LUFC Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Richard Hastings scored for Inverness and played the full 90 minutes in their 2-1 victory over Dunfermline. With the loss, Dunfermline were relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Kevin McKenna played 90 minutes and earned a yellow card as his side were beaten 3-0 by Bayern in Cottbus. Bochum were beaten 3-2 by visitors Stuttgart. Imhof did not dress. Both of these Bundesliga teams are safe from the drop with one game to play.

Guest Jeffery S. Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 ON Saturday Klukowski was subbed out m. 88 as Bruges fell away to Standard Liege 1-0. They are sixth, but repeat this match in the Cup final and still have options to enter into Europe by that route. Re rumours about Bernier going to Standard, the club seems to be going through a revival (remember this was a great club in the 60s and even earlier), are in the UEFA cup next year, so could be a good experience.

BearcatSA Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I see Radzinski is getting in 90 minutes vs Boro today, playing on the left of a four man midfield. I wonder if he is still in Sanchez's plans for 07/08? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jeffery S. Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Issey played a reserve game (lower division B team) for Vejle yesterday in Denmark. Hutchinson was rested by Copenhagen, I guess thinking ahead to the Cup match mid-week. They beat Randers 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyola Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Kenny S. yellow carded in the 62th min for Tromso but most importantly got the shootout for them in a 1-0 win over Odd Grenland. Don't know about Bernier and Ademolou. Rosenborg lost 2-1 to Stromsgodset, I would assume Lars was in goal. Lillestrom vs Viking just started.

Spoke with Andrew again this Saturday and He is fit to play. He even asked to play with the "B" team on Thursday just to get some game time in before the Gold Cup, he was refused. If anything, he is getting some rest and will be that much more limber for the upcoming team Canada event. He is still going 100% at training, sometimes twice a day and is looking forward to play.

Guest Jeffery S. Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Tyler Hughes played 90 for Östers who fell 3-0 away to Sundsvall in Swedish 2nd tier. In Portugal Fernando Aguiar played 90 and had a 2nd half yellow as his Gondomar fell at home to Vitoria Guimaraes. One game left in the season, with the side upper-mid table and very competitive this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertuzzi44 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Lombardo makes his MLS debut (I think), coming on in minute 70 and assisting on TFC's 3rd goal in a 3-1 win over Chicago. Nice article from TFC's site about Lombadro: TFC's Lombardo aids club, country By Mark Polishuk / MLSnet.com Staff Andrea Lombardo ® saw action for the Canada U-18s and Toronto FC last weekend. (Paul Giamou/MLS/WireImage.com ) TORONTO - Andrea Lombardo was tired. After playing 90 minutes for Canada's under-20 national team in a friendly against Argentina on Friday night, the Toronto FC forward said his personal gas tank was "close to E" for TFC's game on Saturday afternoon against Chicago. But when the 19-year-old striker was called upon to make his MLS debut, it was an opportunity he wasn't about to turn down. "The team needed me for 20 minutes and I gave everything I had left," Lombardo said on Monday. "When the car goes to empty, you go to reserves. I think I was just going on adrenaline and feeding off the energy from the crowd." If Lombardo was fatigued, he didn't show it on the field. Lombardo came on in the 70th minute with Toronto FC clinging to a 2-1 lead against the Fire and looking for their first-ever MLS win. The young forward's pass in the 75th minute was converted by midfielder Maurice Edu to give Toronto a 3-1 lead that ended up being the final score. "[The Fire] were trying to get the tying goal, so I knew there would be a lot of open space," Lombardo said. "Sometimes they were leaving me one-on-one there at the back. Robbo [TFC midfielder Carl Robinson] gave me a tremendous ball into the space there, and ... I saw Maurice coming in trailing and I just hit him. He had a great first touch and a great strike to finish that goal off." Toronto coach Mo Johnston told Lombardo before the game that he might be used in a substitute role. Though Lombardo had played less than 18 hours earlier, Johnston didn't want to use forward Alecko Eskandarian, who was hampered with a calf injury. "I felt it was important we get Lombardo in," Johnston said. "I felt he made it go very well. He ran in, he challenged, he held the ball up. And that was coming after 90 minutes against Argentina. He did well." With an MLS assist and a man-of-the-match honor against Argentina, it was a personal career-best weekend for Lombardo, though the young striker hesitated to call it "perfect" due to the fact that Canada was edged 2-1 by Argentina. "I'm not too happy about it because we lost," Lombardo said. "I'd gladly sacrifice personal glory for a win. We played well against a tough opponent in Argentina, but we wanted to get that result." Lombardo has been capped 14 times by Canada's U-20 squad since 2005 and is expected to play a big role for his country in this summer's FIFA Under-20 World Cup. The Cup may cost Toronto FC depth from the reserve squad, as three other players (midfielders A.J. Gray and Gabe Gala and defender Stephen Lumley) were also capped for Friday's exhibition and are likely to join Canada's roster. Balancing both a club and international schedule can be hectic, especially for younger players, but Lombardo said that he and his fellow U-20 mates have been treated well by TFC and the Canadian Soccer Association. "We had a short training camp [with the national team] from the sixth to the 11th that led up to the game on Friday," Lombardo said. "The team is continuing training this week, but [Canadian under-20 coach Dale Mitchell] spoke with TFC and they worked out a deal where all of us TFC guys could stay with our team. We're in a good environment so it's not like we're going home and sitting on the couch. We're still training every day and getting better." Canada is hosting the Under-20 World Cup, and the final will take place at BMO Field. It all adds up to a hometown advantage for Lombardo, who hails from the Toronto suburb of North York. He has had a number of supporters in attendance for the Argentina game at BMO Field and each of TFC's home matches thus far. "My whole family and a bunch of my friends were here," Lombardo said. "My family has season tickets and I get some tickets allocated from the team. It was really satisfying that they were able to be here to see me do what I did." Lombardo is also proud that his hometown has become the talk of Major League Soccer for its enthusiastic crowds. "The fans we have are the best fans in the league," he said. "Forty-thousand fans in two nights; I don't think a lot of cities would be able to do that. We've shown this is a soccer city and people are going to come out and cheer us on." The forward has had little time to reflect on his weekend. Toronto FC are keeping up a full training schedule in a week that includes a Wednesday night game against Houston and a Saturday clash with D.C. United. With striker Danny Dichio serving a one-game suspension due to receiving a red card on Saturday and Eskandarian at less than 100 percent, it's possible Lombardo could see more action against Dynamo. Whatever happens, however, Lombardo is grateful for the unique position of representing both his country and his hometown at such a young age. "Whatever comes my way I take and I try to make the best of the opportunities," he said. "As a younger guy you have to learn form the older guys in front of you, and whenever the time comes you have to learn from it." Lombardo will do that no matter how tired he gets.

I guess so but I figured since we update USL d1 and MLS it would be ok to put in here (also it was his debut). Personally, I like to see all the updates for our Canadian internationals. Nevertheless, I won't do it again. Sorry for wasting your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Here's the irony, on Wednesday DeRo and Onstad will be Canucks Abroad when they play TFC here in Toronto, but the TFC Canucks will not. And, when TFC travels to play in the States our Canucks are still not abroad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villus Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Well the majority of our MNT players are abroad so why dont we just include even the TFC players and just make it the all MNT players updates, so Bertuzzi thank you for the update I dont think anybody really minds.
