De acordo com apuração do Lance!, o fato do jogador ter chegado ao Brasil recentemente pode ter pesado na decisão de Abel Ferreira. O atacante assinou contrato nesta semana e fez poucos tempos com o grupo, o que influenciou na escolha.
Com isso, sem “afobação” para testar Lázaro, Abel Ferreira optou por preservá-lo no jogo do Palmeiras contra o Santo André. É possível que o meia-atacante seja relacionado para a partida contra o São Bernardo, na quinta-feira (15).

Lázaro é o quarto reforço do Palmeiras para a temporada. Além dele, chegaram o lateral Caio Paulista, o volante Aníbal Moreno e o atacante Bruno Rodrigues.
O ex-atacante do Flamengo foi contratado por empréstimo junto ao Almería, da Espanha. Ele assinou contrato até o final de 2024, com possibilidade de extensão até a metade do próximo ano. No vínculo, ainda consta uma cláusula de opção de compra, com valor previamente fixado.

Talat scored 32 in 30 balls and took two wickets in the high-stakes game against SL
Danyal Rasool24-Sep-20252:09
Chopra: Talat holding one end up was important
Pakistan allrounder Hussain Talat launched a passionate defence of his utility to his side with the bat, saying there were “only four or five” players who could play T20 cricket in the middle order. Speaking after guiding his side to victory against Sri Lanka in a game where defeat would have put them on the brink of elimination, he called T20I middle order batting “the hardest of skills”.”We keep saying that if we need a middle order player they need to know how to be both aggressive and have the ability to anchor,” Talat said at the press conference after the game. “But the chances of failure with that kind of cricket are high. Unfortunately, if you don’t perform a few games or series, the media and fans immediately go after you and you’re out of the team suddenly.”I think the middle order is the hardest place to play in T20 cricket because you’re required to play all kinds of cricket. And because it’s difficult, I think you should have more chances in that position. And players who can play in the middle order are very rare in Pakistan, perhaps four or five. And even they don’t want to play there.”Perhaps, given the difficult couple of days he – and the rest of the Pakistan middle order have had, that is understandable. On Sunday, Pakistan’s descent from superiority in their clash against India can be traced almost to the moment Talat walked out to the crease in the 11th over. Until then, Pakistan had sped along at nine an over, but when Saim Ayub was dismissed and Talat was surprisingly sent in to bat, all that changed.Talat, who hadn’t played any games in the UAE in the month Pakistan have been here until that day, looked rusty. He scratched around for 11 balls and scored just 10 as India snatched momentum away from Pakistan. Just 38 came in the seven overs that began when Talat walked out to the crease, the lowest for that period of the game all tournament. India would ultimately cruise to victory, with much of Pakistan’s ire directed at Talat and his fellow middle-order batters. It was, Talat said, why he stays away from social media, but admitted it still affected him.Related

On Tuesday, it was a different story. With a match situation more conducive to his abilities, he found his side floundering rather than flourishing, and anchored the chase to ensure they did not let victory slip from their grasp.”We’d lost so no one was feeling good,: Talat said. “The people wanted us to win, and we did what we could against India, too. But there was no extra pressure before today’s game. There was plenty of criticism which we were trying to avoid and which isn’t good for the team. But it was crucial to win today.”In pursuit of 134, that victory looked almost assured when the opened darted to the perfect start, Pakistan helping themselves to 43 in the first five overs. But a two-wicket sixth over from Maheesh Theekshana triggered a collapse where Pakistan lost four wickets for 13 runs, and Sri Lanka were ascendant.”The pitch was a bit sticky, but improved in the second innings,” Talat said. “We lost a few wickets quickly and that put us under a lot of pressure. And then we were running out of batting pairs which required us to take the game deep.”Sri Lanka tightened the screws further when Dushmantha Chameera cleaned up Mohammad Haris as he slogged wildly, reducing Pakistan to 80 for 5, still 54 runs adrift. With the asking rate under control – at exactly six an over, Talat decided to do something not many in the Pakistan camp talk about much these days – batting circumspectly.”In the group, when we talk about batting, it’s always about playing aggressive. But when I went in, a couple of wickets fell. My gut feeling was the only way to win after that was to take the game deep. When Nawaz hit Hasaranga for two fours, he said he’d go for his shots and for me to anchor. And that worked nicely for both of us.”Pakistan saw off the dangerous Theekshana aware that Wanindu Hasaranga, too, would eventually have to bowl out. But when the allrounder came in for his final two over, he went searching desperately, and that opened up scoring options. Nawaz hit him for two fours in his third when he dropped the ball short, and with the target rushing up to meet them, Talat helped himself to two more in Hasaranga’s last to drive the final nail into Sri Lanka’s coffin. In the end, the runs came in a hurry, with Mohammad Nawaz walloping Chameera for three sixes in five balls as Pakistan cantered to the finish in the 18th over.A win can make all the difference, particularly for Talat who has spent far longer out of the side looking in than most in this group. His recent inclusion into the side has only come after more than four years out in the international wilderness, where he feels people haven’t quite appreciated how hard he’s needed to work to scrap his way back in.”We’re hopeful. We’ve been playing T20 cricket for four months or so now, since Bangladesh came to Pakistan in May. Players are being backed in this group; in the past, players used to play a couple of matches and then be omitted. Now they’re getting an extended run like we see elsewhere in international cricket.”We’re two games away from the trophy, and we believe we can win it.”
After a generally productive international break for many of Rangers’ stars, can they bring this form back to Glasgow?
John Souttar, Liam Kelly and Connor Barron were all part of the Scotland squad that remarkably qualified for a first World Cup in 28 years, while Nicolas Raskin started both of Belgium’s matches as they booked their spot in North America, thrashing Liechtenstein in the midfielder’s hometown of Liège.
On Tuesday, striker Bojan Miovski scored his ninth goal for North Macedonia, albeit there was little cause for celebration given that his team were demolished 7-1 by Wales in Cardiff, their heaviest defeat for two and a half years.
While Miovski being back among the goals is undoubtedly good news for Danny Röhl, he does need to improve his performances on the domestic stage.
Rangers' lack of attacking firepower
While many supporters would blame now-dismissed manager Russell Martin’s ineptitude, the club’s poor recruitment over the summer is surely the key factor behind their underwhelming form this season.
This is most abundantly clear in attacking areas where, despite being a goal machine during his two seasons at Aberdeen, Miovski has netted only twice since joining Rangers from Girona for £2.6m in August.
Meantime, Youssef Chermiti has scored only once for the club so far, despite arriving from Everton for £8m, potentially rising to £10m with add-ons, thereby making him the club’s most expensive signing of the post-liquidation era, surpassed only by Tore André Flo’s move in 2000.
This is in complete contrast to last season when Rangers’ top three scorers, namely Cyriel Dessers, Václav Černý and Hamza Igamane, bagged 63 goals between them across all competitions, which represented 55% of all goals the club netted.
With the trio having all departed, new manager Röhl requires the attacking players he has inherited to step up and start contributing, something one “huge talent” in particular is yet to do thus far.
Thelwell signing has been a bigger waste than Chermiti & Miovski
In the summer, Rangers spent around £30m on 13 new recruits, including splashing a reported £5m to sign Thelo Aasgaard from Luton Town.
Upon his arrival, Scottish football analyst Kai Watson labelled him a “technical dribbler” who “loves to take on opponents and get shots away”, while journalist Jamie Allen asserted that he was a “huge talent”.
However, supporters have not seen very much of that thus far, with Aasgaard’s most noteworthy contribution being that red card he received during the League Cup semi-final defeat to Celtic at Hampden.
The table below underlines the fact that Aasgaard has not performed as expected to date. Aasgaard’s statistics are not terrible when compared to his Rangers teammates, ranked second for shots, first in terms of shots on target as well as in the top four when it comes to successful dribbles per 90.

Ultimately, however, he has scored only one for the club to date, on target against Dundee United last month, registering his first assist at Dens last time out, albeit scorer Djeidi Gassama did do most of the work.
This lack of end-product has seen his estimated market value, as recorded by Football Transfers, drop to around £3.4m, well below the fee Rangers paid to sign him.
Meantime, the Merseyside-born winger has been on fire for Norway, scoring four times in 24 minutes as his national team demolished Moldova 11-1 at the Ullevål in September, having marked his international debut with a goal in the reverse fixture in Chișinău back in March.
Thus, with Norway back at the World Cup for the first time since France ’98, Aasgaard will certainly be included in Ståle Solbakken’s squad that travels to North America next summer, but he’ll be desperate to improve his club form before then.
In Glasgow, Aasgaard has started three of Danny Röhl’s six matches in charge, but was introduced off the bench during the last two against Roma and Dundee.
With Röhl having switched to a 3-4-2-1 formation, there is one fewer attacking position up for grabs, and Aasgaard so far is not doing enough to suggest he should be ahead of Gassama, Miovski, Chermiti, Danilo or Mikey Moore in the pecking order.
Considering he cost £5m, surely Sporting Director Kevin Thelwell envisaged that the Norwegian would be a guaranteed starter, but this is certainly not the case. Considering he was a player that Martin pushed to sign, it isn’t ideal when the manager is sacked after just 15 matches in charge.
Thus, while Chermiti and Miovski have established themselves as key figures in Röhl’s team, one could certainly argue that Aasgaard has been the biggest waste of money from last summer.

Arsenal star Gabriel aimed a dig at Richarlison on Instagram after the 4-1 victory against Tottenham Hotspur in Sunday’s North London derby.
The Gunners capitalised on Manchester City’s slip-up at Newcastle United by defeating Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, solidifying their place at the top of the Premier League table by moving six points clear of nearest-rivals Chelsea.
With just under a third of the campaign played, it is still very early days for Mikel Arteta’s side, but they will no doubt be starting to believe they can finally go all the way this season, having finished second for three years on the spin.
After blitzing Spurs at the weekend, the north Londoners are now the joint-highest scorers in the Premier League, while they also have the best defensive record, having shipped just six goals this term, four fewer than any other side.
Gabriel has been key to the solid record at the back, having formed a formidable partnership with William Saliba, although the centre-back was forced to miss the North London derby after suffering a hamstring injury on international duty with Brazil.
Gabriel takes swipe at Richarlison on Instagram
Despite recently linking up with Richarlison on international duty, with Brazil suffering a 3-2 defeat against Japan, before going on to defeat Senegal 2-1, Gabriel couldn’t resist having a dig at the striker, tagging him in his celebratory Instagram post after the match.
Although the defender was ruled out for Sunday’s game, he had a dig at his compatriot, who was arguably one of Spurs’ better performers, having scored their only goal of the game, catching out David Raya with a strike from distance.
However, that long-range effort was the centre-forward’s only major contribution, having struggled to make an impact on proceedings, completing just five of the ten passes he attempted throughout the match.
Piero Hincapie, on the other hand, looked solid in Gabriel’s absence, making four clearances, one interception and one tackle to keep Spurs at bay, with the visitors being limited to very few chances.
Arteta will no doubt be hoping to have the Brazil international back soon, having recently said: “It’s clearly a blow. It’s our leader in our backline. To miss him is never a positive thing. The good thing is we have some very good options. They need to stand up now.”
However, having recruited well in the summer, signing Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera to bolster squad depth, Arsenal should fancy their chances heading into a congested run of fixtures.

أكد آرني سلوت، مدرب نادي ليفربول، أن مواجهة فريقه أمام بي إس في آيندهوفن، هي فرصة جيدة للريدز لإظهار ردة فعل اليوم، محملًا في الوقت ذاته مسؤولية نتائج النادي الإنجليزي السيئة هذا الموسم.
ليفربول سوف يستضيف مساء اليوم الأربعاء آيندهوفن، ضمن الجولة الخامسة من مرحلة الدوري في بطولة دوري أبطال أوروبا.
ويسعى ليفربول للظهور بشكل مختلف في لقاء اليوم وتحقيق الانتصار، عقب السقوط أمام نوتينجهام فورست يوم السبت والخسارة 3-0 بالدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.
ويتعرض ليفربول إلى انتقادات لاذعة مع سوء نتائج ومستوى الفريق، لكن سلوت وعد أن يغير وضع الريدز الحالي.
وقال سلوت لموقع ليفربول الرسمي: “عادةً ما أقول بعد الهزيمة إن المباراة التالية فرصة للرد، هذا صحيح تمامًا في هذه الحالة، ليفربول ليس ناديًا تصبح فيه الخسارة أمرًا طبيعيًا بأي حال من الأحوال، ما يعني أن الخيار الوحيد المتاح لنا هو الرد بالطريقة الصحيحة”.
وأضاف: ”أوضح طريقة لشرح معنى هذا عمليًا هي أن يبذل كل منا قصارى جهده لتحقيق النتيجة الإيجابية التي نحتاجها، هذا هو الحد الأدنى المطلوب، ليس فقط الليلة بل في كل مباراة نخوضها”.
وأوضح سلوت: ”يوم السبت، لم نلعب المعايير التي وضعناها لأنفسنا وهذا واضح، قلت لاحقًا إنه في ظل هذه الظروف ساندنا الجمهور بطريقة ربما لا تحدث في أندية أخرى، لكن هذا ليس أمرًا مفروغًا منه”.
وأردف: “مرة أخرى، يقع على عاتقنا تهيئة الظروف للدعم الإيجابي من خلال تقديم كرة قدم جيدة والتنافس في جميع الأوقات، وإظهار الروح المعنوية التي تشتهر بها فرق ليفربول، هذه مسؤولية يجب أن نتحملها جميعًا لأننا نعلم من التجربة مدى إيجابية الوضع في مثل هذه الظروف”.
وتابع سلوت متحدثًا عن الخسارة ضد نوتينجهام: “يجب أن أؤكد أن النصف ساعة الأولى من مباراة السبت كانت أكثر انسجامًا مع هذه المعايير مما هو معترف به”.
وواصل: “كنا الفريق المسيطر في تلك الفترة ضد نوتينجهام لكننا لم نحقق ما كنا نتمناه، وبينما أكون أول من يعترف بأن ما حدث بعد ذلك لم يكن جيدًا بما يكفي، يجب ألا نتجاهل جوانب لعبنا التي كانت أقرب إلى ما كنا نتوقعه”.
واستكمل: ” إنه مزيج من هذه المعرفة،وما رأيناه من هذا الفريق سابقًا ، وإن لم يكن كافيًا مؤخرًا ، وما نعرفه عن جودة لاعبي فريقنا، وهذا ما يمنحنا الثقة بأن التحسن سيأتي إذا تماسكنا وواصلنا العمل بأقصى جهد ممكن”.
وقال: “الليلة، علينا أن نفعل ذلك في مسابقة مختلفة ضد خصم أعرفه جيدًا بالطبع، يتصدر آيندهوفن الدوري وفاز بالمسابقة في الموسمين الماضيين على التوالي، لذا فإن تاريخه يتحدث عن نفسه، مع بيتر بوس، لديهم أيضًا مدرب يحظى باحترام كبير، ليس فقط في هولندا بل في عالم كرة القدم بشكل عام”.
أضاف: ” أود أن أرحب ببيتر وجهازه الفني ولاعبي وإداريي وجماهير آيندهوفن في ملعب أنفيلد لحضور هذه المباراة، التقينا في هولندا الموسم الماضي، بالطبع في مباراة فاز بها ايندهوفن بنتيجة 3-2، لذا من الجيد أن تتاح لنا فرصة مواجهتهم مجددًا ونأمل أن نحقق نتيجة أفضل هذه المرة”.

وأوضح: “أجرينا العديد من التغييرات في تلك المباراة، بالطبع لأننا كنا قد تأهلنا بالفعل إلى الدور التالي من دوري أبطال أوروبا بحلول ذلك الوقت، لكن هذا لا يعني أننا لا ندرك إمكانيات ايندهوفن وتحدياته”.
وأردف سلوت: “آيندهوفن فريق قوي جدًا ويضم لاعبين ممتازين، يكفي أن ننظر إلى فوزهم الأخير على نابولي لنرى ذلك، مما يجعل هذه المباراة فرصة لإظهار أفضل ما لدينا”.
تابع: “لقد قلت سابقًا وكذلك بعد مباراة السبت، إنني ممتن جدًا لوقوف جماهيرنا إلى جانبنا بهذه الطريقة، وأود أن أضيف أن هذا يعزز رغبتي في تقديم كرة قدم مثالية وتحقيق النتائج التي تستحقونها”.
وواصل: “لقد تمكنا من تحقيق ذلك في الموسم الماضي وفي بداية هذا الموسم، لكننا مؤخرًا لم نحقق هذا الهدف، أتحمل مسؤولية هذا الأمر وسأظل دائمًا على نفس النهج”.
واختتم سلوت في حديثه: ”علينا أن نغير مجرى الأمور لصالح جماهيرنا وأنفسنا، والليلة ستكون فرصة مناسبة للبدء في ذلك”.
