LONDON -- Fulham ended a seven-game winless run in the Premier League after Hugo Rodallegas second-half goal delivered a 2-1 win over a lacklustre Newcastle. Pascal Dupuis Jersey . The Colombia striker scored with a header from a free kick in the 64th minute at Craven Cottage to inflict Newcastles fifth loss in its past six league matches. Fulham was better in the first half and scored through Steve Sidwells tame shot that hit Newcastle defender Mike Williamson and went in off the crossbar in the 18th. Hatem Ben Arfa equalized in the 54th when his shot deflected off John Arn Riise to loop over goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer. Fulham is 13th with 20 points, one position and three points ahead of Newcastle. Fulham defender Sascha Reither made two first-half blocks to deny Fabio Coloccini and Pappiss Cisse. Despite not having scored for 298 minutes before kickoff, Fulham were the better team in the first half, looking lively and allowing off-season signing Dimitar Berbatov to dictate the pace of the play. "Berbatov was special. Everything he seemed to pluck out the sky. When hes in the mood, hes a real problem," Newcastle manager Alan Pardew said. Fulham manager Martin Jol was also complimentary of his striker, and the impact he has on the squad. "He is a quality player. The good thing about my squad is that they recognize that he is the one when Bryan Ruiz isnt there, that is keeping us together in our approach and our playing culture," Jol said. "Although he didnt score, maybe he covered more ground than ever before." More goals should have come followed Sidwells as Berbatov forced a great save from Newcastle keeper Tim Krul when he found himself unmarked in front of goal just minutes after the restart. French winger Hatem Ben Arfa equalized for Newcastle in the 54th minute when he received the ball from Vernon Anita on the edge of the area and his strike took a huge deflection off of John Arne Riise before looping past Fulham keeper Mark Schwarzer. The lead was short lived as Chiek Tiote brought down Fulhams Ashkan Dejagah just outside the left-side of the penalty area. The Iranians free kick found the head of an unmarked Rodallega. "The goal was a soft goal to give away. A cheap free kick, and then we didnt defend that situation well at all," Pardew said. "We cant concede soft goals at this level." Centre back Coloccini displayed was unlucky not to score for Newcastle in the 70th minute when his curled shot from the edge of the area beaten Schwarzer, but hit the crossbar.

The Dodgers acquired first baseman Adrian Gonzalez, pitcher Josh Beckett and injured outfielder Carl Crawford from Boston on Saturday, hoping to boost their playoff hopes by taking on the underperforming and high-priced stars who failed to thrive in a fractious Red Sox clubhouse.

"I think for the ladies its a great gift for the new year," Russian Hockey Federation president Vladislav Tretiak said on the IIHF website. Brooks Orpik Jersey . CATHARINES, Ont.WINNIPEG -- All the Winnipeg Blue Bombers needed was a game in the their own backyard. After four straight road losses to open the season, the Bombers got a very big monkey off their back Thursday, defeating the Edmonton Eskimos 23-22 for their first win of the season. "Its huge for the players and for everybody to get a win," coach Paul LaPolice said as his team moved to 1-4, still in the East cellar. "(Edmontons) a team thats 3-1 in the West Division before tonight," he said. "We didnt play great tonight. We made some mistakes but we can play with anybody in the league." Running back Chad Simpson, who had 73 running yards, another 49 receiving yards and one touchdown, said he drove over to the field thinking the Bombers absolutely needed the win. "Were happy about this win and were going to party," he said as his face split into an enormous grin. The Bombers were buoyed by the 29,533 football-starved fans who packed into Canad Inns Stadium. They screamed and smacked bang sticks together for a deafening roar as quarterback Steven Jyles struggled to keep the Eskimos offence moving. Edmonton (3-2) had 333 yards of net offence compared with Winnipegs 402. Jyles completed 16 of 30 passes for 244 yards. Winnipegs Alex Brink, meanwhile, went 26 of 38 for 294 yards while picking up 57 rushing yards in his second start since taking over for the injured Buck Pierce. Brink completed just nine passes in his first start against Toronto after having only a day to prepare for the start. But this time, he had a full week to practice. "It means a lot to me on a lot of levels," Brink said. "I felt really comfortable out there. The week of prep really helped though." The Eskimos didnt help their cause with some costly penalties late in the fourth that sapped their forward momentum and took them out of field goal range. Jyles moved back into rrange but his fumble on Winnipegs 28-yard line with seconds remaining sealed the Blue Bombers win. Jordan Staal Premier Jersey. "It was a dogfight all the way to the end," said Winnipegs Jovon Johnson, who recovered Jyles late fumble. Eskimos coach Kavis Reed said the team needs to put the game behind them and prepare for their next one against Saskatchewan. "Its an extremely difficult loss but Im extremely proud of the way this football team played," he said, giving Winnipeg full credit for the hard-fought win. "We did not find a way of getting the two points and there is no one person that is culpable for that." It was a complete turnaround from their last meeting when the Eskimos pummelled the Bombers 42-10. The Bombers got a big lift on the final play of the first half when quarterback Alex Brink found Chris Matthews on a jump ball in the endzone from 40 yards out. Winnipeg went into halftime trailing 14-11. Edmonton seemed to gain some offensive momentum in the third, scoring another touchdown after three minutes when Jyles hit an open Fred Stamps with a 47-yard pass. But a flukey play late in the quarter went Winnipegs way as Mike Renauds blocked punt ended up in the hands of Bombers defensive back Jeremy McGee, who took it 23 yards. Simpson carried it over the line a few plays later to end the third quarter with the Eskimos ahead 21-18. The Bombers moved to within one early in the fourth when Edmonton punter Burke Dales conceded a safety. Reed said it was the right move. Winnipeg then took the lead on a 27-yard field goal by Justin Palardy at 9:09. A punt to the end zone brought the Eskimos within one but Jyles couldnt close the gap on the late drive. Earlier on, Winnipeg had entered the second quarter with a 1-0 lead but Brink threw a costly interception. Edmonton scored a touchdown three plays later when Jyles hit Cary Koch with a 25-yard pass.
