Marta, Milbrett help FC Gold Pride topple Freedom

Soccer Betting Lines

07/25/2010 - Boyds, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two goals apiece from Marta and Tiffeny Milbrett allowed FC Gold Pride to claim a comfortable 4-1 win over the Washington Freedom at Maryland Soccerplex.

Milbrett opened the scoring 18 minutes into the match, and after Washington equalized through Abby Wambach shortly before halftime, the Bay Area side dominated the second half with two goals from Marta and another from Milbrett.

Gold Pride has now won its last five games and sits 13 points clear at the top of the Women's Professional Soccer standings.

Milbrett was set up with a good ball from Christine Sinclair in the 18th minute, but after her initial shot was saved by Freedom goalkeeper Erin McLeod, Milbrett easily headed home the rebound.

Washington leveled the match three minutes before halftime as Gold Pride goalkeeper Nicole Barnhart was only able to get a hand on Beverly Goebel's cross, leaving Wambach with a simple tap in at the back post.

However, the second half belonged to Gold Pride as a good individual effort from Marta put the visitors in the lead. She first dribbled past a number of defenders before getting to the end line and driving the ball between the legs of McLeod from a tight angle.

Sinclair had a hand in Marta's second goal as she played the Brazilian through on goal and watched her slot her shot past McLeod for her league-leading 13th goal of the season.

Milbrett then capped the scoring in the 89th minute with a neat chip into the upper-right corner of the net.

Amy Rodriguez had a pair of goals in a 4-1 win for the Philadelphia Independence over Sky Blue FC, keeping the Independence in second place, while the Boston Breakers took over third with a 3-1 win against the Chicago Red Stars behind two goals from Kelly Smith.
