USA cruises past Grenada in Gold Cup opener

Soccer Betting Lines

07/04/2009 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Robbie Rogers scored one goal and set up two more as the United States opened its Gold Cup campaign with a comfortable 4-0 win over Grenada at Qwest Field.

Freddie Adu opened the scoring in the eighth minute, while Stuart Holden added a second goal before the break. Rogers scored in the 60th minute to make it 3-0, and Charlie Davies capped the scoring eight minutes later.

The second game in group play for the United States will come on Wednesday against Honduras, which beat Haiti 1-0 on Saturday in its opening match.

Rogers was dangerous throughout the opening half as he delivered a number of good crosses from the left wing.

Rogers set up the first goal in the eighth minute when he carried the ball into the box and squared it to Adu, who struck a low shot first-time past goalkeeper Desmond Noel.

Davies almost doubled the lead in the 22nd minute when he poked a shot towards the far corner that Noel got down to stop, while Grenada's best scoring opportunity arrived one minute later when Kithson Bain's header forced a diving save from goalkeeper Troy Perkins.

Rogers then picked out an unmarked Holden in front of goal and he headed it home from close range in the 32nd minute to make it 2-0, while Adu turned a header on goal following another Rogers cross that forced Noel to tip the ball over the crossbar.

The second half started slowly but a nice run from Rogers through the midfield opened things up. He darted past a Grenada defender and stayed onside before taking a nice pass from Logan Pause and slotting his shot past Noel.

A long ball from the back by Chad Marshall led to the fourth goal for the U.S. as Heath Pearce got to it on the left wing and touched it into the path of Davies, who calmly rolled it into the bottom right corner.

Adu was denied by the post in the 71st minute, while Davy Arnaud made Noel produce a good save minutes later as the U.S. was in complete control throughout.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
