italy three nil in stockholm and also in action this friday night canada the czech republic holders finland and sweden all russia meantime are preparing for their right now a lot there on saturday and by we don't force them to only n.h.l. and settle the top off as they think ailes. is in utah i believe dealer has now been in church of the russian mission or as hockey team for almost a year and the world championship will be the biggest test for the coach so for despite the fact that russia's main aim is building a team for their home olympics and twenty fourteen winning the world title would act as a huge confidence boost the head of those sochi games to give the team plays like i want them to play hell be satisfied we should see the tech six we're supposed to be applying however the result is very important as well if we. a solid team ready to battle will achieve a good result their red machine has already received reinforcements from the n.h.l.

the color of the avalanche seem on the arm of seems to be the first choice between the pipes while the n.h.l. is best forward you game that is worth being wins will surely add more goals to the team stalley and the detroit red wings center bottled up soup will join the side in sweden but neither model can moderate soup has yet to leave to the world championship trophy but we're good friends with zuckerman it's good that detroit were knocked out of the stanley cup and he can join the team he's one of the best players in the world it's a pleasure to play alongside him and hopefully we'll get a positive result this time milligan of still hasn't named his final roster and has a reserve three places for players from north america whose teams will be eliminated in the second round of the playoffs however nothing can stop russia's the youngest forward he even gave up from going to his first ever world championship. in one thousand year old is often compared with mark him and that there was playing in the same line at the training camp there for is

a great player and of course i'd love to play with him and that would be an on or for me to be in the same line as him but it's up to the coaches to decide the red machine faces who are to be in the open on saturday day two of the world championship and as usual russia are among the favorites with a new ish code behind the bench and a solid rooster on the ice complained about out of archie. if you want a football now and second bottom tom have been relegated off to seven years in russia's top flight following a one l. defeat at killie a set off which sealed their fate with two games to go well and the netted the only goal off to just six minutes after rising at the far post. from there they did have their chances too weak wise and had a solid penalty appeal turned down for handball in the first half but somehow the referee missed it. and then in the second half tom pressed again but they couldn't

find a goal and their fate was effectively still to be nice to have you sent off for a second offense ten minutes from time so tom's seven years fairly russia's top flight is over now two points above the relegation play offs. so this is now the bottom of the russian premier league looks in the relegation group of two games to go tama down along with sponsors while the third and fourth bottom teams will enter the relegation playoffs at the end of the season along with the third and fourth best from the first division aiming for promotion rust also involved are currently banned for the playoffs with clear just two points above them. well meanwhile russia striker probable that have access he would like to stay at english premier league side for them when the current season comes to an end the twenty eight year old joined the cottagers on loan from god during the january transfer window and a scored six goals intends week appearances however his contract with the bundesliga side expires at the end of the season when he will become a free agent and wants to stay on at craven cottage for them are currently ninth

level on points but liverpool. well meanwhile over in spain real madrid have been celebrating their league a triumph that manager joe has a more in years says was the most difficult title to win in his getting coaching career the squad enjoyed an open top bus parade from their home by the bank stadium and through the spanish capital around twenty five thousand fans lining the streets all spangles three knowing of athletic bilbao on wednesday clinched their first league found since two thousand and eight and was merinos seventh the championship title in ten seasons spread across four countries. for me while crossing rivals atletico madrid held an open training session ahead of next wednesday he wrote pally final against fellow spanish side athletic way back in bucharest madrid side won the competition just two years ago with a b. full of two one in extra time but this time around as you go will be relying on strike and found out who scored twenty three goals and fourteen times in the europa league this season. patrick why would he kill his record of seventeen goals in one

year rightfully campaign set last year when he won the try think with cortex. and in the meantime around madrid sporting director and former president in sudan was in moscow to promote his project of developing football schools around the world and what called children at the forget rock concert at the sports. i was he is the man who needs no introduction to any avid football fan voted the champions league best player of the last twenty years and twenty eleven zip gun continues to give back to football first and foremost to real madrid and seconds but probably equally as important to football's next generation's prove to that are the football academies opening in the states of friends. i can use the perfect storm of i can confirm that this project is indeed underway in x. and probably we would also like to start it off in my say but we have not succeeded

in it as yet for a number of reasons it's a family project for me to a large extent and a very important one the project is a success that the children can come to the schools and learn to play football and we hope that it will one day become a national project and who knows maybe one day we'll open a school in russia there's definitely plenty of talent in russia which would appreciate whatever the famous frenchman has to offer zedong branded product launch out of the way he then went on to play suits him it happens with local kids who probably wanted to show up for work that they wanted to learn. i can't describe my feelings i played with zip gun he's great at shit i support real madrid and he didn't used to play for nothing there were so many photographers here today i hope i got from one of those pictures. pretty easy to the easy double complete he's wish lists for the game of football. including opening an account for me here in russia

i. despise a road some of the short stay in the russian capitals in the d.m.z. down left a huge morgue in the hearts of those children even with all the junk one said the boy who was a good few drops of becoming a football player and. going through it all for the shared the key to success with those of the russian children as well ron kaufman fourteen in moscow. now out of the n.b.a. playoffs where the miami heat now have a story no serious late against the new york knicks le bron james going such the same points latest clash which saw the heat run at eighty seven seventy winners miami meeting just one more win to claim the series and so to oklahoma in that series with dallas off to beating the market ninety five to seventy nine i'm not rich admit it was. tonight just picked a bad time to really put a stinker out there i mean nobody really had a good game for us. no talking to us on the other. shots.

just we picked a tough time the really good target nothing going on that often seven well it seems next play each other on saturday meanwhile the knicks are almost certain to be about star point guard jeremy lin for sunday's clash with miami he had surgery on nearly givens at the beginning of april and even though he's returned to practice he's still in some pain and not one hundred percent fit. you know getting better taking this trying to make sure that you know rushing to. put my health at risk. and finally to go off and they say you can't beat local knowledge and that seems to be the case at the wells fargo championship in north carolina webb simpson lives a stone's throw from the quail hollow course and knows the law of the land this punch breaking right last minute for birdie well he called it a sixty five to share the first round lead with fellow americans ryan moore and stewart cink five shots back is rory mcilroy who recently lost the number one

ranking luke donald phil mickelson and tiger woods it's a seventy one this is tiger's first tournament since finishing fortieth at the last is. our american feel to the top of the leaderboard at the spanish open shawn mchale leading the way off of the first day with a brilliant five under par sixty seven the former u.s. p.g.a. championship winner has a one shot lead when placed on his heels off home favorite to hold a company or an englishman robert rock that's him there and then he will it mikhail is happy to be in front and a little surprised at his great start. i didn't play very well yes in the program. we shot a couple over didn't have any very traffic coming in or parker said why nobody said they had three birdies each so it was a difficult day yesterday but you come out today but the but the rain you don't know if you're going to rain the wind is very difficult but i guess that answer your question no i didn't i didn't particularly see that. that's all this was.

the a. chance to be so much brighter if only by phone from phones to christians. who screens don't talk t.v. don't come.
