Vancouver, BC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The U.S. women's national team punched its ticket for the 2012 Summer Olympics on Friday with a 3-0 win over Costa Rica in the semifinals of CONCACAF Olympic qualifying. After outscoring its three opponents in the group stage by a combined score of 31-0, the Americans ran into a determined Costa Rica side that made them work for their place in London.
Costa Rica goalkeeper Erika Miranda got a palm to the ball, but Heath was on hand to head it over the goal line and put the U.S. in front.
The lead almost disappeared 11 minutes later when a shot from Costa Rica's Karol Sanchez struck the crossbar, leaving the two teams separated by a goal at the break.
The ball only made it as far as Lloyd at the edge of the area though, and she beat Miranda with a left-footed shot that calmed the nerves of the U.S. team with Morgan adding a late goal that made the final score a bit deceiving.
The lead was doubled 10 minutes after the break when David Healy tracked down a long ball from Sasa Papac and beat Brown with the 'keeper out of position, while Hibs was reduced to 10 men in the 71st minute as James McPake picked up a second yellow card.
Aluko scored on the ensuing free kick to make it 3-0, and Davis added to the misery for the visitors by capping the scoring in stoppage time with his second goal of the contest.
Aberdeen 1, Dunfermline 0
Aberdeen moves into the top half of the table with the win, while Dunfermline has dropped seven of its last eight games and remains on the bottom of the league.
Inverness, Scotland - Inverness and St Mirren each moved a point further from the bottom as the two sides played to a 0-0 draw at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium on Saturday.
