Tricampeão paulista após 90 anos, na semana passada, o Verdão busca agora o tricampeonato brasileiro, algo que jamais aconteceu em quase 110 anos de história do clube.
O Verdão só teve duas chances de faturar o Brasileirão por três anos consecutivos em sua história, e foram nas temporadas de 1974 e 1995.
Ao Canal 11 de Portugal, Abel Ferreira falou sobre a estreia no Brasileirão e afirmou ao veículo de seu país que vai fazer de tudo para defender o bicampeonato:

Uncapped Hampshire fast bowler in XI for opening game of series at Headingley
ESPNcricinfo staff01-Sep-2025Sonny Baker, the Hampshire fast bowler, will make his international debut in the first match of England’s ODI series with South Africa at Headingley on Tuesday.Baker, 22, has only played 11 List A games but caught the eye during the Hundred, where he took nine wickets in seven appearances for Manchester Originals. Capable of pushing the speed gun up to 90mph/145kph, he impressed with the Lions over the winter and was handed an England development contract earlier this year.He will be joined in England’s pace attack by Jofra Archer, playing his first ODI since the Champions Trophy, and Brydon Carse. Harry Brook captains the XI in his second series since taking charge, while Jamie Smith and Ben Duckett will continue to bed in their opening partnership.Related

Brook said that England were “excited to see where he goes” after Baker’s performances in the Hundred, noting in particular his duels with Kane Williamson, David Warner, Steven Smith and Jonny Bairstow while playing for Originals.”He’s been awesome in the Hundred,” Brook said. “We’ve seen him bowl at some of the best batters in the world and he had them on toast, so it’s been really good to see. He bowls at high pace and he can swing it both ways with exceptional death skills as well. To have him in the team and for him to be opening up tomorrow is awesome. I think there’s quite a lot of people excited to see where he goes.”There have been a few moments. The spells he bowled to Williamson and Warner and then Smith and Bairstow, all four are world-class batters in the shorter format and he was all over them. He bowled with high pace and high skill. He was awesome to watch this year and everyone was talking about him.”On the day that Jamie Overton shelved first-class cricket, Brook agreed that Baker could potentially force himself into the equation for the Ashes: “I don’t select the red-ball side, but yeah, he’s obviously done really well this summer and we’ll see how he goes tomorrow. He’s bowling at high pace with a lot of skill, and it looks like he has quite a lot about him as well.”England XI for 1st ODI: 1 Jamie Smith, 2 Ben Duckett, 3 Joe Root, 4 Harry Brook (capt), 5 Jos Buttler (wk), 6 Jacob Bethell, 7 Will Jacks, 8 Brydon Carse, 9 Jofra Archer, 10 Adil Rashid, 11 Sonny Baker
ظهر كودي جاكبو، لاعب فريق ليفربول، في مؤتمر صحفي اليوم للحديث عن مباراة آيندهوفن المرتقبة في بطولة دوري أبطال أوروبا، مساء يوم الأربعاء.
ويستضيف ملعب “الأنفيلد” مباراة فريقي ليفربول وآيندهوفن في إطار منافسات الجولة الخامسة من دوري أبطال أوروبا، مرحلة الدوري، موسم 2025/26.
وقال جاكبو في تصريحات نشرتها شبكة “ليفربول إيكو” الإنجليزية: “اللعب ضد آيندهوفن؟ حسنًا، من الواضح أنه أمر مميز للغاية، لقد كنت هناك لفترة طويلة، لدي ذكريات كثيرة، إنه لأمر مميز، لقد تعلمت الكثير هنا كلاعب، ونضجت كشخص خارج الملعب أيضًا”.
وعن السبب وراء اختفاء المرونة في ليفربول مؤخرًا، قال: “لا أعرف أين ذهبت، لكن علينا أن نحاول استعادة ذلك، نعلم أننا في وضع صعب، علينا أن نتكاتف، وهذا ما نحاول فعله داخل الملعب وخارجه، ذهنيًا وأدائيًا”.
وأضاف: “لم تكن هذه أفضل فتراتنا وعلينا أن نكافح من أجل تجاوز ذلك، نعلم أننا قادرون على ذلك، فقد قدمنا أداءً جيدًا مثل ذلك الذي قدمناه ضد ريال مدريد، لكن علينا مواصلة القتال، الأهم هو أن نبقى متحدين مهما حدث”.

وواصل: “نطالب بعضنا البعض بالمزيد، إذ يجب أن نؤدي بشكل أفضل وهذا ما يستحقه النادي والجماهير، نحن صادقون مع بعضنا البعض، ونقول إن بعض الأمور يجب أن تتحسن للعودة إلى ذلك المستوى”.
واسترسل: “تجاهل الضجيج من الخارج؟ قد يكون الأمر صعبًا، إذا كنت لا ترغب في قراءة أي شيء أو استيعاب أي شيء، فمن شبه المستحيل القيام بذلك في الوقت الحاضر مع وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي والإنترنت، ولكن إذا كنا معًا في غرفة الملابس، يمكننا اكتساب الثقة من بعضنا البعض، يمكننا أن نتحسن إذا فعلنا ذلك”.
وأفاد: “في آيندهوفن واجهنا الكثير من المشاكل (عندما كان لاعبًا هناك) وواجهنا صعوبات، فهم من أكبر الأندية في هولندا، لذلك كان الأمر صعبًا، الأمر لا يختلف هنا، لكن على مستوى مختلف، وهذا يجلب معه الكثير من المزايا”.
وفيما يخص الثقة، قال: “إذا فزت بالعديد من المباريات وسارت الأمور كما تريد، ستشعر دائمًا بتحسن أكبر من خسارتك، نحن نعلم مدى جودتنا وقد أظهرنا ذلك أحيانًا هذا الموسم، وبالتأكيد الموسم الماضي، علينا فقط أن نتحسن”.
وأكد: “يتحمل المدرب مسؤولية ذلك، لكن اللاعبين يتحملون مسؤولية كبيرة تجاه أنفسهم وتجاه المدرب والجماهير، نحن نعرف ما يمكننا فعله، أنا أتحمل المسؤولية بالتأكيد”.
واستأنف: “ليس الأمر جيدًا، كانت هناك مباريات تعادلنا فيها، ثم خسرنا في الدقائق الأخيرة، كريستال بالاس وتشيلسي ومانشستر يونايتد، أظهرنا قدرتنا على العودة، لكننا لم نحافظ على ذلك، علينا ألا نتأخر ثم نسجل المزيد من الأهداف، لا أريد حقًا أن أقول إن هذا يؤثر فيك، ولكن عندما يحدث ذلك مرتين، فنعم، لهذا السبب نتدرب لتغيير ذلك”.
وعن اللاعبين الجدد، قال: “في كل مرة ينضم لاعب جديد، يتطلب الأمر بعض التأقلم مع المحيطين به، إنها عملية مستمرة وتسير على ما يرام، لكن عدم فوزنا بالمباريات لا يساعد، نحن نتحسن، لكن عدم فوزنا قد يصبح موضوعًا للنقاش.
وعما يدور في غرفة الملابس، قال: “شعرنا ببعض الإحراج بعد مباراة السبت، فقد خسرنا 3-0 على أرضنا أمام جماهيرنا، نعلم أنهم هنا لمساعدتنا في كل موقف صعب، ولكن علينا أن نرد لهم الجميل أيضًا، في الأيام التي تلت ذلك، لا أريد أن أقول إننا كنا غاضبين لكننا حاولنا التحدث معًا وأن نكون صادقين مع بعضنا حول ما يجب علينا فعله لتحسين أدائنا على أرض الملعب”.
وأصر: “نعلم أيضًا أنه يجب علينا التكاتف لتقديم أداء جيد وتحقيق الانتصارات، الجميع يدرك أهمية تحمل المسؤولية داخل الملعب وخارجه، كان هذا مجرد حديث مع زميل في الفريقولم يكن اجتماعًا فعليًا، لكننا ندرك أهمية تحمل المسؤولية، هذا ما تحدثنا عنه، نحن صادقون، وإلا فلا جدوى من الحديث”.
وما إذا كان يتحدث مع لاعبي آيندهوفن حتى الآن، قال: “أتحدث مع شخص ما من وقت لآخر، جميع اللاعبين الذين كانوا حاضرين معي، لا أتحدث عن المباراة، لا أتحدث عن هذا، بل أتحدث عن سير الأمور وحالهم”.
The Sun Group’s first payments for the Northern Superchargers franchise will be made on Thursday after which Yorkshire will clear their debts
Matt Roller31-Jul-2025Yorkshire will start to clear debts of £25 million on Thursday when the first payments from the sale of Northern Superchargers are made by the Sun Group. Yorkshire were the only host county to sell the whole of their 51% interest in their Hundred team onto external investors due to the club’s perilous financial position, and the deal is one of six that has now been completed.The Sun Group, an Indian media conglomerate who also own Sunrisers Hyderabad (IPL) and Sunrisers Eastern Cape (SA20), bid just over £100 million to buy the Superchargers earlier this year. Their first payments, worth around £50m, will be made on Thursday, with the remainder due later this year once they have assumed operational control of the franchise.Yorkshire’s accounts state that the club received loans worth a combined £5.8m from “a group of committed individuals” – including chairman Colin Graves – in the last financial year, while loans worth a combined £14.9m from the Graves Trusts are due to be repaid by October. Sanjay Patel, the club chief executive, said that clearing those debts is Yorkshire’s “first priority”.Related

“The deal puts the club in a strong financial position, which has been far from the case for many years here, and we can start looking towards a very bright future,” Patel said on Wednesday. “The first priority is clearing our debts. We will then be looking at how we can invest the surplus funds to not only safeguard the future, but enable us to flourish.”Yorkshire last month incorporated a new subsidiary called Headingley Investment Limited, which is intended to generate profits that will then be reinvested. Patel added: “Yorkshire Cricket now has an opportunity to thrive, from the recreational game all the way through to our professional teams, and we will be focused on planning the next chapter in the club’s long history over the coming months.”The Sun Group have already told the ECB that they intend to change the name of the franchise next year and ESPNcricinfo has learned that ‘Sunrisers Leeds’ and ‘Northern Super Sunrisers’ are being considered. Two other teams are also likely to be renamed, with Manchester Originals becoming ‘Manchester Super Giants’ and Oval Invincibles becoming either ‘MI Oval’ or ‘MI London’.Yorkshire will receive 80% of the money raised from their decision to sell their 51% stake in the franchise, with the rest shared between the other first-class counties (10%) and the recreational game (10%). They will also receive their share of the funds raised from the sale of the ECB’s minority stakes in the other seven franchises.Lancashire (21%) and Glamorgan (1%) also opted to sell part of their shares in their franchises – Manchester Originals and Welsh Fire respectively – and each county will receive around £400,000 on Thursday of “unfettered” funds linked to those sales. The ECB will control the way in which funds from the sale of their stakes are spent with “guardrails” designed to ensure “sustainability”.The ECB held a board meeting on Wednesday to clear the first payments to counties, and chief executive Richard Gould said that Yorkshire would receive a “very significant” sum this week. “Often when something is sold, the money gets taken and it’s put into a yacht that’s parked off the Bahamas,” Gould said. “Here, all of this – every single penny – is going back into the game.”Gould also attempted to dissuade non-host counties from expanding their stadiums specifically in the hope of hosting a franchise if the Hundred expands, saying that minimum capacity requirements would be around 7-8,000. “We’re not looking to see investment going into creating white elephants,” he said. “What we don’t want is a load of empty plastic seats.”Vikram Banerjee, the Hundred’s managing director, also revealed that there are still minor details to resolve in Surrey’s deal with Reliance Industries Limited for Oval Invincibles, though all parties are confident that it will be signed by early October. Nottinghamshire’s deal with Cain International and Ares Management is the other that is yet to be completed, but Banerjee said the deal is “fully there”.”We offered all the investors the opportunity to sign and close immediately, whenever the legals were all done… or close formally at the end of the season,” Banerjee said. “Those two chose that months ago.”Trent Rockets, they’re all there bar the singing (sic). The documents are all signed and all the rest of it is fully there. With the Oval Invincibles, there are, I think, three things left on their venue-hire stuff that they’re working through. They’re small things. It’ll be a matter of weeks, and that’ll get signed out.”Banerjee will lead a meeting on Thursday afternoon to discuss the Hundred’s regulations around player recruitment for 2026, with some teams pushing for a shift to an auction rather than the existing draft. Rashid Khan and Steven Smith have already signed for teams where they have affiliations with incoming investors for the 2025 season, which starts on August 5.
Vidarbha allrounder Harsh Dubey chipped in with 84 in a game where Rishabh Pant took body blows
Shashank Kishore08-Nov-2025Dhruv Jurel struck his fifth first-class century and second in the match, to strengthen his case for a middle-order spot in next week’s first South Africa Test in Kolkata.Jurel struck an unbeaten 127, rescuing a floundering India A innings for the second time in the match, as they declared on 382 for 7, setting South Africa A 417 to win in a little over three sessions. The visitors were 25 for 0 at stumps, with openers Lesego Senokwane and Jordan Hermann surviving 11 testing overs from Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep and Prasidh Krishna.Siraj was particularly menacing, testing the inside and outside edge of Senokwane in his last two overs, where there were as many as three appeals for caught behind that were turned down – all superb decisions by umpire Akshay Totare – before he shouldered arms and survived a close leave to one that just missed the off stump. Siraj’s spell read 6-2-10-0.Related

Rishabh Pant returns to India's Test squad for South Africa series
Jurel came in to bat with India A reeling at 108 for 4 when Rishabh Pant, the captain, retired hurt on 17 after copping multiple blows on the body and helmet by fast bowler Tshepo Moreki. Prior to this, India had lost KL Rahul after he managed to add just one to his overnight 26 when he was bowled off a nip-backer from Okuhle Cele.Jurel found an ally in allrounder Harsh Dubey, who took on the role of the aggressor early on in their partnership. Having had very little bowling to do in the first innings, Dubey proved his batting chops in making 84 as he put on 184 for the sixth wicket with Jurel. Dropped at slip off the very first delivery, Dubey used his feet well to loft spinners Prenelan Subrayen and Kyle Simmonds down the ground. He was also excellent while sweeping.At the other end, Jurel blunted a fired-up Moreki by defending with a straight bat and playing as close as he could to the body. Against spin, there were no half measures: he was either fully forward while driving, or assured while rocking back to cut. For much of his innings, Jurel hardly played across the line.On 49, Jurel had a massive slice of luck when he lunged forward to defend a sharp turner from Subrayen as the ball bounced back onto the stumps in a manner reminiscent of Siraj’s dismissal at Lord’s off Shoaib Bashir to signal England’s victory earlier this year, except this time the bails remained intact. To his credit, Jurel cashed in on that luck, getting past a half-century – it took him 83 deliveries to get there – and then shifting gears to cruise past three-figures.South Africa A took the second new ball immediately upon being available and struck off the second delivery when Dubey was out driving to the slips. That is when Pant returned to bat and quickly pounced on anything loose to charge towards a half-century. Pant got hit for a fourth time with a short ball, from Tiaan van Vuuren, the left-arm seamer, as he tried to pull. On 65, he attempted a slog that he top-edged to the wicketkeeper to drag the innings to a close.

Em entrevista, a cria das categorias de base do Palmeiras revelou detalhes de sua relação com o atacante do Real Madrid e destacou que a amizade vai muito além do campo e bola. Em dezembro de 2023, Endrick viajou a Madrid para passar férias com Vini Júnior e, na capital espanhola, também encontrou Rodrygo, companheiro de Seleção e futuro colega de clube.
– Eu passei um tempo com o Vini quando ele estava em Madri, depois passei as férias com o Vini. E eu vi o quanto ele era forte, o quanto ele treinava, o quanto ele estava apto a fazer uma boa carreira. Óbvio que, querendo ou não, ele também é um ídolo dessa nova geração, para mim, para o Guilherme, o Estevão, garotos com quem eu joguei no Palmeiras, e espero que ele vença a Bola de Ouro – disse o jogador, em entrevista ao Ge.

Apesar de ainda não ter se transferido ao Madrid, Endrick já mantém uma relação com Mbappé, ao menos no videogame.
– Ele não sai do meu time do FIFA, não sai do meu time do Ultimate Team, porque ele é um cara que é completo. Ele tem velocidade, tem chute, tem drible e eu fico muito feliz porque, como eu falo, ninguém é maior do que a Seleção, ninguém é maior do que o Palmeiras, ninguém é maior do que o Real Madrid, então, sempre que vêm jogadores de alto escalão é maravilhoso. Espero que o Real Madrid possa vir a conquistar mais títulos e que Deus abençoe o Mbappé bastante para ele ser um grande ídolo no Real – afirmou.
The Detroit Tigers' special season continued on Tuesday night as they walked off the Houston Astros in the bottom of the 10th inning. It was the team's fourth shutout victory in their last seven games and preserved the best record in the American League.
Gleyber Torres was interviewed by the local broadcast after picking up the game's only RBI by working a walk, which provided Riley Greene and Spencer Torkelson the opportunity to perform some on-air funny business. But having fun isn't easy and anyone who thinks that players simply grab the nearest pre-made Gatorade cooler to dump on their teammate and whichever media member is conducting the interview might be interested to know that it actually isn't quite so easy.
Check out Greene and Torkelson rolling up their sleeves and getting to work to ready the bucket.
There has to be a more efficient way to do this. Never in my wildest dreams would I think the two biggest stars on a team are directly responsible for unscrewing a bunch of bottle tops and working together to achieve a perfect liquid hue. They're in the major leagues! There can't be a pre-made prop cooler at the ready for walk-offs?
Old Firm derbies are always occasions to savour, but this Sunday’s meeting could hardly be more jam-packed with narrative.
Prior to this year, both Rangers and Celtic had never previously changed managers in the same season, only for Glasgow’s big two to do so in the same month during a bonkers October.
Brendan Rodgers’ shock resignation on Monday means, 20 years after departing, Martin O’Neill will be in charge of the Hoops while, in the opposition dugout at Hampden, this will be only Danny Röhl’s fourth game as Rangers boss.
The German has overseen back-to-back Premiership wins this week, beating Kilmarnock at Ibrox and then Hibs at Easter Road on Wednesday, and would truly get supporters onside with victory in this weekend’s semi-final, thereby facing either St Mirren or Motherwell in the final on 14 December.
If Röhl is going to lead the Gers to victory, he must make changes to his team victorious in Leith in mid-week, leaving out an underwhelming summer signing once compared to Neymar.
Youssef Chermiti's start to life at Rangers
Fair to say, when Rangers signed Youssef Chermiti from Everton for £8m on deadline day, potentially rising to £10m with add-ons, a few eyebrows were raised.
This makes the Portuguese under-21 international the second-most expensive signing in the club’s history, behind Tore André Flo, surpassing Ryan Kent’s post-liquidation record of £7.5m.
This is despite the fact that, during two seasons at Everton, Chermiti failed to score a single goal, making 24 appearances for the Toffees, albeit these did total a miserly 295 minutes.
The 21-year-old then scored his first senior goal for anyone since May 2023 by bagging the clinching third against Kilmarnock at Ibrox last Sunday.
This earned him the start in Edinburgh on Wednesday, but he did not impress, touching the ball only 33 times, losing possession on 13 occasions and mustering only one shot, as per Sofascore, even if his good work to set up Danilo’s goal, substituted with 13 minutes to go and replaced by Bojan Miovski.
Nevertheless, Chermiti has simply not shown enough to suggest he can cause Celtic’s back-line problems atop Mount Florida, meaning he should begin Sunday’s game among the substitutes.
He isn’t the only member of the Rangers forward line who needs to be replaced, however…
Rangers' Neymar-esque star yet to shine
When Mikey Moore arrived at Rangers this summer, he did so with a massive reputation.
Then-manager Russell Martin praised an “outstanding young player”, sporting director Kevin Thelwell asserted that he will “enhance our attacking unit”, while Jacek Kulig of Football Talent Scout labelled the “absolute top talent” as “the English Neymar”.
However, he is yet to live up to these sky-high expectations, as the table below documents.

As the table documents, Moore is yet to make much of an impact in Glasgow, still awaiting his first goal for the club, while his two assists came against Alloa in the League Cup and Dundee United when Steven Smith was in caretaker charge a fortnight ago.
The Englishman is renowned for his creativity, dribbling and flair by those who follow Tottenham’s youth teams, but he hasn’t showcased much of that north of the border to date.
Having been introduced at half time last weekend, Moore started for the first time under Röhl in mid-week, but did not grasp this opportunity.
He registered just 39 touches in 65 minutes, completing two out of two dribbles and forcing Hibs goalkeeper Raphael Sallinger into a save, but creating no chances for others, failing to link up very much with Danilo or Chermiti, thereby replaced by Thelo Aasgaard shortly after the hour mark in Edinburgh.
As a result, former Rangers midfielder Andy Halliday asserted “Moore hasn’t shown me anything that tells me that Rangers should be developing a young Spurs player rather than developing their own”.
Thus, given the importance of Sunday’s Glasgow derby, Röhl surely has better options at his disposal.
Djeidi Gassama’s five goals for the club to date will surely earn him a spot in the starting line-up, while both Oliver Antman, who has missed the last two matches due to illness, and the aforementioned Aasgaard have shown more promise since arriving.
Chalkboard
Thus, it would frankly be a surprise if either Chermiti or Moore were lining up to take on Celtic come 2 o’clock on Sunday afternoon, given that Rangers stand a better chance of victory with alternatives spearheading their attack.
Chermiti upgrade: Rohl readying Rangers approach for "dangerous" £1m gem
As Danny Röhl seeks to strengthen his Rangers attacking options, should they sign a £1m rated gem who’s better than Youssef Chermiti?
Former U.S. international Stuart Holden believes Matt Turner’s 2026 World Cup hopes could be in jeopardy after the goalkeeper was left out of Mauricio Pochettino’s USMNT roster for November 2025. Holden pointed to Turner’s lack of competitive minutes as a growing concern, warning it may be damaging his standing within the national team setup.

Turner's omission raises concern
Holden pointed out that Turner, currently with the New England Revolution, faces a challenging situation as he is unlikely to feature in a competitive match until February or March if he remains with the club. The American is currently on loan with the MLS side from Olympique Lyon.
“More concerning, I think for Matt Turner is that there was a recent article in which said that he's training with Crystal Palace currently,” Holden said on the . “A team that he was under contract with before….And it said he was training to get fit and to stay sharp, to be a part of this November window.
“And then the roster comes out and Matt Turner is not on that roster. If he's going to stay through the next season with the New England Revolution, which is part of the the deal, he's not going to play a competitive game now until late. February or March? That's a long. Time for a goalkeeper who, by the way, has not played a lot of minutes over the past two years.”

'I don't know what he can do'
From Holden’s perspective, Turner is presently on the periphery of the USMNT, both in terms of securing the starting goalkeeper role and even earning a spot on the roster.
“So as far as I'm concerned, Matt Turner is not only on the outside looking in at a starting position, he's on the outside looking in at a roster position, which is cause for concern for him,” Holden said. “And I don't know what he can do other than play a great start of the season in the spring to put himself back in that position.”

Turner’s 2025 numbers
Turner returned to the New England Revolution on loan from Olympique Lyonnais in August 2025, a move intended to secure him regular minutes. Since his arrival in August, Turner played 10 matches and allowed 16 goals. He kept two clean sheets for a struggling team that failed to make the playoffs.
