Jogadores de Barcelona e Real Madrid (Eric Alonso/Getty Images)
No próximo sábado (26), às 17h (horário de Brasília), acontece a final da Copa do Rei, com mais uma decisão envolvendo Barcelona e Real Madrid. Repleto de craques dos dois lados, o duelo promete ser muito disputado.
Ex-jogador do Barça, Rivaldo colocou sua ex-equipe como favorita por conta do seu momento na temporada, mas apenas “na teoria”.
“Teoricamente, o Barcelona é favorito. Mas sabemos que no futebol, quando se trata de Barcelona e Real Madrid jogando uma final, a gente não vê um favorito. Vemos um momento bom do Barcelona, que também está bem no campeonato e na Champions League, mas é outra competição, é uma decisão. O Real Madrid vai tentar de tudo para tentar salvar a temporada sendo campeão em cima de um grande rival que está bem. Por se tratar de um grande jogo, e de muita rivalidade, não vejo favorito, e sim de igual para igual”, disse Rivaldo, em entrevista à Betfair.
Como chegam Barça e Real para El Clásico?
Além da Copa do Rei, os rivais disputam o título de LaLiga, com o Barcelona na liderança, tendo quatro pontos de vantagem para o Real Madrid faltando cinco rodadas para o término da competição.
O Barça vive um momento melhor na temporada, já que tem novamente a chance da tríplice coroa, uma vez que está na semifinal da Champions League, tendo a Inter de Milão como adversária em vaga na final.
Por outro lado, o Real vive um momento de pressão, muito por conta da eliminação na Liga dos Campeões para o Arsenal.
Além disso, a equipe merengue convive com diversos desfalques, sem poder contar com David Alaba e Camavinga para El Clássico. Inclusive o jogador francês teve lesão confirmada e deve ficar cerca de três meses longe dos gramados.

NBA mulling All-Star Game change: USA vs. World

Mandatory Credit: Kyle Terada-Imagn Images The NBA is considering changing the format of the 2026 All-Star Game in Los Angeles to an international competition. Commissioner Adam Silver said last month that the league was going "back to the drawing board" following its unpopular three-game mini-tournament at the 2025 All-Star Game. On Monday, Silver said an international format -- pitting U.S.-born players against a roster of foreign-born players -- is appealing because the game will air on NBC during the middle of that network's Winter Olympics coverage. "Given the strong interest we've seen in international basketball competitions, most recently in last summer's Olympics […]

„Jak jsme tam celé rodině ohlásili, že čekáme miminko, tak se všichni radovali. A už jim bylo úplně jedno, jak ten večer dopadne,“ s úsměvem vzpomínal Dostál, který pak anketu Klubu sportovních novinářů skutečně vyhrál. „A když zjistili, že máme stejný termín jako ségra, byli úplně nadšení,“ hlásil.Když pak v rozhovorech po vítězství v anketě Dostál vyprávěl, že se mu v roce 2024 povedlo úplně vše, co chtěl, jen on sám a jeho nejbližší tušili, co všechno měl na mysli…Teď už by Anežka Paloudová očekávání jejich syna těžko skrývala, byť se do kajaku stále vejde a na vodu také často vyráží. „Ještě zvládám trénovat, i když vloni bych tohle jako trénink neoznačovala,“ usmívá se. „Prostě chodím na vodu a užívám si, že nemusím, ale chci, teď je navíc hezké počasí,“ libuje si.Dvaatřicetiletý Dostál a o šest let mladší Paloudová začali plánovat rodinnou budoucnost už před dvěma lety na mistrovství světa v Duisburgu, […]

"George's leadership, enthusiasm for the game, for his teammates, and the Faithful are truly unique and special. He is an […]
Prezident FIA Sulajím připustil úpravu kontroverzních pravidel
Prezident FIA Muhamad Sulajím naznačil možnou změnu pravidel, konkrétně přílohy B Mezinárodního sportovního řádu. V tom se uvádí pokuty za sprostá slova a jiné kritizované postihy závodníků všech šampionátů spadajících pod FIA.Na sociální síti Instagram zveřejnil Sulajím příspěvek, ve kterém vysvětluje, že současné znění sportovního řádu konzultoval se závodníky všech sedmi šampionátů FIA a dostal od nich podnětnou zpětnou vazbu.Současné znění pravidel je platné od začátku aktuální sezony. Podle něj se nadávky v průběhu oficiálních akcí a závodů trestají přísněji než dosud a za opakované prohřešky hrozí jezdcům zákaz činnosti. Základní pokuta za první prohřešek je 10 tisíc eur (asi čtvrt milionu Kč), ale ve formuli 1 se automaticky všechny pokuty násobí čtyřmi, takže už první prohřešek znamená milionový flastr.Prvním pokutovaným jezdcem se stal Francouz Adrien Fourmaux. Ten po nevydařeném závodě rallye vynadal sám sobě a neštěstí bylo na světě. Ostatní jezdci se ho zastali a po vzoru GPDA (odborová […]
