Até às 11h30, cerca de 700 associados do Flamengo haviam exercido o direito de voto. A expectativa é de que menos de 4 mil eleitores compareçam à Gávea.
Após votarem, Walter Monteiro, Ricardo Hinrichsen e Marco Aurélio Asseff falaram com o LANCE!, Veja as declarações dos candidatos. O atual presidente Rodolfo Landim não atendeu a imprensa no local até a publicação desta nota.
– Estamos nessa jornada, na festa da democracia rubro-negra, e para disputar essa eleição precisa muita coragem, Na minha chapa não tem ninguém frouxo. Vamos combater o bom combate e vencer nas urnas ao final – afirmou Marco Aurélio Asseff.
– Ser oposição em um clube de futebol é muito diferente de ser oposição em um plano institucional. Afinal de contas, somos todos Flamengo. O que precisa ficar claro é que temos defesas de pautas importantes para reformas institucionais no Flamengo. Queremos ser muito atuantes nos conselhos – avaliou Walter Monteiro.
– Essa festa democrática do Flamengo é uma coisa muito bonita, sempre cordial. É uma eleição onde não existem inimigos, mas adversários pontuais. Esperamos ter uma boa votação e continuar contribuindo para o futuro do Flamengo – afirmou Ricardo Hinrichsen.
O candidato Ricardo Hinrichsen (Chapa Branca) atendeu a imprensa há pouco. Falou sobre esse início de votação e destacou a importância da chapa vencedora não somar 80% ou mais no pleito. #lanceFLA pic.twitter.com/5BSHiArRmT

The spinner didn’t play a single game at the 2014 T20 World Cup or the 2015 50-over World Cup

Aaron Phangiso played a key role in advocating for South Africa’s reserve players to be paid a portion of match fees to ensure that those who do not play many matches on tour, such as himself, are compensated. Phangiso, who was part of South African squads from 2013 to 2018, could have played in 97 international matches but only featured in 37. He did not play a single game at the 2014 T20 World Cup or 2015 50-over World Cup, growing frustrated with both non-selection and non-payment. Speaking at Cricket South Africa’s Social Justice and Nation-Building hearings, he explained how he campaigned for reserve players to be paid as well.”If you were wearing a bib, there was one match allocated to four players. I went and spoke to our team manager and told him I have got a problem with this. I told him that on tour I am one of the few guys that miss out on a whole lot of games and we need to relook at this,” Phangiso said, detailing one chapter of the five he submitted to the SJN.”The team manager saw reason and said, ‘let me speak to the senior guys in the team and see how we can rectify this.’ I had a meeting with two senior players and said this is where I stand. The response that I got was shocking. It just showed that people will always think for themselves. The response I got was, ‘Phangi, you expect that a guy sitting on the bench must get the same amount?’ And I said, ‘Yes, why not? How does that affect you as a player? It’s not coming out of your salary. I got into a lengthy discussion with them and I showed them reason and they did see a bit of reason and they said yes, we will go back and talk to SACA (the South African Cricketers’ Association). Two days later, the guys came back to me and said they spoke to SACA and the best that we can do is to add an extra match fee. Instead of four guys sharing one match fee, they were sharing two. I still don’t think it’s fair. You can play only XI. Are the other guys worth any less? No. That’s how I feel.”ESPNcricinfo has confirmed that South Africa’s match fees per game were increased from 12 to 13 in the 2018 MoU signed between Cricket South Africa and the SACA – which governs, among other things, player salaries, and that this has been increased again, to 14 match fees, to cater for bigger squads during the Covid-19 pandemic. South African players’ match fees are R25,000 (US$1,700) per ODI and R12,500 (US$850) per T20I, which means bench players’ amounts had increased in ODIs from R6250 (US$425) to R12500 (US$850) and T20Is from R3125 (US$213) to R6250 (US$425) in the time Phangiso played to R16,666 (US$1140) and R8333 (US$570) since November 2019.By then, it was too late for Phangiso, who last represented South Africa in 2018 and said in the hearings he felt he should have played more. He narrated numerous incidents of being told to “wait for your time,” as a specialist spinner in a cricketing landscape that favoured quicks. But he expressed confusion about not getting a game at the 2014 World Cup, which was played in Bangladesh, and only playing two of South Africa’s four matches at the 2016 T20 World Cup, in India.Phangiso said he understood he was considered next in line to Imran Tahir but felt there were instances when they could have played together, as they did at the Lions franchise. “I understand Imran was doing well. But in games Imran and I played together we dominated and did well as a combination.” Phangiso said.Related

His biggest disappointment, however, was the 2015 World Cup where he also didn’t play a game despite South Africa qualifying for the knockouts, with a group game to spare. Phangiso revealed he felt isolated on that tour but also suffered some of the aftermath of South Africa’s exit.”I was happy to go to a World Cup again, thinking I would get the chance to contribute, but going into the tournament as the only (black) African player was also tough. I am not sure a lot the public can relate to what it’s like being the only person of your own race,” he said. “You are away from home. We are there for more than a month-and-a-half, all alone, no game time, no nothing. And then to come home and know you have disappointed everyone. People ask if you think you are not good enough to play and what happened? You get into a mental state, I wouldn’t say depression, but it’s exhausting.”Like the other participants at the SJN Hearings, Phangiso also spoke extensively about racial discrimination he endured as a player, especially in the early days of his career. Phangiso started playing in the South African domestic set-up in 2004, when transformation targets demanded all franchises field four players of colour in their XIs and all provincial teams, five.”You would just be there as a number. There were times when one would take the field and not do the discipline one specialises in,” he said, recounting an incident from a match in 2005 when he only bowled five overs out of more than 110 for Northerns.”I was on the field for three days and I didn’t bowl (much) and I actually started crying on the field and my current coach (Mandla Mashimbyi of Northerns) came to me and said: ‘don’t worry, all will be fine, you will get your turn’. Those are the words we tell ourselves: ‘keep pushing the struggle’.”The SJN hearings are due to run for the next two weeks after which transformation ombudsman Advocate Dumisa Ntsebeza, will produce a report and recommendations to CSA.
Mikel Arteta, what have you done to this Arsenal team? 20 odd years ago fans of the club the world over were in agony over the style of football Jose Mourinho brought to Chelsea.
How dare he park the bus? How dare he not attack? How dare his Chelsea side bring the dark arts into English football.
You may well argue that Arsenal have more pizzazz to them than Mourinho’s Blues but their performance against Manchester City on Sunday afternoon was full of plenty of dark arts.
Not long ago this Gunners team had a soft underbelly. They were too easy to rough up and push aside. They are anything but that now.
Arsenal came to the Etihad wanting to put their stamp on the game and they duly did that through Riccardo Calafiori’s screamer and Gabriel’s aggressive header.
However, their plans unravelled in an instant when Leandro Trossard received a second yellow card and was sent off for ‘delaying the restart’ having belted the ball away after showing Bernardo Silva to the ground. Not again Arsenal fans were thinking.
Just weeks on from Declan Rice’s controversial red for something similar, they were on the end of more dubious officiating.
Yes, this was more of a red than Rice’s incident against Brighton but Jeremy Doku just moments earlier had gone unpunished for kicking the ball away. Anyway, let’s not get bogged down by the officiating.
As City and Arsenal battled it out to a 2-2 draw, it was a Herculean effort from a team containing just ten players in the second half.
Arteta’s side stood firm, they stood resolute but unfortunately could not hold on in the dying embers as John Stones bundled the ball home. And breathe. What a contest that was.
Still, those in red and white must be praised for their efforts, notably Gabriel.
Gabriel's performance in numbers
Only a few years ago the Brazilian was noted as a defender who had a mistake in him. True enough. He was rash and capable of a moment of chaos but he has eradicated that from his game and now looks like one of the foremost defenders on the continent. In short, he is among the very elite this game has to offer.
Alongside William Saliba, they are on their way to going down in the history books as one of the best defensive partnerships we’ve seen in Premier League history. They must, of course, win the title first to go down as such.
Gabriel, however, deserves praise right at this very moment. So often the bridesmaid to that man Saliba, he has entered his season with almost something to prove. He has a bruising header of the ball and has shown as such in back-to-back away games.

He scored the winner against Spurs and very nearly scored the winner against City, brushing Kyle Walker aside and powering a header into the net from Bukayo Saka’s corner.
Yes, he may have conceded twice and his positioning could have been better for Erling Haaland’s inevitable goal but he was a titan in the second half, making five clearances and winning four duels.
Calafiori, the scorer of the equaliser wasn’t bad either. Making his first start for the Londoners, he scored a brilliant first-half goal and left the game having completed 94% of his passes, the best figure of any Arsenal starter.
That said, another of the backline deserves equal praise, Jurrien Timber.
Timber's performance in numbers
The Dutchman cruelly missed most of last season having sustained a horrific ACL injury on the opening match of the 2023/24 campaign.
So, to coin an old cliche, he was like a new signing when returning to full fitness in pre-season. How good has he been too? Fielded at left-back in the opening few weeks of 2024/25, he deputised at right-back on Sunday in place of Ben White who did eventually come on in the second half.
It would appear as though White now has a battle on his hands to win back that place as Timber was sublime.
Remarkably, he failed to complete a single pass during the whole match but he stood firm in defence and proved to be a useful asset down the right-hand side too.
As Football.London’s Kaya Kaynak put it, handing the defender an 8/10 rating, he ‘kept Doku quiet for the vast majority of the first half and when Savinho switched to his side in the second period, the Brazilian got no joy’.
Jeremy Doku and Savinho are particularly tricky wingers to deal with but Timber made it look easy, only being dribbled past once, making three tackles and winning four of his seven ground duels according to Sofascore.
He has been brilliant in an inverted left-back role in recent weeks but he may well have just found a home for himself on the right side of defence. He simply has to keep his place for the next league game.

Liverpool thumped West Ham United for five earlier this week to advance to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, but heads swivelled back to Premier League action with haste.
A trip to Molineux is forthcoming. Wolverhampton Wanderers will host Arne Slot’s Reds as they look to claim their first top-flight victory of the campaign. It’s been a disappointing one, so far. But Wolves are a volatile beast on their day and Liverpool will need to be wary of a slip against a side that has been competitive throughout their wretched early run.

The travelling Reds, however, are equipped to defeat the Old Gold and bouncing from such an emphatic victory against West Ham on Wednesday evening. It was a game that saw Slot ring the changes – nine, to be precise – and thus Liverpool are a restive bunch right now, desperate to win once again in the league and keep the pressure on Manchester City, who are a single point ahead in first place.
Let’s have a look at what Slot’s got in store for us this time…
1 GK – Caoimhin Kelleher
Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher.
It’s a funny thing that Liverpool boast arguably the best goalkeeper in the world in Alisson Becker, but that whenever he falls to injury, there’s only a passing sense of alarm before supporters sit back down and exhale a breath of release.
Why? Oh, Caoimhin Kelleher, of course. The Ireland shot-stopper has been described as “the best no.2 in the world” by Jurgen Klopp, who’s probably on to something there.
Slot said that Alisson is almost ready to return, but why take a risk, especially with Champions League football returning next week.
2 RB – Trent Alexander-Arnold
Trent Alexander-Arnold for Liverpool
Concerns around Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract situation rumble on, but you can bet your bottom dollar he’ll be as influential as ever on Saturday afternoon.
The Scouse-born right-back has been a creative genius under Slot’s management, starting to shape into the complete package that Liverpool simply cannot let leave.
3 CB – Ibrahima Konate
Having been rested last time out, Ibrahima Konate will be hoping to return with a bang for Liverpool and continue to put the pressure on Manchester City, who will have played at Newcastle United earlier on Saturday and might, maybe, possibly, drop points.
4 CB – Virgil van Dijk
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk
Liverpool got off to a shaky start against West Ham but ran rampant in the end, though the absence of Virgil van Dijk at the back was keenly felt, with his organisation, command and composure simply irreplaceable.
The skipper needed a breather, though, and will be crucial in nullifying Wolves’ bite at Molineux.
5 LB – Andy Robertson
Andy Robertson and Arne Slot
Kostas Tsimikas’ performance against the Hammers left plenty to be desired, and now Andy Robertson must return to the starting line-up.
He lost the ball 19 times: Slot must drop 6/10 Liverpool man after West Ham
He’s not good enough for a regular starting role…
1 ByAngus Sinclair Sep 26, 2024
The Scotland captain is crisper in possession and a high-class dribbler, with a playmaking game that puts him joint-first – alongside Alexander-Arnold – for the most assists from a defender in Premier League history (59).
6 CM – Ryan Gravenberch
Ryan Gravenberch for Liverpool
Another who was rested ahead of the looming Premier League clash, Ryan Gravenberch has been one of the best players in English football this term, finally taking that prodigious potential and shaping it into something coherent.

Occupying a deeper and more dynamic role than under Klopp’s wing, he’s been brilliant and will be once again tomorrow.
7 CM – Alexis Mac Allister
Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister
Watch the game, and you won’t see Alexis Mac Allister, but watch Mac Allister… oh, watch Mac Allister and you see everything – or was that about someone else?
There’s a ring of truth to the aphorism though, to be sure. Mac Allister makes things tick, reads the game like a scholar, strikes like a serpent and tackles like a titan. He’s everything and more, and he will be too much for Wolves to contain.
8 RW – Mohamed Salah
Mohamed Salah against Ipswich Town
Mohamed Salah was on a three-match goal drought but scored a thumping goal off the bench against the Irons to make it four goals and assists apiece from seven matches this season, not bad going.
Interestingly, he’s only scored once across his past six fixtures against the Old Gold and will want to put that right at Molineux.
9 AM – Dominik Szoboszlai
Dominik Szoboszlai for Liverpool
Dominik Szoboszlai was handed a well-deserved rest for the Carabao Cup action but will return to the number ten spot for this one. The Hungarian needs to add more goals and assists to his game but is so effective for Slot’s side, averaging 2.2 key passes and 5.4 ball recoveries per top-flight outing this year, as per Sofascore.
10 LW – Luis Diaz
Luis Diaz celebrates
Luis Diaz has been a revelation this season. He was ever-present and energetic last year, but this iteration of the Colombian winger brings a potency unseen at Anfield over the past few years.
Diaz is loving life under Slot and it’s reflected through his performances so far, having posted five goals from as many matches in the Premier League. Wolves will be worried about how to contain him.
Teenage allrounder celebrates England Under-19 call-up as Worcestershire stumble

Today, he followed up his first-innings 48 and figures of 2 for 9 in nine overs in Worcestershire’s first innings with another accomplished knock.His efforts, coupled with a second half-century of the game from Ali Orr, enabled Sussex to reach 199 for 6 in their second innings – an overall lead of 250 – despite three wickets apiece for Joe Leach and Josh Baker.Related

Sussex captain Tom Haines tried to work a delivery to leg and was caught off a leading edge by Tom Fell at first slip.New batter Harrison Ward went leg-before to his first delivery from Leach and James Coles departed in the same manner.The fourth wicket pair of Orr and Ollie Carter flourished after lunch and the former completed his second half-century of the game from 96 balls with seven fours and a six.They added 84 before spinner Baker broke the stand with an excellent return catch – one-handed away to his right – to dismiss Carter for 20.Baker then picked up the key wicket of Orr for 57 who checked his shot and presented the spinner with a far more straightforward caught and bowled at 98 for 5.But a second substantial partnership of the innings was put together by Ibrahim and Hudson-Prentice. Their stand was worth 87 in 28 overs before Hudson-Prentice, on 46, gave Baker the charge and was stumped by Ben Cox.Ibrahim had time to complete his fifty off 120 balls with six fours before bad light ended proceedings at 5.30pm.
Presente na lista do Palmeiras para a disputa da Copa São Paulo 2022, o zagueiro Ruan Santos, de 18 anos, vive a expectativa de disputar sua primeira Copinha com a camisa do Verdão e buscar o título inédito para a galeria do clube.
Filho do ex-jogador Narciso, o jovem também pode superar uma marca familiar dentro da competição. Em 2013, seu pai foi o treinador responsável por levar o Palmeiras às semifinais do torneio, melhor colocação do clube na última década. Apesar de toda a infraestrutura da base palestrina, apenas o Alviverde de Gabriel Jesus, em 2015, repetiu o desempenho desde então.
Em entrevista EXCLUSIVA ao NOSSO PALESTRA, Ruan afirmou a motivação pessoal e demostrou felicidade ao relembrar o feito do seu pai. Aos olhos do jovem, a conquista da Copinha seria a afirmação da força da base do clube.

– Fico feliz pelo meu pai ter atingido até aqui a melhor campanha do Palmeiras na Copa São Paulo. Mas claro que quero ultrapassar este feito dele. A Copinha é a maior competição nacional de base do país e a sua conquista é de extrema relevância para a equipe campeã. Queremos superar estas marcas e enfim fazermos com que o clube conquiste o título da competição. Seria para carimbar com chave de ouro a força da base palmeirense – contou o zagueiro.
Já treinando na Academia de Futebol, em São Paulo, ao lado de todo grupo selecionado para representaras o Palmeiras no torneio, o defensor destacou a confiança e o foco pelo objetivo de quebrar o tabu alviverde na competição de maior vitrine para as categorias de base do futebol brasileiro.
– Estamos bastante focados nos nossos objetivos. Sabemos que é a maior competição de base do Brasil e a visibilidade que ela dá a cada atleta. Após a conquista do Paulista Sub-20 (em dezembro), a nossa cabeça se voltou totalmente à Copinha e agora o foco é totalmente este – analisou ao NP.
Campeão do Paulistão Sub-20 na última semana, depois de bater o Mirassol no Allianz Parque e novamente no interior paulista, a equipe comandada por Paulo Victor Gomes chega motivada para fazer história na competição. Além do ritmo de jogo, o entrosamento também pode ser um trunfo para o grupo. Ao todo, desde a chegada do comandante, em outubro, o time está invicto, seja no Paulista ou representando o time profissional no Brasileirão, com 14 jogos, nove vitórias, cinco empates, 29 gols marcados e apenas quatro tentos sofridos.
– Com o título, chegamos bem confiantes para a disputa da Copa São Paulo. Além disso, somos um grupo que atua junto há um bom tempo, cada atleta conhece as características de seus companheiros. Isso é bom, mostra que o elenco está totalmente entrosado e focado no mesmo objetivo. Além disso, pelo fato de termos chegado à final e conquistado o Paulista, nosso ritmo de jogo não foi interferido neste pouco tempo que ficamos sem atuar – finalizou Ruan.
No Palmeiras desde 2017, após ser descoberto na Portuguesa Santista, o defensor tem idade para mais duas temporadas como jogador de categorias de base, com contrato até setembro de 2023 e multa rescisória milionária, de 80 milhões de euros – R$ 530 milhões, na cotação atual. Titular no início da atual temporada, mas perdendo espaço ao longo do ano, o atleta soma 19 jogos na categoria Sub-20 em 2021, com um gol e duas assistências.
Dentro do elenco palestrino na competição, o jovem vai disputar vaga na defesa com Michel, Naves e Lucas Freitas, os principais zagueiros inscritos. Além dos quatro nomes, a comissão técnica de Paulo Victor Gomes levou os defensores Jhow e Talisca para a disputa do certame nacional.
O Palmeiras inicia a trajetória rumo ao título da Copinha no dia 05 de janeiro (quarta-feira), às 15h15 (de Brasília), no Estádio Distrital do Inamar, em Diadema-SP. A equipe volta aos gramados no sábado (08) e na terça-feira (11), diante de Real Ariquemes e Água Santa, respectivamente.
High-flying Chelsea continued their impressive start to life under new boss Enzo Maresca by seeing off a spirited Gent side in Conference League action on Thursday evening, with the much-changed hosts running out 4-2 winners at Stamford Bridge.
Fresh from having seen off Brighton and Hove Albion by the same scoreline on Saturday afternoon, the west Londoners showcased the depth of their firepower to deliver once again last night, despite the absence of the likes of Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and, of course, Cole Palmer.
Leaving the Englishman out of the squad for the first stage of this competition may have been a bold call, although Maresca appears to have more than enough quality at his disposal to make up for it, with both Pedro Neto and Christopher Nkunku notably getting on the scoresheet – the latter man now boasting seven goals in total so far this season.
The night also saw Renato Veiga and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall register their first goals for the club against the Belgian visitors, with the pair no doubt making a strong statement amid the desire to force their way into the manager’s Premier League XI.
Chelsea's best performers vs Gent
The man who kicked things off with a well-taken header at the back post, summer signing Veiga made his presence felt in that inverted left-back berth, notably racking up four key passes, while also completing 100% of his attempted dribbles, as per Sofascore.
The 21-year-old has been restricted to just one top-flight start so far this season, although on the evidence of his most recent performance, he could well represent a firm threat to Marc Cucurella on the left flank moving forward.
Enzo Fernandez is another who may also soon be fearing for his place in the midfield ranks, if Dewsbury-Hall’s form is anything to go by, with the £30m addition from Leicester City having been masterful in the centre of the park.
Dewsbury-Hall
Not only did he react quickly to slot home late on, but the playmaker was also integral to everything that was good about the hosts, successfully completing all three of his dribble attempts and winning six of his eight ground duels.
The same cannot be said of the man next to him, however, with midfield colleague Cesare Casadei failing his big audition on what was a sticky outing for the promising Italian.
Casadei's game in numbers vs Gent
The 21-year-old – who played alongside Dewsbury-Hall during a loan spell at Leicester in the first half of last season – had looked set to depart Stamford Bridge over the summer, albeit with the youngster revealing that he opted against sealing another temporary exit, following discussions with his manager.
While the presence of Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia has ensured that game time in the league will be hard to come by, cup competitions will no doubt provide the former Inter Milan ace some much-needed minutes, having notably started in the 5-0 thrashing of League Two side Barrow last week.
