AValencia, Spain (SportsNetwork.com) - Valencia continued its push for a Champions League spot on Saturday as Alvaro Negredo came off the bench to rescue a 3-2 win over Almeria with a goal in the 83rd minute at the Mestalla. The two sides shared four first-half goals as Valencia struck through Dani Parejo and Rodrigo Moreno, while Tomer Hemed was on target twice in the opening 45 minutes for Almeria. But with the match seemingly headed for a draw, Negredo came through with his second goal of the season for Los Che with seven minutes to play, moving the club level with third-place Atletico Madrid on 38 points. It took the home side 11 minutes to move in front when Parejo played a ball wide to Antonio Barragan and then raced to the near post to latch onto a cross and redirect the ball into the net. But Almeria had an answer two minutes later as Wellington Silva got down the left wing and delivered a near-post cross for Hemed to poke past goalkeeper Diego Alves. The goals continued in the 28th minute and Valencia regained the lead when Paco Alcacer was released into the area and squared the ball for Rodrigo to slot home. However, Almeria hit back again within five minutes as Hemeds deflected header left Alves with no chance in the Valencia net and he was left to watch it sail into the top corner. Hemed nearly completed his hat trick by nodding a ball off the crossbar late in the first half, but Valencia introduced Negredo with 30 minutes to play and he made his impact felt, twice testing goalkeeper Julian Cuesta before heading home the winning goal in the 83rd from a Jose Luis Gaya cross. Villarreal kept itself firmly in the race for a European spot with a 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao on Saturday as Denis Cheryshev scored a few minutes before halftime for the Yellow Submarine and Bruno Soriano converted a penalty kick seven minutes from time to seal the win. Manucho scored the lone goal in the 81st minute of Rayo Vallecanos 1-0 victory at Real Sociedad in a battle of mid-table sides, while Espanyol secured a 1-0 win over Celta Vigo thanks to a late goal from Felipe Caicedo.

Cheap Allen Iverson Jersey .com) - The New York Rangers hope to punch their ticket to the second round when they visit the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday for a Game 6 battle at Wells Fargo Center.ARLINGTON, Texas -- Nick Tepesch and Robbie Ross helped the Texas Rangers hold off the Seattle Mariners. Tepesch, back from the minor leagues, earned his first major league victory in more than 10 months and the Rangers edged the Seattle Mariners 4-3 on Wednesday. Ross, back in the bullpen after an unsuccessful stint in the rotation, bailed Tepesch out of a seventh-inning jam. Neal Cotts, whose ERA has ballooned from 1.11 in 2013 to 4.34 this season, had a strong eighth. Joakim Soria, back in a closers role this year for the first time since 2011, pitched a perfect ninth inning for his eighth save in eight opportunities. The Rangers offence had three first-inning runs and Shin-Soo Choos leadoff home run in the bottom of the fifth that broke a 3-3 tie. Choos fifth homer went into the bullpen in left-centre. "Two strikes, I was in a rough spot. I think about more (getting) on base," he said. "Got a home run that got up in that gust a little bit, thats it," Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. "Its a tough ballpark to pitch in, but I thought (Chris Young) did a pretty darn good job for us. Texas turned two double plays. The second was on Ross second pitch after entering the game with one out and runners on first and second for the Mariners. Pinch hitter Stefen Romero grounded to Adrian Beltre, who stepped on third base and threw to first to complete the inning-ending double play. "I was thinking, Gosh, here we go! Im in a situation where I like to be. I was pretty amped," Ross said. "I wanted to be out of that inning without those runs scoring." Tepesch (1-0) allowed five hits and two walks in 6 1-3 innings for his first win since defeating Houston 10-5 on July 5, 2013. The second-year pitcher threw a career-high 112 pitches. It was his second start this season for the Rangers after being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock, where he was 6-1. Texas manager Ron Washington has noticed a difference. "He has an out pitch right now. Hes got that slider working, and hes able to llocate his sinker.dddddddddddd With that going on and commanding the baseball, I think theres the difference right there." Washington visited Tepesch on the mound with one out in the seventh and Dustin Ackley coming up. Tepesch assured the manager he was OK. Then he walked both Ackley and John Buck. "I just wanted to know how he was feeling," Washington said. "Did he think he had enough to get this lefty up there? Because I had a lefty ready. The look in his eyes, he convinced me, and I had to end up getting Robbie to bail me out." After that, it was Cotts striking out Robinson Cano, who had homered earlier, and Seager, who entered the game with a .358 average in Arlington, with a runner on second base in the eighth. Against former Rangers right-hander Chris Young (3-2), Daniel Robertson led off the first with a walk and scored on Elvis Andrus homer. Alex Rios singled home the third run. Seattle tied it in the fourth. James Jones tripled and scored on Michael Saunders single. Cano then hit his two-run homer. Center fielder Michael Choice ran back to attempt a catch, but his glove hit the wall as the ball barely cleared it. Seattle had only one baserunner against Tepesch in the first three innings: Seager on a leadoff single in the second. He was erased in an unusual 4-5-3 double play. With Texas defence shifted to the right, Smoak grounded to second baseman Luis Sardinas, who threw to Beltre covering second. Beltres relay throw to first beat Smoak. Young gave up seven hits and three walks in 6 1-3 innings. "You have those games where if you can limit the damage early, you feel like youll pitch a good game, and I gave up one too many in the first," Young said. NOTES: Rangers first baseman Prince Fielder (neck) missed a fourth consecutive game, and centre fielder Leonys Martin (stiff neck) was not in the starting lineup for the second game in a row. Martin entered the game as a defensive replacement in the ninth. ... The teams split the two-game series.
