أصدرت رابطة الدوري الإسباني أول رد فعل على بيان نادي ريال مدريد ضد التحكيم، بعد ما حدث في مواجهة إسبانيول وعدم طرد كارلوس ألبيرتو.
ريال مدريد أصدر بيانًا الأسبوع الماضي، هاجم من خلاله رابطة التحكيم، وأكد على أنها تفتقد للنزاهة، ووجهت الرسالة إلى الاتحاد الإسباني لكرة القدم.
وحسب ما أفادت إذاعة “كوبيه” الإسبانية، أن رابطة الدوري الإسباني برئاسة خافيير تيباس، تستنكر بيان ريال مدريد بسبب ذلك البيان ضد الحكام.

وأشارت التقارير إلى أن ذلك، كان بناء على طلب بقية أندية الدوري الإسباني، التي هاجمت ريال مدريد بشأن البيان الذي اعتبرته الأندية ضد كرة القدم الإسبانية.
وقدمت رابطة الليجا، شكوى إلى اللجنة التأديبية بالاتحاد الإسباني لكرة القدم، بعدما أكد خافيير تيباس رئيس الرابطة في وقت سابق أنه سيدين ما فعله ريال مدريد بالبيان، وكذلك التقارير التي تم بثها عبر تلفزيون النادي الرسمي.
وبالتالي، سيتم فتح تحقيق بشأن البيان الصادر من ريال مدريد ورد رابطة الدوري الإسباني وكذلك الأندية بالليجا، وقد ينتهي الأمر بعقوبة النادي الملكي.

No trabalho de olho no Tricolor Gaúcho, que luta contra o rebaixamento, o técnico separou os atletas de linha em quatro times para dois treinos simultâneos. Enquanto duas faziam uma atividade de posse de bola, com objetivo de acertar os passes entre algumas estacas, as outras disputavam um jogo em campo reduzido com minigols em cada lado como alvos.

The confusion was because the umpires wanted to ensure Irfan’s injury was genuine
ESPNcricinfo staff22-Jun-2021
Mohammad Irfan finished with 1 for 21 before going down with cramps•Pakistan Super League
A strange passage of play briefly left the Peshawar Zalmi fielding with ten men during the second PSL 2021 eliminator against the Islamabad United on Tuesday, after their pacer Mohammad Irfan left the field because of an injury.Haider Ali, the substitute sent out by the Zalmi, was asked to leave the field by the umpires, who were apparently not convinced that Irfan was injured, leaving Zalmi down by a man.In the 11th over of the United innings, Irfan, who was bowling the final over of his spell, went down after his penultimate delivery. Following a delay, he got back up to complete the over, but fell to the ground again. During the 12th over, Irfan was taken outside the boundary for treatment, with Ali coming on to replace him.However, at the end of the 12th over, bowled by Amad Butt, Aleem Dar, the onfield umpire, signalled that Ali should not be allowed to field, causing another lengthy delay.After a break in play, with Irfan still receiving treatment, Ali also stepped out of the field, meaning the Zalmi had to bowl the 14th and 15th overs without Irfan or a substitute fielder.Eventually, at the start of the 16th over, after a conversation between Dar, the Zalmi captain Wahab Riaz, and Shoaib Malik, also of the Zalmi, the team was allowed to bring in another substitute, Khalid Usman taking the field.ESPNcricinfo understands that the delay was caused because the umpires wanted to ensure Irfan’s injury was genuine, and when they got a confirmation of the same from the paramedics at the ground, they allowed the substitution.During a timeout in United’s innings, Irfan’s team-mate Butt suggested that the pacer’s injury was only a case of cramps.
Matthew Wade could stand in for the injured Aaron Finch during the series in Bangladesh
Andrew McGlashan28-Jul-2021Alex Carey’s calm leadership was lauded by Australia coach Justin Langer after the 2-1 ODI series win over West Indies but he appears unlikely to retain the captaincy for the T20I series against Bangladesh.Australia need to decide on a stand-in for the injured Aaron Finch who missed the ODIs in the Caribbean and was then ruled out of the Bangladesh leg due to a knee problem that is likely to require surgery.Carey is much less secure of his place in the T20I set-up – he made 22 runs in three innings against West Indies after being recalled to the middle order – and it could be that Matthew Wade takes the captaincy against Bangladesh having previously stepped in for Finch against India last year.Australia fly to Dhaka on a charter flight on Wednesday and a final decision will be taken over the next few days by Langer in consultation with selectors Trevor Hohns and George Bailey.Related

“We’ll work through that,” Langer said. “We want to be consistent with those decisions, hopefully we’ve shown over a period now that we’re very consistent with how we’re selecting teams and selecting leaders, and no doubt that, that’ll be shown again when we get to the T20s in Bangladesh.”However, Carey’s first stint in the role – having lost his position as shared vice-captaincy last year – will have done his credentials no harm when future captains are being assessed. Finch has previously said he would like to continue through to the 2023 ODI World Cup in India.”I thought Alex’s captaincy was outstanding,” Langer said. “He’s so calm and you can see it in his face when he bats. We’ve seen it through his career, but we saw it in that hundred he scored with Glenn Maxwell in England last year, to win when we were really under pressure, and even the way that he batted last night he just seemed so calm under pressure.”As we know he’s the ultimate professional, so therefore he’s easy to work with as a captain because you know that he will tick every box. He’ll make sure that all his due diligence is done on the opposition and he’ll know how our players are travelling. So he was great to work with, I loved his calmness, loved his composure, I love what he brings on and off the field so he did a really really good job. He’s very impressive in that role.”Alex Carey played key hands with the bat•AFP
Carey could get another chance in the T20I middle order against Bangladesh with Australia’s batting resources stretched due to Finch’s absence and doubts over Ben McDermott after he injured his ankle diving into a boundary board in the second ODI. Due to travel difficulties and biosecure arrangements, replacements can’t be called up.Moises Henriques had a tough time with the bat in the West Indies but there is limited room for manoeuvre given both the travelling replacements, the uncapped Nathan Ellis and Tanveer Sangha, only provide bowling cover. Dan Christian and Ashton Turner did not feature in the last T20I against West Indies and will come back into the frame. With five matches in the space of seven days it is likely the fast bowlers will be rotated.Australia will be looking to improve on their 4-1 loss against West Indies which included throwing away a winning position in the opening game and then they could not get on the board until the series was gone.Mitchell Marsh was the biggest success in that series with 219 runs and eight wickets to push himself firmly into contention for the T20 World Cup even when the absent players are available again.”Certainly Mitch Marsh has put his hand up. That No. 3 position is really interesting depending on how Steve Smith comes up with his elbow injury,” Langer said. “That adds real depth to our play. I also thought the way Ashton Agar batted yesterday, [he] is certainly up there as a spin bowler and he’s like a leopard in the field. I also liked the fact that he, Matthew Wade, and Alex Carey, the left handers in the middle…we thought moving into the World Cup we might be a bit short on left-hand batsman. But the way those guys have stood up is a huge bonus for us moving forward.”
كشف جناح الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي برشلونة، لامين يامال، عن تفكيره تجاه مستقبله مع اقتراب عقده على الانتهاء مع العملاق الكتالوني.
وينتهي عقد يامال مع برشلونة في 30 يونيو 2026، وبالتالي، دخوله الصيف المقبل دون التوقيع يعني أنها الفرصة الأخيرة لبيعه والاستفادة من الأموال التي سيدفعها أي نادٍ خارجي.
وضع العقد جعل العديد من الأندية الكبرى تراقب موقف اللاعب مع برشلونة خاصة باريس سان جيرمان مع عروض أخرى ذكرها رئيس النادي، خوان لابورتا، ولكن يامال كان دائم رفضها.

وأجرى يامال حوارًا مع صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الكتالونية، وقال: “لا اعتقد أن أحد يشك في ولائي كلاعب لنادي برشلونة، وما مقدار حبي لهذا النادي، لقد قلت ذلك منذ ظهوري الأول”.
وتابع: “اعتقد أن أمر العقد سيتم حله في النهاية، إذا أراد الطرفان حدوث شيء ما، فسيحدث، لكن لا أعتقد أن أحدًا يستطيع أن يشكك فيما أشعر به تجاه برشلونة”.
وأضاف: “أقدر الجميع في برشلونة، العاملين، الجماهير، زملائي بالفريق، كل شيء مثالي بالنسبة لي في النادي، لقد كنت سعيدًا للغاية منذ تصعيدي للفريق الأول”.
وعن إمكانية تفعيل شرط التمديد حتى 2030 كما ينص العقد: “لا أريد الخوض في هذا الأمر، لا يزال هناك طريقًا طويلًا لنقطعه، أركز في مباريات الموسم الحالي وهو الأهم، وعندما يبدأ القادم، سيتم حل الأمر”.
وعن العروض الخارجية مثل باريس سان جيرمان: “لم أتلق أية عروض، ولكن إذا تلقى أي شخص مقرب لي أي عرض، فلن يخبرني حتى، لأنني مرتبط بعقد ومن غير الممكن بالنسبة لي الرحيل إلى أي نادٍ آخر”.
وبسؤاله “هل يرى مسيرته كلها في برشلونة؟”: “أنا مدين بكل شيء لهذا النادي، فهو المكان الذي تطورت فيه، لقد كنت في لا ماسيا منذ الثانية عشر”.
واستمر: “إذا قال وكيلي (خورخي مينديز) بأنني رقم 1 في برشلونة وسأبقى، إذن سأفعل وآمل أن يحدث ذلك”.
It’s that time of year again: EA Sports has created the latest instalment of its EA FC videogame series (we’re still calling it FIFA), with FC 25 set to hit the shelves this week.
The player ratings are a source of anticipation each year, and this one is no different – with EA’s boffins determining which players are armed with the best skills on the game.
Below is how this year’s ratings lists across the men’s and women’s games look, as we go into the top 11 players in a bit more detail.

Two-time Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas has suffered a slight downgrade this year, with her overall rating going down by 1. Putellas’ rating has been in the 90s ever since the year of her first crowning as women’s football’s best player, with the second coming despite an ACL injury.

Jude Bellingham’s stellar 2023/24 campaign for club and country has catapulted him into the highest echelons of EA’s virtual stars.
An increase from his 86-rated card last term, most notably with his Shooting average rocketing from 75 to 87, is perhaps just reward for his exceptional season in front of goal during his debut year for Real Madrid.

Kevin De Bruyne has yet to show signs of ageing as far as his footballing ability is concerned. The Belgian may have ended the most recent campaign on a flat note at Euro 2024 and earned just the one domestic trophy with Manchester City, but his excellence shone through, even when battling his way through persistent injury struggles.
As the highest-rated CM on the game, De Bruyne’s place among the sport’s elite is assured, with an unrivalled Passing average of 94 setting him apart from his peers.

Not even an ACL injury could deter Sam Kerr from gaining a 90+ rating – and remaining the WSL’s top player in the process.
Her injury was a cruel blow to the Australian, who had not long battled back to feature in her home World Cup (and threaten to break England hearts in the process).
She is also the best female centre-forward on the game on rating alone, although gaining in-forms this year may rest on how Kerr performs upon her long-awaited return under Sonia Bompastor at Chelsea.

Vinicius Junior’s heroics in the Champions League final alone heralded calls for the Brazilian to claim the Ballon d’Or later this year. Given the year that he had for Real Madrid, winning the Champions League and La Liga, he has to be in the running.
But should he fall short of that particular individual award, he can take solace from an impressive 90-rated card on EA FC. We can expect Vini to terrorise plenty of defences online over the coming months.

Still the best player in women’s football, Aitana Bonmati continues to reign supreme in the gaming world, too.
Alongside many of her fellow Spanish Barcelona teammates, an elusive Olympic gold prevented Bonmati from achieving the perfect season, which followed Spain’s World Cup triumph in Sydney.
It is difficult to find a fault in the 91-rated virtual version of the 26-year-old, who looks set to remain at the summit of the game for a long while yet.

There are few remaining superlatives to describe Erling Haaland – his record speaks for itself. And just like last year, he is joint-top of the men’s player ratings on EA FC, having been the cover star of FC 24.
With his finishing rated at a lethal 96, no current active player can top the Norwegian’s accuracy in front of goal – though Gerd Muller and Ronaldo Nazario’s Ultimate Team icons can boast finishing ratings of 97.

No one will be surprised to find Kylian Mbappe at the top of the EA FC player ratings once again. Now at Real Madrid, the Frenchman is set to take his levels of super-stardom to new heights, with a 16th Champions League crown in Los Blancos’ sights.
Rated 91 for a second season running, Mbappe is poised to not only be one of the most anticipated players to use this year, but given his summer move to Spain, who knows what kind of special cards await in Ultimate Team this term?

O zagueiro do Sub-17 do Palmeiras, Gabriel Vareta, assinou seu primeiro contrato profissional com o clube nessa semana. Com passagens pelas Seleções de base do Brasil, o defensor acertou vínculo de três anos – até o final de 2024 – com multa rescisória de 80 milhões de euros (cerca de 503 milhões de reais na cotação atual).
– Foi um dos dias mais felizes da minha vida. Defendo o Palmeiras há tanto tempo e sempre sonhei com esse momento. Isso é fruto de muito trabalho e dedicação ao clube que eu tenho um carinho enorme. Evolui muito como atleta e pessoa aqui dentro e busco crescer mais a cada dia. Agora é seguir trabalhando, pois através disso as conquistas virão – disse o atleta de 16 anos.

Visto como uma das grandes promessas do Palmeiras, Vareta atua nas categorias Sub-17 e Sub-20 do clube. No Palmeiras desde 2014, após passagem pelo futsal da Portuguesa, o defensor passou a jogar pelo campo na categoria Sub-11 do Verdão. Desde então, conquistou os Campeonatos Paulistas Sub-11, Sub-13, Sub-15 e Sub-20, em 2016, 2018, 2019 e 2020, respectivamente.
Em 2020, o zagueiro acumulou cinco convocações para a Seleção Brasileira, sendo uma para a Sub-15 e quatro pela Sub-17. Mesmo com apenas 15 anos, foi campeão do Paulista Sub-20 da última temporada como titular, atuando também em jogos da Copa do Brasil.
Atualmente efetivado no Sub-17, Vareta e o Palmeiras retornam a campo neste sábado (11), às 15h (de Brasília) pelo segundo jogo da semifinal do Campeonato Paulista da categoria. Após empate em 3 a 3 no duelo de ida, uma vitória sob a Ferroviária garante o Verdão na decisão.
Since taking over at Manchester United in the summer of 2022, Erik ten Hag has put a heavy focus on signing players from his former club, Ajax.
Over each of the three summers he has been at the helm at Old Trafford, the Dutchman has brought in at least one player he used to manage at the Dutch giants.
In his first summer, he signed Lisandro Martinez and Antony, who cost an eye-watering £81.3m. In 2023, they brought in goalkeeper Andre Onana, before adding defensive pair Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, who also played under the Dutchman at Ajax.
De Ligt scores against Southampton.
Have all of these moves gone according to plan? Well, Antony has been a notable dud and Martinez wasn’t received particularly well when he first stepped foot on English shores.
First impressions of Lisandro Martinez
It may seem odd that United’s manager has a strict transfer policy of signing his former players, although there is little argument against him on the face of things, given how successful his side was during his time in Amsterdam.
There was great speculation over a couple of the signings, including Antony, given his extortionate price. However, the player who arguably raised the most question marks was Argentine World Cup winner Martinez.
One of the issues many had about United’s number 6 was his height. Many were unsure if his slender 5 foot 9 frame would mean he’d struggle at centre-back in the Premier League. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher raised this issue on Sky Sports, calling the 26-year-old a “problem” for Ten Hag.
In full, the outspoken pundit noted: ” I’m convinced this can’t work because of the size of him playing in a back four. Maybe he could go left back, maybe he could play in a back three, but in a back four, he cannot play there in the Premier League.”

Martinez’s stats for Man United
Despite the criticism the defender has faced, the Argentine has gone on to prove Carragher, and other doubters wrong by his performances in that famous red shirt over the past two seasons.
Despite injury issues that have seen him miss 56 games in his first two seasons at the club, Martinez has proven to be a key part of Ten Hag’s side.
He has now played 64 games for the Red Devils, scoring one goal against Arsenal in 2022/23, and has played an important part in United’s Carabao Cup and FA Cup triumphs.
Although he featured just twice in their FA Cup win last term, he was crucial in the final against Manchester City, in which the 13-time winners of the competition ran out 2-1 victors.
Lisandro Martinez
A large reason for this was the fact he played alongside Raphael Varane. The duo formed an iconic pair for the Red Devils, despite playing just 33 times with each other. They managed 21 wins as a partnership – the last one being the victory at Wembley – and just five defeats.
Although their time as a pairing was short, it was one that will no doubt live long in the memory of United fans. United captain Bruno Fernandes was certainly a fan of the duo, once explaining they “complement each other very good”.
Now with a new long-term partner in De Ligt, and his injury problems hopefully behind him, Martinez has made a good start to the 2024/25 campaign. According to Sofascore, the South American averages 2.3 interceptions per game, 3.8 ball recoveries and an impressive 94% pass accuracy.

Stats from Sofascore
Despite his injury troubles, Martinez has certainly gone a long way to proving Carragher, and his doubters wrong. The Liverpool legend thought he would be an issue for United in defence, but in fact, he has been the opposite; an undroppable player, an integral reason for winning silverware and a man quickly becoming a cult hero at Old Trafford.

The talented international just could not make it work at United, and now he’s playing outside of Europe entirely.
