England Soccer
Jersey . Also in Group F, Luxembourg scored the first victory of
its qualifying campaign by coming back to beat Northern Ireland 3-2. Goals from
defender Vasiliy Berezutsky, striker Aleksandr Kokorin and midfielder Denis
Glushakov turned the game Russias way, while Eran Zahavi nodded in a consolation
goal for Israel in injury time. Russia dominated the first half but could not
penetrate a well-organized Israel defence. Zenit St. Petersburg striker
Alexander Kerzhakov came closest to scoring one minute before the break, but his
shot from a narrow angle was blocked by Dudu Aouate. Russia coach Fabio Capello
made two substitutions at halftime and the home side soon made the breakthrough.
"I wanted to speed up our game in the centre of the pitch," Capello said. "We
were in control of the ball in the first half but we were not quick enough to
create chances." Berezutsky opened the scoring from inside the box in the 50th
minute. Kokorin doubled the lead two minutes later when he latched onto
Aleksandr Samedovs cross from the right and fired into the top left corner of
the net from 18 metres. Russia continued to dominate and had several more
opportunities before a handball in the area by Zahavi in the 74th. Roman
Shirokov hit the right post from the penalty spot but Denis Glushakov was first
to snap up the rebound and fire into an empty net. Though the home side was in
control, Zahavi headed in his goal after a rapid counterattack in injury time.
"Im satisfied with the result and the way we played," Capello said. "We played
really good in the second half." Russia leads the standings with 18 points from
eight games. Portugal, which did not play on Tuesday, is one point behind.
Israel is third with 12 points, followed by Northern Ireland and Luxembourg,
fourth with six points each. At Luxembourg, Martin Paterson collected Steven
Davis pass and broke through the defence to open the scoring for the visitors at
14th minute. Aurelien Joachim equalized for Luxembourg just before halftime when
his shot deflected off Daniel Lafferty. Stefano Bensi put Luxembourg in the lead
for the first time in qualifying for Brazil when he run away from the Northern
Irish midfield and fired a low drive into the bottom corner from 25 metres in
the 78th. Although, Gareth McAuley levelled the game at 2-2 four minutes later.
Mathias Jaenisch fired home the winner after a goalmouth scramble in the 87th
minute to secure the win over Michael ONeills side. Russia, which last qualified
for the World Cup in 2002, will finish its qualifying campaign with away games
against Luxembourg and Azerbaijan, while Portugal will host Israel and then
Luxembourg in October.

season and more importantly, the most consistent player in the league.

an elite level.

. Michell Burger, a woman who lives on an estate next to Pistorius gated
community, said she and her husband were awoken by the screams in the pre-dawn
hours of Feb. 14 last year, when Pistorius killed Reeva Steenkamp by shooting
four times through a door in his bathroom.SOCHI — Kevin Dineen has made up his
mind. The Canadian womens Olympic hockey team head coach has decided on his
starting goalie for the tournament opener. He even hinted that he has informed
her. But whether the starter will be Charline Labonte or Genevieve Lacasse or
Shannon Szabados against Switzerland at Shayba Arena on Saturday, the three will
remain close teammates and continue to support one another. Theres no jealously
here. They just want to win. “Weve been competing against each other since
August,” Szabados said. “Were used to it. Its a competition. But its definitely
a friendly competition. “We all want to be the one who plays. But were still
good friends on and off the ice no matter who gets the call.” If you dont
believe Szabados, check out the back of their masks. The three came up with a
logo to represent their unity. The symbol is 312, with the numeral one situated
slightly higher between the three and the two. Three-one-two may be the area
code for Chicago, but for Labonte, Lacasse and Shannon it incorporates their
sweater numbers of 1 (Szabados), 31 (Lacasse) and 32 (Labonte). “We have a great
relationship,” Lacasse said. “We joke around a lot. Were competitors, but we
like to have fun. “We also like to support each other. When one of us is
struggling and not in the right place mentally we there with a tap on the pads
in support. In the end its all about getting the gold medal.” The three come
from different cities, different backgrounds and they each followed different
paths to the national team. Mix of youth, experience in net Lacasse is the
youngest of the three at 24. Her father was in the military. So she was raised
in Fort Henry in Kingston. She became a goalie because her older brother Alex
needed someone to take shots on. “I had my share of bloody lips and black eyes,
but my Mom would put me up on the kitchen counter and fix me up and send me back
out there,” Lacasse said.
Fraser Forster England Jersey. . She earned a
scholarship to Providence and has begun work on her MBA, which was put on hold
this year in order to pursue her Olympic dream. Last season, Lacasse was
brilliant in leading the Boston Blades to the Clarkson Cup championship in the
CWHL. She was named goaltender of the year with a 1.26 goals against average.
The 31-year-old Labonte is the most experienced of the three. Shes been with the
national team for 13 years. Shes played with boys and against the boys with the
QMJHLs Acadie-Bathurst Titan over two seasons when she was a teenager. Labonte
of Boisbriand, Que. went to McGill University and led the Montreal school to
back-to-back Canadian titles in 2008 and 2009. In 2010-11, McGill settled for
bronze at the national tournament, but Labonte set a Canadian university record
with an incredible 37 shutouts. She backed up Szabados in the gold-medal final
four years ago in Vancouver. The latter had an outstanding game in blanking the
United States. Szabados was raised in Edmonton and her idol was former Oilers
netminder Bill Ranford, who had his name etched on the Stanley Cup as a player
and as the goalie coach of the 2011-12 Los Angeles Kings. Szabados has attended
Ranfords hockey school and they still exchange text messages to this day. Shes
been a key player on the national team scene since 2006, earning great reviews
with a 3-0 shutout over the U.S. in her debut. She played last season for the
Northern Alberta Institute of Technology mens team and helped the Ooks to the
their first provincial championship in 16 years. Each of the three have the
credentials, but they know one will have to step up and shine if Canada has a
shot at its fourth consecutive gold medal.
