The first-night reviews for Melbourne Citys dream A-League striking partnership are in, and theyre glowing.All-time Socceroos leading goalscorer Tim Cahill and last years golden boot winner Bruno Fornaroli showed an instant connection in Citys 4-1 FFA Cup demolition of Western Sydney on Wednesday night.On their first outing together, both scored, both assisted, and both looked like they could fire City to a first piece of silverware in the clubs history.Against the Wanderers, Fornaroli played as the advanced striker and Cahill played just behind the Uruguayan.Cahill was on hand to set up Fornaroli for Citys second goal, a simple tap-in after stretching the Wanderers defence.But the pairs best combination came just before halftime.The Australian played a delightful back-of-the-foot flick to release Fornaroli on goal, only for him to be dragged down by Nikolai Topor-Stanley.The Wanderers captain dismissed, Cahill dispatched an emphatic penalty before celebrating in front of his fans.City coach John van t Schip said he was delighted with their showing.They can play together, thats very clear, he said.They work very hard together. They played some good football together.You can clearly see theres a good understanding.Van t Schip said Cahill wouldnt be restricted to playing as a No.10 through the season.It could be also that hes playing a bit higher up the pitch, he said.It depends in what game, whats the score, what moment of the game.Cahill said the club wanted to lay down the foundations for the season.We arent here just to show up and play football, Cahill told Fox Sports.Were here to physically upset teams first and then afterwards youll see the football is really nice.Its a nice feeling at this club.Cahill wasnt the only City player enjoying a home debut, with seven others taking the field for the first time in front of their new fans.Fernando Brandan scored, late signing Nicolas Colazo enjoyed a quarter-hour, while Luke Brattan and Neil Kilkenny put in industrious shifts in midfield.But the biggest bang came from defender Nicolas Jakobsen, who scored just his second goal in five years within 90 seconds of kick-off with a stunning overhead.We thought it was Bruno, van t Schip laughed.For us its more important that (Jakobsen) was organising and taking care of the defence. He had a good game.Yeezy 350 Sale . -- When the Florida Panthers fell behind by two goals in the first period to the top team in the NHL, it appeared they were on their way to yet another loss. Air Max 270 Sale . Kiriasis and brakeman Franziska Fritz finished two runs in one minute 55.41 seconds -- a mere 0.01 seconds ahead of Meyers and Lolo Jones, who likely bolstered her Olympic hopes by helping give USA-1 a huge push in the second heat. https://www.wholesaleshoesforcheap.com/air-max-90-sale/ . The winner Saturday will remain in the elite 10-team field next year. "We talked about wanting to be disciplined and stick with our game plan and good things will come," Draisaitl said, who had two goals for the victors. Wholesale Shoes For Sale . Collaros, 25, was solid last season, posting a 5-2 record as the starter while incumbent Ricky Ray was injured. Collaros also started Torontos 23-20 regular-season finale loss to Montreal — Ray didnt dress because the Argos had already clinched first in the East Division — but was one of three quarterbacks to play that day.

Quick stopped 27 shots in his return from a 24-game injury absence, Jeff Carter scored the tiebreaking goal with 7:55 to play, and the Kings snapped their five-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night.SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Of all the things that have angered Syracuse Orange coach Jim Boeheim over the last two games, rebounding stands out.In losing by a combined 31 points to No. 20 South Carolina and No. 17 Wisconsin in the last week, the No. 22 Orange were outrebounded 77-55.Against the Badgers on Tuesday, Syracuse held a 16-15 rebounding edge at halftime but was outrebounded 25-9 in the second half of a 77-60 loss in an ACC-Big Ten Challenge game at the Kohl Center.They got on the boards and we didnt, Boeheim said. Its not very technical.So rebounding will be the primary point of emphasis for Syracuse when the Orange (4-2) host the North Florida Ospreys (3-6) on Saturday afternoon at the Carrier Dome.The Atlantic Sun Conference-member Ospreys employ a three-guard system, but two of their starting guards are 6-foot-5 (Aaron Bodager and Nick Malonga) and they also start a 6-8 forward (Chris Davenport) and 6-11 center (Romelo Banks).North Florida has outrebounded its opponents by an average of 39.6-34.3 this season, and the Ospreys held their own on the boards in a 91-60 loss to No. 24 Florida last Thursday as they trailed only 32-29 in rebounds.Syracuse is outrebounding its opponents 40-35.3 per game this season, but thats mainly because the Oranges first four games were against Colgate, Holy Cross, Monmouth and South Carolina State.Syracuse needs more rebounding production out of senior forward Tyler Roberson, who averaged 8.5 boards per game last year but is at 5.7 this year, and the Orange guards in their 2/3 zone defense need to grab more of the longer rebounds.Rebounding wasnt the only issue for Syracuse against South Carolina and Wisconsin. After shooting 50.2 percent from the floor and 45.dddddddddddd7 percent from 3-point range in their first four games, the Orange shot 41.5 and 27.8 against the Gamecocks and Badgers.And defensively, South Carolina and especially Wisconsin sliced up Syracuses zone as the Oranges six new players continue to learn the nuances of the defense. Wisconsin shot 49.2 percent from the field and went 11-for-23 (47.8 percent) from 3-point range after making just 31 percent of its 3-point shots in its first seven games.We didnt cover areas that we have to cover, Boeheim said. And they made pretty easy shots, pretty wide open shots.Under coach Matthew Driscoll, the Ospreys havent shied away from scheduling Power Five conference teams as theyve already played (and lost to) Auburn, Miami, LSU and Florida this season with Syracuse, Arkansas and Connecticut to follow.Against Florida, Ospreys senior guard and NBA prospect Dallas Moore scored a game-high 31 points on 12-for-21 shooting (including 6-for-12 from beyond the arc), but it wasnt nearly enough as the Gators bench outscored North Floridas bench 51-16.Dallas was obviously one of the best players on the floor and thats why the NBA scouts were here (Thursday night), Driscoll said. Dallas is a special talent and I dont know if we will have another one around here like him. I hope we do because it makes my job easier for sure.Moore, the Atlantic Sun ConferencePreseason Player of the Year, leads the Ospreys in scoring at 20.4 points per game and is second in assists with 26. Banks is averaging 10.4 points per game and a team-high 6.1 rebounds per contest. ' ' '
