Na próxima rodada, o Internacional enfrenta o Goiás, no estádio da Serrinha. Já o Ceará recebe o Flamengo, no Castelão. Ambas as partidas serão realizadas no dia 13 de setembro.

A partida

O Ceará começou melhor o jogo e poderia ter aberto o placar logo aos 9 minutos. Vina recebeu a bola de Matheus Gonçalves, limpou a jogada e deu para Cleber. O centroavante bateu fraco, mas mesmo assim a bola quase entrou. Victor Cuesta salvou quase em cima da linha fatal.

Além de melhor na partida, o Vozão ainda conseguiu anular muito bem time do Internacional. Os comandados de Eduardo Coudet tiveram muita dificuldade em furar o sistema defensivo do Ceará.

O jogo coletivo do Colorado não funcionava bem e só um lance individual para quebrar a forte marcação do Vozão. E foi graças uma jogada individual de Edenilson que o gol saiu. Ele passou bem pelo marcador e cruzou rasteiro pelo lado direito. Thiago Galhardo antecipou todo mundo e abriu o marcador: 1 a 0 para o Inter.

No segundo tempo, o Ceará voltou com tudo em busca do empate. Os primeiros minutos da etapa complementar foram de enorme sufoco para equipe Colorada. O Vozão sufocou o Inter, mas não conseguiu transformar sua superioridade em gols.

Passado o momento de sufoco, o Internacional conseguiu equilibrar o jogo, foi para cima e criou várias chances para marcar. Mas Edenilson (duas vezes) e Boschilia não aproveitaram suas oportunidades para ampliar o marcador.

O Ceará fazia o possível para tentar achar o gol de empate, mas o Internacional nos contra-ataques era perigosíssimo. A sorte do Vozão é que Fernando Prass estava lá para salvar, como foi no chute de Boschilia. O experiente goleiro conseguiu espalmar e evitar que o Colorado ampliasse o marcador.

Porém, não é sempre que Fernando Prass consegue salvar. Gabriel Lacerda foi sair jogando e acabou desarmado por Boschilia. O meia serviu Thiago Galhardo, que driblou Prass e empurrou para as redes: 2 a 0 Internacional.

O Ceará ainda foi valente no final do jogo e ainda tentou diminuir o prejuízo, mas o Internacional conseguiu administrar bem o resultado e garantir a sexta vitória no Campeonato Brasileiro.

The West Indies captain was fined 60% of his match fee, and his team-mates were fined 30% for maintaining a slow over rate during their innings defeat to New Zealand in the first Test in Wellington

ESPNcricinfo staff05-Dec-2017

West Indies captain Jason Holder has been suspended for one Test and fined 60% of his match fee, and his team-mates have been fined 30% of their match fees, for maintaining a slow over rate during their innings defeat to New Zealand in the first Test in Wellington.Holder had previously been found guilty of a minor over-rate offence during the first Test against Pakistan in April earlier this year. The offence for the Wellington Test amounted to his second minor-rate offence in a Test within a 12-month period and resulted in his suspension.West Indies were found to be three overs short of their target after time allowances were taken into consideration. Players are fined 10% of their match fees for every over their side fails to bowl in the allotted time and the captain is fined double the amount.The charge was laid by on-field umpires Ian Gould and Rod Tucker, third umpire Bruce Oxenford and reserve umpire Wayne Knights. Match referee Chris Broad then imposed the suspension on Holder.The second and last Test of the series begins from December 9 in Hamilton.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is hoping to secure defensive reinforcements before the transfer window closes next week, with Jurrien Timber expected to miss most of the campaign after injuring his ACL.

What's the latest on Eric Garcia to Arsenal?

According to Football Transfers, Arsenal are now working on a deal for Barcelona centre-back Eric Garcia following the news regarding Timber, who was signed this summer for £38m.

It is claimed that Arteta is searching for a mobile and versatile defender who can serve in a multi-functional role, and Garcia could be the man for the job.

Barcelona are well-covered across the defensive third and are looking to alleviate the weight of their £1bn worth of debt, and Garcia could leave, with Xavi willing to grant a loan departure if his £99k-per-week wages are covered.

How good is Eric Garcia?

Not only could Arteta adequately replace Timber before the end of the month, but he could actually wield his own version of Premier League champions Manchester City's Ruben Dias by completing a swoop for Garcia.

The 6 foot centre-half is already well known to Arteta, who worked with the 23-year-old while serving as understudy to Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium prior to taking the reins at Arsenal.

Garcia only forged 35 displays for himself with the Citizens before joining La Blaugrana on a free transfer in June 2021, and given his ball-playing skills that draw comparisons to Dias', the Gunners' Spanish boss might be wise to push ahead with a swoop for his young compatriot.

As per FBref, Garcia ranks among the top 5% of central defenders across Europe's top five leagues over the past year for pass completion, the top 1% for progressive passes and the top 3% for passes attempted and progressive carries – illustrating his passing proficiency and quality with the ball at his feet.

He is indeed akin to City's Portuguese titan, who ranks among the top 2% of positional peers for pass completion and the top 1% for passes attempted per 90, and given that Arsenal and Manchester City sit second and third in the 2023/24 Premier League ranking for passes completed (behind Chelsea, who have played a game more), he looks a custom-made fit.

Once hailed an "incredible" prospect by Guardiola, Garcia could bring dynamism and composure to bolster the north London side's backline, boasting the level of requisite technical quality to succeed within Arteta's thriving system.

Technical director Edu would do well to orchestrate a deal and secure an instant replacement for the beleaguered Timber, who has already demonstrated his versatility and quality through his ball-playing ability, ranking among the top 2% of pass completion, the top 3% for passes attempted and the top 1% for progressive passes per 90.

Given the aforementioned metrics, it certainly looks like Garcia could replicate the passing of his Dutch peer, but whether he could emulate the robustness that was seen across his first few matches before his injury remains to be seen.

But given the similarities to Dias and the way in which Arsenal play, this could be a move to ensure the Emirates outfit have a sterling opportunity to seek out silverware and continue the ascent to the very top of European football.

كسر مهاجم ليفربول داروين نونيز صمته بشأن تصرفه المثير للجدل على حسابه الرسمي بموقع “إنستجرام”.

وبعد فوز ليفربول على توتنهام 4-2 في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز في 5 مايو، قام نونيز بحذف جميع صوره المتعلقة بليفربول من حسابه على “إنستجرام”.

تصرف نونيز أدى إلى إثارة تكهنات برحيله عن ليفربول خلال سوق الانتقالات الصيفي، خاصة مع الانتقادات التي تعرض لها المهاجم مؤخرًا، فضلاً عن رحيل المدرب يورجن كلوب.

أوضح نونيز في تصريحات أدلى بها أنه تأثر بالتعليقات السلبية التي تلقاها عبر حسابه على “إنستجرام”، وكان ذلك سببًا رئيسيًا في حذف منشوراته.

وقال نونيز في تصريحات لـ”Por la Jersey”، عبر “ESPN Uruguay”: “منذ اللحظة التي تبدأ فيها اللعب وحتى اعتزالك، سيكون هناك دائمًا شخص ينتقدك، من قبل، كنت أنظر إليهم كثيرًا وقد أثر ذلك علي”.

وأضاف: “من يقول إن تلك التعليقات السلبية لا تؤثر عليه فهو كاذب، تلك التعليقات السلبية الموجهة إليك ستؤثر عليك دائمًا”.

وواصل: “إنهم يقولون لي كل شيء، لكنني أتجاهل تلك التعليقات لأنها لا فائدة منها بالنسبة لي، أنا لا أنظر أبدًا إلى التعليقات السلبية على وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي، على الأقل الآن أنا لا أنظر إلى أي شيء، ولا حتى الأشياء الجيدة، إذا سارت المباراة بشكل سيئ بالنسبة لي، فأنا أعتمد على عائلتي”.

واستطرد: “عندما تسوء الأمور بالنسبة لي، أشعر بالإثارة، لكنني أحاول أن أضحك مع عائلتي وألا أظهر لابني الغضب الذي أشعر به، ما حدث في المباراة موجود بالفعل، لقد حدث بالفعل، وهناك دائمًا انتقام”.

عقب ذلك قام نونيز بتغيير صورته الخاصة به على “إنستجرام” إلى صورة له مع شريكته وطفله وهم يرتدون جميعاً أطقم ليفربول بعد الفوز 2-0 يوم الأحد على ولفرهامبتون.

O Botafogo é sinônimo de empate no Campeonato Brasileiro em 2020. A equipe comandada por Paulo Autuori é, ao lado do Grêmio, a que mais possui igualdades no placar: sete ao todo. Contra o Santos, no último domingo, não foi diferente: zero a zero. Na partida disputada no Estádio Nilton Santos, contudo, o resultado pareceu representar até mesmo lucro.

Pelo compromisso diante do Vasco, na próxima quarta-feira, válido pela Copa do Brasil, o Botafogo entrou com cinco mudanças no time titular e uma equipe que nunca havia entrado em campo junta. O entrosamento pesou e o Alvinegro teve dificuldade para incomodar o Santos, principalmente no ataque.

Em um 4-4-2, a intenção do Botafogo era acionar Davi Araújo e Rhuan em velocidade nas pontas em contra-ataques. Os laterais do Santos, contudo, não avançaram com frequência – consequentemente, o desejado espaço para as transições não apareceu.

O melhor momento do Alvinegro na partida foi no final do primeiro tempo, quando Caio Alexandre liderou as ações da equipe. O camisa 19 colocou a bola no chão, tentou criar chances a partir de toques curtos, mas o Botafogo não teve nenhum lance efetivo de perigo.

Do outro lado, Gatito Fernández e a defesa tiveram trabalho. Por mais que Marinho, um dos destaques individuais do Brasileirão, não tivesse aparecido para o jogo com a frequência usual, o Santos assustou o Glorioso. As tramas aconteciam geralmente pelo lado esquerdo e eram lideradas por Carlos Sánchez e Arthur Gomes. No segundo tempo, a entrada de Kaio Jorge também aumentou o poderio ofensivo do Peixe.

Por mais que carregar o estigma de ser a equipe que mais empata no Brasileirão – ainda mais no começo da competição -, seja ruim, a igualdade, pelo o que foi apresentado dentro de campo, não foi um dos piores cenários para o Botafogo. Agora, a chave do Glorioso muda: o clube de General Severiano pensa na Copa do Brasil.

Liverpool have enquired about a deal to sign Barcelona forward Abde Ezzalzouli, but the move coming to fruition will likely depend on one condition, according to reports.

What position is Abde Ezzalzouli?

Ezzalzouli is naturally a left-winger who has plied his trade at the Camp Nou since 2021 having initially joined the club’s youth set-up, but having only ever made 14 senior appearances under Xavi, he spent last season out on loan at CA Osasuna where he excelled.

The Morocco international firmly established himself as Jagoba Arrasate’s top-performing offensive player, so despite the fact that he still has another three years remaining on his contract with his parent club, he’s been earmarked by several teams in England.

In the Premier League, Aston Villa have already submitted an offer whilst Crystal Palace have also approached, alongside recently relegated Leeds United, who held talks earlier in the window, though a move ever came to fruition.

The Catalans are believed to have told the 21-year-old that they won’t allow him to leave on loan and are only willing to sanction a permanent transfer, something which Jurgen Klopp appears to be interested in if the following update is to be believed.

Are Liverpool signing Abde Ezzalzouli?

According to Spanish outlet Sport (via Sport Witness), Liverpool have "asked" for information on Ezzalzouli, with Barcelona having "received communication of the interest" from Merseyside.

The Camp Nou outfit are "waiting" to see whether FSG will submit an official offer for the attacker, who "wants out" despite recently holding encouraging talks that could see him stay for the remainder of the season.

How many goals has Abde Ezzalzouli scored?

During his time at CA Osasuna, Ezzalzouli racked up eight goal contributions (six goals and two assists) in 34 appearances which is an impressive record for a loan player, and he even posed a threat regardless of if the ball hit the back of the net or not.

Barcelona’s £4k-per-week earner ranked in the 97th percentile for successful take-ons by players in his position, which shows how much he loves to dribble past his marker and create chances for himself and his fellow teammates in the final third, form which saw him receive two man-of-the-match awards from WhoScored.

The Beni-Mellal native is also a versatile operator with his ability to be deployed everywhere across the frontline, including out wide on both the left and right flanks alongside at centre-forward, which is yet another attribute that the boss will no doubt be attracted to.

Furthermore, Ezzalzouli, who has been dubbed the “Moroccan Flash” by talent scout Jacek Kulig due to his pace, is even making a name for himself on the international stage having emerged as the top goalscorer at the U23s Africa Cup of Nations, so he truly is a star in the making and someone that has the potential to be the long-term future of the club.
