Ferreira equalizer forces Seattle to share points with Dallas
Soccer Betting Lines
07/12/2010 -
Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - FC Dallas got a late goal from Colombian
midfielder David Ferreira to earn a 1-1 draw vs. the Seattle Sounders FC in
Major League Soccer action in front of over 36,000 fans at Qwest Field on
Sunday night.
With the goal, Ferreira has now either scored or assisted on every goal the
Hoops have scored over the past five games, none of which were losses.
Seattle (4-8-4) actually went up early in the game when striker Fredy Montero
scored his sixth goal of the season. The play was made by James Riley, who
collected the ball on the right side and played a perfect service into the
Dallas penalty area to the Colombia striker, who headed home for the 1-0 lead
in the 14th minute.
That was how the scored stayed through the break, with the Sounders looking
like they had complete control of the game until midfielder Miguel Montano
earned a straight red card after an altercation with Dallas attacker Brek Shea
in the 56th minute.
FCD (5-2-7) took advantage of the extra man, gaining more possession of the
ball before finally breaking through three minutes from time.
Ferreira scored his fourth goal of the season after working a give-and-go with
Heath Pearce at the top of the Seattle penalty area. After Pearce played back
to Ferreira, the Colombian volleyed a left-footed laser from the left side
that beat goalkeeper Kasey Keller, just inside the far post.
Dallas will aim to extend its five-game unbeaten run vs. Real Salt Lake on
Saturday, while the Sounders are at D.C. United on Thursday in their next MLS
fixture.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
