Donovan's late goal helps Galaxy tie Earthquakes

Soccer Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Landon Donovan scored in the 90th minute and the Los Angeles Galaxy remained unbeaten at home in Major League Soccer with a 2-2 draw Thursday night against the San Jose Earthquakes at The Home Depot Center.

Edson Buddle scored his 12th goal of the year, also in the second half, as the Galaxy (12-2-4) erased two deficits to extend their season-long home unbeaten streak to eight games.

Bobby Convey scored his first goal of the year just two minutes into the match and cleared a Buddle shot off the line and Brandon McDonald added his first of the year as San Jose (6-4-5) earned its sixth result in eight road matches.

San Jose got off to a dream start when Convey fired home a rebound inside two minutes. Cornell Glen had the initial chance deflected by L.A. goalie Donovan Ricketts, but Convey ran onto the loose ball on the left side of the area and slotted the rebound home.

Convey, who is second in MLS with eight assists, was added to the MLS All-Star roster earlier Thursday by L.A. coach Bruce Arena.

Buddle had three chances before half to level, but fired wide left in the 23rd and wide right in the 41st before heading high in first-half stoppage time.

L.A. trailed at halftime for the first time in 17 games this season, but coach Bruce Arena sparked the club at halftime and Buddle equalized 14 minutes into the second half.

Dema Kovalenko had a shot pushed over the crossbar by San Jose goalkeeper Jon Busch in the 48th and Buddle followed with a header that was cleared off the line by Convey in the 49th before L.A. finally equalized.

Donovan helped set up the goal for his MLS-high 11th assist by dropping a pass off to the left to Todd Dunivant, who made an overlapping run. Dunivant rolled a low cross through the six-yard box to Buddle, who had an easy finish into an empty net at the right post in the 59th.

Juninho had his free kick pushed over the bar by Busch in the 70th, as L.A.'s second-half momentum slowed after the tying goal.

San Jose capitalized in the final 20 minutes when McDonald fired home a loose ball from inside the six-yard box. Convey played a corner kick from the right and, after Ike Opara's initial shot was deflected by Ricketts, McDonald tapped in the rebound in the 72nd.

L.A. avoided its first home defeat of the season when Donovan scored from just a few inches out in the 90th. Tristan Bowen's initial shot was mishandled by Busch, who then got his hands on Buddle's rebound effort, but couldn't prevent Donovan from sending the second rebound into the back of the net.

San Jose returns to MLS action July 31 when it hosts Seattle Sounders FC. L.A. hosts the Chicago Fire on Aug. 1.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.

MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:

Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)

Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)

Matt Foust won both of his conference championship plays yesterday and he is ready to serve up plenty of Super Bowl action.
