Partido de mucho roce en el 1-1 de Colombia ante Brasil por el cierre de grupos de la Copa América. El sábado enfrentará a Panamá en cuartos de closing.
En poco más de seis meses Colombia superó complejos ante Brasil. Le ganó por Eliminatoria en Barranquilla. Empató en Copa América. Las dos veces desde atrás. Desorientado al inicio, más aplomado para sostener su invicto que ya va por 23 fechas con Néstor Lorenzo.
La tensión gobernó el partido. Entre nervios y pierna fuerte, el conjunto nacional demoró en asimilar la presión del rival, intenso y más decidido. ¿Demasiado respeto? Dejó espacios a Vinicius, descuidó a Rodrygo. Perdió todos los rebotes y corrigió esa pasividad cerca de área con faltas. James trabó de atrás y dejó servido un tiro libre ejecutado a la perfección por Raphinha a los 12′.
Ese gol en contra lo confundió más y lo puso al límite de la fricción. También lo perjudicó el VAR que avaló un fuera de juego milimétrico en un frentazo de Davinson Sánchez señalado por el juez de línea. La personalidad de Richard Ríos encaminó la reacción de Colombia para orientarlo con la pelota. Batalló para recuperarla y buscar el manejo resolutivo del 10.
Creció en fútbol y al closing del primer tiempo el capitán puso orden. Habilitó a Jhon Córdoba, insoportable para los centrales. Otro pase suyo a la derecha habilitó a Daniel Muñoz que en posición de extremo entró al área y de primera venció a Alisson en el 1-1 al closing del primer tiempo.
En el segundo tiempo, la Selección recuperó el orden defensivo. Johan Mojica entró por el amonestado Déiver Machado. Tuvo más confianza. Emparejó la disputa en la mitad y buscó más a James para sostener el balón sin el protagonismo de Luis Díaz y Jhon Arias.
Para los últimos 10 minutos, Jorge Carrascal reemplazó a Rodríguez, de nuevo ovacionado por su rendimiento. El cartagenero entró activo. Resolvió mal de frente al arquero y después le sirvió a Rafa Borré una oportunidad clara, desperdiciada con remate muy arriba.
Colombia jugará los cuartos de closing el sábado 6 de julio ante Panamá en Phoenix. Tendrá la baja de Jefferson Lerma, amonestado en una jugada aislada.
The Spanish tennis prodigy isn’t any stranger when it comes defying logic, expectations and time to rewrite the historical past books.

And may the celebrities align, we might have a repeat of final yr’s epic five-set thriller between Alcaraz and Djokovic.
The 37-year-old Serb arrives at Wimbledon having not too long ago undergone knee surgical procedure after tearing the meniscus in his proper knee throughout his fourth-round match towards Francisco Cerúndolo ultimately month’s French Open.
Had been Djokovic to equal Roger Federer’s file of eight Wimbledon titles, he would turn out to be the oldest champion of the fashionable period.
Alcaraz, although, is absolutely centered on doing what he must do.
“For me, it doesn’t matter towards who I’m going to play,” he explains. “After all, all people needs to look at Jannik [Sinner] towards me within the semifinal or Jannik or me enjoying a last towards Novak.
“I believe that everyone is ready for that second, nevertheless it’s a very lengthy course of, actually long term. Let’s see if I’m going to be on this place.”
Sunday, July 14 might mark a momentous day within the Spanish sporting calendar.
Not solely might we see Alcaraz representing his nation in a second consecutive Wimbledon males’s singles last, however his countrymen may be ready to vie for the Euro 2024 title within the last in Berlin.

She’s received the U.S. Open and Australian Open twice apiece on onerous courts, however by no means has been previous the third spherical on both Wimbledon’s grass or the French Open’s clay. Osaka had not entered Wimbledon since a first-round loss in 2019, and whereas she’s topped the WTA previously, she is now No. 113 within the rankings after being off the tour for 15 months till returning in January.
Earlier than dealing with the 53rd-ranked Parry, Osaka mentioned, she was sifting by photos on her telephone.
“They’ve that characteristic, ‘This time final 12 months.’ I used to be that. I used to be images of myself within the hospital. It’s actually cool to be right here now,” Osaka mentioned. “My mindset final 12 months was simply making an attempt to outlive. Actually, I didn’t actually know what was happening after I gave beginning; simply making an attempt to piece myself again collectively.”
Different massive names who received on Day 1 at Wimbledon included reigning U.S. Open champion Coco Gauff, 2021 U.S. Open winner Emma Raducanu and three-time main champion Carlos Alcaraz, all on Centre Courtroom. Alcaraz started his title protection feeling a bit jittery, he mentioned afterward, however got here by with a 7-6 (3), 7-5, 6-2 victory over Estonian qualifier Mark Lajal.

Lajal (pronounced la-YAHL), who’s every week youthful, was making his Grand Slam debut and felt it to his core, too.
“Two days earlier than, I felt like I used to be going to throw up, I used to be so pressured,” mentioned Lajal, who really went up a break in every of the primary two units. “After I came upon who I used to be enjoying, and the place I used to be enjoying, I used to be tremendous excited. However because it sunk in — what I’d be doing and who I used to be going to be enjoying — I used to be pressured about enjoying in entrance of such an enormous crowd on one of many largest phases in tennis.”
A 12 months after a first-round exit at Wimbledon, Gauff eradicated Caroline Dolehide 6-1, 6-2. Raducanu was a 7-6 (0), 6-3 winner towards Renata Zarazua, a late substitute when No. 22 Ekaterina Alexandrova pulled out due to an unspecified sickness.

However the All England Membership additionally brings again good recollections for the 20-year-old American, whose preliminary Slam look got here after turning into the occasion’s youngest qualifier at 15 in 2019.
“Wimbledon is the place — I would not say the place the dream began,” Gauff mentioned, “however possibly the place I believed the dream was potential.”
From a tennis perspective, Osaka had an actual breakthrough at Roland Garros in Could — though the tip consequence was a loss.

And he or she was extraordinarily upbeat,” mentioned Stuart Duguid, Osaka’s agent. “I don’t suppose she took it as a match the place, ‘I had a match level.’ She took it extra as she obtained some perception again that she will beat the highest gamers.”
Osaka known as Monday’s match towards Parry “just a little up-and-down” and “actually enjoyable and actually irritating on the similar time.” She had greater than twice as many winners as Parry, 34 to 14, but in addition twice as many unforced errors, 38 to 19.
Nonetheless, Osaka considers herself a work-in-progress and a few of that entails permitting herself to make errors, to cede a sport right here and there, and never be too bothered.
“I do know that I didn’t play unhealthy. I feel I simply put an excessive amount of strain on myself that I have to win all of the video games — that I can’t be damaged and issues like that,” she mentioned. “When that finally occurred, I felt like I doubted myself, regardless that I knew my sport plan getting in.

When you have been to choose one episode in Home of the Dragon Season 2 which helps make the appearance of issues, it needs to be the lately dropped Episode 3 which helps make sense of the chaos, and confusion that follows each groups at conflict – the Blacks and the Greens. With either side at err with their conflict selections, it’s tough to choose a facet and you end up at odds discovering favour with any crew always however this episode helps.
As requires conflict develop inside each factions with Daemon Targaryen (Crew Black) and King Aegon II Targaryen (Crew Inexperienced) main the tirade for violence within the title of justice on a number of events, it’s the girls who present restraint and poise. Each Queen Dowager Alicent Hightower and Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen are seen giving in to motive even when selecting the trail for demise was a lot simpler.
Key modifications within the Home of the Dragon Season 2 episode embrace Daemon Targaryen having flown on Caraxes (dragon) to Harrenhal to stake a declare. Ser Criston Cole (who’s now the brand new Hand of the King) marching to Harrenhal to defend King Aegon II Targeryan’s “rightful” declare. Otto Hightower leaves King’s Touchdown after being faraway from the King’s council (as was proven in episode 2) and Cole tries residing as much as the massive sneakers of the senior Hightower.
What we liked in Home of the Dragon S2 Ep 3: *Spoilers forward
The scene between Queen Alicent and Princess Rhaenyra is nothing however magical. You like them or hate them however you possibly can’t ignore how good it feels to see the 2 finest pals sit, chat and cry collectively. After all, there may be the looming reality (that we audiences learn about) that befalls them however will Alicent acknowledge it? That’s a solution we should watch for within the subsequent episode or perhaps later!
The half the place Rhaenyra cajoles Alicent to know and says, “There’s been a mistake,” to which Alicent shrugs away her hand and says, “There was no mistake” needs to make you wail for his or her friendship and all that was misplaced to politics and the lust for the Iron Throne.
We’re particularly pleased for what this is able to imply to Rhaenyra as a result of now her resolve to say her “rightful” stake on the Iron Throne can be unhinged and hopefully assist the tempo at which issues are unfolding in season 2 of Home of the Dragon.
We additionally get to see the younger Rhaenyra who haunts Daemon on his doing (ordering a small little one to get brutally murdered in his crib). Daemon may be seen shedding his sanity, nearly a poetic reference to the curse that runs within the Targaryen household (of affected by psychological sickness).
Watching aunt and niece Rhaenys and Rhaenyra bond can be soothing. Rhaenys comes as the one voice of motive for Rhaenyra whereas all males round her cheer for violence and chaos. She explains how wars by no means make sense and on the finish of all of it, you by no means keep in mind how or why it began. We adore it when she tells Rhaenyra, “There isn’t a conflict so hateful to the gods as a conflict between kin. And no conflict so bloody as a conflict between dragons.”
What may have been higher in Home of the Dragon S2 Ep 3:
The tempo, the tempo, the tempo. It’s season 2 and the present is concerning the Home of Dragons however we don’t see a lot of them truthfully (simply give us extra dragon moments frankly). The dreary tempo at which every little thing is unfolding within the present may have been higher. Additionally, we’d like extra Sport of Thrones moments within the present which is a derivative of the grasp sequence that hooked us by and thru.
Don’t come at me with “The present’s ending was unhealthy”, or “The final season of GoT was disappointing” as a result of no matter was mentioned and carried out, you couldn’t wait to observe the following episode after one was dropped. Home of the Dragon misses evoking that sense of urgency. However we’re prepared to present it extra time to marinate and get juicier.

Be aware: This story accommodates spoilers from “Home of the Dragon” Season 2, Episode 3.
The Dance of the Dragons civil struggle formally kicked off within the newest episode of “Home of the Dragon.”
Episode 3 opens with a fast however bloody battle of two already feuding households arguing over the rightful inheritor, and smash-cuts to the aftermath of a bloody battle with lots of of casualties. Issues don’t decelerate from there because the Battle of the Burning Mill urges everybody to organize for struggle.
Ser Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel) musters himself a military, Daemon (Matt Smith) lastly heads to Harrenhal, and Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) goes off e-book to make a diplomatic plea to Alicent (Olivia Cooke).
These are probably the most stunning moments from “Home of the Dragon” Season 2, Episode 3.
The Battle of the Burning Mill
The episode opens with a squabble gone flawed. A gaggle of younger adults from neighboring households – the Brackens and the Blackwoods – roll up on one another and start arguing about the place the land for one household ends and the opposite actually begins. These households have been feuding for lots of of years, and have been talked about going again to the pre-time leap days of Season 1. Issues have been certain to hit a boil.
One aspect helps Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) whereas the opposite sides with Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney), and when their allegiances are put into query, we get a smash minimize to not simply this small group of males useless, however lots of of casualties within the discipline with a smoking and burned mill within the background. It’s supplier’s alternative if you wish to resolve if it was Rhaenyra’s throne being taken, Aemond (Ewan Mitchell) killing Luke (Elliot Grihault), Blood and Cheese killing Jaehaerys, and so on. what induced the ultimate schism between Group Black and Group Inexperienced – however the Battle of the Burning Mill is the primary actual struggle within the Dance of the Dragons civil struggle.
Daemon Claims Harrenhal
After mentioning it a minimum of 50 occasions within the first two episodes, Daemon (Matt Smith) lastly made good on his craving to assert Harrenhal as a foothold for the struggle. Granted, he ended up heading there as a result of Rhaenyra kicked him out of Dragonstone for botching Blood and Cheese, however a win is a win.
What he finds is a cursed maintain in full disrepair. It takes a minimum of 30 seconds for the castellan of Harrenhal to give up it over to Daemon, however the place is a far cry from what he was anticipating. Our poor, child-murdering prince simply can’t catch a break.

Criston Cole Musters An Military
Daemon isn’t the one one itching to get armies in place because the struggle begun in earnest. The Battle of the Burning Mill was the ultimate catalyst to persuade Aegon they should get extra proactive. In opposition to the urgings of his mom, the king orders Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel) to experience out with a small however swift power and bolster it with Homes they meet on the way in which which are loyal to them.
Criston agrees and when Aegon recommend he accompanies them with Sunfyre, each the brand new Hand of the King and Aemond shoot down the thought in a fake complimentary method. The king agrees to remain and Criston units out – however not earlier than Alicent (Olivia Cooke) convinces him to carry alongside her brother Gwayne Hightower (Freddie Fox).
It isn’t lengthy earlier than a contingent of his males – together with Crison himself – cross paths with Baela (Bethany Antonia) and her dragon Moondancer. The boys make a beeline for the close by woods after being caught out within the open (one other signifier Criston doesn’t know what he’s doing) and simply barely make it earlier than being charred. The Blacks may know that Criston and a small military are behind their borders, however Criston thinks possibly that can be utilized to their benefit.
Milly Alcock Returns in a Imaginative and prescient
Harrenhal actually isn’t treating Daemon like he anticipated. The primary evening spent in his leaky bedchambers lead him to horrible and extremely lifelike desires. He stumbles by means of a room and sees an individual sitting by a hearth. He walks nearer and is horrified to see a youthful Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock) sitting within the chair and stitching Jaehaerys’ little head again on his physique.
It’s a thrill to see Alcock again in a job she crushed for the primary half of Season 1. Ghosts of the previous is one thing many males say Harrenhal is cursed with, so Daemon coming throughout her whereas grabbling with the Blood and Cheese debacle and the fallout on Dragonstone is sensible.
It’s unclear if this was a fast one and achieved second for Alcock on the present, however right here’s hoping Daemon’s ghosts aren’t fairly achieved with him but.
Rhaenyra Heads to King’s Touchdown, and Alicent Learns the Reality
For Group Black, the Battle of the Burning Mill spurred Rhaenyra to behave as effectively. In contrast to her half-brother Aegon, she hopes there could be a diplomatic technique to cease the struggle earlier than it spirals – and it’s by means of Alicent.
Going off e-book — actually, as a result of Rhaenyra doesn’t head right here in “Fireplace and Blood” — the queen sneaks herself into King’s Touchdown dressed as a septon. She is aware of Alicent’s spiritual nature means she’ll be alone within the Sept. The sneaking by means of town could be very paying homage to Arryk’s tense journey by means of Dragonstone final week — however this mission has a much less bloody ending.
Rhaenyra makes a plea to Alicent that they’ve an opportunity to finish the bloodshed and see if there’s a method ahead peacefully. It’s throughout this discuss that she learns Alicent confused Viserys’ (Paddy Considine) final phrases of Aegon have been about Aegon the Conquerer and never their son. Rhaenyra explains Alicent heard the king rambling concerning the Music of Ice and Fireplace prophecy.
To Alicent’s credit score, she appears shaken by the information for a second. She’s in too deep although and to many issues are in movement — Otto (Rhys Ifans) fired, Criston on the transfer, Aemond being Aemond — and she or he tells Rhaenyra to go away town earlier than she’s found.

This yr, the province will mark the day with a ceremony for the not too long ago repatriated Unknown Soldier, who will stand for the lots of of males who died in the course of the battle and shouldn’t have tombs of their very own.
‘You might scent the blood’
The province of Newfoundland and Labrador we all know right now was a rustic of its personal again then. It wouldn’t be part of confederation till 1949, 82 years after Canada formally grew to become a rustic.
The Dominion of Newfoundland – because it was known as on the time – had some 800 males battle on the fields of Beaumont Hamel, in France, on July 1, 1916.
In simply over half an hour of battle, 324 troopers died and 386 had been wounded. The following day, solely 68 answered the roll name.
“One fellow who was there that day stated you could possibly scent the blood,” stated navy historian Frank Gogos, who has spent his life researching Newfoundland and Labrador’s contribution to The Nice Struggle.

That morning, a whole era of Newfoundland and Labrador males was killed by the Germans.
“They noticed what occurred to the battalions that superior earlier than them … Their commanding officer comes alongside and says, ‘Yeah, we’re going to assault,’” Gogos defined.
“I don’t suppose it’s an exaggeration to suppose that not one man who acquired up that day didn’t suppose they had been going to be lifeless by the top of it,” he continued. “It was an order. They needed to do it. However there was additionally a way of delight that you weren’t going to let your buddies down.”
Gogos says paperwork from the day reveal one of many troopers in contrast the march to the battlefield to a stroll by way of a blizzard, “as a result of Newfoundlanders instinctively dropped their chin down and stroll ahead. And that is type of what the troopers had been doing to guard themselves.”
Besides it wasn’t snow troopers had been strolling into. It was gunfire.
A particular honour
An unidentified soldier from Newfoundland and Labrador who died on the battlefield at Beaumont Hamel was buried in an unidentified grave in France.
