Rapids roll to 4-0 win over Red Bulls
Soccer Betting Lines
07/05/2008 -
Commerce City, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mehdi Ballouchy, Colin Clark and Tom
McManus each had a goal and an assist as the Colorado Rapids rolled to a 4-0
win over Red Bull New York on Friday to snap a four-game winless streak.
Omar Cummings also scored for the Rapids in front of a record crowd at Dick's
Sporting Goods Park. Colorado is now 5-2-1 at home this season.
Colorado (6-8-1) won for the first time since a 2-1 win over FC Dallas on June
1 and for just the second time in its last eight games.
New York (5-5-5) had its two-match unbeaten streak snapped and dropped to 1-4-3
on the road this season.
McManus opened the scoring in the 24th minute with his fourth goal of the year
- which temporarily moved him into the team lead. Clark had the final pass on
the play and set up an easy finish for McManus at the right post.
Ballouchy doubled the lead in the 36th minute with his first goal of the season
in his first start of the year. Terry Cooke set the goal up with a cross from
the right side and Ballouchy finished inside the right post.
Rapids goalie Bouna Coundoul made his only tough save in the closing minutes of
the first half to stop a one-on-one chance from New York's Dave van den Bergh.
Clark then put Colorado up three goals four minutes into the second half on an
unassisted goal, and Cummings moved into a tie with McManus for the team lead
in goals in the 68th minute.
McManus and Ballouchy set up the goal to get assists and Cummings beat Red Bull
goalie Jon Conway to the right post for his fourth goal of the season.
The four-goal win matched Colorado's biggest margin of victory this season. The
Rapids also beat the Los Angeles Galaxy, 4-0, in their season opener.
Coundoul made just two saves for his fifth - and the team's sixth - shutout of
the season.
The Red Bulls will try to bounce back Thursday when they visits the Kansas City Wizards. Colorado will try to build on its big win when it visits the San Jose Earthquakes on July 12.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football Week Four betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
