WATCH – Raval’s drive hits Ellis on the head, goes for six
In a bizarre incident in New Zealand’s domestic 50-over competition, Auckland batsman Jeet Raval struck an Andrew Ellis delivery so hard that it hit the bowler’s head and still crossed the boundary ropes for a six. Ellis, the Canterbury captain, passed a concussion test before completing his over and later on batted at his usual No. 6 position, “showing no obvious ill effects,” according to a New Zealand Cricket release.The incident occurred in the 19th over of Auckland’s innings in the third preliminary final of the Ford Trophy. Auckland opted to bat, and when Ellis brought himself on, Raval struck consecutive sixes in his first over. The second of the lofted drives struck Ellis on the front of his head before sailing over the ropes. The umpire initially signalled a four, before revising his decision. Ellis left the field for a concussion test, and went on to bowl six overs after that to end with figures of 7-0-52-2, including Raval’s wicket, in Canterbury’s 107-run loss.”Whenever anybody gets hit in the head, your immediate concern is for the person, and I was worried Andrew had hurt himself,” Raval said. “But, thankfully, it soon looked like he hadn’t been injured by what had seemed a nasty blow. He’s a true Cantab, a very tough nut, and it was a relief for me to see him carry on and complete the game without any visible effects. My hope for him is that he won’t experience any delayed concussion. It’s certainly not pleasant for anyone to experience that in a game.”Auckland’s win set up a final clash with Central Districts on Saturday, after Raval scored 149 off 153, studded with 10 fours and four sixes, to lead them to 304 for 6. In reply, Canterbury, the defending champions, were bowled out for 197 in 37.2 overs, as legspinner Tarun Nethula ran through the middle and lower order with 4 for 43. Michael Pollard top-scored for Canterbury with 47, and only one other batsman – Todd Astle – crossed 40.

With their eyes firmly fixated on retaining their Scottish Premiership crown once again, the last thing that Celtic need is any injury disruptions, especially as the Champions League also gets underway.
The Hoops haven't showed signs of slowing down when it comes to their dominance in Scotland's top flight, and already sit top of the league, four points clear of Old Firm rivals Rangers.
Last time out, Brendan Rodgers' side eased past Dundee 3-0, courtesy of goals from David Turnball, Kyogo Furuhashi, and Matt O'Riley. It was a routine victory for Celtic, but they were not without their concerns, with one key player going off injured at half-time.
What's the latest Celtic injury news?
So far this season, Celtic have been fairly unfortunate when it comes to injuries, but have masked their absences well through impressive results. As things stand, Rodgers is without Stephen Welsh, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Maik Nawrocki, Reo Hatate, and Liel Abada in what has been a frustrating time when attempting to enjoy a full squad.
One more injury blow emerged over the weekend, and when Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips was forced off at half-time against Dundee, the worst was feared.
A sign of relief would have been heard round Celtic Park today, though, as the central defender was pictured in full training ahead of the Hoops' clash against Feyenoord. With that said, Phillips looks more than ready to play a part.
Celtic will be hoping to get off to a fast start in Group E, as they look to defy the odds to reach the last 16, beating the likes of Atletico Madrid, Lazio, and Feyenoord to progression as a result. Phillips, using his experience among Europe's elite gained at Liverpool, could play a large part in that.
How has Nat Phillips performed this season?
Liverpool defender Nat Phillips.
After playing somewhat of an emergency role at Liverpool for so long, Phillips finally has his chance to impress on a consistent basis at Celtic. He finally got that opportunity last time out, too, only to be forced off at the break through injury. Getting his debut under his belt, nonetheless, he will now look to push on even further.
Statistically speaking, via FBref, Phillips has proven in the past just how valuable he can be, particularly when it comes to his work off the ball, making an average of 4.51 clearances, as well as winning over one tackle per 90.
When at his best, the defender has earned some high praise, too, including from Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who said, via The Metro after the Reds were held to a draw by Brighton & Hove Albion: "Very good, I couldn’t be more proud of the boys what they put out here today. In the first half hour we struggled with the new backline with their balls in behind because we didn’t drop at the right moment.
"We got that sorted in the first half already. Second half we had no problems with that anymore. But second half we had some problems with energy so we sat a little bit deeper. Nat Phillips played an exceptional game, honestly, so that was all good. You need in football always a little bit of luck to win a tough away game. And today we didn’t have luck so it was a draw."

Ireland’s captain says his Full Member team are the lucky ones, as he sympathises with the Associates who missed out on the World Cup

Ireland may have missed out on qualification for the 2019 World Cup, but at least they are now an ICC Full Member, says captain William Porterfield, who believes that the situation is far more bleak for the Associate nations who have been excluded from next year’s 10-team event.”There’s a lot of things on the horizon [for Ireland]”, Porterfield said in the wake of his side’s five-wicket defeat against Afghanistan. “In a couple of weeks’ time we’ll regroup and start preparing for the Test match [against Pakistan]. And we’ve got a few other fixtures over the summer.”To some extent we’re lucky. We’ve managed to get where we are. I feel sorry for Scotland, how it ended for them. For them to progress, it’s going to be harder.”Scotland were not one of the fancied sides heading into the qualifiers, but they were undefeated going into the Super Six stage, having beaten Afghanistan, Hong Kong and Nepal and tied with Zimbabwe. But defeats to Ireland and West Indies, the latter by only five runs in a rain-affected match, sealed their elimination. In his final press conference, Scotland captain Kyle Coetzer said that he didn’t know when his team would next get their chance to progress as a cricketing nation.”We’ve got our pathway, as hard as it is, to keep drip-feeding money out to keep improving facilities and things like that, from the ICC,” said Porterfield. “I feel sorry for a lot of other teams that are leaving here. Obviously ourselves and Afghanistan got elevated [to Full Member status], which we’re grateful for.”Porterfield criticised the limited opportunities available to teams below cricket’s top tier, as well as the structure of the World Cup next year. That tournament will be limited to only ten teams, with the format of the group stage ensuring that teams likely to attract large television audiences, such as India, England and Australia, will be guaranteed nine games.”Every 208 weeks you’ve got a six-week competition so two or three big teams can play nine games on TV, so that the ICC can cash in with a big cheque,” said Porterfield.”And a lot of teams will leave here with nothing in their pocket. Scotland have come so close and yet so far themselves, but what have they got to look forward to for the next few years? It’s going to be so hard for them to try to get money out of the ICC to improve things.”We got the opportunity in 2007 to play in the World Cup and we knocked out Pakistan, we tied with Zimbabwe, we got to the Super Eights and we beat Bangladesh. We took down England in 2011 with a couple of games over four years. It was the same going into 2015. They tried to make it a 10-team World Cup last time with no qualification. It’s now a 10-team World Cup with two spots.”It’s not hard, with the big cheques they’re getting now, with India getting nine games on TV, England getting nine games, Australia getting nine games, that has to be pushed back down through the ranks. All I hear is how good this competition has been, and how everyone has beaten everyone. [Money] has to be put back into the game, for the countries that don’t have a World Cup to look forward to, or the possibility of getting to the World Cup.””I’m not just saying this because we didn’t get there this time, but I feel sorry for a lot of countries that are leaving here, and they don’t know what’s going to happen next week.”
O Comitê Gestor do Santos encaminhou um acordo com o Hamburgo (ALE) nesta quinta-feira (08), referente a dívida de 4,5 milhões de euros pelo não pagamento aos alemães pelo zagueiro Cléber Reis, contratado em 2017, ainda na gestão Modesto Roma Júnior.

A diretoria santista conseguiu um empréstimo de 1,5 milhão de euros sem juros vindo do candidato à presidència do clube, Andrés Rueda. O outro milhão já estava nos cofres do clube através de recebidos recentes. O Peixe tambem conseguiu o abatimento de 1,4 milhão de euros por parte dos alemães, que elogiaram o empenho da atual gestão em resolver a pendência logo nos primeiros dias.
O Alvinegro terá até o dia 15 de outubro para pagar essa primeira quantia e, após isso, repassará 600 mil euros em três parcelas de 200 mil euros, pagos nos dias 15 de dezembro de 2020, 15 de fevereiro de 2021 e 15 de abril de 2021.
Com o acordo, o Hamburgo (ALE) derrubará a ação que tem contra o Peixe, que impede que o clube registre novos atletas desde março. No entanto, caso o Santos atrase alguma das parcelas há previsão de multa a ser paga.
As tratativas para negociação foram feitas por Walter Shaclka, integrante da chapa “União pelo Santos”, encabeçada por Rueda, e já foi aprovado pelo Conselho Fiscal.
On September 3rd, 2022, Liverpool left Goodison Park rueing missed opportunities in a goalless draw against Everton in a disjointed, discordant effort once again, sixth in the Premier League and six points adrift of pace-setters Arsenal.
The Reds had two wins from six matches, and while the 2022/23 Premier League season was in its early stage, something was not right with Jurgen Klopp's side, who had just months before taken Manchester City to the wire in an enthralling title race, lost the Champions League final against Real Madrid and won the domestic cup double, defeating Chelsea on penalties both times.
Perhaps it was that psychological blow of misfortune, halting an agonisingly close bid for a historic quadruple, that derailed Liverpool, who have risen to the fore under their German manager's illustrious management.
This season, at the same point as last year's Toffees draw, the Anfield side have blitzed into early title contention, boasting five wins and a draw from six matches, behind only perfect Manchester City and looking akin to the dominant force that the club was under Klopp's reign before the recent seasonal setback.
The club might ply their trade in the Europa League this time around, but Liverpool look good for ensuring it is but a sojourn into the second tier of European competition, with Klopp hailing "Liverpool 2.0", having crafted a much-changed midfield the high-powered engine for a devastating attack once again.
In the most recent match, a 3-1 home victory over West Ham United, Liverpool extended their winning run in the top flight to five matches after starting the term with a draw against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
There is a long road ahead, but the resurgent Reds look set for a far more successful season after falling by the wayside last time out.
How did Liverpool perform against West Ham?
While Liverpool defeated the Hammers and bagged their fourth 3-1 win of the season, across all competitions, there is an undeniable feeling that more work needs to be done.
This is only natural, of course; last term, the Merseyside outfit finished the league campaign with 47 goals conceded – only the joint-seventh-best record in the division.
It's early days, but only Manchester City have shipped fewer than the Reds' five in the Premier League thus far, and that is promising, but slow starts continue to threaten disruption, with West Ham looking the better of the competing teams on Sunday afternoon until Mohamed Salah's opening strike.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk.
After Jarrod Bowen's headed equaliser before the break, The Athletic's ever-optimistic James Pearce stated that it was "too slow and predictable", though he was right in stating that the away team were deservedly level.
The second-half onslaught came with conviction, however, with Darwin Nunez's delightful volley from an equally delicious looping through ball from Alexis Mac Allister reclaiming the lead in the 60th minute, before substitute Diogo Jota added to the lead with a close-range effort following Virgil van Dijk's knockdown.
While Liverpool's offensive guile and fluidity was on full display, one of the standout performers plied his trade within the backline. Joe Gomez, rebuked so often last season, looks to be enjoying a second coming this year.
How good was Joe Gomez last season?
Candidly, not very.
Gomez was at the epicentre of a shoddy defence embroiled in a loss of identity and confidence, and he only started 15 times in the league after losing the trust of his boss, unused for nine of the final ten matches of the term before languishing in the final match, a 4-4 draw against Southampton that prompted podcaster Graeme Kelly to brand him as "finished".
Liverpool's Joe Gomez
The £85k-per-week defender's future was looking more and more certain to lie away from Anfield, with comments from those such as Alan Shearer, who said he "makes too many mistakes", compounding his struggles on the pitch, making errors leading to shots and goals last season, also giving away a penalty in the Premier League.
It was a far cry from the dynamic defender who played an instrumental role in the conquering of the Premier League and Champions League under Klopp's stewardship, having made 179 appearances for the club since signing from Charlton Athletic for an initial fee of £3m as an 18-year-old in 2015.
How did Joe Gomez perform vs West Ham?
The England international – who, albeit, has not featured for his country since 2020 – was not at his best last season and came under heavy criticism for his role in Liverpool's woes last season.
But against the Hammers, he looked as good as he's been for some time, continuing a "brilliant" start to the season – as was said by reporter Neil Jones – and serving across central and wide defensive positions.
As per Sofascore, the 26-year-old was steadfast in his role at right-back, covering the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold once again, earning a match score of 7.5, taking 88 touches, completing 87% of his passes, succeeding with two of his three dribbles, making one key pass, forging three tackles, two interceptions and incredibly winning eight of his nine contested duels – which constitutes an 89% success rate.
Writer Joel Rabinowitz acknowledged the “renaissance” and said that he was "outstanding once again".
Nunez too looks a revitalised force after flattering to deceive in large parts following his £85m transfer from Benfica last summer, scoring 15 times across all competitions but criticised for missing “too many chances” by the likes of talkSPORT’s Tony Cascarino.
This season, the 24-year-old has already plundered four strikes and two assists across all competitions, despite only starting three times.
That said, given his role last term, Gomez's return to form has been even more impressive. Starting the last three Premier League matches for Klopp's side, it is wonderful that the defender is returning to the vigour that left him in such good standing in the past, and ending the woes of last year.
Liverpool's defence has performed so far this year but there are undeniable signs that it is not at its fluid, rock-solid best yet, but with the likes of Gomez contributing so effectively to the efforts there is every possibility that silver-laden success can be found once again at Anfield.
Mais uma vez titular do sistema defensivo do São Paulo, o zagueiro Bruno Alves comentou sobre o momento do clube na temporada e demonstrou confiança ao falar sobre o futuro do Tricolor. Na visão do jogador, o elenco é qualificado e tem potencial para avançar na Copa do Brasil, no próximo domingo, quando decide a vaga para as quartas de final contra o Fortaleza, no Morumbi.
-A gente confia no nosso trabalho. Temos mais dias para nos preparar. Todos os jogadores estão empenhados e sabemos da necessidade dessa vitória. Vamos lutar até o fim para buscarmos essa vitória e essa classificação – explicou o jogador em entrevista coletiva na noite da última terça, logo após a vitória, por 5 a 1, diante do Binacional-PER.
No domingo, às 20h30, o São Paulo tem um desafio grande pela frente. Em casa, a equipe joga por uma vitória diante do Fortaleza de Rogério Ceni para se garantir nas quartas de final da Copa do Brasil. Como o jogo de ida, no Ceará, acabou empatado, em 3 a 3, e não o critério do gol qualificado fora de casa, qualquer nova igualdade leva o confronto para as penalidades.

Como a partida é de extrema importância para as pretensões do clube na temporada, o técnico Fernando Diniz irá com força máxima. Na visão de Bruno Alves, independente de quem seja escolhido pela comissão técnica, todo o elenco está pronto para corresponder dentro de campo e colocar o Tricolor do Morumbi entre as oito melhores equipes do torneio nacional.
– O elenco do São Paulo é qualificado. Temos na base 30 jogadores que podem ser titulares. O Diniz sempre monta a melhor equipe no momento. É isso que faz uma equipe forte e não pode existir vaidade, é assim que se faz uma equipe forte. Estamos aqui pelo São Paulo, não pelo nosso ego ou vaidade. Trabalhamos pelo clube – ponderou o atleta, ao ser questionado sobre sua ida ao banco de reservas no início do Brasileirão e sua consequente retomada como titular da equipe.
