KANSAS CITY, Kan.
Cheap Robert Quinn Jersey . -- Aurelien
Collin thought he had given Sporting Kansas City a hard-earned draw with the
hottest team in Major League Soccer. Omar Bravo ultimately did it. Bravo scored
on a penalty kick in the second minute of stoppage time, just a few minutes
after Collins goal was disallowed by the referees, and Sporting Kansas City
walked away with a 2-2 tie with the Los Angeles Galaxy on Monday night before a
record crowd at Livestrong Sporting Park. Bravo earned the penalty kick when
Frankie Hejduk was called for a handball in the box. He got Galaxy goalkeeper
Josh Saunders diving to his right and deftly punched the ball into the open net.
"I was a little bit unlucky, to be honest," Hejduk said. "It wasnt like I was
trying to do a handball." The equalizer came after David Beckham got a yellow
card for arguing the spot of the kick. "Not to take anything away from Los
Angeles, theyre a very good team -- theyre the best team in the league right now
-- but we had more at the end than them," said Sporting Kansas City coach Peter
Vermes, whose club is on quite a roll of its own. "We deserved the point." They
may have deserved more than just one. Collin appeared to tie the game when he
leaped into the air and headed home a pass from just in front of the Galaxy net.
Collin took off in a sprint to celebrate the goal and didnt realize it had been
disallowed until the crowd started booing. The referees had ruled him offside.
"Everybody saw the video. There was no offside," Collin said. "What do you want
me to tell you? It was another mistake by the referees. ... Theyre human, you
know? We have to live with it." The late drama overshadowed a stellar game by
Sean Franklin, who scored both goals for the Galaxy (14-3-10). Julio Cesar had
the other goal for Sporting Kansas City (9-8-10). "We had the majority of the
play in the game, had the majority of the chances," Beckham said. "But we also
gave too many balls away, gave too many restarts. When you do that against a
team thats pretty good in the air, it causes problems." Franklin gave Los
Angeles the lead in the 25th minute when he punched home a header from Omar
Gonzalez to hush the record crowd of 20,512 at the new Livestrong Sporting Park.
Cesar equalized for Sporting Kansas City in the 72nd minute, but Beckham found
Franklin on the wing just two minutes later. Franklin barely took a dribble
before unloading a low, hard shot past Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Jimmy
Nielsen to regain the lead. Short-lived as it may have been. "We did a lousy job
over the last 15 minutes of the game. No excuses," Galaxy coach Bruce Arena
said. "Our most experienced players were making lousy plays and we almost lost
the game." It was a testy affair between teams fighting for playoff positioning.
Landon Donovan, who came on as a second-half substitute, Hejduk and Beckham were
shown yellow cards for the Western Division-leading Galaxy. Roger Espinoza,
Graham Zusi and Collin each received a yellow card for Sporting Kansas City,
which remains second in the Eastern Division. Davy Arnaud came on for Espinoza
in the 64th minute for the first time since undergoing sports hernia surgery.
The longtime Sporting Kansas City captain made the most of his first appearance
on the pitch at the teams new stadium, helping to set up Cesars goal in the
second half. "It was good to have him back," Vermes said.

The Broncos braved the cold for their first full practice of Super Bowl week,
working in pads for nearly two hours after a 30-minute walkthrough session
Wednesday. Denver practiced on the synthetic turf outdoor field at the New York
Jets training facility. By the end of practice, the temperature dipped to 21
degrees. "It was great," Broncos coach John Fox said after practice. "Were
pretty much weather-proof. We practice in this stuff all the time. Being in
Denver, weve played in a few different elements. We practiced numerous times in
single digit, played in single digit, played in wind. Weve practiced in snow
many times. Were pretty much ready for anything." Fox has chosen not to use the
indoor field at the Jets plush headquarters for practices this week, opting for
the type of natural elementss that will greet his team at Met Life Stadium on
Super Sunday.
Cheap Jared Goff Jersey. . Fox was pleased
with the flow after the travel and various commitments connected to playing in a
Super Bowl. Wednesday is typically when the focus toward the game increases,
given the full-scale practices. "I wanted to see how well they would re-boot,
get re-charged and practice what weve put in," Fox said. "They recalled it and
it went very well. We had a very good practice." The Broncos had a sense of
normalcy on a few levels. Peyton Manning, as usual, was in command and precise
with his throws. He seemed unaffected by the elements. "Very sharp," Fox said.
"What Ive noticed, he had to get used to weather over the past two years. I
think hes done an unbelievable job, which I think people forget."
