La Eredivisie holandesa comienza a ver como un único equipo se distancia del resto de
perseguidores. Estamos acostumbrados en los últimos años a los mismos protagonistas: PSV, Ajax,
Feyenoord y Twente, pero también nos sorprende a veces el AZ Alkmaar que tras algunos años de
bajón parece que vuelve a la carga esta temporada liderando ahora una clasificación donde saca 6
puntos a su más próximo perseguidor, el Twente.

His name on a Union lineup card results in instant vitriol on this and other websites.
His face in the Philadelphia locker room produces a very different result. Following a
spectacular three-goal turnaround that earned a 4-4 tie against the Revolution, Sebastien Le Toux
said with a laugh, "My teammates joke around with me, especially Stefani Miglioranzi, that in the
last ten games I'm going to score every game and help the team the best I can like I didn't do at
the beginning of the season.
A late goal by midfielder Emily Jacobson (Shorewood) gave Marquette a 3-2
victory over reigning NCAA national champion Notre Dame in a women's exhibition match Tuesday night
in South Bend, Ind.
Midfielder Britney Scott scored the other two goals for the Golden Eagles, the
first tying the score and the second giving them the lead.
Both FC Dallas and Portland will be coming off big wins when they meet Sunday at 3pm Pacific for
their first meeting at JELD-WEN Field in Portland. Dallas, coming off an emotional week that saw
them claim at least a little revenge for last year's MLS Cup loss against Colorado, will be looking
to expand on that momentum.

The Philadelphia Union played its first pre-season game in a rainy Orlando this afternoon
against the U-17 U.S. Men's National Team. The Union managed a 1-1 draw against the teenagers. As
there was no video of the match available, this synopsis comes from written sources.
The Union fielded two completely different teams in each half.
Football League 2: Saturday 14th January 2011
No complaints about this defeat by a hard working gang of northern brickies. They ran at Cheltenham
all afternoon. You couldn't say they were a side bursting with individual talent but they were as
solid as a proverbial brick construction. No one hung around and ball watched.
