Del Bosque tips Spain to dominateSoccer Betting Lines07/12/2010 - Madrid, Spain (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Delighted coach Vicente del Bosque believes Spain can dominate world football for many years to come after their first- ever World Cup final victory. Andres Iniesta's extra-time goal proved decisive as Spain became world champions for the first time after securing a 1-0 victory in an ill-tempered encounter against the Netherlands. Spain deserved to add the World Cup to the Euro 2008 title they picked up two years ago as they created the better chances in an at times tetchy final. "I think our effort, our flair is never-ending," said del Bosque. "This World Cup draws from what we did in 2008 and it is the continuity and continuation of a very good legacy. "Everyone in the dressing room is ecstatic. "Spain, the country, deserves this triumph. This goes beyond sport. We have to celebrate and are delighted to be able to offer this victory to all the people of Spain." No fewer than 13 players were booked, eight of them Dutch, while Johnny Heitinga was sent off in extra time. However, afterwards del Bosque paid tribute to the effort of the Dutch in a hard-found game at Soccer City. "I should congratulate our opponents," he added. "They made it very difficult for us to play comfortably and they had some good chances. "To try and match Holland when they are playing at that pace is very difficult but we did it and, for the most part, I think we dominated the match. "Yes it was rough at times but that is part of football." (Courtesy of sportbox.tv)

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich. The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
