As atividades do Grêmio nesta quarta-feira (19), no CT Luiz Carvalho, tiveram uma baixa considerável dentre os atletas considerados como titulares pelo técnico Renato Portaluppi: o meio-campista Villasanti.
Reclamando de dores musculares, o paraguaio sequer foi ao gramado, fazendo apenas alguns trabalhos na parte da academia em tom de preservação.

Apesar de habitualmente problemas musculares terem maior grau não apenas de complexidade, mas também no tempo de recuperação, a situação, pelo menos neste momento, não preocupa pensando no próximo desafio do Tricolor na temporada.
O Imortal, aliás, tem a promessa de uma sequência difícil nas próximas semanas pensando no fato de ser um dos perseguidores do Botafogo no Campeonato Brasileiro e brigar por vaga na decisão da Copa do Brasil.
Enquanto nos pontos corridos o time enfrenta o Atlético-MG, no próximo sábado (22), às 21h (de Brasília), na competição eliminatória o oponente será o Flamengo, na quarta-feira (26), às 21h30. Ambos os compromissos acontecerão na Arena.
Williams and Welch scored half-centuries for the visitors, but they lost their last five wickets for 27 runs

It was Taijul Islam’s 16th Test five-for, as he finished day one with 5 for 60•AFP/Getty Images
Taijul Islam sparked Zimbabwe’s batting collapse on the first day of the second Test between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, in Chattogram. He took the 16th five-wicket haul of his career, finishing the day with 5 for 60. The visitors were steadily batting at 200 for 4 at one stage, before Taijul got into the act with three quick wickets and a run-out. Zimbabwe eventually finished day one on 227 for 9, a far cry from how positively they had started their innings.Sean Williams top-scored with 67, while Nick Welch got 54, before cramps on his hands forced him off the field shortly after tea. Welch was Taijul’s fifth wicket. Meanwhile, Nayeem Hasan picked up two wickets, and debutant Tanzim Hasan took one.Zimbabwe began brightly, with Brian Bennett striking five boundaries in the first ten overs. He was lucky with the first one, but it was followed by a scrumptious straight drive, and his trademark cover drive. But once again, Bennett got caught behind trying to drive on the up to give Tanzim his first Test wicket.Bangladesh could have had their second in a short span, but Shadman Islam dropped a sitter to give Welch a life in the 14th over. At that time, Welch was on 1. Shortly afterwards, Ben Curran and Welch went on a six-hitting spree. Curran slammed Mehidy Hasan Miraz over midwicket before Welch stunned Tanzim with a pull that produced a sweet sound off the bat. Welch followed it up with a slog-swept six against Mehidy in the following over.Taijul removed Curran shortly afterwards, getting him to inside edge the ball on to his leg stump for 21 off 50 balls. But Zimbabwe consolidated by not losing a single wicket in the second session. Welch, who had struck a few boundaries in the morning, was more circumspect in the afternoon, adding just 22 runs in 77 balls after lunch. Williams, though, dominated their third-wicket partnership, hitting six fours during this time at the crease.Nick Welch and Sean Williams put together a solid partnership for the third wicket•AFP/Getty Images
Williams struck the ball sweetly through the covers for two boundaries, apart from two more through point, and on the leg side each. His only six came against Mehidy, as he skipped down the wicket to deposit him over long-on.Williams and Welch got into a mix-up once in the 33rd over, but Bangladesh messed up the chance with poor communication among themselves. First, the point fielder threw at the wrong end. Wicketkeeper Jaker Ali, to whom the throw went, in turn threw poorly towards the non-striker’s end while Williams struggled to get back. Zimbabwe’s only worry towards the end of the second session was Williams and Welch both suffering cramps. Williams needed attention on his calf and hamstring, while Welch’s hands were cramping up.Welch, however, didn’t last long after tea, when he walked off with cramps after just playing one ball. Nayeem then got into the act, removing the Zimbabwe captain Craig Ervine for 5. Williams was next to go, Tanzim taking the catch brilliantly at backward square leg. He struck a six and seven fours in his patient 67 off 166 balls.Bangladesh conceded just 18 runs in the first 16 overs of the final session, before Wessly Madhevere struck a couple of boundaries against Nayeem. Taijul, however, removed Madhevere with a beautiful delivery that spun slightly away, and dismissed him for 15.Taijul continued Zimbabwe’s collapse with the wickets of Wellington Masakadza and Richard Ngarava in the first over with the second new ball. Tafadzwa Tsiga was run-out after falling way short of the crease at the non-striker’s end, before Welch returned to the crease to continue his innings. It didn’t last long, though, as Taijul bowled him to complete his five-for.
Newcastle United’s Premier League campaign has started with more frustration than fluidity.
A goalless draw with Aston Villa on opening day saw Eddie Howe’s side look the more dangerous outfit, but they lacked the cutting edge to secure three points.
Stalemates against Leeds and Bournemouth then further highlighted the side’s lack of rhythm in the final third. Against Leeds, Newcastle were wasteful despite moments of control, and at Bournemouth, Howe’s decision to trial a more defensive 3-4-2-1 setup blunted their attacking potential even further.
The Magpies have generated just 4.6 expected goals (xG) across their first five league fixtures – a figure better only than the three promoted sides, Wolves, and Aston Villa.
The midweek 4-1 win against Bradford City in the Carabao Cup was a welcome tonic, with a strong XI fielded to sharpen patterns in attack.
Yet with a Champions League trip to Royale Union Saint-Gilloise before facing Arsenal on Sunday, Howe must find a way to get more out of his new-look attack.
The question is whether his summer signing in attack, Nick Woltemade, can be trusted to lead the line consistently so early in his Premier League career.
Why Woltemade needs time to adapt
Newcastle made a statement when they secured Nick Woltemade this summer, fending off Bayern Munich, who had three bids rejected for the striker.
Standing at 1.98m and fresh from a 12-goal Bundesliga season with Werder Bremen, Woltemade brings a blend of aerial presence and technical quality.
He also impressed for Germany at the U21 Euros and earned senior caps in recent international fixtures, including an assist in the 3-1 victory over Northern Ireland.
He introduced himself to the St James’ Park crowd with a debut goal against Wolves, but his performances have shown the reality of adapting to English football.
In the Bundesliga last season, Woltemade was involved in 14 goals across 28 matches, averaging 4.38 shot-creating actions per 90, per FBref.
His ability to progress the ball is also evident, carrying it forward 26 times per 90 minutes and adding 2.89 progressive passes, per FBref.
These numbers highlight a striker who is comfortable linking play rather than just finishing chances. Yet so far in England, those qualities have been less visible.
He also contributes defensively, averaging 0.56 tackles and 1.28 blocks per 90 last season, which shows that he is willing to press. However, Howe will be aware that a club-record signing will be judged primarily on goals, and right now, Woltemade still looks like a player learning the rhythm and relentlessness of the Premier League.
Patience is needed, but Newcastle may not be able to wait if they want results quickly.
Osula can be the difference for Newcastle
That’s where William Osula comes in.
The 22-year-old striker, signed from Sheffield United for £15m, has flown somewhat under the radar since his arrival.
He made 25 appearances across all competitions, scoring five and assisting twice, but crucially showed signs of being the “natural #9” that Newcastle desperately need, as described by U23 scout Antonio Mango.
Osula was nearly allowed to leave on deadline day, with Frankfurt circling, but Newcastle pulled the plug following Yoane Wissa’s injury on international duty. It already looks a shrewd decision.
The Dane scored his first Premier League goal last season against Ipswich last season, and this campaign has already opened his account with a strike in the loss to Liverpool. Midweek against Bradford, he made a statement.

This was a centre-forward performance full of hunger, sharpness, and clinical finishing – precisely what Newcastle have lacked in their league fixtures.
His pressing from the front also allowed the midfield to play higher up, easing pressure on the defence. For a side starved of attacking fluency, Osula represents the kind of direct, instinctive forward who can turn half-chances into goals.
Newcastle striker William Osula
A partnership potential with Woltemade, once the German fully settles, could give Newcastle multiple tactical options.
One towering, playmaking striker alongside a more mobile, poacher-type forward. With tough opponents on the horizon, Howe must balance pragmatism with ambition.

Yet if Newcastle truly want to ignite their season, unleashing Osula more consistently might be the spark that transforms their attack.
O Palmeiras teve uma grande atuação diante do Atlético-MG, na quarta-feira (2), no Mineirão, e saiu na frente no confronto de oitavas de final da Libertadores. O placar de 1 a 0, com gol de Raphael Veiga, mostra que o Verdão ativou o “modo competição” e se credencia novamente como um dos favoritos a conquistar a Glória Eterna. Se o nível ainda não é aquele que já vimos, a competitividade está aí, totalmente de volta.

Quem viu o primeiro tempo do jogo, pode ter achado que o Verdão era o mandante e o Galo era o visitante. Enquanto o time de Abel Ferreira controlava praticamente todas as ações, tinha liberdade e empurrava o adversário, a equipe de Felipão se retraía, não conseguia levar perigo ao gol de Weverton e ainda passou sufoco.

Não é exagero dizer que se o Palmeiras estivesse em seus melhores dias, a partida teria ido para o intervalo com 3 a 0 no placar. Ou seja, os mineiros ficaram no lucro com “apenas” o gol de Veiga. Se há algo a dizer sobre a atuação alviverde, é exatamente o desperdício das oportunidades. Era a chance de voltar para São Paulo com a classificação praticamente definida.

É verdade que no segundo tempo o Atlético-MG voltou diferente, precisava ir para cima e acabou acuando o Verdão em sua defesa. No entanto, foram raras as chances do Galo. Weverton teve um susto, mas agarrou sem problemas. De resto, apenas um cabeceio de Pedrinho, já no fim da partida, um pouco depois de Jhon Jhon acertar a trave em cobrança de falta. Em resumo, os comandados do Abel administraram o jogo.

Nada mais “Palmeiras de Abel” do que dar a impressão ao adversário de que é ele que está no controle, quando na verdade é o Palmeiras que está determinando como a partida vai ser. Essa frieza de calcular as ações do Atlético-MG é uma amostra de que os bons momentos estão voltando e de que a má fase está, de fato, ficando para trás. E isso tudo está acontecendo na hora certa, na hora do mata-mata.

Alguns jogadores como Dudu, Rony e Artur ainda não estão na melhor forma técnica, mas com o crescimento do time, certamente acompanharão em breve. Se eles estivessem um pouco melhores, a delegação alviverde deixaria Belo Horizonte com a vaga na mão. Como ainda não estão no nível esperado, e como o próprio time ainda não está onde pode estar, a decisão ficará para o Allianz Parque. No entanto, se repetir a atuação do Mineirão, a torcida palmeirense terá motivos para comemorar. Mais do que isso, terá motivos para acreditar no tetra da Libertadores.

In the absence of Stoinis and Inglis, PBKS might turn to new recruits Mitch Owen and Kyle Jamieson

Moody expects PBKS to pick Owen vs RR
Big PictureRicky Ponting knows the challenge of navigating a disrupted season. In 2021, when he was with Delhi Capitals (DC), he coached them to a top-of-the-table finish before a Covid-induced mid-season pause. When the IPL resumed at the time, DC maintained the momentum to finish in the top two only to stumble in the playoffs.Now with Punjab Kings (PBKS) in IPL 2025, Ponting has a familiar task: keeping a playoffs-bound team on track. PBKS, who are aiming for a top-two finish for the first time since 2014, currently sit on 15 points with three games left in the league stage. Two wins will guarantee qualification; they may sneak through with one, with help from other results. The abandoned game in Dharamsala against DC being replayed gives them a vital extra shot.However, it hasn’t been smooth sailing for PBKS. Two key overseas players, Josh Inglis and Marcus Stoinis haven’t returned, forcing changes in team balance. Mitchell Owen, a BBL standout known for his exploits as an opener, could debut in the middle order, given how well Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have clicked at the top.While PBKS will chase a top-two finish, Rajasthan Royals (RR) are fighting to avoid the wooden spoon. With just three wins from 12 games, their playoff hopes are long gone, and the focus has now shifted to salvaging pride and shaping the future.Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the 14-year-old who lit up the league with a 35-ball century against Gujarat Titans last month, offers hope for the future. Riyan Parag, who had earlier stood in as captain for Sanju Samson, also showed signs of resurgence, smashing 95 in his previous innings, at Eden Gardens, as RR almost chased down 207.The batting has found some rhythm, but the bowling continues to flounder for RR. Injuries to Sandeep Sharma and the absence of Jofra Archer have left their pace attack short on quality and confidence. For context, Royals have the worst average (52.1) for a pace attack this season.Form guideRajasthan Royals: LLWLL (last five completed matches, most recent first) Punjab Kings: WWLWWIn the spotlight: Sanju Samson, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran SinghSanju Samson has cleared hit fitness test after a three-week absence due to a side strain. In his absence, young Suryavanshi impressed at the top with 155 runs in five innings at a strike rate of 209.45. With Yashasvi Jaiswal also back in form after a middling start to the season – he has hit four half-centuries in his last seven innings – Samson will probably have to slot in at No. 3.Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya have been key to PBKS’ success, consistently setting the tone in the powerplay. Their 534-run aggregate is the second highest this season, behind only Shubman Gill and B Sai Sudharsan (634). When either scores 45 or more, PBKS have won five games (plus two no results); when neither does, they’ve lost all three.4:33
What went wrong for Rajasthan Royals this season?

Since it’s a 3.30pm start, dew is unlikely to be a factor.Stats and TriviaYashasvi Jaiswal (19) and Priyansh Arya (16) have hit the most sixes in the powerplay this season. Meanwhile, Parag’s 12 sixes are the most by a batter in his first 10 balls.Arya’s strike rate of 189 is the highest in the powerplay among batters who’ve faced at least 100 balls.Despite playing two seasoned overseas spinners in Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana, RR have one of the highest economy rates among teams at 9.3 and an average of 37.40.RR have won only one out of eight matches chasing so far this season.PBKS have the second-highest powerplay run rate (10.4) this season.
O gol, emoção máxima do jogo de futebol, muda o cenário de qualquer partida, independentemente do momento em que foi marcado. Mas é consenso que balançar as redes no início de uma partida condiciona todo do desenrolar do jogo. Alguns jogadores, no entanto, levam a ideia de marcar um gol logo no começo às últimas consequências, a ponto de marcar os gols mais rápidos da história do futebol.

É o caso de Marc Burrows, o jogador amador inglês a quem é atribuído o feito do gol mais rápido da história. Em 2004, durante um confronto entre Cowes Sports e Eastleigh Reserves, Burrows surpreendeu o mundo do futebol marcando um gol do meio-campo, exatos 2,56 segundos após o apito inicial. Este feito notável foi reconhecido pelo Guinness World Records.
Burrows, no entanto, não era um jogador profissional, muito menos de destaque, tendo este gol como único grande momento da curta carreira. O inglês faleceu em 2009, aos 30 anos, vítima de um câncer.

Além de Burrows, outros gols também merecem menção: Nawaf Al Abed, em 2009, assinalou um gol em pouco mais de 2 segundos durante uma partida da Liga Profissional Saudita. Em 1995, Damian Mori conseguiu um feito semelhante, marcando um gol em apenas 3 segundos.
Em categorias inferiores, jovens também registraram gols em pouquissimo tempo. O uruguaio Ricardo Oliveira, por exemplo, marcou um gol aos 2,8 segundos em 1998. O brasileiro Fred, ídolo do Fluminense e jogador conhecido do futebol brasileiro, teve seu primeiro momento de destaque durante Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior em 2003, também após marcar um gol em apenas 3 segundos. À época, defendia o América-MG.

Embora esses casos sejam oficialmente reconhecidos, é importante mencionar que relatos de gols igualmente rápidos, não oficialmente registrados, continuam a circular no futebol, especialmente em categorias de base e no futebol amador.

West Ham manager Nuno Espírito Santo’s arrival is already beginning to spark a plethora of rumours, with his new squad expected to be reshaped over these coming months.
Nuno Espírito Santo given full West Ham backing with Arsenal next
Premier League title-chasing Arsenal await West Ham next after Nuno oversaw a 1-1 draw against Everton on Merseyside.
The Portuguese saw glimpses of the defensive frailties which have cost West Ham time and time again this season, with Konstantinos Mavropanos leaving Michael Keane in acres for Everton’s opening goal at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Having conceded more goals than any other side in the Premier League so far, with seven of them coming directly from corners, Nuno knows exactly what he has to fix if the Hammers stand any chance of pushing themselves away from the relegation zone.
Unfortunately for them, Arsenal’s well-documented major threat from set pieces since the beginning of last season is a real worry for Nuno’s side, and becoming more robust at dealing with dead balls will undoubtedly be key in thwarting Mikel Arteta’s side.
On a more positive note, Nuno’s pragmatic style not only solidified Nottingham Forest’s own defensive weaknesses, but also catapulted them up the table and back into Europe for the first time since the 1990s.
If it wasn’t for a public fallout with Evangelos Marinakis, Nuno would still be at the City Ground right now, so it is clear as day why Karren Brady pushed West Ham to appoint Nuno and convinced the board to hand him a long-term three-year deal, according to talkSPORT’s Alex Crook.
According to recent reports, West Ham are already planning to back Nuno with signings in January, so the Hammers appear to be fully convinced that Nuno is the right man to step into Graham Potter’s shoes.
The former Tottenham and Wolves boss has already stamped his authority on the team by dropping previously key players — omitting midfielder James Ward-Prowse from the Everton matchday squad in what was a bold move.
Since the 30-year-old’s axe, it has been reported that Ward-Prowse has been told he can leave West Ham in January.
James Ward-Prowse tipped to leave West Ham and re-join Southampton
Journalist Dean Jones, speaking to TEAMtalk, has shared an update on the Englishman’s future.
The reporter claims that Ward-Prowse is indeed resigned to leaving West Ham early next year, and he could even re-join former club Southampton.
Ward-Prowse had been a starter for Potter, but under Nuno, history is repeating itself, as the 51-year-old also cut short his Forest loan spell when he briefly spent time there last season.
Signed largely for his threat from set-pieces by David Moyes, Ward-Prowse is apparently just one free-kick goal off equalling David Beckham’s Premier League record of 18, but it is unlikely he’ll get to achieve that landmark in Claret and Blue.
Pundit Alan Shearer praised the “world-class” Ward-Prowse for his form immediately after arriving at West Ham, but things can change very quickly in football.
O confronto entre Flamengo e Bahia gerou polêmicas. Na segunda derrota de Rogério Ceni em três partidas no comando do Tricolor de Aço, sua equipe teve um jogador expulso nos minutos iniciais do segundo tempo, o que “interferiu diretamente no resultado” segundo o técnico. Ainda, o gol da vitória do Rubro-Negro no Maracanã foi marcado por Pedro, de pênalti. Ceni entendeu que a marcação da penalidade foi um lance interpretativo.

– Foi o lance principal do jogo, nos deixa com um jogador a menos, nos tira a possibilidade de estar mais próximo do gol. Acho que houve um erro grotesco nesse sentido.
Na jogada em que o árbitro Sávio Pereira Sampaio assinalou pênalti para o Flamengo, aos 14 minutos do segundo tempo, Bruno Henrique foi derrubado por Gilberto dentro da área, e o VAR não chamou o juiz para a revisão. A marcação da penalidade gerou bastante reclamação dos tricolores. Para Ceni, o lance foi interpretativo.
– O pênalti foi muito interpretativo. Eu vejo um toque muito sutil, mas não vou entrar nessa discussão. O da expulsão é um lance claro de um jogador que vai para fora e não para a direção do gol. Acho que o árbitro, o conjunto VAR e árbitro, interfere direto no resultado – concluiu o treinador.
