Rogério Barolo dá conselho a Young após falha no São Paulo: “Não é gênio, faz o básico”
Barolo fala sobre Young, goleiro do São Paulo. (Foto: Reprodução / São Paulo FC)Neste sábado (16), o São Paulo não passou de um empate com o lanterna do Brasileirão, o Sport. Nessa partida, o goleiro Young Navarro, da base tricolor, fazendo sua primeira partida como profissional, falhou feio. Assim, o comentarista Rogério Barolo analisou o lance e mandou alguns recados para o jovem de 23 anos. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADEBarolo manda recado para YoungRogério Barolo, jornalista e torcedor icônico do São Paulo, comentou sobre a falha bizarra na estreia de Young Navarro. Assim, ele analisou o lance, e opinou que o goleiro teve uma tomada de decisão equivocada. Para ele, o melhor seria sair jogando com um toque para um dos zagueiros, e não forçar bola no Pablo Maia.“O que me irritou nesse lance foi o seguinte: ele tá sozinho. Os atacantes […]
NFL Preseason Week 2 Recap: Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17, Pittsburgh Steelers 14
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers flashed both young and old talent in a prevailing 17-14 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium. Although Tampa Bay was limited to just 240 total yards and -0.251 EPA per play, it received major contributions across the board. Second-year running back Bucky Irving hauled in one of his two targets for a 15-yard touchdown; sophomore receiver Jalen McMillan secured his only target for an 18-yard, tumbling catch before exiting due to concussion protocol; and first-round rookie Emeka Egbuka snagged a five-yard score of his own, all in the first quarter. The Steelers rallied due to a Tez Johnson punt-return fumble in the third quarter, knotting the score at 14-14 thanks to Trey Sermon. The team's offensive line struggled with run blocking, but the team's running backs amassed 90 of their 132 yards after contact. […]
NFL Preseason Week 2 Game Recap: Baltimore Ravens 31, Dallas Cowboys 13
Baltimore Ravens backup quarterback Cooper Rush looked Tez Walker's way early and often, and by the time the first quarter concluded, the second-year wideout was the recipient of six targets, which he turned into five catches and 46 yards. On the contrary, the entire Dallas Cowboys offense managed 31 yards in the first half. It was an ugly affair in general, with Rush throwing two picks, Joe Milton III stumbling through the contest and starters logging minimal snaps. But Walker was a constant in the first 30 minutes of game time. His final six-catch, 61-yard stat line was one of the few offensive highlights in the Ravens' 31-13 triumph over the Cowboys in preseason Week 2. Dallas cornerback Andrew Booth Jr.'s pick-six on Rush and the pass-rush acumen of Baltimore rookies Aeneas Peebles and Mike Green stood out on defense. […]
NFL Preseason Week 2 Game Recap: New York Giants 31, New York Jets 12
There's no quarterback competition in Giants camp — Russell Wilson has a stranglehold on the starting job. But Jaxson Dart continues to play as if there's little separating him and the veteran Wilson in the pecking order. Perhaps that day will come sooner rather than later. Dart finished his night with another strong box score: 14-of-16 passing for 137 yards and a touchdown, as well as a rushing score. The eye test matched those numbers. The first-rounder played with the confidence of a veteran and the fearlessness of a rookie. He averaged less than 2.3 seconds to throw, whereas rookies tend to creep more toward 3. Thanks to Dart's output, the Giants poured it on against their New York counterparts and took a 31-12 win in preseason Week 2. Jets quarterback Justin Fields was less impressive, finishing 1-of-5 passing across […]
