04/26/2009 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Luciano Emilio and Chris Pontius scored in closing seconds and D.C. United rallied for a 3-2 win over Red Bull New York on Sunday at Giants Stadium.
Juan Pablo Angel and Dane Richards scored six minutes apart earlier in the half as New York erased a first-half goal by United's Rodney Wallace, but D.C. added the two goals in the 90th and 91st minutes.
D.C. United (2-1-3) moved to third in the Eastern Conference. New York (1-4-2) remained one point ahead of winless Columbus at the bottom of the East.
United grabbed the lead in the 21st minute when Bryan Namoff played a long ball out of the back to Santino Quaranta, who settled well on the edge of the box to pick out Wallace.
Wallace just had to tap the ball into the net at the left post for his first of the season.
New York struggled in the first half, but substitute Macoumba Kandji helped get the offense going in the second half. He set up Angel five minutes after half, but Angel's close-range effort was cleared off the line by Namoff.
Angel didn't miss in the 68th, though. The New York striker met a free kick on the far side of the area, outleaped a D.C. defender and picked out the right side of the net for his second goal of the season.
Angel played a part in the second goal in the 74th, forcing D.C. goalie Louis Crayton to make a save that left a rebound for Richards. Richards ran onto the loose ball and tapped in from just a few yards out for his first of the year.
New York was just seconds away from its second win when Emilio and Pontius gave D.C. a spectacular win. Pontius started the first goal with a looping pass over the area that Quaranta played with a perfect one-time pass into the box. Emilio finished with a one-time shot despite having New York's Alfredo Pacheco on his back.
United added the game-winner in the 91st minute when Thabiso Khumalo played the ball down the left side to Emilio, who made a quick touch to play the ball into the middle of the box away from goalie Jon Conway. Pontius ran onto the ball to place it into an empty net for his second goal of the season.
D.C. will try to build on the win May 2 when it hosts FC Dallas. New York hopes to bounce back when it visits Los Angeles on May 2.

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).
As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).
Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.
A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.
Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.
"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.
De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.
The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.
The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.
De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.
Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.
But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
