Eintracht rallies to beat Borussia DortmundSoccer Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Dortmund, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sebastian Jung and Alexander Meier scored goals in the final 25 minutes to help Eintracht complete a 3-2 comeback victory against Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park on Sunday. The visitors went ahead in the eighth minute with a goal from Benjamin Kohler, but after Mats Hummels equalized nine minutes later, Lucas Barrios handed Dortmund a 2-1 lead with a little over 30 minutes to play. However, Jung leveled the contest in the 65th minute and Meier scored the winner nine minutes later, moving Eintracht three places up the Bundesliga table and into seventh. Patrick Ochs set up the opening goal with a right-wing cross to the middle of the penalty area where he found Kohler, who had plenty of space to head the ball inside the left post. Hummels equalized nine minutes later from a corner kick as Eintracht failed to properly clear the ball and Mohamed Zidan played it to the feet of Hummels, who scored from inside the six-yard box. Halil Altintop poked a shot past Dortmund goalkeeper Marc Ziegler, but Hummels retreated in time to clear the ball off the goal line. Altintop had another opportunity with a free header from the middle of the area, but he missed the target, while Barrios notched his 11th goal of the campaign to put Dortmund in front in the 57th minute after a nice pass from Zidan. Jung was able to pull the visitors level minutes later when his free kick took a deflection off of Dortmund's Nuri Sahin and found its way past Ziegler, and they went in front in the 74th minute when Altintop played Meier in on goal and he beat the keeper with a shot inside the far post. Dortmund had one final chance to snatch a point in stoppage time, but Felipe Santana headed over the goal from inside the six-yard box. Sunday's other contest saw Mainz climb into eighth place as Bo Svensson's goal right before halftime was enough to give his team a 1-0 win over Monchengladbach.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year AwardsOddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite. Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award. Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1. Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award. Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1. All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY. A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
