Toronto Leaves Terms Against Zusi

Soccer Betting Lines

Panama City, Panama (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A first-half goal from Graham Zusi was enough for the U.S. men's national team to collect its second 1-0 win in four days, this time in a friendly against Panama. A stoppage-time goal from Ricardo Clark on Saturday against Venezuela gave the Americans a win in their first match of 2012. However, the team only had to wait nine minutes before Zusi fired them into the lead on Wednesday while Jurgen Klinsmann's men had to play the final 35 minutes of the match with 10 men after Geoff Cameron picked up a red card.

 

It was one of the few chances that the U.S. was able to create, and Panama enjoyed the better of the play over the remainder of the match as U.S. goalkeeper Nick Rimando needed to make two nice saves before halftime, the first on Luis Renteria and then on Blas Perez.

 

The first came on a header from six yards that missed the left post by inches, while the Panama striker fired wide of the net from close range when he should have scored in the 86th minute.

 

Klinsmann will take his team to Italy for its next match on February 29 before beginning World Cup qualifying in June.

 

Tests conducted Thursday "confirmed his three week layoff," Barca announced on its website.

 

London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - QPR acquired defender Nedum Onuoha from Manchester City on Thursday and signed him to a 4 1/2-year contract. Onuoha, 25, made his debut for City in 2004 and played 92 matches for the club, some of those under current QPR manager Mark Hughes. Onuoha was on loan with Sunderland last season and played 31 matches.

 

The former England Under-21 international can play center back or right back, and becomes the second defensive addition for QPR this week. QPR signed Taye Taiwo on loan earlier this week from AC Milan for the rest of the season.

 

QPR is 16th in the Premier League, just two points above the relegation zone.

 

Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Toronto FC signed defender Richard Eckersley on Thursday. Eckersley, 22, joined Toronto FC on loan from Burnley last April and played 23 matches for the Major League Soccer club. He started 22 of those matches, and also made six appearances in the CONCACAF Champions League.

 

Eckersley started his youth career with Manchester United and played two games for the Premiership giants. Eckersley signed a four-year deal with Burnley in July 2009 and had loan deals at Plymouth Argyle, Bradford City and Bury before finally landing with Toronto FC.
