The Western Sydney Wanderers are preparing to give giants of world soccer and multimillionaires Hulk and Oscar a Campbelltown welcome.The Blacktown-based club have been drawn in Group F for the upcoming edition of the Asian Champions League, pitting them against Korean champions FC Seoul and a likely match up against Chinese giants Shanghai SIPG.Shanghai SIPG are one of three sides in contention for a playoff spot but shape as the most likely to advance to the group stage.The wealthy Chinese club are headed by former Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas and boast the likes of Brazilian striker Hulk, who demands over $500,000 a week.The club is also close to reuniting Villas-Boas with former charge Oscar, who is set to join Shanghai after Chelsea reportedly accepted a record $85 million transfer fee.Its 90 per cent certain, Oscar said of the potential deal. It just depends on a few bureaucratic details.Their presence would ensure a packed house at the 20,000 capacity Campbelltown Stadium, which will host the Wanderers ACL group games.Weve proven before what an Australian club can do in the Asian Champions League regardless of who youre up against or regardless of the resources youre up against, Wanderers coach Tony Popovic said.Thats the challenge we have once again - to possibly come up against a really big team, a team that wants to do what weve done and thats win the champions league.Thats why theyre being linked to players such as Oscar and well welcome him to Campbelltown with open arms.Popovic said they had learnt a lot from their previous two ACL campaigns, in particular their 2014 win.While they were crowned champions of Asia, they failed to back up in the 2014-15 A-League season, finishing second last.I think you know what to expect by being in there a couple of times, Popovic said.It doesnt make it any easier logistically. The travel is still the same, youre still trying to play two competitions - which is tough.In the two previous occasions weve been there, weve embraced the challenge of this competition brings both on and off the field. Sam Mills Womens Jersey . However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1. Archie Manning Youth Jersey . After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year. http://www.shoptheofficialsaints.com/Elite-Sheldon-Rankins-Saints-Jersey/ . Malkin got tangled up with Detroits Luke Glendening early in the third period and his left skate took the brunt of collision with the boards behind Pittsburghs net. Taysom Hill Jersey . - Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie never doubted he would bring back coach Dennis Allen for a third year despite back-to-back 4-12 records. Sam Mills Jersey .Y. -- Sabres forward Drew Stafford has witnessed plenty of turmoil during his eight seasons in Buffalo. NEW YORK -- The team meeting New York Mets manager Terry Collins called following Thursday afternoons lopsided loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks had the desired effect in terms of the Mets effort, if not the on-field result, Friday night.Perhaps the combination of a stirring offense and an ace pitcher on the mound Saturday will allow New York to stop the losing streak that threatens to ruin its season.The Mets, losers of four straight and six of seven, will look to begin climbing back into contention when they host the San Diego Padres in the middle game of a three-game series at Citi Field on Saturday night.The Padres hit four homers in the first three innings Friday night and hung on for an 8-6 win. With the loss, the Mets (57-58) fell to 10-20 since July 8 and slipped under .500 for the first time since April 17.Still, the Mets took some solace in how they came back from deficits of 5-0 and 8-2 to send the tying run to the plate in the sixth as well as from the relief work of Seth Lugo, Erik Goeddel and Hansel Robles.The trio of right-handers combined to retire the final 19 Padres batters after Logan Verrett was torched for eight runs in 2 2/3 innings.We feel that the turning around is on its way, second baseman Neil Walker said of the Mets, who fell to 24-1 this season when scoring more than five runs. We hit some balls really hard tonight and did some pretty good things when we got some traffic on the base paths. And after the first several innings, we did a good job of keeping them off the board.ddddddddddddAnother positive for the Mets should be the presence of Jacob deGrom on the mound. DeGrom has allowed one run or fewer in six of his last eight starts to lower his ERA to 2.35, the fourth-best mark in the National League.DeGrom is scheduled to be opposed by Padres right-hander Jarred Cosart, who will be looking for his first major league win in almost 11 months.Cosart will be making his third start for San Diego, which acquired him from Miami on July 29. He has not won since Sept. 17. 2015.While deGrom appears to have the edge over Cosart, the Padres (50-65) will hope to draw on the chemistry and confidence theyve built over the last two months.San Diego, which fully embarked upon a rebuilding plan by trading veterans such as James Shields, Matt Kemp, Fernando Rodney, Andrew Cashner and Drew Pomeranz this season, has the second-best record in the NL West (23-23) since June 18.Its a different team, said Padres second baseman Ryan Schimpf, who hit a grand slam in the first inning and a two-run homer in the third inning.(Not to) take away anything with the other guys, we enjoyed our time with them. (Trades are a) part of baseball. Weve got a good clubhouse here. Its fun to come to work with the guys everyday and battle it out and try to get some wins. ' ' '
