Ferreira equalizer forces Seattle to share points with Dallas
Soccer Betting Lines
07/12/2010 -
Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - FC Dallas got a late goal from Colombian
midfielder David Ferreira to earn a 1-1 draw vs. the Seattle Sounders FC in
Major League Soccer action in front of over 36,000 fans at Qwest Field on
Sunday night.
With the goal, Ferreira has now either scored or assisted on every goal the
Hoops have scored over the past five games, none of which were losses.
Seattle (4-8-4) actually went up early in the game when striker Fredy Montero
scored his sixth goal of the season. The play was made by James Riley, who
collected the ball on the right side and played a perfect service into the
Dallas penalty area to the Colombia striker, who headed home for the 1-0 lead
in the 14th minute.
That was how the scored stayed through the break, with the Sounders looking
like they had complete control of the game until midfielder Miguel Montano
earned a straight red card after an altercation with Dallas attacker Brek Shea
in the 56th minute.
FCD (5-2-7) took advantage of the extra man, gaining more possession of the
ball before finally breaking through three minutes from time.
Ferreira scored his fourth goal of the season after working a give-and-go with
Heath Pearce at the top of the Seattle penalty area. After Pearce played back
to Ferreira, the Colombian volleyed a left-footed laser from the left side
that beat goalkeeper Kasey Keller, just inside the far post.
Dallas will aim to extend its five-game unbeaten run vs. Real Salt Lake on
Saturday, while the Sounders are at D.C. United on Thursday in their next MLS
fixture.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North.
Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Betting
