The ninth-ranked Russian looked to be cruising before Antworten

FORTALEZA, Brazil -- The Dutch were worried about the oppressive heat at Arena Castelao, and they left it with the stifling hot conditions to thank for a spot in the World Cup quarterfinals. Cheap Air Max 90 Ultra . An inspired tactical change during the second of two official stoppages led to a late goal from Netherlands forward Wesley Sneijder and an injury-time penalty from Klaas Jan Huntelaar in a dramatic 2-1 victory over Mexico on Sunday. "I moved to Plan B at the cooling break," said Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal, soon to be the manager at Manchester United. "That is a good way to take advantage of those breaks." Despite scoring 10 goals in three group matches, the Dutch again started the match with a defensive 5-3-2 system. Van Gaal made the switch to a more attacking 4-3-3 formation in the second half and tweaked it further when referee Pedro Proenca stopped the match in the 76th minute to allow players to rehydrate. That helped turn the match around and extend Mexicos second-round curse to six straight World Cups. "Unbelievable," said Arjen Robben, the Netherlands forward that earned the late penalty. "Five minutes from full time, we were out." Instead of the Dutch players, it was the Mexicans who wilted in the heat as they conceded twice as many goals in the final minutes of the match as they had in the entire group stage. "The humidity was against us, but we were fresher and fitter than the Mexicans," Van Gaal said. "Yes, we escaped. But we showed that we could create more chances with 4-3-3, and the players handled this shift very well." The Dutch will next face Costa Rica in the quarterfinals on Saturday in Salvador, and may have to play without midfielder Nigel de Jong, who was substituted in the ninth minute with a groin injury. Mexico coach Miguel Herrera, one of the most popular characters at the World Cup because of his emotive ways on the sidelines, blamed Proenca for the loss and accused Robben of diving under a challenge from Rafael Marquez to earn the penalty. "Today it was the man with the whistle who eliminated us from the World Cup," Herrera said. "If a referee invents a penalty, youre out of the World Cup. "I hope they have a look at what happened and that this gentleman goes home just like we are." Marquez said Robben admitted that it was a bad call, but added that the Dutchman thought he should have been awarded a spot kick for an earlier challenge. "I spoke with him after the match and he told me that it was not a penalty," Marquez said. "He said that the first foul was a penalty and that one was not called." Mexico has now advanced to the second round at the World Cup six straight times and not reached the quarterfinals. The last time the team made it that far was as host of the 1986 tournament. Giovani Dos Santos gave the Mexicans the lead in the 48th minute after a goalless first half, but Sneijder equalized with a hard shot in the 88th. It was the first time Sneijder, who scored five goals at the last World Cup in South Africa, has found the net in Brazil. Robben, who has already scored three goals for the Dutch at this years tournament, then earned the penalty in the fourth minute of injury time but he handed the ball to Huntelaar. "You dont know when your chance will come, but it was today, and so you grab it with both hands," said Huntelaar, who replaced captain Robin van Persie in the 76th minute. "And it was fantastic." For Mexico, goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa was again the star player, pulling off two more great saves after playing a key role in holding Brazil to a 0-0 draw in Group A. But he couldnt block Sneijders shot and guessed wrong when diving in an attempt to stop Huntelaars penalty. "It isnt easy to go out this way, the way this match went," Ochoa said. "Its just very hard to deal with when victory escapes you this way." Air Max 90 China Wholesale .ca. In Sundays Blackhawks-Penguins game, Pittsburgh defenceman Brooks Orpik laid a huge hit on Chicagos Jonathan Toews. Now in my view, Orpik can be clearly seen leaving his feet while delivering a moderately high hit. Undefeated x Air Max 90 Black Opti Yellow . Trailing 4-1 in the final set, Sharapova steadied her erratic service game and took command again to beat the 56th-ranked American 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 on clay at the Magic Box tennis centre. The ninth-ranked Russian looked to be cruising before McHale broke late in the second set to tie the match and then took her commanding lead in the final set after breaking Sharapova. http://www.outletairmax90cheap.com/outlet-air-max-90-black-cheap-303.html . - The Seattle Sounders busy off-season continues with the team acquiring defender Chad Marshall from the Columbus Crew in exchange for a 2015 third-round pick and allocation money.INDIANAPOLIS - Mike Adams got a firsthand look at Peyton Mannings record-breaking blockbuster last season in Denver.Now the former Broncos safety is hoping to catch the sequel with his new teammates in Indianapolis.With Andrew Luck off to the best statistical start of his pro career, the Colts new starting safety has started detecting trends that seem to come from the same script a€” an offence that keeps the defence on the sideline, a scoreboard that resembles a video game and a quarterback that has seemingly mastered every facet of the game.It almost feels like every time a third down comes, he moves the chains and thats the key. Move the chains, move the chains and eventually you know six points are coming, so, yeah, it does kind of feel like (last year), Adams said Wednesday.It may not seem fair to compare Lucks spectacular early season numbers to a 16-game run from Manning, a run many consider the greatest season for a quarterback in league history. Manning threw for 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns, both NFL records.But if the Colts franchise quarterback stays healthy and keeps playing this efficiently, Luck could work his way into the conversation.Mannings successor in Indy has never played better a€” and the numbers prove it.He has completed 60 of 80 passes for 763 yards with eight touchdowns and only one interception over the past two games, and hes only been sacked twice in the past three weeks.Instead of having to engineer late rallies, hes led the Colts (2-2) to back-to-back blowouts against division rivals. And the 25-year-old Luck leads the league with 1,305 yards and 13 touchdowns and has led the Colts to an NFL-best 136 points.At this rate, the Colts franchise quarterback may not only break Mannings single-season franchise records for completions, yards passing and touchdowns in fewer attempts, he would become the first player in Colts history to throw for more than 5,000 yards and 50 touchdowns.Coach Chuck Pagano was so impressed with Lucks 393-yard, four-touchdown performance Sunday, he even compared the current two-game run to Michael Jordan being in a zone in his prime. Hes not alone.Wow! Fifty-two touchdowns, wow! Thats my man, Adams said when told of Lucks current pace. Im rooting for him.Luck would rather focus on film study rather than the rave reviews, and he insists the biggest reason for this surge is actually his teammates.Receivers Reggie Wayne and T.Y. Hilton are both ranked among the AFCs top 10 in receptions. Running back Ahmad Bradshaw already has a career-high four touchdown receptions. Cheap Air Max 90. .Dwayne Allens three TD catches are third among NFL tight ends, and an offensive line that was decimated by injuries during the preseason has managed to clear the way for Indianapolis to produce three straight 100-yard rushing games and set a club record for most total yards over a two-game span (1,027).Lucks goal is simple: Keep the momentum.I think if you can get that ball rolling and not relax, not take your foot off the pedal in a sense, you hopefully can corral some of that momentum and keep it going, he said.Indy may not need to make any major revisions Sunday against Baltimore (3-1).While the Ravens usually stout defence is allowing 15.0 points, the pass defence has been suspect. Opposing quarterbacks have completed 64.2 per cent of their passes, thrown one interception and been sacked only four times.And now Baltimore is up against one of the NFLs hottest quarterbacks in a city where it has never won.Indy expected Luck to emerge as the best young quarterback in the league when it drafted him with the No. 1 overall pick in 2012.He hasnt disappointed. As a rookie, Luck engineered one of the greatest one-season turnarounds in league history and leading the Colts back to the playoffs.Last year, Luck cut his interception total in half, increased his completion percentage, led the Colts to the AFC South title and directed the second-largest comeback in playoff history.This season, Luck blamed himself for a botched play call on the goal line in Denver and a late red zone interception against Philadelphia, plays that may have cost Indy two wins.But as he works out the kinks, Luck is becoming the headline star in the NFLs top offence.Its not a shock, tight end Coby Fleener said. I think this is kind of the Andrew Luck that everybody here sees on a daily basis, and now the people that follow the stats actually maybe believe it.Notes: Pagano said left guard Jack Mewhort (ankle) will be replaced in the starting lineup this week by Lance Louis, who started in place of the injured Hugh Thornton at right guard last Sunday. ... Pagano also said safety Sergio Brown will replace LaRon Landry in the lineup as Landry serves a four-game suspension for violating the leagues performance-enhancing substance policy. Pagano said he was disappointed when he found out about the suspension.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
