Morgan's late heroics lift U.S. past New Zealand

Soccer Betting Lines

02/11/2012 - Frisco, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alex Morgan scored twice in the final minutes to cap a 2-1 comeback win for the U.S. women's national team against New Zealand in a friendly on Saturday.

The Americans dominated play in the first half but were kept out by some good goalkeeping from New Zealand's Jenny Bindon.

And New Zealand took a surprising lead against the run of play in the 49th minute when Kelley O'Hara's poor backpass was intercepted by Hannah Wilkinson, who lobbed her shot over the head of goalkeeper Nicole Barnhart after she entered the match at halftime in place of Hope Solo.

The U.S. went back on the attack, but after being frustrated for almost 88 minutes, finally found the breakthrough when Megan Rapinoe's cross was met by the head of Morgan at the back post, who sent the ball into the net off the woodwork.

Shannon Boxx nearly scored right after as she nodded the ball off the crossbar, but there was still time for another opportunity, and Morgan made the most of it three minutes into added time.

Abby Wambach flicked a ball into the path of Morgan and she made no mistake with a header from eight yards that sailed past Bindon to cap a furious late rally.

The next match for the U.S. women comes Feb. 29 in the Algarve Cup against Denmark.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
