Setubal beat Belenenses in Victory by 2-0

The triumph achieved in the Bonfim Stadium, thanks to trim the defense certeiros Anderson, to 44 minutes, and the average Elias, to 92, withdrew sadinos of "dangerous places" and exacerbated the crisis over Belenenses, after a game ruled by the balance, but always with a slight upward of Setubal.

Even without can create great opportunities for goal, players of Vitoria Setubal were always the fastest on the ball and tried to advance more danger with the goal opponent.

In a divided field with the first part, the Tottenham could have just marked the two minutes following a free entry to the vast area sadina, but the upshot of Jose Carlos left on the side of the goal post left by Pedro Alves.

The team sadina responded with the goal at the end of the first part, benefiting from a punch line of beautiful effect of Anderson, one of the best players on the field, which gave expression to the superiority evidenced by the mid-field and the Victory of the advanced Setúbal as a result of a free.

The losing by 1-0 to break, the coach of Belenenses, Jaime Pacheco, tried to turn the result in step complementary, with the entry of John Paul to the post of Candido Costa for 46 minutes.

TT-Miguel Barbosa fora do Dakar 2009

Barbosa, who participated in the Lisbon-Dakar in 2006 and 2007, said that the "consequences of the financial crisis" and the fact that the competition takes place in Argentina difficult to obtain sponsors.

"We feel great difficulty in getting support and we had to abdicate. I am very sorry because it will be a great trial," he said.

Paulo Bento with the right questions

Mourinho will give this Wednesday a giant step in the history of Chelsea, Barcelona and was the winning pass to lead the Group C of the Champions League. But the absences in defense undertake the success of the mission leonina.

Without Tonel available to deal with the Catalans, he was in the meeting of Catalonia, Abel out with a muscle injury, as Pedro Silva, the two sides rights, and with March Caneira in doubt, Mourinho may have to present a defense in Anderson Polga that only holds indisputable, which complicates the task to the lions.

Despite Leandro Grimi Tuesday was yesterday given as suitable for training, come to a stop for almost two weeks, which advises prudence in its integration. Added to this factor, Marco Caneira is still in doubt, because yesterday trained, but without medical supervision.

Thus, Mourinho will face the match without a side right from scratch. The choices are two: Pereirinha adjust the position or where March recover Caneira, use it in place.

In the latter scenario, Leandro Grimi will be the left side, as it will be very difficult Ronny option.

There are doubts, too, in the middle field. With Rochemback out, as Vukcevic, Izmailov has not yet been fully confirmed. The Russian trained yesterday so constrained due to an injury in tibiotarsus left, and today only know that if he is able.

If you are in a position to act, the Russian diamond the usual form in recent games with Miguel Veloso, Joao Moutinho and Leandro Romagnoli.

In front, the technician must maintain the commitment that has been the most constant in the games at home. Thus, next to Derlis should act Helder Postiga, Derlis staying on the bench of alternates.

In another context, the situation of Simon Vukčević later this week could be addressed directly by the player and technical unfair.

The intention of the Montenegrin is talking with the coach and sporting director Pedro Barbosa to in some way, trying to solve, once and for all, the bad environment created around them.

The average attacker wants to try a last grab an unfair opportunity in the group and that is what do you want to feel the Mourinho, but their situation is not the most comfortable, mostly because of the behavior displayed in recent months. And will need a radical change of attitude so that Vukcevic re-enter the plans of coach.

Fenerbahçe, a psychological case PLAYERS receive treatment

Adensam is concern in the Turkish side. The internal campaign is worrying, the doors are European and semicerradas Aragonés can not dispel the scene of injury. Senturk S. and Roberto Carlos are low almost certain to play tonight, but the players are receiving psychological treatment.

Those in power would pass the message that we must revive the mentality that brought the Fenerbahçe far in the latest edition of Champions and give an example: the elimination of Seville "eighths."

The whole Turkish won at home by 3-2, but in Andalusia had to recover from disadvantages of 0-2 and 1-3, taking the game to penalty, which Demirel resolved. The squad is being bombarded with evocations of that glorious epic, so as to leave infected by the spirit of conquest and reacting to adversity before the FC Porto.

We do not know if the speech Aragonés before the journalists was part of the staging, but he was a Spaniard with the siren song of the dragon. "It's a team that has been European champion and has an excellent counter-attack, a counter-attack extraordinary," praised, denouncing intentions. "We mark the beginning, we demand of the goal. If we do not succeed, we know the danger we face in the face of extraordinary counter-attack of FC Porto, "insisted.

Very pressured by the local press, Aragonés rejected the idea of a bad option to sign for Fenerbahçe. "I had other opportunities for my career but I am very happy here. It is a shame not speak Turkish better, but it is very difficult, "said the technician who does not, for everything, the translator.

Deivid earned tug of ears

Deivid missed the first two months of competition and therefore may be less attentive to the reality of Fenerbahçe. Certain is that not escaped the censure of the coach.

"We are creating opportunities, but not taken place," said the former Sporting, corrected by Aragonés: "We have the second best attack of the championship, only the Galatasaray brand more than us."

As for dragons, who has scored in the past, the art has left a promise: "We're going over them. It is mandatory to win. "

14 disbelieve by Benfica

Italy, Spain, England, Germany, and some Portuguese clubs, left behind when, at the end of last season, Rui Costa showed interest in the Ruben Amorim hire him.

From that moment, the heart of benfiquista average, which showed the first goal Sunday front of the Academic, spoke louder and the doubts were shattered.

"We had 14 proposals from those countries by Ruben last summer, but he chose Liverpool. It was there that I wanted to play, "recalls the entrepreneur Carlos Goncalves, for whom the average person is a" very balanced, but also fun and, above all, a friend. "

The player "until it is good for more," Facing the brother, Mauro, who was responsible for one of the early career of Amorim, where did that leave the average behind the roller hockey and the post of goalkeeper to join the eldest of the children's Benfica.

In kids passed the time "when the war" and, now, look at Mauro's career benfiquista with pride. And no surprise: "There is no kid, has more than 100 games in the league [103, NDR]."

A goal of Anderson and another from Elias put an end to a cycle of four consecutive defeats of the V. Setubal. The triumph ahead of Belenenses also served to hold the technical Daute Fakir in Bonfim, while Jaime Pacheco lost yesterday for the first time since it came to Restelo, a good starting place and with some emotion. In minute 17, for example, Bruno Gama took a rebound to desferir, into the area, a strong punch line that collided with bang on the bar.

By the interval, the sadinos were always the team that created more dynamic and better opportunities. After a notice of Laionel (40 '), with the punch line out close to the right post, the Setubalense reached the deserved goal. The Brazilian Anderson scored a direct free in the right flank. The ball took effect capricious and surprised the defense and goalkeeper Julio Cesar, without entering the goal to have any deviation.

The second half brought a Belenenses more ambitious, but nonetheless more enlightened. The game has become uncharacteristic, with more failures and faults, succeeding is sampling of yellow cards (seven) from Duarte Gomes.

Given what was happening in the field, Daute Fakir breathed in relief when Ze Pedro missed a free entry to the same area. Elias was more effective. Took a bad pass from Silas, Anderson hit on race and threw, rasteiro to the bottom of the networks.

Spain ignores Portugal in organizing the World

"A main objective is to bring to Spain a final phase of a World Cup, which may be to 2018. If we are united, the whole of Spanish society united, our application will be invincible." Miguel Angel Villar, in his speech reelection as chairman of the Royal Spanish Football Federation, took publicly that Spain wants the organization of the World 2018, the same dream that is doing Gilberto Madail, president of the Portuguese Federation, since last year.

But yesterday, when Villar, the only candidate, said his stay for another term as president of the RFEF, a position he occupied for 20 years, "forgot 'to Portugal. At least, during the speech, no word "directed" to his Portuguese counterpart, not realizing it, because if the possible candidacy to the World Cup 2018 (goal you set as a major) comprises Australia or not: "The first thing I do is contact the Secretary of State for Sport to talk about the future of Spanish football and this candidacy, he has always supported. Then see if a joint or not. "

The DN attempted a reaction to the omission of the FPF Angel Villar, but without success. Gilberto Madail just last week, before the Brazil-Portugal, has admitted that exchanged information with the Spanish Federation regarding the joint candidacy.

Despite missing a few days for the game with Fenerbahçe (Tuesday, at 19.45 hours), in Turkey, there are some hopes for the recovery of the player in time, but everything depends on the response to treatment.

Vukcevic fined and rejected the group's leonine

Montenegrin player was informed before the training that would not work with the group. Leaders of DSS met with the player in the Academy and notified him that was the subject of disciplinary proceedings for having missed the session on Sunday without permission

Vukcevic fined and rejected the group's leonine
Sporting Vukcevic and extreme positions. The player was unable to train yesterday, the subject of disciplinary proceedings for failing to training without authorization (Sunday), fined and away from the working group. The desire to leave in December is getting closer to being realized, since as the DN moved on Sunday, the Montenegrin hardly return to the heart of a lion playing this season. The loan by the end of the season can be immediate solution, if there are no proposals for a permanent transfer.

The footballer, according to DN sport learned from sources close to the player, there remain the entire season without playing, because it believes that Chelsea will not let out and you know that Mourinho does not count more with him.

According to the club, "the player was informed of the disciplinary action that will be implemented by the DSS substantiated in fines and make up individualized training information to the contrary." The value of the fine Vukcevic not yet been revealed, but the maximum that the club you can charge is EUR 4500 (a tenth of the salary, according to the code of conduct that players signed at the start of the season).

The Montenegrin, knows the DN sport, I rode the train to the group in some sessions, but that was part of the plan-specific training. Now the number 10 from Sporting going to train alone and hours different from the rest of the group. This is not to create embarrassment for the team and to colleagues. The punishment may last a week or a month, depending on the conclusion of disciplinary proceedings.

The DSS leonina when handed the case to the legal department knew that the case could have more serious implications. The player is repeated disregard for the norms of the group and therefore the implications may be more serious. The club can come to the conclusion that Vukcevic is to devalue the asset itself as Sporting, to force the exit, and then the penalty is one month's salary (45 thousand euros).

"It is adivinhava this situation with Vukcevic. Obviously he has a friction with the coach, and that is what has caused the recent events. In a normal situation, this would not have happened," said the owner of the medium, Stojadinovic the TSF .

An official of the Montenegrin further explains that "a player who has to travel Sunday to Montenegro, must do so in the morning, you can not train. The most logical and normal would be the coach let him go. I told him I did not and, at the same time, let go as Stojkovic. How do you explain this? "he said Stojadinovic, ensuring that the player" asked the coach that let go, but the response was negative. "

Incidents of Montenegrin

The player failed to training on Sunday, "without proper authorization" of the club. Vukcevic anticipated the integration in the selection of Montenegro, which had not been taking advantage convened for the game with Chelsea (Saturday). The athletes had to submit to Filipovic in the selection until noon Monday and is for that anticipated the trip for Sunday, missing the training.

The Sporting only had to waive it on Monday (day off) because the meeting was of particular Montenegro and the laws of FIFA require the waiver only 48 hours before the game (which took place Wednesday). The situation reached a critical point in September, when the average expressed a desire to leave the club in January, dissatisfied by not holding. Later, the player's manager, Zoran Stojadinovic, has come to Alvalade a proposal of four million, the Sporting declined, regretting the timing, because the market is closed until January.

Ronaldo: Protection de Queiroz


The treatment of exception of Carlos Queiroz to Ronaldo is causing a "profound malaise" among the oldest players national team.


According knew the CM, the fact that the extreme be captain is one of most situations that are causing revolt among international footballers. While all acknowledge that paragraph 7 of 23 years, is a 'great asset', only the friends you have in the selection, Jorge Ribeiro and Nani, you recognize profile to use the armband before that happened, among others, by Mario Column, Humberto Coelho and Luis Figo.

The extreme, moreover, is accused of failing to contain situations in hot or as a result of the many who suffer severe shortages. In the final Brazil-Portugal (6-2 defeat by), moreover, protagonizou a scene with Marcelo (shook her neck) that, according to sources contacted, is not worthy of a captain's selection.

Also the fact that Ronaldo will never be replaced, even if they play badly, is criticized by some aces. Remember that with Scolari just did not.

In addition to the internal problems in selection, Queiroz got one more, with Real Madrid, by using Pepe front to Brazil. The center had an injury (left thigh contusion) on November 2 and since then he was handed to the medical department of Real Madrid. 'It was a major risk. Even though it was not injuries, 'said yesterday the coach of the merengues, Bernd Schuster.

Queiroz devalued the question: 'The selection of doctors are capable and responsible persons. And Pepe is not complained or was affected with the injury. "

'There is no reason to panic'

Carlos Queiroz does not want the players forget the mistakes made in goleada forward to Brazil. 'There is no reason to panic but sometimes we have to cross some storms to navigate them know,' said yesterday the breeder on the sidelines of the presentation of the First International Tournament Carlos Queiroz, for children. On the desire of Brazilian Paulo Assuncao (At.Madrid) in line by Portugal, Queiroz said: 'We have no reservations about the beliefs of the players. It is an initiative of them, which must be respected. "

That good feeling dizzy PEDRO ROCHA

For more than invite the risk landscape, there are those who flatly refuses to ride a roller coaster or to climb to the top of a skyscraper. The symptoms are always the same: cold sweat, scrapie in the legs and an irresistible desire to look to the floor ... for not even imagine how you walk through the clouds. But there are those who know and deal with the vertigo and Leixoes clearly enter this group. There are more than three weeks that the men go to Muzaffarabad this, as if they had fallen into a balloon indomitable knows that only go up, which is not true. There has long merit and work behind the scenes and triumph over Rio Ave, the fifth away from home, have wiped out once and for all with the skeptics who thought that everything runs fine them, including John Eusebius. Indeed, the die is also looking Leixoes and chased her so fierce from the beginning of the game, while measuring and biting at the opponent that appeared to be a wild man identical. In essence, and even the tactical plan, the two teams until they equal; the microscope, the team of Jose Mota has better resources, players of quality, which does not usually fail in crucial moments, as happened with Wesley, the prime suspect of custom, which, in a corner, appeared to rompante to inaugurate the marker at the first time. Everything ran so great for the visitors in the grass and in the stands has dreamed of headlines with new dreams, until an unlikely Rogerio Matias worked as a "joker" the chance to restore equality, on top of the range. It was a free innocent, the upshot Nor metia fear a fly, but the entire defense taniacde, including the goalkeeper Beto, seemed "teleporters" is there to know where. Vai then Jose Mota did what was expected. He gave the team with the speed of Zé Manel entry, began to thunder into the four lines and the "monster" of the Sea awakened there, having gone through some bad bits in the second time. On the other hand, Rio Ave also facilitated, without wanting to, the second of overtaking Chelsea. Bruno thanked China. Leixoes This is not no shame to walk in front.

Accounts of clubs will be audited by the League


Salary arrears. Mechanism of solidarity with the contribution orgaismo
The League of Clubs will contribute financially to the solidarity fund of the players union, which protects cases of social weakness caused by salary arrears. But, you know the DN sport, goes further: either audit the accounts presented by the clubs at the beginning of each season in order to prove that the projects have financial support.

The project's passing Liga as going beyond the bureaucracy to consider the guarantees that clubs have to show before each season and ensure that the accounts have consistency and coherence. The question is whether the league will rely on an outside company, or you create a team with people who already work in the body. So far, the application procedures for clubs to professional leagues are merely pro forma speech to the League which exclude even when detect large discrepancies between costs and revenues. The idea is validated at a meeting of directors (Dec. 2) and, if necessary, will be submitted to the General Assembly.

The president of the League, after a meeting with the president of the amateur star, Antonio Oliveira, also showed that the body will contribute to the solidarity fund for players union (SJPF). "I took the decision to propose the direction that is efectivado a protocol with SJPF allowing cope with urgent situations and proven social risk," explained Hermínio Loureiro, adding that it will do so only if the League can monitor the application of the fund and that He will support with a revenue of the body does not derive from contributions from other members.

Yesterday, and without specifying, Hermínio Loureiro has already runways clear of the path that the League wants to squeeze in control of fictitious accounts. "[There has to be] a strengthening of professional conditions for their good performance and clear rules of budgetary discipline, without which a club will have great difficulty in being accepted in our competitions," he said, and concluded: "We must assume that there are issues of a structural nature, adjustment and that punishment should be regarded with more courage on the part of members of the League, "added the leader, concluding that have to be a more" fair and balanced ".

The Bessa Stadium no longer goes to auction

The Bessa Stadium is again the property of Boavista, after being canceled the order which ordered the seizure by the tax authorities. It also canceled the sale of the enclosure at auction, scheduled for this Thursday.

Balloon oxygen ... It was thus that the decision was seen of Finance to cancel the attachment of the stadium as a result of debts that have already exceeded the 30 million euros. Thus, the Bessa Stadium in turn belongs to the Manchester United Football Club and therefore can be given as collateral to retry the validation of the Plan of extra Conciliation (SGP), and that will allow the payment of the debt in installments.

Last week, it was defined in the General Assembly, the Directorate of the club would be responsible for trying to challenge the auction imposed on the Bessa Stadium, with the argument that it was illegal the first time that the facilities were provided as collateral Even during the presidency of Joao Loureiro, since no vote was made among members (such as ordering the Statute). The justification was accepted and this decision gives more time for the Boavista could devise solutions to the financial crisis. It is recalled that, earlier this year, the DSS asked the boavisteira IAPMEI a new SGP, a call which came to be seen, allowing Liverpool to sign the team in the league. However, with the championship already underway, the application was refused and was requested new guarantees, which become credible chance of fulfilling the agreement by the Boavista.

At that time, and with the stage attached, there was no good that can be given as collateral. Now, remains open the possibility of initiating the resolution, at least immediately, the main problem with Boavista, which is the debt to tax authorities and social security and making the state the largest creditor of the tartan. The elements of the board of Manchester United opted not to comment on the decision, referring to a statement on official website.

The increase is ... Klysman MARKET CLOSED WITH ADVANCED Junior and INTEGRATED

The advanced, which will have the sweater 77, has been participating in training yesterday that the squad has done in sports complex.

Sporting: Izmailov has viral infection and is unable

Izmailov was given as being incapable Tuesday due to a viral infection. The average Russian recovered yet a problem in tibiotarsus, but now is away sick.

One more question for Mourinho, who prepares to visit the Naval on Saturday for the 9th day of the League, with several problems. Rochemback is still regarded as weak, fulfilling only treatment. POLGAR, with complaints in the pipeline right, it was the gym.

Grimi and Pedro Silva has worked conditional on the ground, while Tonel continues to recover with work in the gym and on the ground.

The players who represented the selection sub-21 already returned, extending to 16, available at the session this morning. Joao Moutinho, Vukcevic and Stojkovic remain in the service of their selections.

An advanced goleador not generate much hope that

After having signed the sub-21 selection a pure hat-trick (three goals followed) facing Spain, the more strange that he could say is that Orlando Sa "is not exactly a goleador" as assumes the former coordinator of football Sporting Braga of the juvenile. But attention is not a repair, is a view that defines a young footballer "rebel" and "very future", which stands out more for air quality of the game and the physical power that opens the motorways in defenses against.

The next day a breakthrough that recovered the eternal discussion of the lack of tips-for-launches in Portugal (the most recent things is the pros and cons of entering the Brazilian Liedson selection Portuguese), Fernando Louro describes the boy as the Sporting of Braga recruited at 15 years, from the Beverly Hills. "He came to training and got to capture. At the time, his physique already drew attention," explains the former coordinator of the football club's young Minhoto.

But until you highlight the under-21, Orlando Sá come a way with some obstacles. The begin by temperament. "Initially, he created some disciplinary problems typical of the age," Louro recovers. "It's a rebel, but a good rebel, polite, but we created some problemazinhos we were correcting," progresses. "It's a natural impulse that it may even be helpful if you know the channel within a field," anticipates the ex-leader Nagpurensis. And summarizes: "It is very impulsive, I live my whole life in one day and we had to be patient and wait."

Football, the route to fame that now was not always succeeded in a bed of roses. "In Braga, played the last year of youth, or sub-16, but in the first year of junior was more stationary, because when we had a real ballers, the Louis, which was the best scorer of the national junior and until then abdicated of career to train in medicine, "says Fernando Louro before entering more advanced in the technical area of 20 years. "He is not elected to a technical point of view, but has a technical qb and a remarkable physical ability, combined with an extraordinary air game, as we saw yesterday [before] forward to Spain," analyzes.

"Furthermore, it has a good kick," continues, defending his position: "There is a goleador, is an art that creates large spaces for the way erodes the defenses." And think: "Of course he has to play, but I believe that despite the competition [Meyong, Linz, Rentería and Paulo Cesar for two seats] he may yet run in Braga."

Good news for those who had no academic output: "Almost every week in the school called to say he did not go to classes," recalls Louro. "Via is that the future of it happening even for football."

Queiroz made a comparison with what Ronaldo earns at Manchester United, saying that things are different in the selection. "The game system is different, the players that work with him too.

League: the analysis of the day 8


Within a week, exceeded the glory of a historic clearance for the next phase of the Champions League, Chelsea beat the walls in two brave, recognized on the street as Helton and Bob. It is the Cup of Portugal, three more points in the league and again challenged. It remains, above all, peace to this team of Mourinho, too green to withstand moments of intense psychological pressure. The demerit of Sporting loses in the balance to the merit of Leixoes. A diamond with balance, ability to work and improvisation. Among the brightness of Bob Pimparel and the star of Wesley and find out different points of interest and quality. Congratulations to Jose Mota, the discrediting of chance.

Lori Sandri: A recent example of emotional imbalance around the figure of a coach, Sandri retorted to widespread mistrust, resisted the vote reproachful of John Garden and began to climb. Starting with six points of disadvantage, after losses in the first two days, but the kids grabbed the B team to fill holes and set up a team to defend and secure the swift attack. With the league's best defense, from Sp Braga, the Maritime already climbed to fourth place. Winning in Tiberias was the latest proof of realism.

Sydney: Quique Flores disassemble a scheme seemingly inescapable, abdicating to the extremes of space that is not in the squad, in favor of a diamond as the football from Pablo Aimar. The formula, on paper, built like a glove. However, if it receives a star without seeing the brightness of the money, sweat overlapped to the art and had to be a kid of 19 years, inflated the value of your passwords, to forget the rigidity tactics to resolve the issue. And so, with or without spectacle, the best attack of the League ensured another triumph.

Lisandro: 50 times Lich, confirmed the return of Jesualdo Ferreira to the list of untouchables in the Portuguese league. One more bit of FC Porto, against nothing more than Victorian seriousness, and the Dragon is completely reconciled with the team in returning home after two victories suadas. A goal from Lisandro, the 50th in the league, and assistance for Farías prove that maybe not forget.

The first: Paulo Sergio was sick of white handkerchiefs, while Jaime Pacheco breathed with the greater will, but the first time was equal flavor. Leeton and Belenenses no longer knew how to celebrate a victory, took eight days to come seriously in this league, but they are already here, perhaps ultimately.

The fourth: Junta is a team basis with proven, two brains above average, a coach on the rise and an association unfailing mass. The recipe looks good, but does not work. Fakir came to Bonfim, led Leandro Lima and Matthew but it V. Setubal continues with shortages. No mark for four games, did not score for four games and not providing statements in a 'Blackout' unofficial anything that helps in resolving the problem. Sp Braga front of a recovery in the national landscape, limited the danger to flights of ball stopped. Lack a killer, first of all.

Queiroz is the discovery of Portugal in Brazil


Portugal back tomorrow to play in Brazil, 19 years after the last meeting on Brazilian soil. The national selector will do experiments and make room for Peixoto, Rolando and James at the opening of BezerraI (24.00, TVI), in Brasilia. Pepe was given as fit and followed trip
For just a few minutes yesterday, the VIP room of the airport Portela was a true recreation room between Portuguese and Brazilians, while waiting for the boarding time towards Brasilia. The Luso-Brazilian plane left for Lisbon to 15.00 giving lift to 16 "canarinhos" who play in Europe, but only Luisão has been seen before boarding. Deco was the only "Portuguese" has not followed the cortege to already be in Brazil. The reunion will be tomorrow going to BezerraI (24.00, TVI).

The game particularly with the Brazilian selection - 19 years after the last Brazil-Portugal in Brazilian soil - Carlos Queiroz is to "make some tactical experiments, make decisions and take risks" before the reception to Sweden (in March). "If we want to be ahead, if we want to be champions if we want a winning team, if we want to go to the championship of the world, there is the price to pay. Then the game against Sweden, the margin of error in decisions does not exist" , Said the breeder, stressing that individuals are important even to "strengthen the spirit of group."

Queiroz does not accept negative thoughts surrounding the selection and therefore does not curb the "correct" a journalist when he spoke in negative results. The technician is convinced that the chosen path is suitable to come to South Africa (World 2010), and says he was "excited" to work with a team, "who believes that the objective is to be in the World."

The technician also praised the return of James after nearly two years of absence: "Since I arrived I have to be in contact with him, encouraging him, giving him a word of confidence, so he came up this opportunity, which grabbed well. " The average Juventus did not want to talk about the return. He arrived with some physical complaints, but as Pepe (who has not played for Real Madrid) followed after a trip to Brasilia observed by national team doctor.

Peixoto and Rolando already spoken on the news that long-awaited. To the center "is a great club like Arsenal FC helps a lot to get to the selection." Already the end of the Sp Braga pointed out that "play is available along the side-left and grab the opportunity."

One of the most noticed was the absence of Nuno Gomes (a pair of Lent and Ricardo Carvalho), but Queiroz ensures that "no players discarded," pointing out that the captain of Manchester United "has a history and a culture of choice that can not be neglected. "

Portugal arrives in Brasilia, attention focused on Ronaldo

Filipovic disappointed with Vukcevic Raphael TOUCEDO

The situation that crosses the Vukcevic Sporting, with new case emerged in recent days because of the absence of the athlete in training on Sunday (without the permission of the club, traveled earlier to the concentration of your choice), do not like the breeder of Montenegro, Zoran Filipovic, who until now has given advice to the sweater 10 to change its behavior. However, not Filipovic know if the irreverent player will follow his instructions ... "As the coach has not he thought he could get a day earlier. He knows the consequences it will have.

Stojkovic said that was for the selection, he also had reason to go, "began by mentioning the THIS GAME, after acknowledging that it can deal with an athlete's own strategy to force the removal of unfair emblem, by the disruption: "I spoke with him and has to resolve the situation. It is clear that must change its behavior, will make things differently. I gave him advice and now will depend on him. I can not control the player, is an individual case. The forcing out? Maybe you are doing it ... But I will not interfere with the Sporting, the coach knows better than me what to do. It is to decide whether they want to stay with him or not. For the selection of Montenegro is nothing good to have you in this situation. Let's see if it is convened for the next games in February and March "
