مدرب أوكلاند سيتي: أعلم كيف سيلعب بيراميدز أمامنا.. وشيء واحد يقلقني

أكد بول بوسا المدير الفني لنادي أوكلاند سيتي النيوزيلندي، على علمه بمدى قوة بيراميدز قبل المباراة المرتقبة بينهما، والتي تجمعهما ضمن منافسات بطولة كأس إنتركونتيننتال.

ويستضيف بيراميدز بطل قارة إفريقيا، نظيره أوكلاند سيتي بطل أوقيانوسيا في التاسعة مساء غدًا الأحد باستاد الدفاع الجوي، في إطار الدور الأول من بطولة كأس إنتركونتيننتال.

وقال بوسا في تصريحات خلال المؤتمر الصحفي اليوم: “أنا أعلم جيدًا مدى صعوبة المواجهة التي تجمعنا بنادي بيراميدز في كأس إنتركونتيننتال خاصة كونه بطل قارة أفريقيا وأحد أهم أنديتها حاليًا، وبعد متابعة عن قرب، أعلم جيدًا مدى الجودة التي يتمتع بها الفريق والإمكانيات الكبيرة في صفوفه وبالتالي المهمة ستكون غاية في الصعوبة أمامه”.

وأوضح: “تابعت الفترة الأخيرة فريق بيراميدز سواء معسكر الإعداد القوي أو اللقاءات الأخيرة في الدوري المصري، وأعلم عنه كل شيء، هو فريق يحاول فرض نفسه في الملعب من خلال الاستحواذ الكامل على الكرة”.

وواصل: “كون اللقاء يقام في مصر، فأنا أعلم أن بيراميدز سيلعب على السيطرة وفرض أسلوبه، وعلينا الاعتماد على الدفاع القوي في مواجهته، من أجل الخروج بنتيجة جيدة تؤهل فريقي إلى الدور الثاني”.

وزاد: “فريقي يمتلك خبرة كبيرة في مشاركات عديدة بكأس العالم للأندية والبطولات الكبرى وسيحاول الاستفادة من تلك الخبرات رغم قوة المنافس الممثل لقارة أفريقيا، القوية والأكثر خبرة في مثل هذه المباريات”.

وأتم: “أوكلاند سيتي يستعد جيدًا لتلك المواجهة الصعبة من خلال معسكر لعدة أيام في أبوظبي، وأكثر ما يقلقني هو الإرهاق خاصة وأن بيراميدز يلعب على أرضه في حين استغرق أوكلاند قرابة 17 ساعة في رحلة طيران من أجل الوصول للإمارات ومنها إلى القاهرة”.

His value has soared 100%: Ipswich have struck gold on the new Darren Bent

When Ipswich Town last suffered relegation from the Premier League, it’s unlikely they were expecting such a long exile from England’s top flight.

Indeed, the last time the Tractor Boys slipped back down to the English Football League, it took them nearly two decades to return to the big-time, having found themselves marooned in the second tier and League One season after season after dropping out of the top division back in 2002.

Despite sinking back down and struggling to get back up, Ipswich did uncover a gem around this time in Darren Bent, who would later leave the building in 2005 for Charlton Athletic to forge a very successful Premier League career.

Darren Bent's heroics at Ipswich

Before going on to play for the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, on top of an England call-up or two, Bent’s humble beginnings originated in Suffolk.

In total, the now retired centre-forward picked up 56 of his 218 career strikes at Portman Road, with the-then wide-eyed Bent very much garnering a reputation for being a deadly finisher with his boyhood club.

A move up to the Premier League with the Addicks happened at the close of his most impactful season in Suffolk, with Bent accumulating a blistering 35 combined goals and assists during the 2003/04 campaign, which then resulted in a big £3m move to the Valley occurring.

The well-travelled striker is still held in high regard at Ipswich to this day, but there is another forward in McKenna’s current ranks who possesses the same clinical edge Bent was known for and he could well make the relegation-threatened club a sizeable profit soon.

Ipswich's brand-new Bent

There are parallels to be made between the disappointing relegation suffered by Ipswich in 2002 and the Tractor Boys’ current unfolding campaign, with George Burley taking Ipswich down in 18th spot, the same position they currently occupy under McKenna’s rule.

That’s hopefully where the parallels end in terms of league positions and fates come the end of the 38-game marathon.

That said, Liam Delap in the here and now has become Ipswich’s second iteration of Bent; he’s direct, can score goals and he’s quick. What’s not to like?

Delap has definitely lived up to his bumper £20m price-tag this season with a hefty haul of ten goals and two assists next to his name in Premier League action, leading to Bent actually praising the ex-Manchester City man as a more than capable top-flight calibre attacker.

Described as a “one-man battering ram,” by Opta Analyst, his double digits in front of goal have even seen Chelsea reportedly emerge as frontrunners for his signature, with Ipswich very much facing a losing battle to keep the young forward around even if they do secure survival.

It’s safe to say that the Tractor Boys really did strike gold securing the lethal marksman’s services for a modest £20m, considering reports now suggest he’s worth an increased fee around the £40m ballpark, representing an increase in value of 100% over the course of a whirlwind few months.

Delap will hope he can further emulate Bent in solidifying himself as a reliable source of Premier League goals moving forward, whether that be with Ipswich or – as Bent had to do – having to spread his wings for opportunities elsewhere.

Aston Villa: Romano shares "really important" update on Rashford deal

Reliable transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano has shared a “really important” update on Aston Villa and their chances of signing Marcus Rashford permanently this summer, with the England international currently enjoying a new lease of life under Unai Emery.

Marcus Rashford praised since joining Aston Villa

After being left out in the cold by Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford, the 27-year-old opted to pursue a different club in January.

ByBrett Worthington Mar 25, 2025

Rashford was linked with a Man United exit for months, before Villa eventually took the bait and signed him on loan with an option to buy for around £40 million – a move which NSWE and Monchi will be overjoyed with.

Since putting pen to paper on a temporary move to the Midlands, Rashford has worked his way back into the England fold with four assists from nine appearances in all competitions and some truly impactful performances.

“The Holte End have a new hero,” said Sky pundit Jamie Redknapp after Rashford’s excellent substitute appearance in a 2-1 win over Chelsea.

“That sub made all the difference. He was fantastic. Rashford came on, he gave energy, enthusiasm, everything we want to see from him. The running, the desire… he was excellent. He gave them that impetus to put Chelsea on the back foot.

Aston Villa's MarcusRashfordreacts after the match

“Right now, he looks like he is loving every second of it. He’s involved, he’s showing enthusiasm – all the things that were thrown at him at Man Utd, he is now doing the opposite. And he’s got sweat on his face and he’s not jogging around like ‘I don’t want to be here’. He looks like he wants to be in that claret and blue shirt.”

His impressive form means Villa could even face competition from the likes of Bayern Munich for Rashford’s signature this summer, even if Emery’s side possess an option to trigger his buy clause.

Fabrizio Romano shares "really important" Marcus Rashford update

Now, speaking on GiveMeSport’s Market Madness, respected reporter Romano has shared an update on Villa’s plans to sign Rashford permanently.

He claims that Villa’s finances will be “really important” in determining whether they’ll trigger the £40m buy option, but in any case, the journalist expects him to remain beyond 2024/25.

“Aston Villa are very happy with Marcus Rashford in general,” said Romano.

“So I don’t think, in any case, if they decided to trigger the £40m option clause, I don’t think they would do that just to sell the player again.

“So in that case, I see Marcus Rashford staying at Aston Villa and having the opportunity to make something long-term with the club. What I can say about Marcus Rashford is that it’s going to be really important to understand financially what happens for Aston Villa.

“So now they’re obviously really focused on the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and to see what happens in the Premier League table from now to the end of the season. That’s going to be obviously really important, and then we will have to see financially.”

Everton academy gem was ahead of Gordon, then Thelwell sold him for £1.5m

Everton’s time at Goodison Park has very nearly run its course with a second test event at Bramley-Moore Dock now complete.

It remains to be seen what players will be picked by David Moyes for Everton’s first competitive fixture at their fresh home, with the Scotsman having to wrestle with the futures of many of his camp now owing to their contracts running down, on top of loanees such as Jack Harrison and Jesper Linderstrom perhaps not sticking it out long-term.

Whatever does take place, the options at Moyes’ disposal on the left side of the attack look to be light with Iliman Ndiaye currently out injured and homegrown gem Anthony Gordon now way away from the grasps of Goodison at Newcastle United.

Gordon's rise at Newcastle since leaving Everton

Gordon has had to walk away from Thomas Tuchel’s England camp this international break due to his own injury difficulties, but it’s fair to say his career has come on leaps and bounds since waving goodbye to Merseyside.

Anthony Gordon celebrates for Newcastle

Indeed, the Liverpool-born attacker is front and centre of Eddie Howe’s EFL Cup-winning side right now, with Gordon boasting an impressive nine strikes and six assists this season in all competitions, even if he did miss that Wembley showdown with the Reds through suspension.

Those numbers alone actually match his entire output from when he was in the Everton first-team picture, with Gordon only mustering up a disappointing seven goals and eight assists at the Toffees, having previously shone in many a youth side.

Still, this didn’t prove to be a setback for the now fully fledged Three Lions international who has gone on to excel past Merseyside.

On the flip side, however, a fellow former Toffees youth product hasn’t quite gone on to reach the heights once expected of him, despite bettering Gordon back in their U23s education.

The Everton academy star who was ahead of Gordon

It’s to be expected in the cruel landscape of youth football that some won’t hit the heights they believe they’re destined for, with the hype next to their name often working against them.

Nathan Broadhead is arguably a forgotten face when examining the recent crop to have come up through the youth ranks at Goodison, with the likes of Gordon stealing most of the plaudits for his heroics now at St James’ Park.

But, back in 2021, many would have been expecting Broadhead to be the star to hit the big time in the same way Gordon has, considering the Welsh starlet had a number of goal-and-assist laden campaigns under his belt playing for the U23s.

Broadhead had been in and around the U23 set-up since 2017, with Gordon still having to cut his teeth in the U18 picture initially, whilst his counterpart went on to tally up 17 goals and seven assists from 59 appearances in the highest level of youth football.

Anthony Gordon

Gordon paled in comparison with his output for the U23s too – helping himself to just eight goals and five assists from a lesser 28 appearances – but only one of them would ultimately go on to forge a senior career at the club.

Despite making a name for himself in the youth circles at the club, Broadhead only made a meagre two first-team appearances for the Toffees, with the path to stardom for Gordon laid out for him when he seized his senior chances better.

He has since gone on to play in the Premier League more regularly at his current employers Ipswich Town after Kevin Thelwell sanctioned a £1.5m switch, but he has had to work hard to get back up to the level, having joined the Tractor Boys when they were marooned down in League One.

Ultimately, it’s extremely hard to predict how a youngster’s playing days will pan out, with Gordon potentially set for even dizzier heights at the Magpies, whilst Broadhead stares a relegation back to the Championship in the face.

Edwards: 'We were miles off the pace, to have pulled it off is remarkable'

Southern Vipers coach hails turnaround in form that captured latest trophy of stellar career

Valkerie Baynes24-Sep-2023Charlotte Edwards’ mum called it “a miracle” but in truth, Southern Vipers had it coming, even if it didn’t feel like it at times this season.The first team to claim the domestic double, with a convincing five-wicket win against Blaze in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy Final at Northampton on Sunday, has been building a juggernaut under the guidance of a coach who has also won the inaugural Women’s Premier League title and the Women’s Hundred in the space of six months.But while the prospect of winning both the 20-over competition which bears her name and the 50-over title was prominent during Vipers’ 2022 campaign, when they won the former but lost the final of the latter as Northern Diamonds prevented them from winning a third RHFT in a row, this achievement came against the backdrop of an unremarkable start to the season which saw them ranked fifth when the competition paused in August for the Hundred.Related

Windsor ties knot on Southern Vipers domestic double

Vipers won their last five group games, including three after the mid-season resumption, to qualify directly for the final, in which they defeated the same opposition as in the Charlotte Edwards Cup title decider in June.”I just can’t believe it,” Edwards said. “To think that the team has played the way they have done, stood up when they needed to. We were miles off the pace, if I’m honest. I just felt we had the momentum coming into today, but finals are finals and you never quite know. To have pulled this off is quite remarkable, as my mum says, ‘a miracle’.”It was Edwards’ 11th final and seventh trophy in 12 campaigns as coach – and she isn’t finished. After a 10-day break, she will head to Australia to join up with Sydney Sixers for the upcoming WBBL, where her side will be looking to go one better than last season’s runners-up finish.”I’ve got good players, good staff, good people, and people who are committed and are winners,” Edwards said of her successful teams. “When I recruit, I look at the character.”A case in point is Emily Windsor, whose match-winning 57 off 53 balls on Sunday was typical of what Edwards described as her effectiveness, smarts and “big heart”. Two years ago, Windsor had played a similar knock when Vipers defeated Northern Diamonds at the same ground for back-to-back RHFT titles.Windsor was well supported on this occasion by Freya Kemp, one of three 18-year-olds in Vipers’ Final line-up , alongside Ava Lee and Mary Taylor, which proves that Edwards is also building for the future. Kemp was making her return as a batter only during this domestic season after a back stress fracture interrupted a promising start to her England career as an allrounder.Freya Kemp and Emily Windsor leave the field after Southern Vipers won the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy Final•Getty Images”That is as good as I’ve seen her play, and for England that is a massive highlight,” Edwards said of Kemp. “Once she gets bowling again, she will be one of the best allrounders in the world.”I just prepare the team as best I can. If we’d lost today, it wouldn’t have made me a good or bad coach; that’s what coaching is about – preparing the players and hopefully getting the reward for the players when they do well like that. It is something special. Watching Kemp bat like she did was the highlight of my season.”Windsor was also full of praise for her batting partner, with whom she shared an unbroken stand of 94 for the sixth wicket after Vipers had slipped from 100 for 2 to 109 for 5.”She has the most unbelievable amount of talent, and I think we’ve seen that,” Windsor said. “Early on in the innings, I was saying to her: ‘Let’s be there at the end, mate; let’s be the ones who do this.'”How she played is probably the best I’ve seen her play. She played with maturity, at points she was telling me to calm down, which is a challenge for her. It is really special for her to be there at the end; she probably should have hit the winning runs.”It was Windsor who completed the job with a four over deep extra cover off Kirstie Gordon.”I don’t know what it is, but throughout my career, when it’s been tough and when there’s pressure on, my game has just seemed to go up a gear,” Windsor said. “But I think when I was out there today, I just wanted to do it for the team. It has been a special year for this group; the squad and all the playing staff have dug so deep just to get us to this position. To go straight through to the final, we couldn’t even believe that. To win it is probably the most special that we have done.”Windsor also paid tribute to her coach: “For me, Lottie just gets the best out of every player that she has in her team. She treats everyone as individuals. She gets to know her players on and off the field, and she knows what makes us tick.”That is why teams perform for her: people love playing for her, it’s a great environment. She just always finds a way of making things fun and getting the best out of her players. It is an absolute pleasure to play under her. Her knowledge of the game is pretty phenomenal, and the experiences that she has had.”

Erling Haaland’s eventual winner proved the difference between Ange Postecoglou and Pep Guardiola’s sides, but the former still found positives to take away from the 90 minutes, despite it being their fourteenth top flight loss of the campaign.

“Yeah I think so. First half we were just a little bit too eager to get forward with the ball,” said Postecoglou on Tottenham’s positive second-half against Man City.

“I thought we were really wasteful and when you are (like that) against City it allows them to get into a rhythm of their game. They can pick you off at different times and we just didn’t handle that part of the game well. They scored and had a couple of good chances to get further ahead.

“I certainly felt second half we dominated the game and territory. We were pretty relentless. Much better with the ball and a lot calmer but just missing a goal and ultimately fell short.

“It did look more like us today. At least from my perspective. We were really relentless. We played aggressive football. We took it to a very good opponent. We never tapered off at all. If anything, like you said, bringing the guys on made us stronger towards the end of the game. Disappointing to lose but I think you see the benefit of us being refreshed and going into a game well prepared. That level of performance in the second half, if we can begin to get consistent with that then we will be able to push on.”

Overall, it’s been a disappointing second campaign in charge for Postecoglou, who is relying on a good run in the Europa League to end Tottenham’s 17-year trophy drought.

Preparations are already underway to bolster the squad ahead of next campaign, with Tottenham believed to be targeting a new centre-back this summer.

Tottenham set to attempt move for Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite

According to CaughtOffside, Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite is on their transfer shortlist in that regard, following the Lilywhites’ repeated shortages at centre-half throughout 2024/2025.

Everton's JarradBranthwaitein action with Manchester United's Harry Maguire

Tottenham are ready to rival Man United in the race for Branthwaite this summer, as per this report, and it is believed even Real Madrid were once pushing to land the England international, though a move failed to materialise.

The 22-year-old will apparently command a price tag of around £70 million, though, so Levy will need to invest heavily in his acquisition. That being said, he currently stands out as one of the country’s most promising centre-backs.

“Branthwaite has been outstanding,” said Jamie Carragher last year. “I think this lad is pretty special. He’s a big part of why Everton in my eyes have a good chance of staying up, him and his partnership with [James] Tarkowski.”

Apenas um time não é patrocinado por casas de apostas no Brasileirão; confira

MatériaMais Notícias

da bwin: A visibilidade que as casas de apostas vêm adquirindo no Brasil está em fase crescente e, para o fã do futebol, em particular, tal crescimento fica mais evidente, pois houve um aumento significativo na relação entre tais empresas e clubes de elite. Além de parcerias com clubes individualmente, as casas também vêm patrocinando até mesmo competições estaduais, nacionais, e continentais, como a Copa Libertadores.

Esse crescimento é de certa forma intrigante, pois ao contrário do que muitos podem pensar, situação similar não acontece em outros países na mesma magnitude com que vem acontecendo no Brasil. Com tantos times da Série A sendo patrocinados, fica até mesmo difícil de saber os times que não são patrocinados por casas de apostas.

Podemos, porém, adiantar que dos 20 clubes da última edição da Série A do Brasil, há 19 que possuem algum vínculo de casas de apostas com o time masculino profissional. Resta um no Brasileirão.

Resta 1

O único time da Série A do Brasil cujo time masculino ainda não é patrocinado por casas de apostas é o Palmeiras, que coincidentemente também é o atual campeão da competição. Todos os outros 19, incluindo o Flamengo, que hoje se encontra na posição de potência no país, possuem ao menos um vínculo com alguma casa de aposta.

Porém, até mesmo a situação do Palmeiras como clube de futebol não fica 100% livre da influência dos sites de apostas, pois no atual momento, o time feminino alviverde é patrocinado por um site. Porém, há realmente algum problema nisso?

O fator principal é que é no mínimo curioso um país onde a atividade de apostar online começou a crescer somente recentemente ter tantos clubes sendo apoiados por sites de apostas. Não há, essencialmente, nada de errado com o fato em específico, pois muitos clubes da elite brasileira dependem dessas parcerias para honrar seus compromissos financeiros, e manter um nível de competitividade aceitável. Alguns chegam a ter as casas como patrocinadores Master.

Confira mais abaixo uma lista com alguns nomes de casas e cassinos que patrocinam times da Série A no Brasil atualmente:

– Betano (Fluminense e Atlético MG)
– Sportsbet.io (São Paulo)
– Pixbet (Flamengo, Santos, Avaí, América MG, Goiás, Juventude)
– Betcris (Fortaleza e Ceará)

Outras casas que poderíamos mencionar aqui seriam:

– Dafabet
– Blaze
– Amuletobet
– Galera.bet
– Estrelabet
– Pix365Bet

Lembrando que a maioria destes sites também operam e oferecem serviços de cassino online, paralelamente às apostas esportivas.

Melhores sites para apostar no Brasil hoje

Sim, é verdade que hoje existe uma infinidade de opções de casas de apostas disponíveis e acessíveis operando no Brasil. Porém, nem todas são de confiança, ou oferecem um serviço de qualidade.

Podemos dizer, porém, que a grande maioria das casas mencionadas acima oferecem serviços de muita qualidade. Se não, não estariam patrocinando os maiores clubes do país, não é mesmo? Ao mesmo tempo, temos casas que não estão na lista mas que oferecem tanto um serviço de apostas como de cassino, que é a bet365, que é respeitada e reconhecida mundialmente. Dito isso, seja para se divertir na bet365 casino, ou no site de apostas da casa britânica, sua experiência com certeza será excelente.

Possíveis cenários para o futuro

A ascensão do mercado de apostas pode ter algumas consequências para os clubes, e também para o próprio país.

A principal delas é a de que os clubes possam se tornar muito dependentes de empresas e sites relacionados a apostas. O principal receio de todos os envolvidos é que possa acontecer algum tipo de interferência ou manipulação com relação a resultados de jogos.

De qualquer forma, essa situação pode ser praticamente descartada uma vez que todos os sites são de reputação internacional séria e sabem que qualquer situação nesse sentido poderia arruinar seus negócios não só no Brasil, mas em todo o mundo.

Em países como Inglaterra, Itália, Espanha, Alemanha, e outros onde as principais ligas de futebol são disputadas, existe no momento esse tipo de discussão sobre a influência das casas de apostas no esporte mundial e sobre como integrar essas empresas ao esporte sem haver prejuízo da isenção necessária para a prática das mais diversas modalidades esportivas.

A verdade é que independentemente de como agir, as apostas cresceram muito no país, pois unem duas paixões e necessidades dos brasileiros: acompanhar esportes e ganhar dinheiro. Dito isso, é bem possível que as apostas tenham chegado para ficar no cenário dos clubes profissionais no Brasil, independentemente dos próximos passos.

Somerset fire with bat and ball to close in on knockouts

Smeed, Kohler-Cadmore fifties down Glamorgan after Brooks and Overton share six wickets

ECB Reporters Network21-Jun-2023Somerset went clear at the top of the South Group thanks to a comprehensive win in their Vitality Blast fixture against Glamorgan in Cardiff.Despite career best batting performances from Kiran Carlson and Timm van der Gugten, Glamorgan’s total of 171 all was not enough as Somerset won by eight wickets with 17 balls to spare.Three wickets each for Craig Overton and Jack Brooks pegged back Glamorgan’s batting efforts before fifties from Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Will Smeed took the visiting team to victory.This win puts Somerset clear of Surrey at the top of the Blast table with 18 points. Glamorgan currently sit outside the quarter-final qualification spots and will most likely need to win all three of their remaining fixtures to make the knockout stages.It was a lacklustre start from Glamorgan who struggled in the opening overs having been put into bat. The early wickets of Will Smale, Billy Root and Sam Northeast reduced them to 14 for 3 with Brooks claiming two wickets and Overton one.There was a 40-run stand between Carlson and Chris Cooke that took the home team past the 50 mark, but it was Carlson who was doing all the scoring. Cooke had made seven runs when he attempted to carve Overton over the extra cover boundary for six. The ball looked as it was going to clear the rope before a superb one-handed grab at full stretch from Kasey Aldridge sent Glamorgan’s leading run-scorer in this competition back to the dugout.When recently arrived overseas signing Cam Fletcher was out for a duck two balls later when he pulled a ball to Sean Dickson at midwicket Glamorgan were 53 for 5 and in danger of crumbling.What followed was a record stand for the sixth wicket between these two teams as Carlson and van der Gugten put on 91 runs to give the home side some hope.Carlson’s 71 took him past 300 runs for the first time in a Blast season and was his first innings over over fifty in the format since 2018. Van der Gugten made 48, his fourth important contribution with the bat in his six Blast matches this season as he continues to show off his all-round ability.The Somerset chase got off to a roaring start thanks to Smeed, but he should have been dimissed in the second over when he was on just 17. He pulled a ball from van der Gugten straight to Billy Root on the deep square leg boundary but the chance wasn’t taken. It was parried over the rope for six and Smeed took full advantage of the life he was given.Tom Banton was the one wicket to fall inside the Somerset powerplay when he was caught at fine leg by Andy Gorvin when he tried to scoop Ruaidhri Smith but that was the only success for Glamorgan until the 13th over as Smeed and Kohler-Cadmore took the game away from them. Smeed crashed eight fours and three sixes in an innings of 66 that lasted just 36 balls. By the time he was dismissed by Smith the required rate was down to less than a run a ball.Smeed’s dismissal slowed things down a little bit with the support of Tom Abell, Kohler-Cadmore guided Somerset home with 62 not out. The only moment of further alarm for the visitors came when Gorvin had Kohler-Cadmore caught on the midwicket boundary but it was off a no ball.This comprehensive victory is the ninth of Somerset’s Blast campaign and they are closing in on a home quarter-final.

جابي: أكره تصرفات لاعب ريال مدريد.. وما فعله بعد الكلاسيكو غير مقبول

انتقد أسطورة أتلتيكو مدريد وقائد الفريق السابق، جابي، نجم نادي ريال مدريد، معترفًا في الوقت ذاته أنه يكره تصرفات اللاعب كثيرًا.

وتعرض فينيسيوس جونيور لاعب ريال مدريدإلى انتقادات كثيرة خلال السنوات الماضية، وذلك في ظل تصرفاته المثيرة للجدل سواء داخل أو خارج الملعب ودخوله في مناوشات مع الفريق الخصم.

وأثار فينيسيوس من جديد الجدل حوله خلال الفترة الماضية، حيث اعترض على تبديله خلال مواجهة الكلاسيكو بين ريال مدريد وبرشلونة ورفض مصافحة المدرب تشابي ألونسو.

كما قام فينيسيوس الدخول في مشادة كلامية مع جناح برشلونة، لامين يامال ، عقب نهاية المباراة.

وفي تصريحات إلى ”El Larguero” ، يرى أسطورة أتلتيكو مدريد وقائد الفريق السابق، جابي، أن سلوك فينيسيوس سيئ حقًا حيث قال: “إنه يختبر كل من حوله يوميًا، بالنسبة لي كان ما فعله ألونسو متوقعًا، فالمدرب هو من يجب أن يتخذ القرار”.

وأضاف: ”أكثر ما أكرهه في لاعب كرة القدم هو التمثيليات واللفتات المبالغ فيها، وأن يتعرض لاختبار أمام الجمهور ويتصرف بشكل سييء، افعل ما تشاء خلف الكواليس وليس هناك مشكلة في ذلك”.

وأوضح جابي في حديثه: ”ماذا كنت سأفعل بعد الكلاسيكو؟ بعد المباراة، يجب أن تتحدث معه، لا يمكنك تجاهل الأمر وتركه يصدر بيانًا دون أن يعتذر للمدرب، هذا أمر غير مقبول وأناني”.

وأردف: ”إنه مزيج من عدة أمور، أن تنجرف وتفعل أشياء في رأيي غير لائقة، أن تحكم على زملائك في الفريق والمدرب وبلد بأكمله، وتقول إننا جميعًا عنصريون، ما الذي يحدث بحق الجحيم؟ هذا ليس طريقي ومن الصعب جدًا التعامل بهذه الطريقة، أن تنجرف وتفعل أشياءً غير صحيحة”.

واختتم جابي حديثه عن فينيسيوس: ”لا أحد يستطيع أن يظن أنه فوق الفريق، أي لاعب يشعر بالتفوق لديه مشكلة، إلا إذا كنت ليونيل ميسي الذي فاز بالمباريات بمفرده”.
