Newcastle team news vs Crystal Palace

Chris Waugh has now shared a double Newcastle United injury boost before they play Crystal Palace at home in the Premier League tonight.

The Lowdown: One more win?

With the St. James’ Park outfit currently on 37 points in the top-flight table, one more win would take them to 40, and so should all but guarantee their safety in the division for another season.

That could well come in front of the Toon Army against the Eagles, who have just come off the back of a tiring 2-0 loss against Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley Stadium over the weekend.

The Latest: Team news

Sharing some pre-match news on Twitter, The Athletic journalist Waugh relayed some comments made by Eddie Howe in his pre-game press conference ahead of the match.

The manager revealed that both Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson are ‘still on track’ in terms of their recoveries from their respective injuries, and added that they will ‘hopefully play’ again this season, although neither of the pair will return tonight.

The Verdict: Big boost

Of course, the fact that Howe could recall two of his key players for the rest of the run-in is no doubt a big boost for the North East club, even despite missing the clash with the Eagles.

Trippier is currently ranking as their best performer in the Premier League so far this term, while Wilson is still their top scorer with six goals, despite a long spell out with injury (WhoScored).

Nonetheless, should they not be able to get the result that they want against CPFC, both players will be key in ensuring that they get enough points on the board to stay up.

Copete treina de forma separada no Santos e deve ficar fora da rodada

MatériaMais Notícias

Ainda que o técnico Jair Ventura tenha a intenção de não poupar jogadores para a partida diante do Santo André, pelo menos uma peça ele será forçado a abrir mão com o objetivo de não perdê-lo para a estreia da Libertadores. Trata-se do atacante Copete, que não participou de alguns treinamentos durante a última semana por conta de um desconforto na coxa direita, e repetiu a dose no treinamento desta tarde.

O colombiano não entrou em campo em duas das últimas quatro atividades do Peixe e, neste sábado, dia em que foi encerrada a preparação para a partida contra o Santo André, o jogador chegou a ir para o gramado, mas não treinou com o time, o que indica que não deve mesmo estar entre os relacionados para o duelo.

Para o seu lugar, a opção de Jair deve ser por utilizar o atacante Arthur Gomes, que vem dando bons resultados quando acionado a entrar, principalmente quando atua com Eduardo Sasha no ataque, pois conseguem trocar de lado com facilidade e eficiência.

A intenção da comissão técnica é deixar Copete pronto para enfrentar o Real Garcilaso-PER, na próxima quinta-feira, na estreia do Peixe pela Copa Libertadores. O restante dos titulares treinou sem restrições e não há mais problemas para o treinador, somente Bruno Henrique, ainda se recuperando de lesão no olho, e Victor Ferraz, com luxação no ombro direito, estarão fora da rodada.

Cruzeiro inicia preparação para o clássico contra Atlético-MG

MatériaMais Notícias

Após estrear na Copa Libertadores, o elenco do Cruzeiro voltou a se apresentar na Toca da Raposa II. Nesta quinta-feira, a equipe celeste começou a treinar mirando o confronto com o Galo, domingo, pelo Campeonato Mineiro.

As novidades ficaram por conta das participações de Sassá, que não jogava desde setembro do ano passado,e Cacá, que aos 18 anos, se juntou ao time profissional pela primeira vez.

Vale lembrar que o último jogo de Sassá foi contra a Chapecoense. Na ocasião, o time celeste venceu por 2 a 1, na Arena Condá. Após essa partida, o atacante ficou cerca de um mês sem treinar, alegando dores no joelho direito. O jogadorpassou por uma artroscopia para corrigir a lesão na cartilagem e desde então, ele tem se recuperado nas dependências do clube.

Sassá treinou com bola junto com seus companheiros mas o Cruzeiro afirmou que o atacante ainda está em fase de transição. A chance do jogador ser relacionado para o clássico de domingo, diante do Galo é quase nula.

O zagueiro Cacá, do Sub-20, foi observado pelo técnico Mano Menezes. A Raposa não confirmou a promoção do jovem. Após se destacar na Libertadores da categoria, o atleta pode receber oportunidades durante as atividades táticas para mostrar o futebol.

O desfalque da equipe celeste foi o goleiro Fábio. O arqueiro,que ficou fora do jogo contra o Racing, devido à morte do pai, foi poupado das atividades no gramado e fez trabalhos internos.

Apesar disso, é bem provável que ele seja escalado como titular contra o Atlético-MG, neste domingo, às 11h (de Brasília), pela nona rodada do Campeonato Mineiro. Além do goleiro, o zagueiro Manoel também ficou na academia.

Will Nottingham Forest keep Djed Spence?

Nottingham Forest and Djed Spence have so far shared a prosperous season in the Championship.

What’s the story?

21-year-old Spence, who has been described as “perfect” by Journalist Alan Rzepa, has attracted the attention of north London giants Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal, with the latter said to have made their interest known.

Goal have reported that the Gunners want to sign the England U21 starlet, with positive endorsement from Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli fuelling the fire further.

Indeed, Football.London published only this week that the club have been given a further reason to pursue his services with him recently scooping up three Championship awards.

Forest will be gutted

The £4.4k-per-week gem has been a revelation this term and as such, it would be somewhat of a disaster if the flying full-back exited the club for good this summer.

A match against one of his suitors in Arsenal was the perfect indication of his qualities, as he was awarded man of the match for his efforts in keeping Martinelli quiet, as the Reds impressively knocked Arteta’s side out to progress.

According to The Athletic, Spence left a positive impact on the young Brazilian.

When asked about the toughest individual opponent he has faced, Martinelli said: “The guy from Nottingham Forest, Djed Spence, who I played against in the FA Cup.

“He is strong, good on the ball, calm and quick. I was surprised; he is a really good player.”

The emphatic displays from Spence this season have resulted in a bit of a catch-twenty-two for Nottingham Forest.

On one hand, his displays are helping to push the Reds towards potential promotion to the Premier League.

On the other hand, his displays have put him on the radar of the Premier League’s elite, which in turn will make it more difficult for Steve Cooper’s side to sign the 21-year-old permanently.

If Forest fail to gain promotion to the top-flight, then they may fail to retain Spence’s services, an eventuality that will be seen as a huge disappointment and one that leaves supporters gutted.

Upon his loan expiry date, his return to Middlesborough will no doubt be a short one before he is inevitably sold to a Premier League outfit.

شاكيري بعد الفوز على الكاميرون: يمكننا أن نفاجيء الجميع في كأس العالم

أعرب شيردان شاكيري لاعب منتخب سويسرا الأول لكرة القدم، عن سعادته بالفوز الذي حققه على الكاميرون، في الجولة الأولى من المجموعة الثامنة ببطولة كأس العالم قطر 2022.

شاكيري صنع هدف سويسرا الوحيد، والذي سجله مهاجم موناكو، إمبولو ذو الأصول الكاميرونية، وقرر عدم الاحتفال احترامًا لبلده الأم، وحصل شيردان على جائزة أفضل لاعب في المباراة.

وقال شاكيري في تصريحات لشبكة “بي إن سبورتس” القطرية بعد المباراة: “لقد حققنا فوزًا مهما للغاية في البداية، واستحقينا الـ3 نقاط في بداية مشوارنا، نحن نلعب منذ فترة طويلة مع بعضنا البعض ولدينا لاعبين أصحاب خبرة، وحققنا تقدم وتطوير كبير ونسير على الطريق الصحيح، ومن الممكن أن نفاجئ الجميع في هذه البطولة”.

وأضاف: “كان علينا أن نُظهِر قوتنا في المبارة، وبالفعل قمنا بذلك، وسجل إمبولو هدفًا خاصًا رغم أنه في منتخب يحمل له الكثير من الحب (الكاميرون)، إلا أنه أثبت بأنه محترفًا، وهو لاعب مهم للغاية بالنسبة لنا، وسعيد بتواجده وباستطاعته تسجيل أهداف أخرى في المباريات القادمة”.

واختتم: “النقاط التي حققناها مهمة للغاية، والآن علينا التركيز في المباراة القادمة ومواصلة العمل من الغد، نحن سنقاتل في كل لحظة كما وعدنا الجمهور السويسري قبل البطولة”.

Tasmania suffered only one setback after they were sent in by Queensland on a day severely affected by rain at the Gabba. The Tigers were 1 for 33 after 17.4 overs when play was called off, with the watchful Ed Cowan on 12 and Alex Doolan on 10.Steven Cazzulino (11) was the one casualty for the visitors after he was caught behind by Chris Hartley off Chris Swan. Hartley is standing in as captain for James Hopes, who is headed to India for the one-day international series, and would have hoped for some more success on the greentop after winning the toss.

Kuwait, Germany go top with wins

A round-up of the third round of games from the ICC World Cricket League Division Eight tournament in Kuwait

Liam Brickhill09-Nov-2010

The victorious Zambians celebrate another wicket against Gibraltar•International Cricket Council

Kuwait eased to their third resounding victory of the Division Eight tournament, crushing Bhutan by eight wickets in a match that lasted all of 20.4 overs. Kuwait’s opening bowlers, right-handed Saad Khalid and left-armer Mohammad Murad, combined to skittle Bhutan for just 31 as no batsman made it to double figures and extras, with 10, provided the bulk of the scoring. Kuwait lost both openers in their chase, but the score had already reached 20 by the time they departed, and Abid Chaudry and Mohammad Akhudzada had little trouble knocking off the remaining runs in time for an early lunch.Murad and Khalid had dished out the same treatment to Suriname in their opening match of the tournament, and are now sitting comfortably at the top of the wicket-takers’ tables with 22 victims between them. Their pace proved simply too much for Bhutan’s inexperienced batsmen as eight dismissals were either bowled or lbw. With Kuwait emerging as definite contenders to move up to Division Seven and beyond, Khalid and Murad – who, at 20, is the older of the two – will be vital to their future development.”Today was another easy match for us just like the first day of the tournament against Suriname,” said Khalid, who was Man of the Match for the second time this tournament. “My bowling just went right for me today, I’m not a selfish player I’m in it for the team and the fact I took so many wickets today is pleasing. We’ve only really been challenged by Vanuatu so I’m looking forward to our play-off game where hopefully we can be challenged a bit more.”Vanuatu scrapped to a four-wicket win over Suriname at the Doha Entertainment City Ground. Aby John’s medium pace did the bulk of the damage to Suriname’s top order after they had opted to bat first, his third wicket reducing them to 107 for 6. There was no lower-order fightback and Suriname crumbled for 139 in the 48th over.Vanuatu didn’t have it all their own way in their chase, however, as Suriname captain Shazam Ramjohn opened the bowling with Vishaul Singh’s offspin and he responded with the early dismissals of both Lenica Natapei and Andrew Mansale. After Carlton Baker broke a 36-run third-wicket stand by bowling Jonathon Dunn, and opener Damian Smith was run out for 46, Vanuatu were 81 for 4 and tottering uneasily. But Simpson Obed and Patrick Matautaava responded admirably, and when both fell to Singh victory was almost in Vanuatu’s grasp. It was left to Frederick Timakata and wicketkeeper Trevor Langa to finish the job, and Vanuatu now sit comfortably in second position behind Kuwait in Group A.”It’s always nice to come away with a victory and the team performed better today in the field and Patrick Matautaava was once again strong with bat and ball which is a positive thing,” said Vanuatu coach Mark Coles. “We can’t be complacent though, we face Germany on Thursday and they’ve proved to be very strong with the bat so we need make sure we keep out bowling tight and our fielding on target.”Suriname coach Kumar Rampat was disappointed but the loss but looked upon the positives. “We may not have won any of our group matches but as a team we have certainly improved since the first game of the tournament. We bowled well today and took some good catches,” he said. “We now need to focus on the play-offs on Thursday, which is something we very much want to do.”Ehsan Latif opened the bowling for Germany before Kashif Haider took centre stage•International Cricket Council

Germany’s batsmen, led by Milan Fernando and Asif Khan, had been the team’s strongest weapon in the tournament so far, but against Bahamas at the Unity Ground it was the turn of a bowler to shine. After solid contributions from both Fernando and Khan, and a half-century for Rishi Pillai, had set up Germany’s total of 258 Bahamas’ opening pair of Gregory and Marc Taylor responded with an opening stand that had passed 80 in the 16th over.But after Pillai removed the younger Taylor for 45, Kashif Haider, Germany’s Pakistan-born legspinner, was brought on as third change and soon had a devastating impact. He scythed through the batting line-up, dismissing Nos. 5, 6 and 7 for ducks and ended the innings by having Julio Jemison stumped to finish with the remarkable figures of 8 for 25. The victory cemented Germany’s position at the top of Group B, and they increasingly appear to be the only team capable of challenging Kuwait after the group stages.”I haven’t been taking too many wickets lately and to walk away with eight today and help my team to its third win is a great feeling,” said Haider. “I just hope our good form continues ahead of Thursday’s game against Vanuatu so that we can go onto qualify for Division 7 next year.”Christian Rocca’s 99 eased the pain of Gibraltar’s defeat to Germany on Sunday, and as the third round of matches brought a third defeat it was the turn of Kieron Ferrary to give Gibraltar’s innings some honour as they slipped to a 91-run defeat to Zambia at the Hubara Ground. The 21-year-old Ferrary went to the crease as early as the 12th over as Gladson Kandela once again made early inroads into the top order, and reached a fluent hundred before falling in the final over for 105. Kandela picked up his fourth wicket of the match in the same over, dismissing Matthew Hunter second ball, to finish with 4 for 25.Zambia’s win had been set up by a solid performance from their batsmen, openers Allan Nsensha and Ashraf Lulat putting 166 in just over 30 overs. After they were nipped out by offspinner Mark Bacarese, the middle order kept up the tempo as each batsman managed to score at a-run-a-ball or better to finish with a match-winning total of 286 for 6.”It’s obviously disappointing to have not won any of our games here in Kuwait but we’ve got to remain positive and make sure we finish on a positive note,” said Gibraltar captain Rocca. “I was particularly pleased with the performance of Kieron Ferrary today, he showed us he is definitely one for the future of Gibraltar cricket.”Tomorrow is a rest day with play resuming on Thursday with the play-offs.
