MatériaMais Notícias

Depois do empate sem gols com o Madureira, o Flamengo mostrou apetite fora do comum e atropelou o Nova Iguaçu, por 5 a 0, neste sábado, no Maracanã, pela terceira rodada do Campeonato Carioca. Mesmo com um time misto no primeiro tempo, o Rubro-Negro foi superior e saiu para o intervalo vencendo por 2 a 0, gols de Pedro e Fabrício Bruno. Na segunda etapa, com as entradas de Gabi, Arrascaeta e Everton Ribeiro, ficou ainda mais fácil. O camisa 10 marcou duas vezes, e Pedro fechou a goleada.

Na terça-feira, o Flamengo volta a campo para enfrentar o Bangu, novamente pelo Carioca. A partida será o último teste para ajustar a equipe, já que no fim de semana o rival será o Palmeiras, pela Supercopa do Brasil.

PACIÊNCIA PARA O GOL

O Flamengo começou a partida errando muitos passes, muito pela marcação alta do Nova Iguaçu, que pressionou nos primeiros cinco minutos de jogo. Passada a pressão, o Rubro-Negro colocou a bola no chão e foi ganhando espaço no campo ofensivo. O gol era questão de tempo e aconteceu aos 12 minutos, com Pedro. O atacante recebeu dentro da área, ajeitou o corpo e chutou forte para colocar o time na frente. Matheuzinho também merece destaque. O lateral-direito foi o autor da assistência, após boa jogada individual.

JOGO-TREINO?

Depois de abrir o placar, o Flamengo passou a trocar passes de forma mais tranquila, sem forçar tanto as jogadas. Mesmo assim ofereceu perigo ao Nova Iguaçu, que se limitou apenas a se defender. A qualidade se sobrepôs mesmo em ritmo de treino e o Rubro-Negro ampliou aos 29 minutos com Fabrício Bruno. O zagueiro cabeceou firme após cobrança de falta de Everton Cebolinha.

11 CONTRA 10

O Flamengo abriu 2 a 0 sem qualquer esforço e teve a partida ainda mais facilitada após a expulsão do zagueiro Matheus Alves. O jogador levou o segundo cartão amarelo no final do primeiro tempo deixando o cenário ainda mais animador para uma goleada.

APELOU

No segundo tempo, Vítor Pereira colocou em campo o que tem de melhor no ataque. Entraram Gabi, Arrascaeta e Everton Ribeiro, para delírio da torcida presente no Maracanã. Na primeira trama envolvendo esses jogadores, o Flamengo marcou o terceiro gol. Arrascaeta lançou Matheuzinho na área. O lateral-direito teve o trabalho apenas de escorar para Gabi chutar forte e marcar o primeiro dele no jogo.

MARCA PESSOAL

Cinco minutos depois de marcar, Gabi voltou a balançar a rede do Nova Iguaçu. Dessa vez o camisa 10 usou a cabeça, após cruzamento preciso de Filipe Luís. Com os dois gols marcados, Gabigol chegou a marca de 69 bolas na rede no Maracanã com a camisa do Flamengo. Ao todo, ele soma 136 gols com a camisa rubro-negra.

FÁCIL, EXTREMAMENTE FÁCIL

Completamente entregue no jogo, o Nova Iguaçu foi presa fácil para o Flamengo, que apoiado pelo seu torcedor, não tirou o pé e seguiu buscando gols e mais gols. O time chegou ao 5º com Pedro. Arrascaeta cobrou falta com perfeição na cabeça do atacante. Passeio no Maracanã e empolgação da torcida, que provocou o Real Madrid, que “pode esperar, porque a hora vai chegar”.

The third T20I, the only night match, will begin at 6pm.”We are absolutely thrilled to be hosting India for a T20I series in July in what will be our biggest international attraction at home this year,” Zimbabwe Cricket chairman Tavengwa Mukuhlani said in a press release. “The significance and magnitude of this tour cannot be over-emphasised, especially as it is coming at a time we are working round the clock to re-establish ourselves as a force to reckon with at the highest level of the game.”India last toured Zimbabwe for three ODIs in August 2022, when they won 3-0. Since then, the two sides have met only once across formats, at the T20 World Cup in Australia later that year.Overall, the two teams have played eight T20Is each other, with India winning six of them.Zimbabwe could not qualify for this year’s T20 World Cup even though as many as 20 teams will participate for the first time in the tournament.

Ishaque’s inclusion in the T20I squad leaves no room for experienced left-arm spinner Rajeshwari Gayakwad, while Patil’s call-up has led to Devika Vaidya being dropped.In addition to Patil, Ishaque and Deepti Sharma, India also have a fourth spin option in the form of left-arm fingerspinner Mannat Kashyap, who was part of India’s Under-19 World Cup winning squad earlier this year.

Filippa Angeldal runs the show as Sweden kick off Euro 2025 with professional 1-0 win over Denmark

Sweden kicked off their Euro 2025 campaign with a 1-0 win over Denmark thanks to a brilliantly worked goal by Real Madrid midfielder Filippa Angeldal.

    TELL ME MORE

    The game started at break-neck speed, with Sweden almost netting in the second minute when Johanna Rytting Kaneryd turned her marker and found Filippa Angeldal in the box before her effort was deflected behind for a corner. That sparked a frenetic passage of end-to-end action that was ultimately halted by a lengthy VAR check when the ball struck Madelen Janogy's hand in her own box. The referee correctly stuck with her original decision of no penalty, as the Swedish forward's heels were clipped by the Danish attacker before the ball struck her arm.

    The break took the sting out of the game. While Sweden pushed for an opener, last ditch defending from the Danes meant their opponents could not fashion a clear cut chance on goal. Further delays for refreshments in the sweltering heat added to the disjointed feel. The highlight of the half came from a long range free-kick by Angeldal. Her rasping effort from all of 35 yards was acrobatically tipped over the bar by Maja Ostergaard in the Danish goal.

    It was Angeldal who finally got the breakthrough ten minutes into the second half. A neat one-two on the edge of the Danish box with Kosovare Asllani teed the midfielder up to power a low driving effort into the far corner.

    The Swedes looked certain to double their lead just a few minutes later when Stina Blackstenius' side-footed volley from a half-cleared corner was heroically hooked clear by Frederikke Thogersen on her own goal-line.

    Until the 80th minute, Pernille Harder had cut a slightly dejected figure. Perhaps finally taking matters into her own hands, a thunderous effort from 25 yards out rattled the woodwork. That seemed to jolt her teammates into taking more risks, as Denmark pushed for an equaliser, ultimately to no avail.

    THE MVP

    Filippa Angeldal was involved in all of Sweden's brightest moments, linking up smartly with Rytting Kaneyrd and ghosting into dangerous positions behind Blackstenius. Took her goal beautifully.

  • THE BIG LOSER

    Manchester City fans will have watched this game with a keen eye, sizing up their new manager. While Andree Jeglertz proved he can set up a defensive unit, he did little to impact the course of the game once Denmark fell behind.

كشف مصدر بـ نادي الزمالك، عن وصول لاعب جديد إلى القاهرة، تمهيدًا لإتمام التعاقد معه لتدعيم صفوف فريق الكرة خلال فترة الانتقالات الصيفية الجارية.

وتواصل إدارة نادي الزمالك، برئاسة حسين لبيب، وجون إداود المدير الرياضي، التحرك للحصول على تدعيمات جديدة لفريق الكرة قبل الموسم الجديد.

الزمالك كان قد نجح في التعاقد مع 4 صفقات بشكل رسمي في الميركاتو الصيفي، هم المهدي سليمان حارس مرمى فريق الاتحاد السكندري السابق لمدة موسمين في صفقة انتقال حر، والأنجولي شيكو بانزا لمدة أربعة مواسم قادماً من نادي إستريلا دا أمادورا البرتغالي، والثنائي أحمد شريف وعمرو ناصر من فاركو.

Yamal is enjoying some holiday time after a successful season with Barcelona that brought La Liga, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup trophies. The teenager has flown to Brazil where he visited the NBA House in Sao Paulo, during Game Five of the Finals between Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers. Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot that Yamal sported a bold No. 10 on the back of his top. Yamal has been tipped to take on the iconic shirt number at Barcelona next season and follow in Lionel Messi's footsteps.

Yamal only managed to stay for 10 minutes before being whisked away while still eating his popcorn, as reported by ESPN. The teenager is now hoping to meet his boyhood idol Neymar while in Brazil. The former Barcelona star is back in his homeland with Santos FC, although he has been sidelined recently after testing positive for Covid. Yamal has long made it clear that Neymar was his favourite player when he was growing up and that he saw the Brazilian, and not Messi, as his main idol.

WHAT YAMAL HAS SAID

Yamal was asked about changing squad numbers last month. He told Cope: “At the moment, Ansu has it. I wear number 19 and I really like it; it’s brought me luck. Is there more pressure to play with number 10? When I go to shoot at goal, I’m not going to think about what number I’m wearing.”

Not just Obi: 17-year-old Man Utd ace could be the face of the new stadium

The future of Manchester United was laid bare this week, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and co outlining ambitious plans to build a brand new stadium in the next few years, as part of a total regeneration project in the Old Trafford area.

As revealed on Tuesday, the ownership regime are intent on entering a new permanent home ahead of the 2030/31 campaign, with club CEO Omar Berrada expressing his desire to still have Ruben Amorim in charge for that milestone moment.

Man Utd – new stadium

In the days of identikit stadia, INEOS – and renowned architect Norman Foster – have taken a bold approach with their futuristic design, with The Athletic’s Laurie Whitwell notably quipping that it certainly “looks nothing like Old Trafford”.

Mock-up images of the 100k seater arena have brought a mixed sense of excitement and sadness, it must be said, with there now potentially just a matter of years left in a stadium that has been central to so much success and history since it opened back in 1910.

As legendary manager, Sir Alex Ferguson has stated, however, even though “Old Trafford holds so many special memories”, the Red Devils “must be brave + seize this opportunity to build a new home”.

It is a case of out with the old and in with the new, it would seem, with interest already turning to how the playing squad could look in five years’ time.

The largest sports stadiums in the world as Man Utd plan 100k-seater arena

With Manchester United planning to leave Old Trafford soon, which sports stadiums will their new home look to emulate?

ByStephan Georgiou Mar 11, 2025

If recent evidence is anything to go by, teenage superstar, Chido Obi, could be a central part of the side by that stage…

Man Utd's star of the future, Chido Obi

As noted above, the demolition of Old Trafford will not sit well with everyone. This is a place that has birthed so many heroes, witnessed the likes of Denis Law, Bobby Charlton and George Best. Does new always mean better?

That said, what the new stadium will afford is the chance for another crop of stars to make their mark for the Manchester side, with the hope being that young Obi will be a key figure for the club in the coming years.

Plucked from Arsenal last summer, the Danish youth international arrived with a big reputation having remarkably hit 32 goals in the U18 Premier League last term, with data analyst Ben Mattinson rightly lauding him as a “goal machine” amid his prolific form.

That goalscoring prowess has continued in United’s youth ranks, with the 17-year-old already netting 12 times in just nine U18 appearances, a record that includes seven goals from just three FA Youth Cup outings.

Unsurprisingly, the 6 foot 2 marksman has swiftly been parachuted into Amorim’s first team squad amid the woes of his compatriot, Rasmus Hojlund, with the 22-year-old currently on a run of 20 games without a goal in all competitions.

Following the briefest of cameos away to Tottenham Hotspur, Obi has since enjoyed two far more fruitful outings off the bench against both Everton and Fulham, having come particularly close to netting against the Cottagers, only to be denied by Bernd Leno.

While the former Gunners starlet has not been included in the Europa League squad for the current campaign, the remainder of the Premier League season should provide further opportunities to impress, ahead of becoming a more permanent first-team fixture next term.

Should his rampant goalscoring record be replicated at senior level, Obi – who will be 22 in 2030 – could represent a real bargain for the Red Devils. Hopefully, the same will also be true of another teenage sensation, Jack Fletcher.

The Man Utd teen who could shine in the new stadium

It is never easy to predict the rise of an academy talent, with promotion into the first-team never quite running smooth, even if both Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho have somewhat bucked that trend after moving from Youth Cup stars to FA Cup heroes in recent years.

As such, it is not certain that the current crop in the youth ranks will be able to force their way into Amorim’s plans, although, in the case of Fletcher, there certainly are high hopes for the 17-year-old.

Son of ex-United star, Darren, the promising midfielder was among the raft of youngsters named on the bench for the defeat of Tottenham Hotspur last month, having caught the eye ever since signing from Manchester City, alongside twin brother Tyler, back in 2023.

Much like Obi, Fletcher has dazzled in the Youth Cup, in particular, with the natural left-footer curling home in stunning fashion on his weaker side against Arsenal at the Emirates a few weeks ago, kickstarting that eventual 3-2 victory.

That eye for a goal was also memorably on show in the EFL Trophy earlier in the campaign, with the England youth international bagging a brace against Barnsley, including an outrageous long-range volley to seal the 3-2 win on the night.

Described as a “marvellous” talent by the Daily Mail’s Nathan Salt, Fletcher would certainly be a worthy inclusion in the senior side moving forward, having showcased a versatility to feature in central midfield, or in an advanced number ten berth.

Options in attack are, it must be said, desperately limited following the loss of Amad to injury, and with Marcus Rashford and Antony shipped out on loan.

Jack Fletcher

Bruno Fernandes, meanwhile, is needed in a deeper role, while Christian Eriksen – who is also more of a deep-lying playmaker – is hardly the natural fit for one of those two number ten berths.

As such, it would be no surprise to see Fletcher – who was included in the Europa League ‘A’ list ahead of Obi – handed a senior bow before the season is out.

In The Pipeline

As for the long term, meanwhile, the academy ace – who was dubbed “Cole Palmer in disguise” by teammate Gabriele Biancheri – will hopefully continue his rise at first-team level, with it set to be no surprise if he is one of the stars of the side when life in the new stadium begins in 2030.

    Spurs head into Wednesday's Europa League final in 17th in the Premier League after a season in which they have won just 11 of their 37 games. United, in 16th, are one of the few teams Tottenham have done the league double over, and they also beat them in the Carabao Cup. Now, Micky Hazard has claimed that Spurs will have had a better season than second-placed Arsenal if they manage to end their 17-year trophy drought.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Arsenal have only lost four league games this season, the same amount as champions Liverpool, but will be ending another season without a trophy. They were eliminated from the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain at the semi-final stage, the Carabao Cup by Newcastle, also at the semi-final stage, and by Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup. As a result, Hazard believes that Spurs finally winning a trophy would top anything the Gunners have done, regardless of their league position.

  • WHAT MICKY HAZARD SAID

    Hazard told Freebets, via The Sun: “Are we a better team than Arsenal? No. Not at this moment in time. If we win a trophy and qualify for the Champions League — have we had a better season than Arsenal? Yes. It’s not a question of doubt in my mind.

    “The game is about glory. Would you rather celebrate finishing second and losing the semi-finals, or walking away with a trophy that’ll also get you the Champions League? I know which I’d prefer.”
