Kamani Hill scores 2 goals in training for V. Guimarães

See here. Unbelievable. Was he even dressing for Wolfsburg II? I don't think so.

Kamani Hill training with Vitória de Guimarães of the Portuguese Superliga?

It appears so, and what an unexpected and interesting career move that would be! Of course, when Hill signed with Wolfsburg of the Bundesliga out of UCLA that was similarly unexpected. Good luck to Kamani.

Lyle Adams scores from 30 yards in Aztex USL-1 opener

In a 1-1 tie against the Minnesota Thunder, Lyle Adams, while apparently playing forward, unleashed carefully placed the equalizing rocket 30-yard soft roller.

I will post the goal as soon as I find it. Behold the highlights (clicking directs you to the USLLive website; registration required) of, frankly, laughable quality.

The Daily Telegraph chose it as the third greatest long distance goal of all time.

Growing up Marcus Tracy dreamed more about becoming the next Michael Jordan than the next Pele.

But somewhere in high school, the former Newtown High soccer star fell in love with football -- the European version.

Sealy starts, receives red card

Here's the summary of the game, and the red card incident specifically, courtesy of Haaretz:

Maccabi Tel Aviv yesterday finally stitched together a two-match winning streak by defeating Bnei Sakhnin 3-0 in Sakhnin's Doha Stadium. The drama was not so much in the result, as in an incident at the end of the first half which resulted in the dismissal of Maccabi manager Avi Nimni. In the 44th minute, it looked like Tel Aviv's Scott Sealy either pushed or brushed by Sakhnin defender Paty Yeye Lenkebe. At first the referee, Eli Hahmon, carded Lenkebe for faking the hit, but after consulting the linesman retracted the card and dismissed Sealy. Nimni exchanged words with the referee at halftime, prompting the latter to send him off the pitch as well. Lior Jan then received his second yellow card eight minutes into the final half, leaving Tel Aviv with only nine players on the pitch. Earlier, Moshe Mishaelof had headed in Tel Aviv's first goal in the 33rd minute from a free kick by Maor Buzaglo. Playing shorthanded, however, did not deter Tel Aviv, which broke out on the attack in the 86th minute and went 2-0 ahead on a goal by substitute Dulee Johnson from a pass from Ilya Yavruyan. Mishaelof finished off the scoring in the 90th minute with his second goal of the night.

AGF v. AaB (the Battle of Wake Forest NOT featuring Benny Feilhaber)

White starts, but Tracy is not on the field. Let's hope he made the bench and that he is healthy.

Here's commentary in Danish.

UPDATE: An AaB fan on Big Soccer reports that Tracy is out with a thigh strain. That's unfortunate.

UPDATE 2: A heartbreaking loss for AGF deep in stoppage time. Both teams have done an excellent job keeping their shape until the very end, when first Jacob Poulsen hit the post for AGF and then AaB (Enevoldsen) snatched victory on the ensuing counterattack. White struggled to find space throughout, with Danish international left back Michael Jacobsen doing well to keep White generally at bay. However, White did get his head on the ball in the box on a couple consecutive attacks in the second half with the first of the chances barely flying over, and was involved in AGF's goal as he played a nice give-and-go with Kasper Povlsen, who then crossed for Peter Graulund to impressively head it in.

Scott Sealy involved in Maccabi Tel-Aviv's victory

Sealy came on in the 69th minute with the score 2:1 in favor of his team against Hapoel Kiryat-Shmone. One minute later it was 3:1, and it proved the winning margin as the game ended 3:2. UPDATE: Highlights are here (clicking opens Windows Media Player). While my namesake scores a couple of goals for Maccabi prior to Sealy's entrance, the Sealy-related highlights, including a shot of his family in the stands, start at exactly 3:00 of the clip. Maccabi is now easily safe as they're 12 points outside the drop zone with eight games to play.

In other news, Michael Parkhurst played the entire game against FCK, the league leaders, only to be on the wrong side of a 3:0 drubbing. Parkhurst's club FCN is now only four points outside the drop zone.

Marcus Tracy will probably start against AGF

It appears that Jeppe Curth is out. As such, Tracy will likely partner with Luton Shelton up top on Sunday. When Curth (top scorer in the entire league last season) is healthy again, either Tracy or Shelton will probably have to make way.

The game is on Sunday at 8 am EST. I'll provide a link and will surely be watching. If I tame ScribeFire by then, I'll do a running commentary as well.
