West Brom got absolutely torched

MONTREAL -- FC Edmonton had its first Amway Canadian Championship final within its grasp. But then it all slipped away. Edmonton was winning on aggregate after 90 minutes of play on Wednesday, even though the Montreal Impact were winning the match 3-2. But Patrice Bernier scored late in stoppage time on a penalty kick to give Montreal its second consecutive Amway Canadian Championship final berth. "Its sickening," said Frank Jonke, who scored the games two goals for Edmonton three minutes apart in the second half. "It leaves a sick feeling in everybodys stomach on our team. To lose, to not go through on that, is very sickening for us." Having lost the first leg of the home-and-home series 2-1 in Edmonton last week, the Impact needed a two-goal victory for a spot in the next round. Berniers goal five minutes into stoppage time, effectively the last kick of the game, gave Montreal the 5-4 victory on aggregate over the Eddies. In the dying minutes of added time, Montreals Heath Pearce fired a shot into a crowd of Edmonton defenders in the box. Referee Drew Fischer blew his whistle for handball, ran over to Edmontons Kareem Moses, and then pointed to the penalty spot. "I dont think it was a handball," said Jonke. "I dont think it was a penalty, and I think we should be going through." Edmonton coach Colin Miller also thought his team was robbed. "(Two Edmonton players) saw one of our players with his hands behind his back. And the ball hit him here," said Miller, pointing to his shoulder. "The referee then went to the wrong player to tell him it hit him." Miller was livid with Fischer after the game, and confronted the official as he was leaving the pitch. "Our players in the second half didnt deserve to get beaten in the manner that they did," said Miller. "I had a go at the referee after the game, and rightly so. The job that we do as coaches is hard enough without that decision being made." Impact president Joey Saputo then jumped onto the field and got into a screaming match with Miller. "I wished him a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!" quipped the Edmonton coach. "Im sure Mr. Saputo will buy me a Guinness afterwards." With the win, Montreal (1-0-1) will play either Toronto FC or the Vancouver Whitecaps in the two-leg final on May 28 and June 4. The winner will advance to the CONCACAF Champions League. The Impact went up 3-0 on Wednesday on two first-half goals by Jack McInerney and a 47th minute strike by Jeb Brovsky. Montreal was all but assured victory before Edmonton clawed back in the second half. Jonke scored his first goal in the 67th minute when his shot from just outside the six-yard box deflected off an Impact defender and beat goalie Evan Bush. The Edmonton striker added what would have been the series-clincher three minutes later from the penalty spot, firing right down the middle for his second of the game. The Eddies were awarded a penalty after Impact defender Karl Ouimette took down Neil Hlavaty in the box. Jonkes goals were the first conceded by the Impact at Saputo Stadium in four Canadian Championship matches dating back to 2012 when the team joined MLS. "The game should have been 5-0," said Impact coach Frank Klopas. "It should have been over. It was a lack of concentration. In five minutes, the game changed. We should have never been in this situation. We crumbled. Our mentality has to be stronger." If not for Berniers stoppage-time goal from the spot, the Eddies would have progressed to the next round. "Some guys took their foot off the gas pedal, and we let them right back into it," said McInerney. "We were fortunate to get a goal at the end. Its about time something goes our way this season." Last week in Edmonton, the Eddies scored a stoppage-time goal for the 2-1 victory. McInerney was the lone goal scorer for Montreal in that game, beating goalkeeper John Smits in the 56th minute. It only took 10 minutes for McInerney to score on the return leg at Saputo Stadium, firing home after a Justin Mapp cross missed Felipe in the box but fell right to the 21-year-old instead. "No disrespect to Edmonton, but theyre a lower-level team," said McInerney. "I would expect from myself to go out there and score every game against them." Mapp fed McInerney again seven minutes later, flicking the ball to the on-rushing striker with his heel at the edge of the 18-yard box. McInerney gave no chance to Smits, beating the Eddies keeper with a quick strike. As winners of last years Canadian Championship, the Impact made it to the CONCACAF Champions League for the second time in the continental tournaments six-year history, where they were eliminated in the group stage.

Rankings were weighted evenly between separate lists made by TSN Radio host and soccer analyst Gareth Wheeler as well as TSN.cas soccer editors. 1. Arsenal (Last Week- 1) The Gunners remained atop the table thanks to a clean-sheet at home over Crystal Palace. Arsenal once again pounced on lesser opposition, after their Week 8 win over Norwich sent them back to the top of TSNs rankings. Mikel Arteta scored a penalty and was then sent off on a straight-red when he was adjudged to have denied a goal-scoring opportunity. 2. Chelsea (LW- 2) Fernando Torres had himself a game at Stamford Bridge, helping Chelsea hold firm at number two both in the table (where they are level with Liverpool) and in our rankings. The Spaniard set up a pretty marker for Andre Schuerrle in the first half before a Joe Hart howler gifted him the winner in the 90th minute. 3. Liverpool (LW- 4) Luis Suarez was in top form on Saturday as his hat trick provided more than enough backing for the Reds 4-1 victory over West Brom at Anfield. The win bumped them up a spot in the rankings as the Merseysiders kept a share of second in the Premiership with the win. 4. Tottenham (LW- 5) It took a Roberto Soldado penalty, but Spurs was able to salvage three points over Hull at White Hart lane on Sunday. It was a tense 80 minutes of scoreless play before Soldados spot strike, but the victory helped keep Tottenham just a point back second and within one win of a share of first at 19 points. 5. Manchester City (LW- 3) The already ticking clock on Joe Harts subpar season spun its gears a bit faster on Sunday after his 90th-minute gaffe wound up on Fernando Torres foot and in the back of the net. The goal gave Chelsea full points and dropped City not only to seventh in the table but, more troublingly, a mere two points ahead of their struggling cross-town rivals. 6. Southampton (LW- 6) Jay Rodriguez and Rickie Lambert scored to propel the Saints to yet another win and – at the time of the victory - to third in the Premier League standings. While Spurs and Chelsea both pulled back ahead on Sunday, the St. Marys faithful will be more than pleased with a share of fifth at nearly the quarter-mark of the season. 7. Everton (LW- 7) Romelu Lukaku scored his fifth goal in five games and substitute Leon Osman added an insurance marker for Everton in their 2-0 road win at Villa Park. The victory helps them hold on to the seventh spot in the rankings and a share of fifth in the table ahead of both Manchester clubs. 8. Manchester United (LW- 8) It was another nail-biter at Old Trafford but once David Moyes decided to go all-in on his offensive firepower, the Red Devils were able to turn the tide and earn three points. Second-half goals from Wayne Rooney and Chicharito got United just its second home win of the campaign. 9. Swansea City- (LW- 12) A goalless home draw may not be a lot to show for a weeks work from Swansea, but the draw against West Ham was good enough to keep them in the top half of the table as the Swans withstood 15 attempts at goal to earn the point. 10. Hull City (LW- 13) If youre going to get hhung with a loss there are far less tolerable ways to do so than losing a one-goal game at White Hart Lane by virtue of a penalty.dddddddddddd Hull remains in a tie for ninth in the table and has had an admirable year so far, losing only to teams ahead of them like Man City, Chelsea and Everton in addition to Spurs. 11. Aston Villa (LW- 11) Villas 2-0 loss against Everton may have prevented them from keeping pace with the top half of the table but the team is still being buoyed by early season upsets over Arsenal and Man City. 12. West Bromwich Albion (LW- 9) West Brom got absolutely torched by Luis Suarez and Liverpool last weekend, but the team still had a productive October earning points from each of their remaining October games including an improbable win over Manchester United. 13. Newcastle United (LW- 10) It had to be someone, didnt it? Newcastle became the first team to fall to Sunderland in the 2013-14 season, losing a 2-1 road match thanks to Fabio Borinis late derby decider. 14. Fulham (LW- 14) Fulham saw its two-game winning streak snapped with a loss to Southampton at St. Marys. Putting just two shots towards the net and absolutely none on target is not exactly a way to win at Englands top level, so its of little surprise to see Fulhams run come to an end. 15. West Ham United (LW- 15) The Hammers were able to leave Swansea with a point, by virtue of the scoreless draw against the surprising Swans. The November schedule will be a bit kinder to West Ham with three of their four matches coming at Upton Park. 16. Cardiff City (LW- 18) Cardiff did well to get a point in Week 9 despite getting outshot 31-6 in their visit to Norwich. The Welshmen were unable to extricate themselves from the log-jam thats developed between 12th and 18th in the table (a two-point difference) but road points are always a nice bonus for a newly-promoted squad. 17. Stoke City (LW- 16) They thought they were destined to become the latest cellar-dwelling world beaters as Stoke looked on, 15 minutes from victory at Old Trafford. Then David Moyes pulled out all the stops, adding Javier Hernandez and Adnan Januzaj to a side that already featured the likes of Rooney, Shinji Kagawa and RVP. The goals came fast and the points vanished faster. 18. Norwich City (LW- 17) Former Canary David Marshall made a point of frustrating his former team, making 10 saves and holding Norwich to a scoreless draw at home. Could they have gotten more than a third of their 31 attempts actually on the target, perhaps one might have snuck by, but they didnt and a goalless affair is what they got. 19. Sunderland (LW- 20) Go crazy, Sunderland fans! Youre finally on the board! Borini came off the bench to end the two months of misery at the Stadium of Light and vault them out of the Premiership basement. 20. Crystal Palace (LW- 19) The run of futility upped itself to six in Week 9 for Crystal Palace, who were blanked at home by the table-topping Gunners. The good news for the Eagles could be that they dont see a premiership giant like Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea or Spurs until mid-December, but that could merely be good news for the mid-table teams that have Palace to look forward to.
