Suarez 'sorry' for latest incident with Evra

Soccer Betting Lines

02/12/2012 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Liverpool's Luis Suarez apologized Sunday for refusing to shake hands with Manchester United's Patrice Evra prior to an English Premier League match Saturday, admitting he made a mistake and that he was "sorry."

Suarez was suspended eight games earlier this season for racial abuse against Evra and magnified the problem prior to Saturday's game at Old Trafford in the first meeting between the clubs since the previous incident in October.

"I have spoken with [coach Kenny Dalglish] since the game at Old Trafford and I realize I got things wrong," Suarez acknowledged in a statement. "I've not only let him down, but also the club and what it stands for and I'm sorry.

"I should have shaken Patrice Evra's hand before the game and I want to apologize for my actions. I would like to put this whole issue behind me and concentrate on playing football."

Evra celebrated in front of Evra after the match, a 2-1 United win, before he was led away by officials and teammates.

United coach Sir Alex Ferguson criticized Suarez after the match, but Dalglish reacted in a poor manner when asked about the incident. Dalglish also issued an apology Sunday.

"When I went on TV after yesterday's game I hadn't seen what had happened, but I did not conduct myself in a way befitting of a Liverpool manager during that interview and I'd like to apologize for that," he said.

"To be honest," Dalglish added, "I was shocked to hear that the player had not shaken hands having been told earlier in the week that he would."

United responded positively to Liverpool's statements and hopes both clubs can move past the latest problem.

"Everyone at Old Trafford wants to move on from this. The history of our two great clubs is one of success and rivalry unparalleled in British football," the club said in a statement. "That should be the focus in the future of all those who love the clubs."

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title.
