Mooy scores screamer in Huddersfield win

Socceroos star Aaron Mooy has scored his maiden English Premier League goal to give Huddersfield Town a 1-0 win over Newcastle.
Mooy's stunning strike came in the 50th minute when he played a neat one-two at the top of the box with striker Elias Kachunga, before the Australian curled his effort past Newcastle keeper Rob Elliot into the top right corner.
The lead up to the goal featured 26 straight passes from Huddersfield, the most from any EPL team in a goalscoring sequence this season.
The goal also earned Mooy a slice of history as it is the first Premier League goal to be scored by the Terriers at The John Smith's Stadium.
Mooy though refused to get carried away post-match as home fans chanted "We are Premier League".
"The boss has a saying to have no limits and we all stand behind that," Mooy told Sky Sports.
"It has been a great start so far, but we can't get carried away, it's early in the season. We just have to keep working hard and keep trying to improve."
It was a complete performance from Huddersfield and Mooy, who was easily the most influential player on the pitch throughout the match.
And while Huddersfield continued to look at ease in the top flight fellow promoted side Newcastle appeared to be anything but.
They seemed bereft of ideas in attack and only had a few chances.
Matt Ritchie was thwarted early in the first half by a fine save from Terriers keeper Jonas Lossl and Ayoze Perez blew a chance to equalise in the 68th minute
The win lifts Huddersfield to second on the ladder behind Manchester United.

Rodrigo keeps Valencia resurgence rolling

Image
MADRID: Valencia maintained their stunning revival under Marcelino Garcia Toral to move to within a point of La Liga leaders Barcelona with a hard-fought 2-1 win at Alaves on Saturday thanks to Rodrigo’s penalty 24 minutes from time. Simeone Zaza also moved just two goals behind Lionel Messi as La Liga’s top scorer with nine when he blasted the visitors into the lead 10 minutes before half-time from Manchester United loanee Andreas Pereira’s cut-back. Alaves remain in the relegation zone with just three points from 10 matches, but they did manage just their fourth goal of the season in a spirited second-half showing. Alexis rose highest to head home Munir El Haddadi’s corner just four minutes after the break and only a brilliant save from Neto prevented El Haddadi from putting the visitors in front moments later. However, Alaves undid all their good work early in the second period with a moment of madness from defender Rodrigo Ely as he handled a cross inside hi...

Learn To Invest Like A Casino Rather Than A Gambler

The way that markets work can be explained using the analogy of sports betting. In Las Vegas, when you bet on a team, you cannot bet $100 to get $100 -- a straight up bet on who will win the game. Instead, the casino will either pay out at a different ratio or offer a bet on the point spread. The point spread basically means that the favored team must win by more than that spread for the bet to pay out. If you are betting on an NFL football game and the point spread is 3.5 points, you would lose that bet if the favored team wins but only by a three-point field goal. Think of it like playing a game of basketball with a younger sibling and spotting them a three-point handicap to make the game more even. If set fairly, that handicap would give you both an equal opportunity to win. Relating this back to the markets, stock prices function similarly to a point spread. At its essence, a stock’s price is the price at which a buyer and a seller agree to transact because the buyer believ...

Spurs stroll as Kane bags brace

Image
HUDDERSFIELD, United Kingdom: A Harry Kane masterclass ensured Tottenham cruised to a 4-0 victory against Huddersfield on Saturday. Tottenham beat Cypriot champions APOEL Nicosia 3-0 courtesy of a brilliant Kane hat-trick on Tuesday and he was just as impressive in West Yorkshire, killing off Huddersfield inside the opening 20 minutes with two superbly taken goals. Ben Davies put Tottenham ahead early on and substitute Moussa Sissoko added a late fourth as the London side blew away David Wagner’s men. The early kick-off gave Tottenham a chance to keep in touch with the Premier League leaders and they gleefully took that opportunity against a Huddersfield team with plenty of heart but little real quality. Huddersfield have proven to be surprisingly durable in defence this term, keeping four clean sheets in their opening six league matches, but that was long forgotten during a 90 minutes they will want to forget. They were more than a match for Spurs early on as Tomm...
