da leao: O São Paulo tem na bola parada um forte aliado em 2022 até o momento. Isso porque o time comandado por Rogério Ceni marcou, dessa forma, 16 dos 50 gols do time nesta temporada. Inclusive, na vitória sobre o Juventude por 2 a 0, pela Copa do Brasil, o primeiro gol, anotado por Arboleda, saiu após cobrança de escanteio de Igor Vinícius.

da pinup bet: Só neste ano, foram sete gols marcados em cobranças de pênaltis, oito após cobranças de escanteio, e um em cobrança de falta, o equivalente a 32% das bolas na rede da equipe até aqui, números importantes e que vêm ajudando a equipe a chegar longe nos torneios que disputa.
Atualmente, o Tricolor está em três competições: Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil e Copa Sul-Americana, mas os gols válidos pelo Campeonato Paulista também entram nesta lista das bolas paradas. A Copa do Brasil, aliás, é um sonho, já que o Tricolor não possui nenhuma taça desta competição.
Uma das táticas de Rogério Ceni para atuar em bom nível em meio a tantos jogos e viagens é fazer um rodízio de jogadores. O treinador tem optado em diversificar suas peças de acordo com a necessidade e adversário. Agora, o Tricolor terá uma pausa nas viagens e atuará na capital paulista nos próximos cinco jogos – quatro deles em casa e um em Itaquera.
Agora, o Tricolor volta suas forças para o Campeonato Brasileiro. O time recebe o Cuiabá domingo, no Estádio do Morumbi, às 16h, pela sexta rodada. Atualmente, a equipe ocupa a sétima posição da tabela, com oito pontos.
da dobrowin: A “clinical” player now wants to leave Chelsea and has a “desire for a change of scenery”, with an elite club looking set to knock on his door in the January transfer window.
Players linked with Chelsea exits in January
da heads bet: Manager Enzo Maresca has showcased a real ruthlessness in axing players he deems unfit for his long-term plans, with his treatment of stars like Raheem Sterling in the summer highlighting that big-name players are no exception.
Chelsea in direct contact with £161k-per-week star ahead of potential move
The west Londoners have reached out to him.
ByEmilio Galantini Oct 12, 2024
Alongside Sterling, Maresca and Chelsea offloaded Ian Maatsen, Conor Gallagher, Lewis Hall, Romelu Lukaku, Omari Hutchinson, Angelo Gabriel, Hakim Ziyech, Malang Sarr, Tino Anjorin, Thiago Silva, Lesley Ugochukwu, Armando Broja, Djordje Petrovic, Trevoh Chalobah, Kepa Arrizabalaga, David Datro Fofana, Aflie Gilchrist and Bashir Humphreys – either on loan or permanently – and a few more players could follow them out of the door this winter.
Indeed, it is believed Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk could be allowed to leave on loan, as the Ukraine international winger has been reduced to cup appearances under Maresca thus far.

Chiefs are keen for Mudryk to justify his potential £89 million price tag, and may well green-light a temporary exit so he can accumulate much-needed minutes.
Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile could also be sold by Chelsea, with the French defensive duo not exactly standing out as key players in Maresca’s matchday squad so far in the Premier League.
Left-back Ben Chilwell is most likely to leave Chelsea. According to Maresca, the £200,000-per-week defender was meant to leave in the summer, and it is believed that Chilwell is attracting serious interest from Manchester United ahead of January.
“I think so. Hopefully we can give him some minutes tomorrow,” said Maresca before Chilwell played 45 minutes against Barrow in the EFL Cup.
“The idea for him was to leave. In the moment that he’s here, he’s one of the squad, he’s training. He will be in the squad tomorrow, and hopefully we can give him some minutes.”
Carney Chukwuemeka wants to leave Chelsea
Midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka, who has joined Chilwell in struggling for chances under Maresca, has also been linked with the Stamford Bridge exit door.
The £100,000-per-week ace is attracting interest from Serie A as Milan plan their own January transfer window, and the Rossoneri have shortlisted the player who they believe could seriously strengthen Paulo Fonseca’s ranks.
Carney Chukwuemeka
According to Calciomercato, Chukwuemeka is ready to leave Chelsea, and has a “desire for a change of scenery”. It is believed Milan are planning a loan bid for the 20-year-old when the transfer window reopens as they look to “take advantage” of Chukwuemeka’s eagerness to quit the Blues.
Chelsea signed the player from Aston Villa for around £22 million, right at the start of Clearlake Capital’s takeover in 2022, but things haven’t exactly taken off for him since then, despite some praise from the likes of Marcel Desailly.
“I like Carney Chukwuemeka because he is like an artist who comes onto the stage,” said Desailly.
“He has got the ball. Now is my moment. Shine. You see the dribbling. He is sure about what he is going to do and he is clinical. I love it.”
da pixbet: Birmingham City fans won’t just be content with their side winning promotion at the end of the season, hopeful that the Blues could potentially take the Championship by storm after rising out of League One’s murky waters.
da bet esporte: Back-to-back promotions do happen, just ask Ipswich Town supporters, with Chris Davies wanting to be the manager to hopefully take Birmingham all the way back up to the Premier League one day, having been out of the big time since relegation at the end of the 2010/11 season.
When the Blues were routinely keeping their heads just above water in the second tier, before a disastrous relegation, they were also responsible for some top homegrown starlets rising up the ranks, with Demarai Gray one standout example.
Gray's time at Birmingham
Gray might not have quite reached the insane heights of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham after he left the club, nor Nathan Redmond who went on to be a household Premier League name, but the tricky winger has had a career of note after exiting the Blues in 2016.
Gray would fire home eight goals from 78 appearances in the West Midlands, on top of picking up four assists, which would then alert Premier League suitors such as Leicester City to his services.
The Foxes splashed out £3.75m to get their desired target, with Gray going on to become a dependable first-teamer at the King Power Stadium over various campaigns, amassing 13 goals and 15 assists from 169 total clashes.
The 5 foot 11 attacker also found himself on the books of both Bayer Leverkusen and Everton briefly, before a move to Saudi Arabia came to fruition, where the Al-Ettifaq FC winger now earns a bumper £75k-per-week salary.
With Gray going on to make a name for himself away from his boyhood employers, many homegrown products back at St. Andrew’s must have looked to the winger for inspiration when attempting to cut their own teeth in the senior game, with the Blues prodigy even labelled as ‘another Demarai Gray’ back in 2015.
What happened to Birmingham's next Demarai Gray
It was an outlandish label to put above the player in question’s head nine years ago, but that pressure was still put on his shoulders by then Birmingham boss Gary Rowett, who will no doubt regret this suggestion now.
Gary Rowett at Birmingham City.
Viv Solomon-Otobar – who lined up for the Blues down the opposite flank to Gray – was the talent heralded as the second coming of the ex-Birmingham number 33, off the back of scoring his first-ever strike for the club in a 5-2 win versus Fulham.
Away from scoring a notable goal at Craven Cottage, Solomon-Otobar would only go on to score one more strike for the second-tier outfit, with just eight Championship appearances coming his way during his final campaign.
First Impressions
What did pundits and fans alike think about their new star signing when they arrived? Football FanCast's 'First Impressions' series has everything you need.
Yet, Birmingham did want to keep Solomon-Otobar rooted at the club despite some up-and-down displays, even offering him a new contract after some loan spells away, but he opted to join Bulgarian titans CSKA Sofia instead in 2019 to begin his nomadic career post-Birmingham.
The former recipient of the Blues Young Player of the Season award has played in Bulgaria, Ukraine and Scotland since exiting, with a spell now out in faraway China seeing him shine.
Solomon-Otobar is now on the books of Chinese Super League side Cangzhou Mighty Lions, as the 28-year-old continues to try and rebuild his career after failing to live up to his top billing in England.

This year, in league action, Solomon-Otobar managed to amass an impressive ten goal contributions from 29 games, as the 28-year-old’s unusual career path goes on.
Rowett would never have anticipated the 5 foot 11 attacker’s playing days going this way, with Solomon-Otobar arguably now forgotten about at St. Andrew’s, rather than being remembered as another bright star from the club’s academy.

Jake Lehmann made 73 for the home side but generally their batting struggled

Peter Siddle was in the wickets•Getty Images
Jackson Bird and Peter Siddle wound back the clock to help Tasmania run through South Australia for 227 on the first day of their Sheffield Shield match.After the Redbacks won the toss, Bird claimed South Australia’s first four wickets in the morning session before Siddle cleaned up after lunch, with both bowlers finishing with 4 for 51.Only Jake Lehmann and debutant Ben Manenti offered any real resistance for the hosts, with the latter attacking Siddle late in his innings.Manenti’s first day in the Sheffield Shield then reached another high just before stumps, when his a one-handed screamer at second slip allowed Harry Conway to remove Caleb Jewel and leave Tasmania 1 for 17 in reply.That was a rare highlight for the Redbacks on a tough Sunday at Adelaide Oval. Bird in particular had the ball moving, with the 35-year-old beating openers Henry Hunt and Jake Weatherald off the seam to have them caught behind.Former Test skipper Tim Paine caught well behind the stumps in his second game back, diving to his left to remove Weatherald when Bird had squared up the left-hander.Bird claimed Travis Head’s wicket in his next over for five when the left-hander inside-edged a yorker onto his stumps. The former Test quick also trapped Jake Carder lbw for 13, leaving SA struggling at 4-59.About the only man who looked in against the seamer was Lehmann. He brought up 50 just before tea when he pulled Bird for four amid three consecutive boundaries, after also taking a liking to Sam Rainbird earlier.The left-hander eventually fell victim to Siddle, who removed Lehmann and Wes Agar in successive balls in the final session. Siddle also got through Alex Carey’s bat and pad to bowl the Test wicketkeeper on 25, before gaining and edge from Conway to take his fourth victim.At that stage, it looked as though the Redbacks would likely be all out for less than 200, before Manenti got swinging later and hit Siddle for two powerful sixes over midwicket and mid-on.The son of Australia’s world champion men’s rugby sevens coach John Manenti, Ben helped the Redbacks put on 35 for the last wicket to give South Australia something to bowl at come Monday.
The new project is aiming to make the 130kph barrier in women’s cricket a realistic mark not just to breach, but to maintain
Andrew McGlashan20-Sep-2022
Darcie Brown has clocked around 122-125kph in WBBL and international cricket•Getty Images
It is billed as one of the new frontiers for female cricket. Who will be the first bowler to break 130kph?There needs to be a few caveats here in that it might have already happened, but until reasonably recently, speed data in the women’s game had not been widely collated and is still not uniform across competitions.However, from currently available numbers, South Africa’s Shabnim Ismail, who is regarded as one of the quickest around, is reported as being clocked at 128kph and sent down a delivery at 126.7kph against Australia at the 2020 T20 World Cup in Australia.The former Australia quick Sharon Tredrea, who played in the 1970s and 1980s, is regarded as one of the fastest to have played the game and there are mentions of her saying she was clocked at 133kph/83mph although evidence is slim.Now Project130, a partnership between Cricket New South Wales and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), as part of their new Cricket Lab initiative which will see the NSW set-up work with the university on a number of collaborations, is aiming to make the 130kph barrier a realistic mark not just to breach, but then to maintain.Described as “designed to improve the potential of female fast bowlers, with the end game of moving from bowling an average of 115kmh to 130kmh” it will be “a world first research project to develop a formative set of data which predicts potential and physiology type to increase speed and reduce injury risk.”One of the key figures behind the work is CNSW head of sports science and sports medicine Patrick Farhart. He says the evidence currently suggests the gap between male and female fast-bowling speeds is wider than other areas of high-performance sport. But he believes by studying areas including biomechanics, strength and power of those who operate at high pace, the key ingredients can be found with specialist training then put in place. There is also a desire to look outside of cricket and find athletes currently in other disciplines who may have the raw attributes for the sport.”There are some bowlers who have gone close to that 130kph,” Farhart told ESPNcricinfo. “For me this is something I think is achievable..once we are able to profile what the correlations are with high speeds then we can start to look at setting in place more individualised and targeted programmes around getting bowlers to improve their speed.South Africa’s Shabnim Ismail is among the fastest bowlers in women’s cricket•Associated Press
“It’s very dependent on your action, it’s very specific to an individual at the moment. Males will tend to generate bowling speed through linear momentum, we think, and we think that a lot of females – not all – will generate bowling speed from upper body, trunk momentum.”However, I think we are seeing changes in the female game now where a lot of the girls are starting to bowl with techniques which males are using and this wasn’t happening anywhere near as much 10-12 years ago. Girls generating momentum through run-up speed, a braced front leg, that’s starting to happen a lot more now.”Tayla Vlaeminck, who is currently injured, and Darcie Brown – the latter clocked around 122-125kph in WBBL and international cricket – are among the fastest in Australia. Elsewhere in the world, England’s Issy Wong has made no secret of wanting to set a new bar for pace bowling and New Zealand’s Lea Tahuhu has been among the quickest for much of her career. New South Wales and Australia quick bowler Stella Campbell is another of the current generation who has been clocked over 120kph.”I think we aren’t far off [130kph] already looking at the crop of fast bowlers we have in the game,” Campbell said. “We are already pushing those speeds. It’s always out there and you are trying to get that competitive edge where you can.”Rachael Haynes, who announced her international and state retirement last week, highlighted pace bowling as one of the areas that had developed most during her career.”I think in the past there’s always probably been a handful of quick bowlers and you might not necessarily have to come up against them all the time,” she said. “I think it’s really exciting for the game as well. Their skill is pretty evident to see too, players who can swing the ball and bowl quick bouncers – it’s uncomfortable, but it’s exciting to watch. I hope that’s conveyed to the general public.”If this new project brings the desired results in years to come, a few more batters are likely to be hopping around.

England made short work of Australia in last year’s World Cup•Getty Images
As they prepare to face England as part of the T20 World Cup preparation, Matthew Wade has pinpointed Australia’s heavy defeat against them in last year’s tournament as the key moment in the transformation of their T20 fortunes.Though Australia started their campaign with victories over South Africa and Sri Lanka, the crushing nature of the loss to England – with 50 balls to spare – left them under run-rate pressure and was a “lightbulb” moment, according to Wade.Australia completed the group stage with a thrashing of Bangladesh and a very convincing chase against West Indies to book a semi-final spot. Wade and Marcus Stoinis were the heroes against Pakistan before David Warner and Mitchell Marsh carried them home in the final against New Zealand.Related

Australia and England have final World Cup spots up for grabs as run-in gathers pace
“The World Cup game, they demolished us and that kind of changed the way we went about playing T20 from that point onward and we have been playing a different style of cricket,” Wade said as Australia arrived for their whistle-stop visit to Perth. “Think that was the real lightbulb moment, I suppose, for the team that we needed to change the way we wanted to play.”Having ditched the five-specialist-bowler strategy they had used for much of the build-up at the start of the World Cup, and was the preferred tactic of former head coach Justin Langer, they then reverted to that balance against England by recalling Ashton Agar only to crash to 21 for 4 from where they couldn’t recover. It was a change that lasted just one match.Like England, Australia now put huge stock in a deep batting order with Wade usually coming in at No. 7, backing four specialist bowlers and a collection of allrounders for the 20 overs in the field.”It will be good to match-up against them now,” Wade said. “We obviously go a little bit harder with the bat, we play seven batters, we know we can get a lot more runs and we know you need that against England, you need to be able to score 180-200.”I feel like from that point in the World Cup to now we’ve got a team together that can post big scores and chase down big scores. Really keen to see how we go against England, they’ve been the benchmark, to be fair, in T20 for a long time. I know they got knocked out of the World Cup but they were arguably the best team up until that point. So it will be good to test ourselves.”The one new face in the squad for this year’s World Cup from the last edition is Tim David who has added some fearsome power to the middle order as he showed against West Indies at the Gabba with 42 off 20 balls to follow the 54 off 27 he made against India in Hyderabad.”We knew what we were going to get with Timmy, but to do it the way he has straightaway at international level is really impressive,” Wade said. “The advantage he has got is he has played so much T20 cricket already and has played against a lot of these guys in other leagues so he has a little bit of experience that other players may not get. And with Mitch Marsh coming back and Stoinis, we are starting to get a really powerfully line-up.”

Chelsea soon have a double-header against Newcastle United, facing the Magpies in a Premier League clash on Sunday before taking on Eddie Howe’s side again in their Carabao Cup last 16 clash midway through next week.
Maresca appears to be resting his most crucial men for those encounters, meaning some fringe stars need to grasp an opportunity to impress this evening. With Mykhailo Mudryk battling for his Chelsea future, a stellar performance against Panathinaikos would do wonders to lift the pressure off his shoulders.
Unfortunately, Maresca won’t be able to call upon exciting youngster Josh Acheampong, amid an ongoing contract dispute at Stamford Bridge which is threatening to ruin his career there.
Chelsea reportedly believe Acheampong is attempting to leave behind their back, as his representatives offer him around to interested sides, with Maresca shedding light on the situation on Wednesday.
“It’s a shame. I think Josh potentially can become a top player. He is still 18, so still very young, so many things can change for him, but he can potentially be very important thing for Chelsea,” said Maresca’s on Acheampong’s situation.
“It’s so important for the club that our intention is not to lose him. The first thing we need to do is to find a solution for his future. The most important thing at this stage is to get minutes, enjoy and to play football. For him, I don’t know the people who are trying to solve the problem, if they are helping him or not. I really like Josh and I would really like to have him here with us but it is not possible.”
While Acheampong won’t have an opportunity to play tonight, there is a real chance for winger Pedro Neto to stake a claim in the starting eleven.
Sancho and Madueke in danger of Chelsea axe for Neto
According to GiveMeSport, Neto is on course for a chance to stake his claim in the Chelsea starting XI on a regular basis.
The Portugal international is set to be handed Maresca’s nod for their clash against Panathinaikos, and if he impresses, it is believed Neto could be set for a more prominent starting role in the coming weeks.
Pedro-Neto-Chelsea
It is even believed that the likes of Jadon Sancho and Noni Madueke could be dropped in favour of Neto, despite the duo being on a total of around £150,000-per-week impressing in the early stages of this season.
Called “underrated” by Fabrizio Romano, Neto impressed during a brief cameo in their defeat to Liverpool on Sunday, but it looks as if the 24-year-old former Wolves star could be seen more often very shortly.

-Os processos estão muito desenhados, meu pensamento é que a gente contrate um treinador não somente pelo nome, mas alinhado a esses processos. O orçamento também precisa ser respeitado. A gente está vendo com calma, ainda não tem nome, não tem nenhuma negociação. A gente está alinhando o perfil. Lógico que internamente a gente já avaliou nomes.

Tem uma ideia de jogo pavimentada desde o início. A gente construiu um elenco novo, muitos foram contratados, o orçamento era pequeno, e o grupo foi montado dentro dessa realidade. Conseguimos trazer atletas competitivos e comprometidos. A gente quer um técnico que dê continuidade ao que foi construído com Zé Ricardo – completou.
E o tempo? Apesar de nos bastidores, conforme o LANCE! apurou, as falas apontarem que a escolha seria realizada antes do duelo ante o Cruzeiro, às 16h (de Brasília) deste domingo (12), no Maracanã, Brazil diz que o assunto é tratado com parcimônia.
-Tudo tem o seu tempo. Estamos tendo o cuidado em trazer alguém certo para o processo, são muitas questões: valor da comissão, se o treinador vai aceitar, está ou não empregado… São muitas coisas além do perfil, ideia de jogo e alinhamento com os processos. Isso requer dias. Os profissionais aqui são extremamente competentes e podem suprir essa ausência por um tempo.

Durham beaten as Duckett, Clarke combine but hopes fade for hosts
ECB Reporters Network01-Jul-2022
Dan Christian couldn’t guide Notts to the knock-outs this year•Getty Images
Nottinghamshire 184 for 6 (Duckett 53*, Clarke 51) beat Durham 183 for 8 by four wickets Nottinghamshire Outlaws’ last desperate hopes of a seventh successive T20 quarter-final berth finally vanished despite a comfortable victory over Durham Jets by four wickets in the Vitality Blast at Trent Bridge. Amongst other things, they needed a tie, no less, in Leicester to retain any hope but Leicester just refused to oblige.It was at least a rousing farewell for Dan Christian, their departing veteran captain who led the Outlaws to T20 glory in 2017 and 2020. He could revel in watching 51 from 30 balls for Joe Clarke and Ben Duckett’s unbeaten 53 from 34 that helped bring success at the gallop with three overs to spare.Christian’s fellow Australian and opposite number, Ashton Turner, threatened to upstage things earlier with a rapid 33 as Durham’s third wicket added 54 in five overs but Steven Mullaney removed him and two new batters in four balls as the Jets backfired.From 98 for five with 51 balls to come, Michael Jones, the opener, reached 41 until brilliantly caught on the mid-wicket rope by Mullaney off Jake Ball and Durham finished with 183 for eight, late-order hitting bringing 70 from the final six overs. It proved far from enough.The evening had started painfully when the opening delivery, from Ball, cut back to strike Graham Clark flush in the box, flooring him and causing a three-minute delay for treatment. Durham, already out of quarter-final contention, chose to bat but lost Clark, slicing his drive for 14, and Ollie Robinson, who skied a swipe to the keeper, as Ball conceded only four in the fifth over.But in the later charge, Brydon Carse, batting at No.7, was dropped off Ball when twelve before surging to 25 from 17 balls when becoming Lyndon James’s maiden T20 scalp, whilst Ned Eckersley finished unbeaten with 23 from a dozen balls. Andrew Tye hit two sixes in his not-out 13.Even by the second over of the reply, however, with Liam Trevaskis taken for 19, the target seeemed less than daunting. The left-arm spinner had revenge of sorts when Alex Hales top-edged a sweep to go for 26 but the Outlaws had struck as many sixes in the reply’s first 47 balls as the Jets managed in their entire innings.Clarke, who had creamed 53 with Hales in 26 balls for the first wicket on a typically good Nottingham pitch with short boundaries inviting mayhem, then added another 55 in 35 balls with Duckett.Eventually miscueing against a leg-break from the Australian, Nathan Sowter, Clarke gave way to Mullaney, another victim of spin when soon stumped by Robinson off Trevaskis next over. James arrived to send his third and fifth balls for six off Carse and at the end of an over that cost 16, only 46 were needed from the final 42 balls.James fell smiting for 20 but, maintaining the tempo, Tom Moores hit his first four balls for boundaries until magnificently caught by Sowter who took the ball jumping on the boundary, threw it up before crossing the rope then grasped it again back on the field. Dramatic, indeed. But not enough, even though Sol Budinger fell stumped with three needed.
