07/26/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steve Zakuani scored a pair of goals in the opening 20 minutes as Seattle Sounders FC handed the Colorado Rapids a 2-1 defeat at Qwest Field on Sunday.
Sounders designated player Blaise Nkufo was making his Major League Soccer debut, but it was Zakuani that stole the headlines as he scored eight minutes into the game, and after Omar Cummings equalized one minute later for the Rapids, he added another goal in the 17th minute.
The win means that Seattle (6-8-4) has now claimed seven points from its last three games following a three-game losing skid, while the Rapids (6-5-5) are now winless in their last six games.
Zakuani was a bit fortunate to put his team in the lead after just eight minutes as he collected a pass inside the penalty area from Fredy Montero and drove a low shot off the near post. However, the ball came off the post and struck the back of Colorado goalkeeper Matt Pickens, redirecting it into the net.
The Rapids answered almost immediately, however, as Cummings took possession of the ball on the right wing and cut towards the top of the box before unleashing a powerful left-footed shot that flew past goalkeeper Kasey Keller and into the upper-right corner of the goal.
Seattle then regained the lead eight minutes later with some good work from Sanna Nyassi. He chased down a ball on the right wing and carried it into the area before picking out a cutting Zakuani for a simple finish from a few yards.
Again Colorado tried to answer shortly after conceding a goal, but this time Keller did well to tip Conor Casey's header over the crossbar in the 19th minute.
The Rapids were the more dangerous side over the second half, with Seattle playing a more conservative style, and Colorado's best chance to equalize came in the 62nd minute.
Pablo Mastroeni scuffed a shot from outside the area but Jamie Smith did a nice job of redirecting the weak effort on target. However, Keller reacted quickly and did enough to keep the ball out.
Only seconds later, Cummings wasted a great opportunity when he was played in on goal by Mehdi Ballouchy, but he shot the ball over the net from 12 yards with only Keller to beat.

Subdivision Preseason A
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
