MADRID, Spain -- Goals by Patrick Ebert and Oscar Gonzalez gave Valladolid a 2-1 win at Sevilla in the Spanish League on Monday. Valladolid began the match looking sharp with fast-paced attacks, and Ebert wrong-footed defender Fernando Navarro and beat the goalkeeper by firing low inside the far post in the second minute. Gonzalez took his tally to a club-leading seven goals by deftly lobbing goalkeeper Diego Lopez in the 12th minute. Sevilla pulled one back in the 50th when Valladolids Mateus "Manucho" Goncalves scored an own goal by accidentally heading in a corner. "We knew it was going to be tough," said Manucho. "Now we have to take on Real Madrid on Saturday and itll be a real battle between lions." Gary Medel was sent off after earning a second yellow card in the 64th minute for a clumsy tackle from behind on Manucho. "Valladolid played very well in the opening half hour and left us rushing around trying to catch up," said Sevilla coach Jose "Michel" Gonzalez. Barcelona leads the standings on 40 points, six ahead of second-place Atletico Madrid. Real Madrid is third place on 29 and Valladolid rose to seventh on 21 points. Sevilla is 11th on 18.

They will face United States, the defending champions. "I think we are in shock right now," said Sinclair. "To win the way we did, Im just speechless." Unlike their final group game draw against Sweden, Canada started the quarter-final in control from the opening kick. In the 12th minute, Canadian forward Filigno got on the end of a corner from midfielder Sophie Schmidt at the top of the box, and fired it into the top right hand corner of the net for Canadas opening marker. Following the goal the Canadians were able to maintain pressure on a Great Britain back-line that was having trouble dealing with the pace of the attacking forwards. Just 14 minutes after the opening goal, defender Desiree Scott charged down the middle of the field and earned Canada a free kick just outside the Great Britain box. Canadian Captain Sinclair stepped up in the 26th minute and calmly fired a beautiful bending ball into the net to the left of a motionless Karen Bardsley, the Great Britain keeper who did not make a move towards the shot until it was out of her reach and into the net. The goal doubled Canadas advantage before the half and silenced a mostly partisan crowd of more than 28-thousand at City of Coventry Stadium in Coventry, England. It was the Burnaby, B.C. natives 140th international goal for Canada, moving her within two of American Abby Wambach for second on the all-time scoring list. "At the start of the game we knew we couldnt afford to go behind,especially in front of this crowd," said Siinclair.dddddddddddd "Thats why we started on fire." Following halftime, Canadas defensive play took over including standout performances from defender Lauren Sesselmann and midfielder Desiree Scott who were involved in many tackles breaking up attacks in their own end. "Being 2-0 up was always going to be hard to defend but we did it," said Scott. "Minute to minute, we left everything we had out there on the pitch. I am so proud." Keeper Erin McLeod got the call in the Canadian net, her third start and first win and clean sheet of the tournament. She was solid when called into action against Great Britain in the quarter-final victory. Great Britains best offensive chances came late in the game, including an 85th minute play in the box where forward Eniola Aluka went down under the challenge of Canadian defender Rhian Wilkinson and appealed for a penalty. The referee ruled that no foul occurred on the play and the game was allowed to continue. Following that, the home side created a scramble in front of McLeods goal but the St. Albert, Alberta native was able to pounce on the ball to help preserve the clean sheet. Great Britain midfielder Jill Scott feels her team did everything they could to get back into the game. "They had a gameplan and it worked so they stuck to it," said Sunderland, England native Scott. "We gave our all to get a goal back to give ourselves a chance." With the victory, Canada now advances to a semi-final showdown with United States on Monday, August 6th at Old Trafford in Manchester, England. "USA are obviously favourites for the tournament and are on fire right now," said Sinclair. "But we know them very well and we deserve to be there." ' ' '
