols. Ele ainda disputou duas partidas da Copa do Brasil do ano passado, com um gol, e já iniciou 2017 como titular no amistoso contra a Chapecoense. Como explicar esse sucesso?

– As pessoas aqui no Palmeiras confiaram de verdade em mim. Não me viram como um menino, mas como um homem, e confiaram no meu potencial. O Cuca confiou em me bancar no início. Acho que depois eu mereci tudo o que aconteceu, mas eu vim como uma aposta, então essa confiança, a maneira como me receberam e a maneira como a torcida me abraçou fizeram toda a diferença – disse.

Veja abaixo um bate-bola exclusivo com Tchê Tchê:

Você vai enfrentar a Ponte pela terceira vez desde que chegou ao Palmeiras (perdeu uma e empatou outra no Brasileirão de 2016). É um jogo diferente para você por não ter sido utilizado lá?
Não guardo nenhuma mágoa. É um clube em que passei e as coisas acabaram não dando certo. Fico tranquilo, para mim é mais uma equipe que a gente vai enfrentar. Temos que procurar fazer um bom jogo.

Tem algum lado negativo em se tornar tão conhecido de repente?
Negativo, não. Eu procuro absorver as coisas que fazem bem. As que podem me atrapalhar, tanto na vida pessoal quanto na profissional, eu procuro deixar de lado para continuar numa crescente legal.

E qual é o seu maior desafio depois de um 2016 tão bom?
​O mais difícil é você se manter. No clube grande, a cobrança é enorme, a torcida sempre quer títulos, então temos que manter o alto nível.

O Cuca foi o principal responsável pela sua rápida adaptação?
O Cuca tem a parcela dele. Primeiro Deus, e depois acho que ele foi o principal nisso tudo.

O Palmeiras contratou jogadores consagrados, como Felipe Melo e Michel Bastos, e começaram os comentários sobre o risco de haver problemas no ambiente. Como está até agora?
A gente recepciona muito bem todos os atletas que chegam. A gente trata bem, procura enturmar o mais rápido possível. Esses dias eu postei lá no Instagram o Michel jogando videogame com a gente (risos). É bom para os torcedores, nossos fãs, verem o nosso dia a dia, como as coisas acontecem. Estamos muito felizes.Não mudou nada. Não só eles, mas todos os outros que foram contratados chegam para somar. Isso qualifica ainda mais o nosso elenco e a gente tem tudo para chegar forte em todas as competições.

Você admite que pensou que poderia ser convocado para a Seleção. É um objetivo para você neste ano?
​Não diria que é um objetivo. Primeiro eu penso no Palmeiras. Se acontecer vou ficar muito feliz. Se não acontecer, vou manter o foco aqui para a gente seguir nessa trajetória.

Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones has been nominated for the 2021 European Golden Boy Award, as reported by The Liverpool Echo.

Enjoying an outstanding 2020/21 season, the 20-year-old registered nine goal contributions from 34 fixtures in all competitions; four goals and five assists [Transfermarkt].

The playmaker joins England internationals Bukayo Saka, Mason Greenwood and Jude Bellingham on the 100-man shortlist for the accolade [Liverpool Echo].

The award was founded by world-renowned Italian sport newspaper Tuttosport, whilst journalists across continental media outlets such as Bild, L’Equipe and A Bola will come together to announce an eventual victor [Liverpool Echo].

Fellow Red Neco Williams made a 40-man select for the prize last year, however the Welshman has not been selected as a 2021 candidate [This is Anfield].

As you can imagine, loads of Liverpool diehards took to Twitter to summarize their feelings upon hearing about these latest developments.

أكد المدرب التونسي معين الشعباني المدير الفني لفريق الكرة الأول بنادي المصري، أنهم أدوا مباراة كبيرة أمام الأهلي، مشيرًا إلى سعادته باجتهاد اللاعبين.

وقال الشعباني في تصريحات تلفزيونية بفضائية “أون تايم سبورتس 2”: “لم نمنح الأهلي مساحات واخترنا أن نضغط عليه ولا نعطيه الراحة، وهذا ما جعله يلعب بشكل هجومي في الجزء الثاني، واستمر تركيزنا حتى آخر وقت”.

وأضاف: “الأهلي فريق كبير لكنه لم يجد راحته اليوم لأننا ضغطنا عليه، وأرى أن أفضل لاعب اليوم كان محمد الشناوي وهو حارس كبير”.

واستكمل: “كل المباريات في الدوري المصري صعبة ولا توجد مباراة سهلة”.

وأتم: “العلاقة مع مجلس الإدارة جيدة ويحاولون في ظل الظروف الصعبة توفير الإمكانيات، الأمور تحسنت من الناحية المادية نوعًا ما”.

واختتم: “النادي المصري لا يوجد له مداخيل مادية ولا بد من إيجاد حلول وإن شاء الله يحافظون على استقرار النادي”.

Former Southampton sporting director Les Reed has confirmed that Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans was once on the Saints’ radar and judging by his superb performances with Leicester City in recent seasons, it seems clear that it was a poor decision by the South Coast club not to pursue their interest in the Belgian any further.

Reed revealed in an exclusive interview with The Transfer Tavern that Tielemans was one of a number of current Leicester City players that was on Southampton’s transfer radar during his time with the club.

The Belgium international initially joined the Foxes on loan in January 2019 and after an impressive second half of the season, he joined Brendan Rodgers’ side in a club-record deal worth £40m.

In his time at the King Power Stadium, the 24-year-old has made 108 appearances, contributing 17 goals and 19 assists, which included a stunning effort in the FA Cup Final last season, whilst he has also established himself as a regular in Roberto Martinez’s Belgium side.

His performances have reportedly caught the eye of Liverpool and the Merseyside club could make an approach for the 24-year-old in the current summer transfer window, especially after they pipped Leicester City to a Champions League spot in the Premier League last season.

[snack-amp-story url=”https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-southampton-transfer-rumours-and-news” title=”Read the latest Southampton transfer rumours and news!”]

Therefore, it seems clear that Southampton should have worked harder to bring in Tielemans back when they were interested in him, as he could have been an excellent player for the South Coast club.

You could certainly argue that Tielemans has been just as good as Saints captain James Ward-Prowse last season, as his 7.09 average rating from WhoScored in the Premier League was slightly better than the Englishman’s 7.07 average rating, and having two players of such quality in the middle of the park would have been brilliant for Southampton.

The Leicester City man would have been a superb signing by Southampton and fans should be frustrated that the club didn’t do more to bring him to St Mary’s back when they were interested in him.
