Brad Hodge hurt Queensland during his marathon 261 before Victoria tried to crush them by batting on to a massive 5 for 656. The teams are a chance of meeting again in Friday’s final, but after the past two days it would be understandable if the Bulls could think of nothing worse than running into Hodge and Co two weeks in a row.Hodge wanted a long stay in preparation for the five-day decider and he spent almost eight hours working on his double-century against his potential opponents. He also became the sixth to pass 10,000 Sheffield Shield runs during his display, which lasted 394 balls and included 33 fours and three sixes.Queensland’s bowlers will do well to recover from such treatment and they were hindered further by a groin injury to Chris Swan. Ben Laughlin finally removed Hodge, who began with a 244-run stand with Chris Rogers on Friday, when he was caught by Chris Hartley, but the damage didn’t stop.Cameron White found some valuable form with 95 not out and Rob Quiney fell six short of a century. By the end of the day Victoria had collected 371 runs in 112 overs and owned a lead of 354.James Hopes was economical with 2 for 66 off 30 overs, including bowling David Hussey for 62 before lunch, while Laughlin had 2 for 189 off 44. The Bulls’ advantage over Tasmania has been cut to two points, and if the Tigers win in Adelaide Queensland’s campaign will be over. Their plight was not helped when Shane Watson, who is playing as a specialist batsman, was struck in the face while fielding.

Gerrard digs at Rangers board

Many Glasgow Rangers fans have been left erupting as some comments emerged from Steven Gerrard.

Speaking in his pre-game press conference ahead of the match at home to Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday afternoon, the English manager has now claimed that the club need to ‘spend big money’ in transfer windows in order to be able to compete, citing that in the last two windows they ‘haven’t spent a penny’.

This comes after the Light Blues lost 1-0 away at Sparta Prague in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday night, after losing their opening game 2-0 at home to Lyon in the competition (BBC Sport).

They have also drawn and lost a match in the SPFL already as well, and so question marks have been raised over their performances this season compared to last.

Nonetheless, several Light Blues seemed to be taken back by his subtle dig at the board.

MatériaMais Notícias

O lateral-direito Rodinei sofreu uma entorse no tornozelo direito no treino do Flamengo, na tarde desta quinta-feira, no Ninho do Urubu. O camisa 2 recebeu auxílio para deixar o gramado e foi retirado do local no carrinho. Ele levou a pior numa disputa de bola com o também lateral Renê e caiu no campo, sentindo muitas dores.

Rodinei chegou a ser titular recentemente e vem sendo utilizado com frequência pelo técnico Zé Ricardo. No último jogo, porém, contra o Palmeiras, Pará foi o titular na lateral direita.

Os reservas fizeram um treino tático na tarde desta quinta-feira, na reapresentação após o empate de 2 a 2 com o Palmeiras. Já os titulares ficaram na academia, na tradicional atividade regenerativa.

Wins for Jamaica, T&T and CCC

A round-up of the fourth day of the 13th round matches of the Regional Four Day Competition

Cricinfo staff07-Apr-2009Jamaica added another win against their name as they continued their dominant run – they have already won the championship – by beating Guyana by 139 runs in Montego Bay. Fast bowlers Daren Powell, who has been left out of the West Indies squad for the tour of England, and David Bernard bagged three wickets each as the Guyana batsmen offered little resistance in pursuit of 330. They struggled from the outset, collapsing to 127 for 8 before a 63-run partnership between wicketkeeper Narsingh Deonarine (55) and Veerasammy Permaul (24) helped them to a better score. Legspinner Odean Brown snapped up three wickets to hasten the end as bottom-placed Guyana slipped to their sixth defeat in the tournament. The Guyana bowlers had earlier done well to bowl out Jamaica for 248 with legspinner Davendra Bishoo taking four wickets, but the damage had already been done.Trinidad and Tobago had finished the third day as favourites to win their contest against Leeward Islands, and they performed admirably to seal a comfortable nine-wicket win on the fourth. They held the aces, having reduced Leewards to 142 for 4 at stumps on the third day, and continued to make frequent inroads to bowl them out for 256 today. Tonito Willett made a determined 40 but a three-wicket burst from left-arm spinner Imran Khan and two wickets for offspinner Amit Jaggernauth shut Leewards out of the game as they lost their last five wickets for 64, setting T & T an easy target of 127. Imran was again the star for his team, striking a quick 68 as opener to complete the victory in the 26th over. T & T now have two wins in the competition and are third in the table with 66 points. Leewards, who have won four and lost as many are just one point short of their opponents.Barbados put up a good fight against Combined Campuses and Colleges in Bridgetown, posting 278 after tottering at 167 for 7 at stumps on the third day, but failed to set a sizeable target with their opponents winning by five wickets. Overnight batsmen Kevin Stoute (63) and Tino Best (51) added 92 for the eighth wicket to defy CCC in the morning session but a double-strike by offspinner Ryan Austin (4-93) and Stoute’s dismissal off left-arm spinner Anderson Sealy put an end to their resistance. CCC began well, adding 51 but the loss of four wickets for 46 from there on – Ryan Hinds took 3 for 43 – put them in a spot of bother. But an unbeaten 26 from wicketkeeper Chadwick Walton and a steady innings from Floyd Reifer, who was out on the same score, capped CCC’s third win of the tournament. Barbados, who slipped to their fourth straight defeat are still six points ahead of CCC.

Richarlison é vendido a clube inglês e não defende mais o Fluminense

MatériaMais Notícias

Richarlison já não é mais jogador do Fluminense. O presidente Pedro Abad confirmou nesta segunda a venda do atacante ao Watford por 12,5 milhões de euros. O Tricolor tem direito a 50% desse valor – cerca de R$ 23 milhões – e mantém 10% dos direitos econômicos do jogador em uma futura transferência.

– Richarlison não vai viajar para enfrentar o Sport. A saída está confirmada, ele vai jogar no Watford, da Inglaterra. Já foi tudo defnido. O último jogo dele seria no domingo, contra a Ponte Preta – declarou Pedro Abad em coletiva no CT.

Segundo Pedro Abad, a venda de Richarlison estava acertada desde sexta-feira. A princípio, o dinheiro da venda será utilizado para quitar as dívidas do clube com o atual grupo de jogadores. Depois, a diretoria utilizará o restante do valor na busca por reforços. Neste ano, o clube já ficou em débito com o elenco por alguns meses, e os R$ 23 milhões vão ajudar o Fluminense a chegar até o fim da temporada sem atrasar salários ou direitos de imagem outra vez.

O valor da venda também será investido em algumas melhorias no CT Pedro Antonio e para o pagamento das últimas parcelas ao Independiente Del Valle, do Equador, referentes às contratações de Junior Sornoza e Orejuela.

Após destacar-se na Série B de 2015, Richarlison foi comprado em dezembro daquele ano. O Tricolor pagou ao América-MG R$ 10 milhões por 50% dos direitos econômicos do atacante. Aos 20 anos, o jogador deixa o Flu tendo disputado 70 jogos, marcado 19 gols e conquistado a Taça Guanabara, em 2017, e a Primeira Liga, em 2016.

-O Fluminense agradece a Richarlison pela dedicação e empenho em seus 70 jogos e 19 gols com a camisa tricolor, e deseja sucesso em sua nova etapa profissional – publicou o clube das Laranjeiras em seu site oficial.

FLUMINENSE RECUSOU PROPOSTAS DE AJAX E PALMEIRAS POR ATACANTE

Após um 2016 de altos e baixos, com apenas quatro gols, Richarlison iniciou a atual temporada com tudo. Destaque no Sul-Americano Sub-20, apesar da participação ruim da Seleção Brasileira, o atacante não sentiu falta da pré-temporada e encaixou-se rapidamente no time de Abel Braga. Ao lado de Henrique Dourado, Wellington Silva ou Scarpa, o camisa 70 passou a brilhar.

Os gols e assistências despertaram o interesse de vários clubes. O primeiro a procurar o Fluminense foi o Ajax, ainda em fevereiro, e fez uma oferta de 9 milhões de euros, cerca de R$ 30 milhões, considerada baixa pelo Tricolor.

Nas últimas semanas, o clube holandês voltou a procurar o atacante e o Flu, e a saída de Richarlison para o Ajax era vista como certa pelo staff do jogador. No entanto, a oferta não alcançou o valor desejado pelo Tricolor, que passou a ser procurado por clubes italianos e ingleses.

Antes disso, o Palmeiras já havia feito uma oferta de R$ 40 milhões, mas a forma com que a negociação foi conduzida, na semana que antecedia o confronto entre os times no Brasileirão, não agradou a cúpula tricolor, que encerrou as conversas após Richarlison pedir para não enfrentar o Palmeiras.

Liverpool: Fans react to James Milner stat

Liverpool’s James Milner has made more fouls per 90 minutes than anyone else in this season’s Premier League, WhoScored data shows.

Milner has started three top-flight matches so far this term, lining-up in midfield for the opening day win at Norwich and then slotting in at right-back against Crystal Palace and Manchester City in the absence of Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Should Milner’s fouls have led to a red card?

He was at the centre of controversy against his former club City last time out. After being booked in the 42nd minute, he escaped a sending off for a challenge on Bernardo Silva in the second half. Pep Guardiola said after the game that he believed Milner should have been given his marching orders.

Jurgen Klopp has said that he hopes to have Alexander-Arnold back available for selection after the international break, when Liverpool are due to travel to Watford before facing Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.

Fan feed Anfield Edition relayed the statistic about Milner’s foul concession, and here’s what some Reds supporters made of it, with one fan describing his tendency to give away free kick as an “accident waiting to happen”.

Liverpool fans desperate to sign Gavi

A number of Liverpool supporters are desperate for the Reds to sign Barcelona youngster Gavi following his impressive performances for Spain in recent days.

The La Liga giants may be in disarray at the moment, but they do at least have some special young players in their ranks. Pedri is one of the best emerging talents in the world and the same applies to attacking midfielder Gavi, who is enjoying a meteoric rise in the game.

[freshpress-quiz id=“375258″]

The 17-year-old only has seven first team appearances to his name for Barca, but he is already making a name for himself at senior international level.

Gavi, who has been linked with a move to Liverpool, won his first two caps for his country during the current international break, impressing in the UEFA Nations League and helping them finish as runners-up.
