Batem leve, levemente,
como quem chama por mim.
Será chuva? Será gente?
Gente não é, certamente
e a chuva não bate assim.
É talvez a ventania:
mas há pouco, há poucochinho,
nem uma agulha bulia
na quieta melancolia
dos pinheiros do caminho...
Quem bate, assim, levemente,
com tão estranha leveza,
que mal se ouve, mal se sente?
Não é chuva, nem é gente,
nem é vento com certeza.
Fui ver. A neve caía
do azul cinzento do céu,
branca e leve, branca e fria...
– Há quanto tempo a não via!
E que saudades, Deus meu!
Olho-a através da vidraça.
Pôs tudo da cor do linho.
Passa gente e, quando passa,
os passos imprime e traça
na brancura do caminho...
Fico olhando esses sinais
da pobre gente que avança,
e noto, por entre os mais,
os traços miniaturais
duns pezitos de criança...
E descalcinhos, doridos...
a neve deixa inda vê-los,
primeiro, bem definidos,
depois, em sulcos compridos,
porque não podia erguê-los!...
Que quem já é pecador
sofra tormentos, enfim!
Mas as crianças, Senhor,
porque lhes dais tanta dor?!...
Porque padecem assim?!...
E uma infinita tristeza,
uma funda turbação
entra em mim, fica em mim presa.
Cai neve na Natureza
– e cai no meu coração.

Arsenal ganha Torneio de Amsterdan ao vencer o Porto por 2-1
Porto 1 - 2 Arsenal
A 2ª. e última jornada do Torneio de Amesterdão colocou (por acaso) as equipas que haviam triunfado na 1ª. jornada. O FC Porto teve o pássaro na mão já que esteve a vencer por 1-0 com o golo marcado por Lizandro Lopes aos 36' a surgir a rematar vitoriosamente ao 2º poste após cruzamento de Jorginho resultado que se verificava ao intervalo e que aceitava face à lucidez que o Porto demonstrou.
Porém um Arsenal diferente na 2ª. parte (com as entradas de Ljundberg e Bergkamp)surpreendeu o FC Porto que não conseguiu parar os ingleses durante os 20 primeiros minutos da 2ª. parte. O meio campo não travava as "galopadas" dos ingleses que viraram o resultado para 2-1 com golos de Ljundberg aos 49' ( a aproveitar um corte de Ricardo Costa mas em que a bola lhe foi parar aos pés) e aos 68' após trabalho de Flamini pela direita, que levou a melhor sobre Leandro e cruzou para o centro da área, onde Ljungberg não teve dificuldade. A superioridade neste período do Arsenal foi evidente e só Baía conseguiu evitar que o marcador avançasse poer mais duas vezes ao defender remates de Pires e Bergkamp.
Com várias substituições o Porto por volta dos 70' passou a equilibrar e procurou mesmo o empate, mas através dum estilo de jogo de lançamentos longos, pouco habitual na equipa. O empate poderia mesmo ter sido o resultado final caso Jorginho não tivesse desperdiçado uma grande oportunidade ao minuto 89' aproveitando precisamente um lançamernto longo com um defesa inglês a escorregar e a isolar Jorginho em boa posição mas que tanto quiz colocar a bola que atirou ao lado da baliza de Lehman. O empate poderia mesmo ser suficiente para conquistar o Torneio que assim ruma para Inglaterra, já que o Arsenal venceu na 1ª. jornadas o Ajax por 1-0. A esta hora ainda se disputa o 4º e último jogo do Torneio entre o Ajax e o Boca Juniors.
O Porto apresentou a seguinte formação:
Vítor Baía; Sonkaya, Pedro Emanuel, Ricardo Costa e Leandro; Raul Meireles, Lucho Gonzalez e Hélder Postiga; Jorginho, Lisandro Lopez e McCarthy.
Jogaram ainda:Paulo Assunção, Ivanildo, Hugo Almeida, Pepe e Sokota.

Sporting triunfa no Torneio do Guadiana
Sporting 2- 0 Vitória de Setúbal
SPORTING: Nélson; Miguel Garcia, Semedo, Beto e Paíto; Luís Loureiro, João Moutinho; Tello, Nani, Silva e Deivid. Jogaram ainda: Tonel, Polga, Rocehmback, Varela, Manoel, Sá Pinto, Douala e André Marques.
V. SETÚBAL: Marco Tábuas; Janício, Veríssimo, José Fonte e Nandinho; Diakité, Bruno Ribeiro e Madior; Lacombe, Madior e Heitor. Jogaram ainda: Sougou, Dembelê, Ricardo Chaves, Fábio, Adalto, Franja e Fonsenca.
Golos: João Moutinho (50'( e Varela (85')
O Sporting venceu o Torneio Internacional do Guadiana ao derrotar o Vitória de Setúbal por 2-0 (com 0-0 ao intervalo) em jogo disputado no Estádio do Algarve.
A vitória assenta bem na equipa leonina que foi superior, mostrando-se mais esclarecida. João Moutinho, inaugurou o marcador aos 50 minutos, na cobrança de um livre directo, descaído para a esquerda, bateu inapelavelmente Marco Tábuas, apontando um autêntico «golaço». O resultado final seria fixado aos 86 minutos, por intermédio de Varela, que deu o melhor seguimento a uma boa abertura de Rochemback, surgindo pela direita a desferir remate colocado para o poste mais distante.
Uma referencia especial para Nani (com idade de júnior) que jogou de início e fez uma boa exibição.
Em jogo para o 3º. lugar Bétis e Middlesbrough empataram 0-0 com o Bétis a ter sempre mais iniciativa mas a revelar uma finalização confrangedora. Finalização essa (ou melhor ausencia dela) que se propagou aos penalties, com falhanços indesculpáveis em jogadores profissionais e por isso a equipa inglesa ficou em 3º. lugar.
Benfica empata 1-1 em Guimarães
Em jogo demasiado a sério o árbitro andou a brincar!
BENFICA: Quim; João Pereira, Luisão, Ricardo Rocha e Léo; Manuel Fernandes, Beto e Simão; Hélio Roque, Geovanni e Nuno Gomes (Alex, Nuno Assis e Mantorras)
V. GUIMARÃES: Paiva, Mário Sérgio, Dragonner, Cléber e Rogério Matias; Moreno, Flávio Meireles e Benachour; Paulo Sérgio, Clayton e Saganowski (Neca, Pintassilgo, Rivas, Zezinho e Hélder Cabral.).
Árbitro: António Costa
Um jogo que mais parecia a final da Liga dos Campeões tal o empenho dos intervenientes com um árbitro que mais parecia dos "regionais", sem qualquer categoria! Primeira parte de grande agressividade, às vezes violencia, com o árbitro a assistir, a permitir cotoveladas (Só Beto levou três, uma delas absolutamente inverosímel, sem bola), faltas e mais faltas, com o árbitro a assinalar algumas, mas sem exercer sanção disciplinar.
Houve ainda algum futebol com o Benfica mais dominador mas com poucas oportunidades, Beto aos 4' arrancou um livre do meio da rua para uma grande defesa de Tiago junto ao poste, para canto e Quim não fez nenhuma defesa. Koeman no banco barafustava (várias vezes) pela passividade do árbitro e foi um pequeno milagre não ter havido lesionados.
Na 2ª. parte as "leis" do jogo mudaram e o árbitro marca as faltinhas todas, mostra amarelos por tudo e por nada. O Benfica que tanta "porrada" levou viu Manuel Fernandes ser expulso (com duplo amarelo em diferentes lances) e ficou a jogar com dez. Antes num livre assinalado por falta sobre Hélio Roque, apontara o livre em que Beto de cabeça desviou a bola para o fundo da baliza de Paiva dando vantagem ao Benfica.
Reagiu o Vitória e esteve perto de empatar após excelente jogada de Clayton com Paulo Sérgio a desperdiçar (mérito para Quim) e a bola a siar para canto ainda tocada por Leo. Depois a expulsão e a saída de Nuno Gomes para entrar Alex. O Benfica abdicava de atacar e o empate chegou também de livre. Neca atirou à barra, na recarga Saganovsky empatou com a bola ainda a bater no poste . Esperava-se o carregar da equipa local, mas com o empate o Benfica distendeu-se oura vez no campo (com a entrada de Mantorras e saída de Giovanni) e nos últimos minutos foi mesmo o Benfica que esteve mais perto do golo com livres e cantos a seu favor. O árbitro em lance mal ajuizado de canto a favor do Benfica (inexistente) houve protestos e dá dois amarelos no mesmo lance a Dragoner. Estavamos no minuto 90'. Mais cinco minutos de compensação e terminou o jogo com uma igualdade.
Boa "performance" do Benfica, com debilidade no ataque. Atitude no Vitória, mas com agressividade a mais. Da arbitragem já se disse tudo. Não precisamos de árbitros destes. Ninguém percebe que as regras mudem durante os campeonatos, quanto mais que mudem ao intervalo de um jogo!
Vidigal sobre o sorteio que põe o Sporting em confronto com a Udinese
"O Sporting era a última equipa que queria defrontar nesta fase da Liga dos Campeões, mas sorteio é sorteio" .
Não te preocupes Vidigal que os teus desejos vão-se concretizar. Não vais jogar com mais ninguém. O Sporting vai ser mesmo a última equipa com que a Udinese vai jogar nesta Liga de Campeões... E esta hem?

Sporting goleia o Middlesbrough 4 - 0
Vamos ter final portuguesa no Torneio do Guadiana
O Sporting produziu uma boa exibição e conseguiu um resultado dilatado demonstrando que se dá bem perante estes ingleses do Middlesbrough que já eliminara na época passada na Taça Uefa. Ao intervalo o Sporting vencia por 1-0 com um golo de Rochemback de fora da área aos 17'. Ainda antes do final da primeira metade os ingleses ficranm a jogar com 10 por expulsão de Boateng após desinteligencia com Moutinho que fez uma falta muito dura vendo (apenas) o amarelo.
Na segunda parte as coisas foram mais fáceis fazendo o Sporting valer a sua superioridade, também numérica, e com o 2-0 obtido pelo novo reforço Deivid, de cabeça, a resistencia inglesa esfumou-se e os golos aumentaram. O 3º. marcado por Manoel e o 4º através de um penalty ínexistente, convertido por Rochemback. Vitória fácil mas com "Paixão" a mais o que não permitiu fazer um verdadeiro teste a este Sporting 2005/6. Veremos esse teste no jogo contra o Vitória de Setúbal já amanhã.
SPORTING – Ricardo; Rogério, Beto, Polga e Edson; Carlos Martins, Rochemback, João Moutinho e Douala; Sá Pinto e Liedson. Suplentes: Tiago, Miguel Garcia, Tonel, Paíto, Luís Loureiro, Tello, Varela, Deivid e Manoel.
MIDDLESBROUGH – Schwarzer; Parnaby, Quenudrue, Parlour, Eniogu, Southgate, Boatenot, Mendieta, Jymmy, Yakubo e Douning. Suplentes: Brad Jones, Reiziguer, Bates, Nonka, Nemeth, Job, Doriva, Kennedy, Mines e Catermore.
Entretanto o Sporting (ainda de manhã) ficou a conhecer o seu adversário na Pré-eliminatória da Liga dos Campeões : a Udinese. Podia ter sido melho mas não podemos esquecer que o Sporting foi finalista da Taça Uefa da época passada. Então... vamos aos italianos, com quem temos algumas contas para ajustar.
Amsterdan tournament - Porto wins the first match
Porto vence o Boca Juniors por 2-0
O FC Porto entrou a ganhar no Torneio de Amesterdão ao derrotar os argentinos do Boca Juniors por 2-0 com 1-0 ao intervalo. Os golos foram obtidos por Hélder Postiga aos 20' e Jorginho aos 72'. O jogo foi agradável com a presença de jogadores, em ambas as equipas, de grande nível tecnico e a vitória do Porto foi justa por ter sido a equipa que disfrutou de mais oportunidades de golo e ter tido mais objectividade na finalização. A equipa da Argentina deu boa réplica, dando a impressão em certa fase do jogo de que podia discutir o resultado, mas ficou a faltar mais decisão na hora do remate: exemplo disso foi um lance de Palermo que tendo tudo para rematar à baliza pretendeu antes fazer a assistencia para o toque final que não aconteceu. Com a marcação do segundo golo (cruzamento largo da direita de Sonkaya, toque de cabeça de Hugo Almeida e finalização junto ao outro poste de Jorginho) o Porto acabou com as aspirações do Boca Juniors.
Gostámos no Porto de Helton (acreditamos que pode disputar a titularidade), Raul Meireles a querer segurar a titularidade na posição de trinco e uma boa segurança defensiva - destaque para Pedro Emanuel. Dos novos reforços Lisandro López esteve mais activo.
A arbitragem não teve problemas ainda que tenha tido necessidade de mostrar alguns amarelos
Ficha do jogo
FC PORTO – Helton; Sonkaya, Pedro Emanuel, Ricardo Costa e Leandro; Lucho González, Jorginho e Raul Meireles; McCarthy, Hélder Postiga e Lisandro López.

BOCA JUNIORS – Abbondanzieri; Júlio Barroso, Daniel Díaz, Schiavi e Morel Rodríguez; Diego Cagna, Gago e Insúa; Guillermo Barros Schelotto, Palermo e Bilos.
Jogaram ainda: Palácio, Calvo, Cardozo, Rivera e Silvestre.
Ao intervalo: 1-0 Golos: 1-0, Hélder Postiga (20 m); 2-0, Jorginho (72 m) Resultado final: 2-0

Torneio Internacional do Guadiana
Vitória de Setúbal está na final
Começou esta noite a disputar-se o Torneio Internacional do Guadiana com o Vitória de Setúbal a deslocar-se a Ayamonte para defrontar o Bétis de Sevilha. A equipa portuguesa venceu por 2-1 com 1-0 ao intervalo, com golos marcados por Ricardo Chaves e Nandinho para o Setúbal e Juanito para o Bétis todos na sequência de lances de livre. O primeiro num livre de canto, Auri de cabeça mandou a bola à barra da baliza de Contreras, mas na recarga Ricardo Chaves desviou a bola para o fundo das redes da equipa espanhola onde João Tomás actuou durante a primeira parte. O 2º golo foi de livre indirecto, aos 26', um toque de Ricardo Chaves para a esquerda (depois de uma desmarcação de um vitoriano para a direita, a iludir os adversários) para o remate forte e bem colocado com o pé esquerdo de Nandinho a fazer um golo de belo efeito. A verdade é que tinham sido os espanhóis que começaram melhor o jogo com o Vitória a ter que fazer muitas faltas, mas o 1º. golo da equipa de Setúbal (muito apoiada pelos seus adeptos presentes em número significativo) transmitiu confiança. Com o 2-0 sabia-se que o Vitória passaria a ter maior concentração defensiva o que veio a acontecer.
Para a 2ª. parte o Bétis mudou praticamente a equipa toda (só ficou o guarda-redes e Luis Fernandez - defesa esquerdo) entrando algumas das suas estrelas : Juanito, Joachim, Marcos Assunção. O Vitória manteve ainda até cerca dos 20' da 2ª. parte a equipa inicial, aliás com muitas novidades relativamente à época passada, em que se destacaram Lacombe e Songou. O Bétis melhorou o Vitória recuava, as substituições operadas foram mais defensivas e as oportunidades começaram a aparecer para o Bétis com Dani a desperdiçar as maiores, com um remate desastrado de pé esquerdo para fora e posteriormente ainda em melhor posição na cara de Moreto a rematar de pé direito mas frouxo para a defesa ainda assim dificil do guarda-redes de Setúbal.
Aos 79' após uma sequência de cantos chegou o golo do Bétis após um remate em posição frontal de Juanito e então adivinhava-se dificuldades face ao forcing final previsível do Bétis. A equipa de Setúbal conseguiu resistir com boa coesão defensiva e algum congelamento da bola, embora com a sorte de ver um livre directo de Marcos Assunção bater no poste da sua baliza. O Vitória assegurou, pois, a presença na final do torneio que poderá ser 100% portuguesa se o Sporting amanhã derrotar o Middlesbrough.
Boas indicações de alguns dos reforços do Vitória - Lacombe e Songou mostraram ser jogadores de boa qualidade- aos quais acrescentamos as boas prestações de Moreto, Ricardo Chaves e Nandinho. Do Bétis, equipa que ganhou a Taça de Espanha e ficou em 4º. lugar esperava-se mais ainda que na 2ª. parte tenham melhorado significativamente.
A arbitragem esteve em bom plano.

Xadrez - Sidónio Muralha ( a propósito do aniversário do seu nascimento)
É branca a gata gatinha
é branca como farinha.
É preto o gato gatão
é preto como carvão.
E os filhos, gatos gatinhos,
são todos aos quadradinhos.
Os quadradinhos branquinhos
fazem lembrar mãe gatinha
que é branca como a farinha.
Os quadradinhos pretinhos
fazem lembrar pai gatão
que é preto como o carvão.
Se é branca a gata gatinha
e é preto o gato gatão,
como é que são os gatinhos?
- os gatinhos eles são,
são todos aos quadradinhos.

O medo faz calar as aves ... Sidónio Muralha
O medo faz calar as aves nas florestas densas
mas as canções dos homens faze-as mais largas, mais intensas,
mais impetuosas, mais rudes, canções que ferem e espantam
pois com o medo as aves calam-se e os homens gritam e cantam.
E a canção é um homem que percorre o Mundo lés a lés
gesticulando com os seus próprios braços, andando com os seus próprios pés,
grito que vai de continente em continente implacável e forte
e que passa as fronteiras sem precisar de passaporte.
Canções robustas e lavadas que se levantam cedo
e bebem a madrugada e têm o fôlego dos atletas,
porque enquanto as aves se calam, estranguladas pelo medo,
o medo, como uma faca, rasga os corações dos poetas.
