Legspinner Lloyd Pope will not get the chance to play in the Sheffield Shield final as South Australia look set to opt for an extra seamer in the hope of breaking a 29-year title-winning drought against Queensland.Captain Nathan McSweeney confirmed on Tuesday that Pope will be squeezed out of the XI against Queensland. Pope has taken 21 wickets at 25.95 in five Shield appearances this season, including match-winning bags of 6 for 74 against Victoria and 4 for 76 against Tasmania, but both of those came at Adelaide Oval.He took 3 for 84 from 26 overs last week against Queensland at Karen Rolton Oval, where the final will be played. But both sides are expecting more moisture and grass in the surface and South Australia are likely to welcome back seamer Brendan Doggett and seam-bowling allrounder Liam Scott into the line-up after both were rested last week, meaning Pope is one of the men to miss out.Related

Ironman Doggett has Shield glory in sights after career resurgence

“Lloyd’s been great for us this year and his efforts are a great reason why we’re here and playing in a Shield final,” McSweeney said. “I think Karen Rolton Oval is typically a tough ground to bowl spin on. The wicket has a little bit more moisture in it. So hence we’re going with an extra [seam] bowler. It’s a tough decision, but I think when you’re in finals you’ve got to make tough decisions. And unfortunately he’s the one that’s missing out.”Wicketkeeper Harry Nielsen is the other member of South Australia’s 14-man squad that will definitely not feature, having being left out for the last match due to Alex Carey’s return from international duty.How a drawn final is decided

In the event the Sheffield Shield final ends in a draw, the title will be decided on first-innings bonus points which are accrued across the first 100 overs.

Batting teams earn 0.01 of a bonus point for every run scored over 200 in the initial 100 overs; bowling sides get 0.1 of a bonus point for every wicket in the first 100 overs. For example, the batting side scores 350 all out in 90 overs they earn 1.5 points and the bowling side 1 point.

Should bonus points be tied and the match drawn, SA will win the Shield given they finished top of the ladder and earned hosting rights for the final.

McSweeney would not confirm the final XI but it appears likely that one of Henry Thornton or Jordan Buckingham will be squeezed out to make room for Doggett.Thornton’s incredible late season form makes the selection decision extremely difficult. He was the Michael Bevan medallist as player of the match in the Dean Jones Trophy Final, taking 4 for 27, and has since bagged 4 for 42, 3 for 44, and 3 for 90 in the last two Shield games having been a late replacement for Nathan McAndrew when he was rested against Victoria.Buckingham, meanwhile, has taken 21 wickets at 25.76 this season and bowled well for Australia A this summer. Doggett has likewise starred for Australia A in between taking 22 scalps at 29.86 fin Shield cricket.Henry Thornton has produced strong late-season form•Getty Images

South Australia did not push for an outright win against Queensland last week to conserve energy ahead of the final. They had the Bulls 86 for 5 after piling up 614 for 7 declared but ended up needing 113.5 overs to bowl them out for 370 as the surface flattened out, with Jimmy Peirson and Jack Wildermuth posting lower-order centuries.”I think the wicket looks like there’ll be a little bit more life in it, slightly more in it for the bowlers,” McSweeney said. “But I think typically here it’s hard to take 20 wickets. There’s no doubt about that. We’ve got an extra day to try and take them now, so I think it’ll be a really good cricket wicket.”The weight of history sits heavily on the South Australian team despite it being made up of a lot of players from interstate. They have not won a Shield since 1996 and have not played in a final since 2017 or hosted one since 2016. Carey and Jake Lehmann will be the only two surviving members of the 2015-17 group to play in this week’s decider, while Conor McInerney is set to be the only other home grown South Australian in the XI.But despite the squad being made up of so many recruited players, McSweeney believes their journey together and their struggles over recent seasons in building a tight-knit team culture means a Shield triumph would mean as much to them as it would to the rusted on SACA members who have been starved of success for so long.”A lot of the boys have come from interstate,” McSweeney said. “We’ve been giving opportunity for a team that hasn’t had heaps of success, but we’ve been able to build it over the last few years as a group, and that’ll just cap it off I think.”We’ve had a fair bit of change, but I think the core group of players have been here for a long time now, and we’re slowly starting to see the success from all the hard work, and that’s paying off now. It’ll mean so much and hopefully we can get it done.”South Australia squad: Nathan McSweeney (capt), Jordan Buckingham, Alex Carey, Brendan Doggett, Henry Hunt, Jake Lehmann, Ben Manenti, Nathan McAndrew, Conor McInerney, Harry Nielsen, Lloyd Pope, Jason Sangha, Liam Scott, Henry Thornton

"Unbelievable" £40k-a-week Newcastle ace may seal last-minute exit abroad

An “unbelievable” Newcastle United player may have played his final game for the club, with a move abroad possible before the league’s summer transfer window closes.

Potential debuts for Newcastle against Wolves

The Magpies return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon, welcoming Wolves to St James’ Park and looking to kick their season into gear after a relatively slow start.

A frustrating summer window at Newcastle ended positively, despite losing Alexander Isak to Liverpool, with Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa arriving from VfB Stuttgart and Brentford respectively.

The Magpies’ two newest signings will both be vying for a start this weekend, and Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson has talked up the idea of Woltemade leading the line.

“Eddie Howe has to start with Nick Woltemade, if not both him and Yoane Wissa together. Wissa hasn’t played a lot of football recently, so I’m not sure if he goes straight into the starting XI. But if you’re those two forwards, there is no better opportunity to get off the mark than facing Wolves at home!

“I always go with the logic that if the best team in the league wants to sign you, then you’re a good player. Bayern Munich wanted Woltemade, so he must know how to play! If him and Wissa can together get the goals scored by Isak last season, it’s a good transfer window for Newcastle in my opinion.”

Newcastle hero could leave before the weekend

Away from incoming signings, it looks as though Jamaal Lascelles could leave Newcastle on Friday, with reliable journalists Craig Hope and Simon Jones of The Daily Mail reporting that Trabzonspor are “exploring a deal” for the centre-back.

The Turkish transfer deadline day is Friday evening, so it would be a last-gasp piece of business if it does go through, with the 31-year-old only having a year remaining on his current deal.

A move away for Lascelles could make the most sense for all parties, considering it would allow him more regular playing time after dropping down the pecking order, as well as meaning Newcastle cash in on him instead of losing him on a free transfer.

If Lascelles does leave, he will be remembered as an excellent servant for the Magpies down the years, captaining them impressively earlier in his career and being showered with praise by Eddie Howe.

“He’s been an unbelievable captain for us. Captaincy doesn’t just exist on the pitch, it has to exist off the pitch. The two things are so intrinsically linked. A lot of our success last year wasn’t just down to the team, it came down to a group of players giving everything on and off the pitch.”

Newcastle brewing Isak-level star in 18-year-old who's "similar to Mbappe"

Eddie Howe could develop Newcastle’s next Alexander Isak at St James’ Park.

ByWill Miller Sep 12, 2025

At 31, the £40,000-a-week Lascelles is still young enough to be a key starter away from Newcastle, meaning a move to Turkey could be wise, rather than warming the substitutes’ bench for months on end at St James’.

Torcida do Vasco sonha com Lanzini: saiba o quanto ele ganhava na Inglaterra

MatériaMais Notícias

O Vasco segue de olho em contratações para o mercado da bola. Após acertar a chegada do técnico Ramón Diaz, a torcida vascaína quer mais e sonha com reforços de peso. Um dos nomes sugeridos e que foi alvo do clube é o meia argentino Manuel Lanzini, que está livre no mercado após deixar o West Ham (ING).

+ Próximos jogos do Vasco: onde assistir, calendário com datas, horários e mais

No entanto, a questão salarial do jogador pesa na negociação. No clube inglês, Lanzini recebia cerca de R$ 1,5 milhão por mês, ou seja, cerca de R$ 18 milhões por temporada, valor fora da realidade do Vasco no momento.

Vale destacar que o Vasco fez contato com o estafe de Lanzini no último mês de junho para entender os interesses esportivos e financeiros do jogador, que são muito altas. Para dificultar ainda mais a situação do Cruz-Maltino, clubes da Turquia, da Espanha e da Arábia Saudita manifestaram o interesse em contratar o meia argentino.

Contagem regressiva! Saiba até quando o Palmeiras pode contratar reforços nesta janela de transferências

MatériaMais Notícias

Além da eliminação na Copa do Brasil, o Palmeiras venceu apenas um dos últimos oito jogos, sequência que vem gerando bastante insatisfação por parte da torcida alviverde. A principal ‘exigência’ dos palmeirenses é por contratações, visto que o Verdão já tem várias saídas certas, mas ainda não trouxe peças novas para repor. Mas afinal, até quando o Palmeiras pode contratar reforços nesta janela de transferências?

A janela de transferências fecha no dia 2 de agosto (quarta-feira), logo, o Alviverde pode fazer contratações até esta data. O objetivo central do Verdão é um primeiro volante, já que desde a saída de Danilo para o Nottingham Forest em janeiro, o clube vem procurando um ‘camisa 5’ ideal para a equipe de Abel Ferreira. Como já noticiado no Lance!, o Palmeiras entrou na briga para contratar Wendel, volante do Zenit-RUS revelado pelo Fluminense.

Outra questão importante é que na Libertadores, cada clube pode fazer até cinco substituições da lista inicial de 50 jogadores até o dia 29 de julho (sábado), ou seja, caso queira inscrever os reforços para a disputa das oitavas de final da competição, o prazo para o Palmeiras se torna ainda mais curto. Se passar desta data, só poderá fazer a inscrição de atletas para as quartas.

Em entrevista coletiva concedida por Anderson Barros, diretor de futebol palmeirense, na última quinta-feira (13), após a eliminação do clube na Copa do Brasil para o São Paulo, ele destacou a dificuldade encontrada no mercado e declarou que a prioridade do Verdão é ter cautela para não fazer nada que possa prejudicar os cofres em médio e longo prazo.

– Hojebuscamos um camisa 5, temos encontrado dificuldade, quando nosso setor de análise define, há uma série de variáveis, e nós buscamos. O clube nos cobra uma responsabilidade, mas dá uma certa condição para tal. Precisamos ter uma responsabilidade com aquilo que acreditamos ser o melhor para o Palmeiras. Nós temos que entender todo cenário para tomar a melhor decisão.

Embora não tenha prometido as contratações, ela garantiu que o clube está no mercado e pode ter novidades, mas sem fazer loucuras.

– A gente está sempre em busca de reforços, mas eu acho que o maior reforço foi manter esse time extremamente vitorioso, isso é muito importante. Eu não abro mão de manter a nossa base e, claro, estamos de olho no mercado, Temos várias opções, mas não vou fazer loucuras, não vou pagar um valor que o departamento de futebol entenda que não é o valor daquele atleta. Quando eu lido com as finanças do Palmeiras, tenho que ter muita responsabilidade. Então estamos em busca de reforços para o Palmeiras, pode ser que no meio do ano tenhamos novidades, mas sempre com os pés no chão – declarou a presidente do Verdão.

Até o momento, em 2023, as contratações do Palmeiras foram Artur, junto ao Bragantino, e Richard Ríos, junto ao Guarani. A janela de transferências para clubes brasileiros fecha no dia 2 de agosto.

Virgil Van Dijk named "annoying" ex-Arsenal star his toughest opponent – not Messi

Virgil van Dijk is one of the best defenders of his generation. The Dutchman has won it all in English football and he has often done so without even breaking a sweat. But that doesn’t mean that he’s breezed through his time at Liverpool without squaring off against some incredibly difficult opponents.

The Premier League took a breath of anticipation when Erling Haaland and Van Dijk found themselves one-on-one at Anfield not so long ago in a battle that ended with the Norwegian’s wayward shot. Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo has never even scored against the towering Liverpool captain and many others have ended afternoons to forget in his ruthless grasp.

Endless players have endured their toughest games against Van Dijk and that includes Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford, who is now on loan at Barcelona. The England international name-dropped his former Premier League rival when asked about the most difficult defender he’s faced.

Whilst so many have struggled to leave their mark against Van Dijk, however, the same can’t be said for Lionel Messi. When an immovable object met an unstoppable force, Van Dijk may have come away with a shock victory courtesy of Liverpool’s dramatic Champions League comeback, but Messi still had his moment at the Nou Camp – scoring twice.

The fact that one of this generation’s greatest defenders could not keep Messi quiet sums up just how other-wordly the Argentine icon is, more than it sums up Van Dijk’s own shortcomings on a difficult evening. But the Dutchman, to his credit, was not fooled twice by Messi’s magic and sent him crashing out of the Champions League in historic fashion in the second leg.

That Nou Camp thrashing courtesy of Messi will be one that Van Dijk remembers even to this day, but it wasn’t enough to make the Barcelona legend his toughest opponent. Instead, the central defender dropped an unexpected name.

Van Dijk names "annoying" Giroud as toughest opponent

Speaking to Gary Neville on The Overlap, Van Dijk named Olivier Giroud as his toughest opponent despite having squared off against the likes of Messi, Ronaldo and Haaland.

Olivier Giroud

The Liverpool captain looked back on the Frenchman’s knack for a goal against the Reds before labeling him an “annoying” striker to play against.

Although Messi seems the obvious choice, the fact that Giroud has scored three goals in five games against Van Dijk throughout his career makes him a worthy candidate for his toughest opponent.

فان دايك: استقبلنا هدفًا مخيبًا للآمال أمام مانشستر يونايتد.. وعلينا أن نتكاتف

تحدث فيرجيل فان دايك قائد ليفربول، بعد خسارة فريقه أمام مانشستر يونايتد بهدفين لهدف واحد، على ملعب أنفيلد، في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

وقال فان دايك في تصريحات نشرتها “بي بي سي” البريطانية: “أعتقد أننا استقبلنا هدفًا ثانيًا سيئًا للغاية، بذلنا جهدًا كبيرًا للعودة لأجواء المباراة وخلقنا فرصًا رائعة لتسجيل هدف الفوز، لكن استقبال هدف ثان بهذه الطريقة كان مخيبًا للآمال”.

وأضاف بعد هزيمة ليفربول: “كنا متسرعين للغاية في المباراة، أعتقد أنهم تحلوا بالصبر، لم يضغطوا علينا بقوة، لكنهم لم يسمحوا لنا بالاستحواذ على الكرة، مع ذلك خلقنا العديد من الفرص للتسجيل، لكن الحقيقة هي أننا خسرنا”.

وواصل حول المرحلة المقبلة: “إنه وقت مثير للاهتمام، لأنه يجب علينا أن نتكاتف، ليس فقط كلاعبين بل كناد وجماهير تريد لنا الفوز”.

وعقب فان دايك حول لقطة الهدف الأول لمانشستر يونايتد والإصابة في الرأس لزميله ماك أليستر: “الكرة مرت بعيداً، الضربة الأولى كانت من لاعب يونايتد والثانية مني، لقد اصطدم مرفقي باللاعب وسقط هو وسقطت، كان من الصعب التسجيل ولكنه سجل، لعبنا كثيراً ولكننا لم نسجل”.

وختم فان دايك تصريحاته: “علينا أن نتحلى بالتواضع ونواصل العمل ونحافظ على ثقتنا بأنفسنا قدر الإمكان، عندما تشتد الأمور، من المهم أن نحافظ على روح التضامن والتعاون، ماازال الموسم طويلًا”.

Krunal, Kohli and Salt thrash KKR on opening night of IPL 2025

KKR lost their way after Rahane and Narine’s 103-run partnership for the second wicket

The first IPL after the latest mega auction brings with it much anticipation of new alliances and loyalties. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will be thrilled that their latest acquisitions played an impactful role in their emphatic start to IPL 2025 against defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).Josh Hazlewood used the spongy bounce at Eden Gardens to scuttle KKR’s powerplay and death-overs plans with analysis of 4-0-22-1; Krunal Pandya ended Ajinkya Rahane’s high-intent fifty in a spell of 4-0-29-3; Suyash Sharma salvaged an ordinary night with the massive wicket of Andre Russell; Phil Salt killed the chase with 56 off 31, an identical score to Rahane’s. A regular fixture at RCB, Virat Kohli then sealed the game with 59 off 36 with 22 balls to spare in the chase of 175.Related

Hazlewood: 'This is probably the freshest I've been in a long time'

Krunal: 'If you get hit, you should only get hit on a good ball'

Known for pushing convention, KKR played safe with their captaincy choice post the auction. Rahane the batter will have to allay doubts practically every day, but he got off to a good start as he and Sunil Narine smashed 98 runs in overs four to ten. However, KKR were outplayed pretty much throughout the night outside those seven overs.Hazlewood’s height troubles KKRIt was just two overs at the top but that comprises 10% of the innings in T20s. Hazlewood, unavailable last IPL, was re-acquired by RCB at the auction. Coming off a long injury layoff, he started as if he had never been away: hard length, good pace, extra bounce. He had Quinton de Kock dropped in the first over before getting him two balls later. Then he had Narine swinging and missing through the third over.Ajinkya Rahane injected momentum after KKR’s slow start•Associated Press

Rahane takes off, Narine followsRCB did help Rahane out, but he dispelled some of the doubts around his batting with a high-intent innings even as Narine struggled to come to terms with the uneven bounce on the pitch to start with. RCB kept feeding Rahane straight balls, and Rahane kept picking them up over the leg side: all his first 30 runs came there. Once Narine joined the mayhem, that slow start was forgotten.One of the key moments was Narine going after his former team-mate Suyash, who tends to get the better of batters when they play him as a legspinner. Narine kept going over the off side as 22 came in the ninth over.Krunal leads RCB’s comebackKKR were 107 for 1 in 9.5 overs when Narine tried to crash Rasikh Salam over the off side but was done in by the extra bounce. Struggling for options until that point, RCB could then go back to Krunal as Rahane and Venkatesh Iyer can both be shut down by spin. In each of his three previous overs, Krunal, who used clever changes in pace, picked up a wicket with quicker balls. Rahane holed out to deep midwicket while Venkatesh and Rinku Singh were castled.The wicket of Rinku brought in Russell, cue for RCB to bowl legspin. Russell’s ordinary record against the wrong’un continued as he failed to pick one from Suyash and lost his middle stump. Since 2018, he averages 13.41 and strikes at 123.24 against the wrong’un. That wicket was worth about 40 runs.1:48

Why were RCB spinners successful?

Angkrish Raghuvanshi couldn’t get going as the ball gripped the surface. Hazlewood and Yash Dayal used the middle of the pitch masterfully to concede just 23 in the last four overs.Salt punishes former teamSalt, who played a huge role in KKR’s title run last year with an average of 58.33 and a strike rate of 185.18 in matches in Kolkata, soon reminded KKR they should not have let him go. The first ball of the chase was crashed wide of mid-off for four. The intent never stopped, especially with Kohli turbo-charged during the powerplay too. KKR were forced to bring in Varun Chakravarthy in the fourth over, and Salt took 20 off him. Also, the ball had stopped gripping by then, possibly because of the dew.By the time Varun got the better of Salt, RCB had reached 95 in 8.3 overs. The asking rate had dropped under seven, and Kohli was never going to let such a chase slip. However, what will thrill RCB is that Kohli kept the intent up and sought to get them a big net run-rate boost. He slog-swept Varun for a six in his last over when it would have been easy to just play him out. New captain Rajat Patidar played the perfect little hand at the other end with 34 off 16 as RCB romped home.

فيديو | ماذا قدم محمد صلاح في مباراة ليفربول وبرينتفورد بـ الدوري الإنجليزي؟

شارك نجم فريق ليفربول، محمد صلاح، في مباراة اليوم ضد برينتفورد في خضم منافسات بطولة الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز لكرة القدم، موسم 2025/26.

وحل ليفربول ضيفًا على برينتفورد في ملعب “جتيش كوميونتي ستاديوم” في الجولة التاسعة من الدوري الإنجليزي، حيث خسر حامل اللقب بثلاثة أهداف لهدفين.

وخاض النجم محمد صلاح تلك المباراة حيث لعب كأساسي، ولعبها حتى النهاية وسجل هدفًا.  ملخص لمسات محمد صلاح في مباراة ليفربول وبرينتفورد

وضغط دفاع برينتفورد بنجاح على محمد صلاح واستخلص الكرة من أمامه في الدقيقة التاسعة، خشية أن يقوم المصري بأي هجمة خطيرة داخل المنطقة.

واصطدم محمد صلاح بزميله السابق، حارس مرمى فريق برينتفورد، كيليهر، بعدما حاول ملاحقة الكرة التي مررها ناحيته كودي جاكبو، ولكنه لم يتمكن من السيطرة على نفسه واصطدم بالأيرلندي في الدقيقة العاشرة.

ومرر ميلوس كيركيز الكرة ناحية محمد صلاح في الدقيقة 12 من عمر الشوط نفسه، ولكن دفاع برينتفورد ضغط واستخلص الكرة.

وتواجد محمد صلاح في منطقة جزاء ليفربول، في الدقيقة 30، من أجل المساندة الدفاعية قبل أن يمرر كرة ناحية فلوريان فيرتز، ولكنها طالت على الأخير، لتتحول إلى ضربة مرمى لصالح الخصم.

وكاد محمد صلاح أن يستغل تصرف خاطئ من جانب أحد لاعبي برينتفورد، بعدما مرر الأخير الكرة بشكل غير جيد، ووصلت للمصري ولكنه لم يتعامل معها جيدًا، قبل أن يتدخل حارس المرمى كيليهر ويبعدها، في الدقيقة 50.

وطالت الكرة على محمد صلاح في الدقيقة 55، لتتحول إلى رمية تماس لصالح برينتفورد، وسط ضغط قوي من جانب أصحاب الأرض لتسجيل المزيد، أو على الأقل عدم الاستقبال.
