Geovanni leads 'Quakes past HoustonSoccer Betting Lines09/05/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Geovanni scored a goal and assisted on another to propel the San Jose Earthquakes to a 2-1 win over the Houston Dynamo at Robertson Stadium on Sunday. The Brazilian was making his first Major League Soccer start since being signed as a Designated Player, and he didn't disappoint as he set up the opening goal after six minutes, which was finished off by Khari Stephenson. Houston leveled the match on the stroke of halftime through Brad Davis, but Geovanni's goal in the 64th minute was enough for San Jose to claim its third win in the last four games. The Dynamo have now won just once in their last 13 matches, and their playoff hopes have all but evaporated. It took the visitors less than six minutes to open the scoring as Geovanni got down the right wing and delivered a pinpoint cross into the path of Stephenson, who rolled a first-time shot inside the far post. Houston tried to respond through Dominic Oduro, but after he created room for a shot from inside the penalty area, Oduro smashed the ball well over the net. However, the Dynamo ended the first half in style as Brian Mullan's shot was blocked by goalkeeper Jon Busch, which gave Mullan the chance to collect the rebound and serve a cross into the middle of the box for Davis to redirect inside the left post. Houston had the brighter start in the second half and Cam Weaver should have put his team in front when he headed a corner kick wide from six yards. But just one minute later, Weaver paid for his wastefulness as Cornell Glen had the ball poked away by a Houston defender inside the area, only for it to fall to Geovanni, who lashed it into the lower-left corner with a first-time shot. The Earthquakes made things tougher on themselves in the 82nd minute when Sam Cronin received a straight red card for a poor tackle on Houston's Andrew Hainault, but the best chance that Houston had to level the match came in the 90th minute when Geoff Cameron rolled a shot wide from 10 yards.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though. Arizona 20-1 To visit this online sportsbook got to MySportsbook.com for all your Sportsbook betting needs. |
