Article by William Schulz Week two of Major League Soccer has come and gone, and it left a few surprises with us. Several "bottom dwellers" claimed victory from the "big boys", and the Goonies still refuse to say die. Let's grab a can of Red Bull, enjoy the first half, pour the second half of it on the floor, and dive in shall we?
For a second straight week, Sporting Kansas City played a terrible first half, but this time, Toronto FC would not allow the Eastern Conference favorite to complete the comeback. Robert Earnshaw scored two goals inside the first 22 minutes to [...]
Robert Earnshaw Player Profile... Before I kick off this Robert Earnshaw player profile I'd just like to make you guys aware that it's not written by Tim but by me
After a two-game homestand that saw the New York Red Bulls split contests with Sporting Kansas City and the New England Revolution, it's back on the road. This time, RBNY will make its second trip of the year north of the border, visiting Toronto FC at BMO Field. Over the past few seasons, the Red Bulls have had Toronto's number, beating them handily in Harrison and getting generally respectable results in Ontario as well.
Toronto FC came very close to adding a quality striker to partner with Robert Earnshaw, but their quest to build a potent strike tandem has fallen short after word that Kevin Davies move from Bolton to TFC has fallen apart.
Bolton announced on Wednesday that Davies will be staying with the Trotters, with the Bolton News reporting that a "contractual glitch" prevented Davies from completing the transfer.
After scoring first and then falling behind, the LA Galaxy salvaged a late point against Toronto FC thanks to a stoppage time goal from Jose Villarreal.
The Philadelphia Union thought they were robbed of an equalizer. Then they got an equalizer. Then they were one missed shot away from victory. All this occurred in the span of a few minutes, and it all added up to the Philadelphia Union drawing Toronto FC 1-1 at PPL Park on Saturday afternoon.
The first half was a dull and listless and boring and unentertaining and every other unsavory adjective that you can think of affair.
Hackworth hopes Casey will be available for New England game. Union talking points. Amobi is everywhere, and just on the pitch. Good news on USMNT injury concerns. More.

Wales and Cardiff striker Robert Earnshaw believes that racism is still rife in English football,
but insists that Liverpool F.C forward Luis Suarez is innocent until proven guilty.
Earnshaw, who revealed that he has 'experienced racist abuse loads of times...even at certain
grounds in this country', said:
"It's hard to comment [on the Evra-Suarez incident] because both players have their opinions and it
might be crossed wires, we just don't know.

In this week's review section, success in Europe for the big teams as they march towards the
European finals in Poland and the Ukraine in 2012, while Wales let England off the
hook.
England all but secured their place in Euro 2012 after a laboured 1-0 win over Wales at Wembley in
a display which raised more questions than answers. New Wembley, same old s*** is the feeling

Blogger. Follow Soccer Blogger on Twitter This shocking Robert Earnshaw miss vs England allowed the
Three Lions to escape with a 1-0 win when they faced the Welsh at Wembley on 6 September, 2011.
England did a football match against Wales last night. It wasn't particularly good, but they won
1-0 anyway chiefly because Ashley Young scored a goal and Robert Earnshaw, thankfully, spent the
last few years under the tutelage of the Forest striker's coaches.
Shaw-footed Wales were within a whisker of snatching a point against a poor England last night. And
there is no doubt about the moment that would have haunted them last night, especially Cardiff City
striker Robert Earnshaw. With no defenders around him and most of the goal to aim for, Earnshaw
managed to fire over [.
This match will always be remembered for Robert Earnshaw's point blank miss and a blinding
fingertip save from Joe Hart that kept Chris Gunter out. As it stands Ashley Young's goal sweeping
Stuart Downing's cross past Wayne Hennessey made the difference and kept England rolling towards
Euro 2012 qualification.

QPR Official Site - HARFORD: 'WE NEED TO SIGN A STRIKER'
Posted on: Tue 26 Jan 2010
Rangers boss Mick Harford could not hide his disappointment after seeing his side succumb to a 5-0
defeat against an in-form Nottingham Forest side.
Welsh side Swansea City booked its place at Old Trafford after a frantic ending to its 3-1
victory over Nottingham Forest in a League Championship playoff semifinal at Liberty Stadium.
The two sides entered the second leg of their tie knotted at 0-0 on aggregate and were clashing
for a chance to play in the league's promotion final against either Cardiff City or Reading.
In recent weeks there have been several rumours concerning Forest's attempts to sign Peter
Whittingham from Cardiff City. One rumour has it that Forest have offered Robbie Earnshaw in
part-exchange. Given that he is Forest's top goalscorer for the last two seasons, and has netted 34
goals in 73 games for the club, is this [.
Week 2 appears not to have been as high scoring as Week 1. Bethlehem Steel F.C. was the high scorer of the round with 67 points, riding captain Graham Zusi's (SKC) 18 points, as well as 9 points from Amobi Okugo (PHI) and 8 from Bill Hamid. Bethlehem Steel's 145 point total is still not enough to claim first place overall, which is held by last week's point leader, Killer Angels, who have 149 points over the two weeks.
Toronto FC newcomer Robert Earnshaw has taken home the Player of the Week prize for Week 2 in MLS. Earnshaw scored two goals in Toronto FC's 2-1 win over Sporting KC.
Earnshaw scored just three minutes in when he picked off a lazy pass between defenders Matt Besler and Aurelien Collin.He then added a second goal in the 21stminute from the penalty spot.

Wales v Scotland 2011 Aviva Stadium, Dublin- Nations Cup- 25/5/11 Final score:- Wales v Scotland
1-3 ( Robert Earnshaw/ James Morrison, Kenny Miller, C.Berra) Scotland beat Wales 3-1 in Dublin
after Nottingham striker Rob Earnshaw had put the latter ahead in the Nations Cup tie between the
two sides.
Robbie Findley wasn't involved for Nottingham Forest as their season came to a close on Monday in
the Championship promotion playoffs. With the first-leg ending 0-0, both teams had their chances in
an exciting game at Liberty Stadium in Wales. Swansea went up in the 28th and 33rd, with Forest
cutting the lead in half when Robert Earnshaw scored in the 80th minute.
Saturday's two-nil win against Ipswich at the City Ground may well be looked upon as the turning
point in this Forest season. I don't expect this Forest squad to be table-topping, and frankly, I
am sure that we over-achieved last season and have essentially failed to strengthen this year, so
as such cannot be expected to exceed last year's form.
