Angel lifts New York over Kansas City

Soccer Betting Lines

06/26/2010 - Kansas City, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Juan Pablo Angel scored two of New York's three second-half goals, lifting the Red Bulls to a 3-0 win over the Kansas City Wizards on Saturday at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in MLS.

Salou Ibrahim scored the first goal in the 55th minute and Angel added both of his goals in the final 10 minutes to increase his season total to eight.

New York (8-5-0) won for the third time on the road this year, and stayed even with the Columbus Crew atop the Eastern Conference. Columbus beat D.C. United 2-0 on Saturday.

Kansas City (3-6-3) lost for the second time at home and sits 12 points behind Columbus and New York in the Eastern Conference.

Ibrahim opened the scoring 10 minutes after halftime following a long ball out of the back from goalie Bouna Coundoul. The initial ball was flicked on and it was converted by Ibrahim for his third goal of the season.

Coundoul played a part in the second goal as well, as he found Angel down the right with a long outlet pass. Angel held off Kansas City's Aaron Hohlbein and fired a half-volley off goalie Jimmy Nielsen and into the net in the 82nd.

Angel sealed New York's win in the 90th minute, when he sprung to his feet following a collision with Hohlbein to run onto a loose ball on the right side of the area. Angel then dribbled around Nielsen and slotted into an empty net.

Only Los Angeles Galaxy and U.S. striker Edson Buddle has more goals this year than Angel. Buddle leads MLS with nine goals, although he's missed a chunk of the season with the U.S. national team.

Kansas City plays FC Dallas on July 3, while New York will try to build on the win July 4 at the Colorado Rapids.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
