Isinbayeva celebrated the feat distributing smiles, but not avoid the tears. Brazil's Fabiana Murer secured the bronze with 4.71 m

In Berlin, Isinbayeva failed to hit any jump and left the competition without a medal and world record without as everyone expected. The Russian, however, showed Friday that he learned the lesson. This time, she started with a smaller jump, 4.71 m, and was thrilled when he managed to complete it successfully. Then it was increasing the height until you reach the incredible mark of 5.06 m, world record.

With the Russian muse back to his old form, the other jumping played only a silver medal. The Polish world champion Anna Rogowska improved an inch of its brand won in Berlin, and finished second (4.76 m). Brazil's Fabiana Murer has also been improved and took third on the podium with the leap of 4.71 m. In Germany, she had been in fifth with 4.65 m.

'Finger-hard' that tormented Mancini is in sight of Luxembourg

Thursday, August 13, 2009

The technical Vanderlei Luxembourg, the Saints, took command of the team and the game already "hard-finger" that both torment his predecessor, Vagner Mancini. The coach has his suspicions. Luxair said that even left a bait to try to catch the person who passes information to the press.

- Get a name that has nothing to do just to see if left in the press - the coach said in an interview to radio "Culture" of Santos. He does not say the name of the bait or the suspects, but admits that the player has to be speculation in the news.

So that requires secrecy - the complete technical.

Perdas nos clubes brasileiros

Saturday, August 8, 2009

A crise econômica mundial, que eclodiu de vez no futebol no fim de 2008, indicaria um período de transferências discreto. Clubes europeus, em sua maioria endividados e com receitas diminutas, freariam investimentos, para alívio dos brasileiros. Mas o que se viu desde a abertura da janela foi um mercado a todo vapor. Prova disso foram os altos gastos efetuados pelo Real Madrid, que trouxe Kaká e Cristiano Ronaldo por R$ 436,6 milhões, e a saída de boa parte dos destaques do Brasil, como Ramires, André Santos, Nilmar e Wagner.

E o “pesadelo” não para por aí. O fechamento do mercado está marcado apenas para o próximo dia 31 de agosto, e jogadores como Kléber, Elias, Miranda, Fred, Emerson e Maxi López estão na mira dos estrangeiros, sejam eles europeus ou asiáticos. Para Júnior, comentarista da TV Globo, é improvável que a situação se modifique.

– Acho que isso dificilmente mudará em razão da necessidade dos clubes venderem. Até mesmo Internacional e Cruzeiro, bem administrados, precisam vender jogadores para construir uma estabilidade na parte financeira. Não tem como fugir disso – analisou

A Raposa, inclusive, tem liderado no quesito. Até o momento, o clube negociou três jogadores titulares na campanha que a levou ao vice-campeonato da Taça Libertadores: Ramires rumou para o Benfica, de Portugal, e Gerson Magrão tornou-se companheiro de Guilherme no Dínamo de Kiev, na Ucrânia, enquanto Wagner ainda não teve o seu destino conhecido. As transações somadas renderam R$ 33,1 milhões aos cofres cruzeirenses. O atacante Kléber pode ser o próximo.

– O Cruzeiro sempre foi bom vendedor, haja vista os negócios da história recente do clube. Cada vez um bom jogador se destacar, eles vão se desfazer dos jogadores. E essa perda já está tendo uma influência no rendimento. Reforço de caixa, e perda dentro de campo. Uma saída do Kléber, por exemplo, seria considerável – disse Júnior.

Uma debandada que já teve resposta do presidente Zezé Perrella, que trouxe os meias Gilberto e Leandro Lima, o ponta Guerrón, e o zagueiro Gil. No entanto, os reforços ainda não puderam estrear, e o Cruzeiro periga terminar a 18ª rodada na zona do rebaixamento.

Caso semelhante vive o Corinthians, apesar dos oito pontos e oito colocações que o separam da Raposa na tabela de classificação. Campeão paulista de forma invicta, e da Copa do Brasil com apenas uma derrota, o Timão perdeu três dos seus maiores destaques: André Santos e Cristian, para o Fenerbahçe, da Turquia, e Douglas, para o Al Wasl, dos Emirados Árabes Unidos. Com a base desfigurada, e Ronaldo Fenômeno lesionado até setembro, Mano Menezes viu a equipe perder ritmo e acumular quatro jogos sem vitória.

Jogadores como o volante Edu, e os zagueiros Paulo André e Edgar Balbuena foram contratados. O primeiro estreou na derrota para o Náutico, nos Aflitos, na última quarta-feira.

– O Corinthians já está garantido na Libertadores no ano de seu centenário. Talvez fosse o único clube que poderia se dar ao luxo de vender jogadores e remontar o time durante esse período. Só não sei até que ponto isso pode ser benéfico para o time. A torcida já está preocupada – afirmou o comentarista.

Clubes como Internacional e São Paulo também perderam peças importantes. O Colorado vendeu o atacante Nilmar, estrela do time, ao Villarreal, da Espanha, por cerca de R$ 38,7 milhões. Repôs com Edu, ex-Celta, enquanto o Tricolor Paulista rescindiu com Eduardo Costa, mas pode ter de se despedir do zagueiro Miranda, constantemente convocado à seleção brasileira. O São Paulo possuí 60% dos direitos federativos do atleta e sua multa contratual está estipulada em R$ 39 milhões.

O atacante rubro-negro Emerson voltou a receber propostas dos Emirados Árabes. O Al-Ahli seria o interessado. No Tricolor, o Sevilla apareceu como candidato a contratar Fred, que se recupera de grave lesão muscular.

Na contramão, o Palmeiras lutou para manter o volante Pierre, fundamental no esquema tático que levou o time à liderança do Brasileirão, e que recebeu proposta tentadora dos Emirados Árabes. Com 57 roubadas de bola, o jogador está apenas atrás de Willians, do Flamengo, no quesito. A saída prevista de Keirrison afetou o Alviverde durante um pequeno período, mas Obina e Diego Souza e Cleiton Xavier, em grande fase, deram conta do recado. Para depender menos das individualidades dos meias, o clube trouxe o atacante Robert, ex-América do México.

Ajustar o calendário de acordo com o futebol europeu seria uma das tentativas da CBF em minimizar as transferências. Segundo Júnior, uma mudança de que não deve partir da entidade.

– O pontapé inicial tem que ser feito através da Conmebol. A Taça Libertadores é a mais importante, e deveria terminar no fim da temporada. Sou favorável à adequação do calendário, os times poderiam voltar a fazer excursões pela Europa. Isso acabou. Hoje eles viajam para a Ásia, América do Norte, Oceania... Quem viveu aquela época sabe o que significa jogar torneios contra Real Madrid, Barcelona e Milan – disse o ex-camisa 5 do Flamengo, que teve passagens pela futebol italiano nos anos 80.

Enquanto não surge uma solução concreta, resta aos clubes rezarem para que o tão aguardado mês de setembro chegue logo. E sem muitas movimentações em aeroportos internacionais.

Filho de Ronaldo é submetido a uma cirurgia, e craque adia recuperação

Após a cirurgia realizada no último dia 29 de julho, quando foi corrigida a fratura que teve no terceiro e quarto metacarpos da mão esquerda, Ronaldo deveria iniciar o processo de recuperação física no Corinthians apenas neste sábado, 8 de agosto, mas a sua ausência no Parque São Jorge durante a semana tem explicação. Segunda o jornal "Folha de S. Paulo", o Fenômeno não compareceu ao clube para ser avaliado pelo departamento médico, como estava previsto, porque o seu filho, Ronald, foi submetido em São Paulo a uma cirurgia na garganta.

O médico do clube Joaquim Grava, no entanto, esteve três vezes com o atacante durante os últimos dias. Segundo ele, Ronaldo está bem, não usa mais a tipoia e já está sem o gesso na mão. Grava, por outro lado, se recusou a comentar a lipoaspiração a que o Fenômeno se submeteu, mas negou que o procedimento tenha atrasado o processo de recuperação.

Se tudo der certo, Ronaldo voltará a jogar no dia 12 de setembro, contra o Coritiba, no Couto Pereira, pela quinta rodada do returno do Brasileirão. Mas caso não tenha condições, é certa a sua presença no "Jogo da Paz", o amistoso entre Corinthans e Flamengo em território palestino, no dia 15.

Sonhando alto, Santos e Avaí fazem duelo decisivo na Vila Belmiro

Um confronto direto por vaga no G-4. Esse é o clima do jogo entre Santos e Avaí, neste sábado, às 18h30m (horário de Brasília), pela 18ª rodada do Brasileirão. Os dois times vivem fases ascendentes e a conquista de uma vaga na Taça Libertadores 2010 começa a parecer um sonho possível.

Principalmente para os catarinenses, que largaram a lanterna, venceram seis dos últimos sete jogos, não perdem desde o dia 11 de julho, e já estão em sexto lugar, com 26 pontos, apenas um a menos que o Internacional, o quarto colocado. Já o Peixe venceu três dos últimos quatro jogos, vem de dois triunfos consecutivos fora de casa, está em 12º, com 23 pontos, mas tem um jogo a menos que seus concorrentes.

Caso vençam, os santistas se igualam em pontos ao time do técnico Silas, mas precisariam golear para ultrapassar o rival. O Avaí tem cinco gols de saldo. O do Peixe é zero. Já a equipe de Florianópolis pode até entrar no G-4 se conseguir bater o Alvinegro Praiano, mas dependeria de tropeços de São Paulo ou Internacional.
