Ohňostroj, bubny i křepčící Ďaloga. Brno v noci přivítalo zlaté hochy Komety
Desítky příznivců se srocovaly kolem brněnské arény už chvíli po zlatém úspěchu, k němuž Kometa dokráčela v úterý ve čtvrt na devět večer. Čekání na šampiony si příznivci krátili skandováním. Asi půl hodiny po půlnoci přijel před brněnskou arénu jako předvoj majitel klubu Libor Zábranský, jehož přivítali fanoušci aplausem, s některými z nich se i vyfotil.To hlavní nastalo chvíli před půl druhou ráno. Klubový autobus Komety se objevil před arénou a stovky příznivců propukly v jásot. Hráče brněnští příznivci přivítali menším ohňostrojem a světlicemi. Tak jsme mistři no a co! Skandovali fanoušci Komety na své hrdiny poté, co se otevřely dveře autobusu na parkovišti před brněnskou arénou.Z autobusu se postupně začali soukat zlatí brněnští hoši. Velký aplaus si vysloužil kapitán Jakub Flek nebo slovenský forvard Kristián Pospíšil, ovace si užil i třeba trenér Kamil Pokorný. Příznivci taky bouřlivě přivítali obránce Marka Ďalogu, který si pozornost užíval a na schodech autobusu křepčil. […]
Senators shut out Leafs, force Game 6 in Ottawa: Takeaways
TORONTO — Another day, another missed opportunity for the Maple Leafs to close out a series.After a 4-0 Senators win in Game 5, the Leafs still have a 3-2 series lead but you might not know it by the way they played at home. They struggled to connect passes when it mattered, could not execute with the puck deep in the Senators’ zone and generally looked tense.AdvertisementBy this point, we know the story: the talent on this Leafs team trumps the Senators, but the Leafs’ perennial problems closing out series have surfaced again.The Leafs’ core of Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, William Nylander, John Tavares and Morgan Rielly are now 1-12 in games with a chance to win a series.Full credit to the Senators for closing well defensively and getting elevated performances from players like Jake Sanderson and Linus Ullmark, who […]

Blue Jays’ Daulton Varsho falls, makes behind-the-back grab to rob Red Sox’s Jarren Duran of hit
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho pulled off an improbable play that is immediately up for catch of the year.In the top of the fourth inning, Boston Red Sox leadoff hitter Jarren Duran hit a fly ball toward the wall in center field. Varsho ran toward the wall but tripped at the warning track, rolled, got up on one knee and tracked the ball before sticking his glove behind his back to catch it.The incredible play comes after the Blue Jays activated Varsho off the injured list earlier in the day to make his season debut. The reigning Gold Glove winner missed the first 28 games of the season while recovering from offseason shoulder surgery. HOW— pic.twitter.com/ianiIVKdWe — MLB (@MLB) April 30, 2025Last season, Varsho hit .214/.293/.407 with 58 RBIs in 136 games with Toronto. He’s in his third year […]
Milton Neves indica técnico para seleção brasileira após negativa de Ancelotti: “Nada de Jorge Jesus”
Jorge Jesus, técnico do Al-Hilal (Divulgação/X @Alhilal_FC) Milton Neves lamentou o fim das conversas entre CBF e Carlo Ancelotti. Logo após um impasse entre o técnico italiano e o Real Madrid para a sua liberação, as partes optaram por não dar prosseguimento na negociação. O jornalista não escondeu sua frustração com a vinda de Ancelotti, até então encaminhada, não ter evoluído. “Era bom demais para ser verdade!”, exclamou em seu blog no UOL. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE Na visão do colunista, o treinador europeu é um dos melhores do mundo e sua vinda para a seleção brasileira visando a Copa do Mundo 2026 seria um grande acréscimo para o escrete canarinho. Milton Neves faz coro por Abel Ferreira Deste modo, Miltão ressaltou sua rejeição ao nome de Jorge Jesus. Assim, voltou a pedir Abel Ferreira como o sucessor de Dorival Júnior, mandando […]
