O meio-campista Lucas Paquetá não se conteve após receber um cartão amarelo durante a partida entre West Ham e Tottenham, pela 35ª rodada da Premier League. O jogador brasileiro, que está sendo investigado pela Federação Inglesa por envolvimento em apostas esportivas, foi as lágrimas depois de ser advertido pelo árbitro do jogo.
Lucas Paquetá cometeu uma falta antes do meio de campo aos 27 minutos do segundo tempo e recebeu um cartão amarelo. Após a advertência, o jogador brasileiro começou a chorar e foi consolado pelos seus companheiros. O meio-campista acabou sendo substituído sete minutos depois e viu o final da partida no banco de reservas.
Lucas Paquetá é acusado de forçar o recebimento de cartões amarelos para que apostadores lucrassem, mas, logo após a denúncia, em maio do ano passado, Paquetá se manifestou em suas redes sociais, negando integralmente as acusações.
— Estou extremamente surpreso e chateado com o fato de a FA ter decidido me acusar. Cooperei com todas as etapas da investigação e forneci todas as informações que pude durante estes nove meses. Nego as acusações na íntegra e lutarei com toda as minhas forças para limpar meu nome. Devido ao processo em andamento, não fornecerei mais comentários — afirmou o brasileiro.
O meia responde a uma investigação no âmbito da Federação Inglesa de Futebol (FA, na sigla em inglês) por má conduta relacionada a apostas esportivas em quatro partidas da Premier League ocorridas entre novembro de 2022 e agosto de 2023, contra os clubes Leicester, Aston Villa, Leeds United e Bournemouth.
As acusações da FA de 2024 afirmam que Paquetá tentou “influenciar o progresso, a conduta ou qualquer outro aspecto ou ocorrência dessas partidas ao tentar intencionalmente receber um cartão do árbitro com o propósito impróprio de afetar o mercado de apostas para que uma ou mais pessoas lucrassem com as apostas”.
Tanto Paquetá como a FA devem apresentar seus argumentos a um Comitê Independente, o responsável pelo veredito final. A Federação Inglesa e a defesa do jogador ainda têm o direito de recorrerem da decisão deste Comitê Independente.
O julgamento dos recursos será feito por outra comissão, o Comitê de Apelações na Inglaterra. As partes ainda poderão recorrer, em última instância, à Corte Arbitral do Esporte (CAS), na Suíça. Uma sentença definitiva pode levar mais de um ano para ser anunciada. Até lá, Paquetá segue em ação.

Kirill Kaprizov discusses potential contract extension with Wild: ‘It should be all good’
ST. PAUL, Minn. — There’s probably not a person in the Minnesota Wild organization who knows Kirill Kaprizov more than Mats Zuccarello.They’ve shared a bromance for years, on the ice as linemates and off of it. The Russian superstar is known as “Uncle Kirill” to Zuccarello’s two kids.They’ve been attached at the hip.AdvertisementSo it was fitting that when Kaprizov’s future was brought up Sunday, Zuccarello joked that the most important thing Minnesota could do to extend the 28-year-old winger is “I get a job of some kind of salary in this team for eight years.”Whether the Wild can sign Kaprizov to a max, eight-year contract when he’s eligible July 1 — one year removed from unrestricted free agency — will pave the long-term path of this franchise. That’s why Kaprizov’s comments Sunday about re-signing were so encouraging.“We’ll see,” Kaprizov said, […]

NEW YORK — The New York Yankees have dropped back-to-back series against American League East opponents. The Tampa Bay Rays came to the Bronx and took two of three from the Yankees, while the struggling Baltimore Orioles also took two of three before that.The Yankees had their chances late in Sunday’s game to win the series, but they could not rally from an early 5-0 deficit and fell 7-5. We’ll get into the decision that most fans were left scratching their heads over.AdvertisementExplaining Aaron Boone’s managerial decisionThe biggest at-bat for the Yankees on Sunday came in the bottom of the eighth inning with backup catcher J.C. Escarra in the batter’s box. The Yankees trailed 7-3 and had the bases loaded with no outs after Aaron Judge led the inning off with a double, Cody Bellinger walked and Paul Goldschmidt and […]
Struggling Texas Rangers fire offensive coordinator, put Leodys Taveras on waivers
The Texas Rangers on Sunday continued their shakeup amid a slow start at the plate, announcing the dismissal of offensive coordinator Donnie Eckert. The club also placed outfielder Leody Tavares on outright waivers, a source told The Athletic.Both Eckert and Tavares were members of the Rangers’ 2023 World Series championship team. But Texas (17-18) has started the season by scoring just 113 runs through its first 35 games, including the eight scored in Sunday’s 8-1 win over Seattle.

Shota Imanaga exits loss with hamstring strain as Cubs’ thin pitching staff takes another hit
MILWAUKEE — The last thing the Chicago Cubs could afford right now was losing a key part of their rotation. Watching Shota Imanaga pull up while sprinting to cover first, grab his left hamstring and immediately motion to the dugout was worrisome. Imanaga was immediately removed from the game with what was later revealed as a left hamstring strain.Advertisement“We’ll probably do some imaging to see what’s going on,” manager Craig Counsell said after the Cubs’ 4-0 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday afternoon. “He’s never had any lower body muscle strains, so he’s a little unsure of what the feeling means. But he felt something for sure. So we’ll just get it checked out (Monday) and go from there.”Counsell didn’t know if an injured list stint would be necessary. Imanaga, speaking after the game, was similarly unclear about what […]
