Columbus snuffs Fire at Crew Stadium

Soccer Betting Lines

07/03/2010 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Columbus Crew topped the Chicago Fire 2-1 in Major League Soccer action at Crew Stadium on Saturday night.

There was very little action in the game except for a three minute span at the end of the first half, when all three goals were scored.

The Crew opened the scoring in the 43rd minute when Jason Garey drove into the Fire penalty area, and when Chicago goalkeeper Andrew Dykstra came out but failed to hang onto the ball, Adam Moffat was Johnny-on-the-spot to knock the ball home into a wide open net.

It was Moffat's second goal of the season.

But the Fire answered less than a minute later when a cross from the right side, ticketed for the head of Chicago attacker Patrick Nyarko, was headed into his own net by Crew defender Frankie Hejduk.

But the Crew (8-2-3) got the game winner less than a minute later when an Eddie Gaven cross from the right was headed home by Garey for his first goal of the season.

Columbus will aim to build on the effort at Houston next Saturday, while Chicago (4-4-5) hopes to rebound vs. Real Salt Lake on Thursday.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
