LIVERPOOL, England -- West Bromwich Albion earned a first win at Anfield in 45 years on Sunday with a 1-0 victory over Liverpool that saw the hosts continue their recent poor league run. Kevin Walter Jersey . Liverpool dominated the game and created enough chances to score a handful of goals, but instead it was Peter Odemwingie who netted the winner in the 75th minute to give West Brom manager Roy Hodgson a satisfying return to his former club. "It really was a magnificent rearguard action and the other great satisfaction for me today, of course, was the support I got from both sets of fans," said Hodgson, who was sacked by Liverpool last year after a six-month stint in charge. "I was a bit concerned coming back here. Everyone said youll get a decent reception and I was really pleased they treated me so well. "Obviously I didnt repay them too well by coming away with a victory but it was nice that both sets of fans today gave me the reception that I was really rather hoping for." His replacement at Liverpool, Kenny Dalglish, was left ruing his teams problems in front of goal after twice hitting the woodwork and wasting a slew of other opportunities. Liverpool have won just one Premier League game at home in 2012 and scored only six goals in seven matches. Playing without the injured Steven Gerrard on Sunday, the Reds dominated possession but again couldnt convert that into goals. Dirk Kuyt, whose future at Anfield has been the subject of much speculation this week, set the tone in the 10th minute by dragging a shot wide when he had to at least hit the target. Luis Suarezs cross-shot failed to either test goalkeeper Ben Foster or find a teammate in the six-yard area and when he did have a shot parried by Foster, the rebound was blazed over by Rodriguez. Andy Carroll headed wide, Suarez nodded a looping effort onto the roof of the net and Daniel Agger had a close-range shot turned behind. West Brom were restricted to two chances in the first half, but Liverpool needed a brilliant save from Pepe Reina -- returning after a three-match suspension -- to keep the visitors from going ahead. The Spain international produced an instinctive one-handed save low to his left to stop Chris Brunts 28th-minute volley before blocking Liam Ridgewells shot when Graham Dorrans corner dropped in the six-yard area. Liverpool kept pressing after the break, with Jordan Henderson smashing a shot against the crossbar with Foster well beaten. Suarez produced a trademark weaving run along the byline before firing over, with Rodriguez also volleying into the Kop. West Brom struck in the 75th, after Glen Johnsons attempts to wriggle out of a tight spot deep on the right of defence saw him give the ball away to Youssouf Mulumbu, who played in Odemwingie to shoot past Reina. It was only the Baggies second goal in 12 visits to Anfield -- the last coming when Garth Crooks scored in a 4-1 defeat in 1985. Liverpools onslaught continued, with Jonas Olsson blocking a certain goal for Carroll and Foster claiming Suarezs narrow-angle shot at the second attempt. Brian Cushing Camo Jersey . Following the qualification round of the mens sprint, Briton Jason Kenny is ranked in the number one spot with a 9.713 second time trial result. J.J. Watt Game Jersey . No details of what Daly and Fehr discussed on Saturday were released, but both sides said there were no new developments on the 35th day of the lockout. On Friday, the NHL cancelled all games through Nov. 1. The league said in its most recent proposal to the players that a deal must be reached by Thursday in order for the season to start on Nov. http://www.texansfansroom.com/duane-brown-jersey . Walter Samuel headed Inter in front in the fourth minute following a howler from goalkeeper Christian Abbiati as the Nerazzurris quick start seemed to surprise Milan. Milan improved but had Riccardo Montolivos goal disallowed for a foul on Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic. Andre Johnson Red Jersey . John Jaso hit a two-run homer early, then added an RBI single in the Mariners sixth-run eighth against two of Texas top two setup relievers. Andre Johnson Jersey . Group of Death Group B, dubbed the Group of Death because it contains four teams in the top 10 in the FIFA World Rankings, is certainly living up to its name.Canadas womens basketball team had two shots at berths at the London Olympics -- with 10 long months in between. But rather than spending those months fretting about their Olympic future, coach Allison McNeill prefers to think it was time well spent. The Canadians open a three-game exhibition series versus China on Wednesday, as they hit the home stretch -- finally -- in their quest for a berth at the Games. Canada failed to qualify through the FIBA Americas championships in September, but earned a spot in the last-chance qualifier June 25--July 1 in Ankara, Turkey. "In many ways it turned out to be a good thing for us because we were still a little young last year, during the (first) qualifier, and I feel like weve got a few players that have another year of pro under their belt," McNeill said Tuesday. "Hopefully were just a little bit better to go to the second qualifier." No. 7 China, fourth at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has already booked its ticket to London and is using the three-game series on B.C.s lower mainland as a tune-up for the Games. "Theyll be a great test for us, to see where were at for sure," McNeill said. The Canadians have eight returning members of the squad that played at the world championships two years ago, including experienced veterans like Kim Smith and Teresa Gabriele, both of Mission, B.C., and Chelsea Aubry of Kitchener, Ont. Theyre gunning for their first Olympic appearance since the 2000 Games in Sydney. Following the China series, the team will hold a brief camp in Toronto before travelling to France to play the host team, plus Great Britain, Croatia and Czech Republic, before heading to Turkey. "Because we have a core group thats been at worlds, we sort of looked and said, OK whats the best way to prep this group. Is it more training against each other? No. We dont think so," McNeill said. Womens soccer is the only Canadian team that has qualified for London. The mens basketball team was knocked out at its FIBA Americas tournament without earning a second chance. Brian Cushing Youth Jersey. McNeill admitted watching other Canadian athletes and teams go through their qualifying -- coupled with the long wait for their own shot -- has been stressful. She and several players were closely following Canadas mens volleyball team in its qualifying tournament last week which went down to the final heartbreaking game -- the Canadians lost to the U.S. which ended their shot at the Olympics. "You know what, its very emotional," McNeill said. "Weve been working with our sports psychologist, talking about everybodys attachment to results, you get focused on getting there and being there and how hard youve worked. "Were working very hard with our sports psychologist on just staying in the moment, enjoying the moment, and being ready to play our best just because we want to play our best and the outcome will take care of ourselves. "Were also trying to grab onto some positive momentum in thinking about all the people who have qualified." The Canadians must finish top-five in the second-chance tournament to earn a spot in London. Canada is the fourth-ranked team in the tournament at No. 11. The Czech Republic is top-ranked at No. 4, Mozambique is at the bottom of the rankings in 37th. "We feel that there are five berths and there is no reason why we cant get one of them," McNeill said. "Were not going to this tournament just happy to be there, we really feel like we deserve to be there and we are in contention for one of those five berths. "Definitely were as ready with this program as weve ever been." The three-game series versus China, McNeill said, is the perfect Olympic sendoff for her team. The games are Wednesday in Langley, Thursday in Richmond, and Friday in Abbotsford. "Just my nature -- and our players and staff feel the same way -- its just good to promote our game," she said. "It will be nice to have our home support." Canada was drawn in a pool with No. 8 France and No. 19 Mali for the Olympic qualifying event. ' ' ' |
