Tottenham overcame cold conditions to maintain its billing as the Europa Leagues top contender thanks to a confident victory on Thursday, when a goalkeeping gaffe sparked Valencia to its first win. Discount Air Max 1 . The Engloish Premier League club, which has spent heavily this off-season and sold Gareth Bale, wasnt the only team to make it two-for-two in wins: Genk, Fiorentina, Eintracht Frankfurt, Rubin Kazan, Sevilla, Swansea, Salzburg, and Ludogorets Razgrad are also perfect. Also, Sergio Floccari capped a frenetic contest with a flourish of goals as the Lazio substitute scored late for the Italian side to draw 3-3 at Trabzonspor, while Wigan picked up its first ever European victory. Jermaine Defoe and Nacer Chadli scored first-half goals to pace Tottenham to a 2-0 win against Anji Makhachkala in near freezing temperatures on the outskirts of Moscow, with the conflict in Dagestan forcing the once money-laden club away from home. Tottenham manager Andres Villas-Boas rotated his squad and the strong performance showed how deep the Portuguese managers bench is, although it was left to old hand Defoe to steer the visitors with his 21st goal in European competitions in the 34th minute moving him within one goal of Martin Chivers club record. While Anzi showed some resilience, the fall from grace for the cash-strapped club was evident as Tottenham kept a second straight clean sheet. „The conditions were difficult but we had a great first half, where we created a lot, kept the ball well and deserved the lead,“ Villas-Boas said. „A win is what we wanted, and it gives us the opportunity in the next games against Sheriff to ensure qualification. That is extremely important for us.“ Valencia enjoyed its own trip to Russia, bouncing back from a blowout loss to Swansea with a 2-0 win at Kuban Krasnodar. Paco Alcacer could just about walk his 73rd-minute goal into the net after Kuban goalkeeper Aleksandr Belenov misjudged a clearance well outside the area. Sofiane Feghouli also netted for the Spanish side to get back into the mix in Group A, which sees Swansea top after its 1-0 win over St-Gallen. Fiorentina also kept its place as one of the competition favourites after overcoming the absences of injured strikers Mario Gomez and Giuseppe Rossi to win 2-1 at Dnipro in the Ukraine. Massimo Ambrosinis run was picked out by Borja Valero for the former AC Milan player to score the 73rd-minute winner for Fiorentina, which hung on after David Pizarro was sent off with four minutes to play. Of 24 games on Thursday, only seven home teams managed victory with eight visiting teams earning all three points. Bordeaux fell 2-1 to visiting Maccabi Tel Aviv to leave the French club in trouble with zero points. Lyon, meanwhile, did only a little better in drawing 1-1 against Guimaraes. Dimitris Salpingidis has scored many clutch goals for Greece, and the stocky striker did it for his club PAOK on Thursday when an injury-time goal cancelled out Jeffrey Gouweleeuws score in the 82nd as the Dutch club looked on course for three points. At Sevilla, Fallou Diagnes sending off in the 62nd led to Diego Perottis penalty score, and Sevilla held on to beat Freiburg 2-0 with Colombian striker Carlos Bacca adding the second in stoppage time. Sevillas second victory in the competition is twice as many as it has managed in seven league games this season. „This victory will allow us to gain some confidence and improve,“ Sevilla coach Unai Emery said. Wigans 3-1 victory over Slovenian champion Maribor also came on its first ever home game in Europe. PSV Eindhoven bounced back from a home loss to Bulgarian minnow Ludogorets Razgrad with a 2-0 win at Chornomorets Odesa. Ludogorets Razgrad continued its encouraging start with a 3-0 victory against Dinamo Zagreb in Group B. Discount Shoes Online Australia . Only it wasnt the extended right pad of his old teammate Jonathan Bernier early in the final frame, it was James Reimer, who stole a night that was supposed to belong to the former King. Air Max 95 Australia . Notes on P.K. Subban, Dale Weise, Erik Haula, Mikael Granlund, Ilya Bryzgalov and more.BEIJING — Canadas Kevin Koe had to settle for fourth place at the world mens curling championship after falling 7-5 to Switzerland in Sundays bronze-medal match. Koes Calgary rink came into the 10th end down by three, but couldnt muster the comeback, scoring just a single point in the final end against the Swiss team. Switzerland stole single points in the first two ends, and padded their lead with deuces in the sixth and ninth ends en route to the victory. „We definitely didnt want to lose that game,“ said lead Nolan Thiessen. „But after yesterday, it was tough to get fired up. But no excuses. They played better than us.“ Canada had two chances on Saturday to reach Sundays gold-medal game, but fell short to Norways Thomas Ulsrud in the 1-2 Page playoff game, and then to Swedens Oskar Eriksson in the semifinal. Ulsrud led from start to finish in defeating Sweden 8-3 to claim the gold medal later Sunday. „I thought we played well in the one-two game and the semi,“ sad Koe. „We were very close. But in games like that where the other teams are playing well, you have to make the last shot of the end sometimes and we let our chances sliip away. Air Jordan 1 Australia. “ Despite failing to medal at the world championships, Canadian coach Rick Lang says theres no reason to push any panic buttons, considering Canada has finished in the top six at every international curling event this season. „Twenty-four hours ago, we were within a shot or two of being in the final here,“ said Lang. „And then we have a bad 24 hours and that chat starts. But we had a great team here. They didnt play like themselves the last couple days, but they were worthy Brier champions. „We sent a great team here. They just didnt have a good day, and that can happen to anybody. The level of competition here is strong and getting stronger. We just have to answer the bell, thats all.“ Koe said he was proud of the way the team performed in Beijing. „Thats the way weve always done things,“ he said. „Some people might not like our style or our game, but we fight. Its not always the prettiest, but we get things done. „Im proud of the guys. We had a great run. World championship, two Brier titles, a Brier final — obviously this was very disappointing, but its been a great team.“ ‚ ‚ ‚
