Soccer Betting Lines

Villarreal, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Villarreal claimed three big points on Monday at the Madrigal with a 3-0 victory over Sporting Gijon which snaps a six-game winless streak for the club. Villarreal had dropped four of its last six games and entered the match in 19th place. However, a goal from Marco Ruben in the 57th minute broke a scoreless tie before Borja Valero finished off a pass from Angel Lopez one minute later to double the advantage.

 

Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jovan Kirovski has ended his 20-year career and accepted a position as assistant coach with the Los Angeles Galaxy. Kirovski, 35, spent five years in a Galaxy uniform, including the final three years when he helped the club reach MLS Cup twice, culminating with his first MLS Cup title last season.

 

Kirovski was the first American to sign with Manchester United when he joined the club's youth ranks in 1992, but left the club without ever appearing in a game in 1996.

 

Kirovski moved to MLS in 2004 to join the Los Angeles Galaxy, and later played for the Colorado Rapids and the San Jose Earthquakes before returning to L.A.

 

"Jovan is a very experienced guy, he knows our club and he knows the way that we do things," L.A. manager Bruce Arena said. "He has prepared himself to get into coaching and I think that it will be a good transition for him and he will be a great addition to our staff."

 

The 19-year-old is one of Europe's hottest properties and has been rumored to be on the radar of several big clubs. He has recorded five goals in 14 Bundesliga games this season and has notched 12 caps for Germany.

 

Gotze is expected to be back for Borussia Dortmund's match at Augsburg in mid- March.

 

MLS Commissioner Don Garber made the announcement at City Hall along with Philadelphia Mayor Michael A. Nutter, City of Chester Mayor John Linder, and Union CEO Nick Sakiewicz.

 

"Major League Soccer has chosen to host this year's All-Star Game at PPL Park with good reason," said Philadelphia Mayor Michael A. Nutter. "The Philadelphia region is centrally located, growing in population and has a rich sports culture. The Philadelphia Union have quickly enhanced Philly's sports traditions with the most dedicated MLS fan base in the nation. I have no doubt there will be a fantastic turnout for this year's festivities."

 

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Flamengo inked Chile defender Marcos Gonzalez on a three-year contract Tuesday from Universidad de Chile. The Brazilian-born Gonzalez started his club career with Universidad de Chile, and later played with Rangers, Palestino and Universidad Catolica in Chile, Colon in Argentina and the Columbus Crew in the United States before returning to Universidad last season.

 

The 31-year-old, who was born in Rio de Janeiro, has played nine international matches for Chile. He was voted the best defender in the Americas by Uruguayan newspaper El Pais last season.
