Beister set up Van der Vaart to equalize for the third

Former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre vacated his title in December, a month after a controversial split decision victory over Johny Hendricks. It is a decision that has allowed the Canadian MMA star to find a little peace in his life. "Im very happy, Im sleeping better, I dont regret anything," said St-Pierre to TSN.ca. "Im very happy with the decision I made." The time away from the cage has allowed the Saint-Isidore, Quebec native to focus on other interests. During the Sochi 2014 Olympics, St-Pierre put his money where his ........ is regarding the Canadian mens hockey team. He made a jersey bet with one of his friends during the Canada vs. USA semifinal game and one with UFC light-heavyweight number one contender Alexander Gustafsson, a native of Arboga, Sweden, over the gold medal game. St-Pierres belief in the Canadian national hockey team never wavered and was rewarded. "I was confident enough to make the bet," said St-Pierre. "I was happy that I won." As for representing Canada on an international stage, St-Pierre sees himself a little different than those athletes that wore the maple leaf during the Olympics. "My sport is not a team sport, I dont represent a county and I have fans around the world," said St-Pierre. "I try to present a good image for anyone that looks up to me wherever they are from. Im doing it for myself and my fans." At UFC 171 Hendricks, who narrowly lost to St-Pierre in what was also his last bout, will take on Robbie Lawler for the vacated welterweight title. The former champ will be a very interested observer. "Im going to watch the fight because its a fight I want to see and its going to be a good fight." As for picking a favourite, GSP gives a slight edge to the last man he faced before turning over the title. "Striking wise they both have the capacity to knock each other out. Ill give the edge to Hendricks because he has an edge in the wrestling and grappling." Colin Kaepernick 49ers Jersey .

"When there are six goals its always fantastic for the fans but the coaches will be annoyed because there were so many mistakes," said Stuttgart sports director Fredi Bobic. The visitors took a three-minute lead through Alexandru Maxims fine strike before Tolgay Arslan set up Pierre-Michel Lasogga to equalize in the 22nd after a mistake from William Kvist. Stuttgart reclaimed the lead 15 minutes later when Christian Gentner got his head to Maxims dangerous free kick, only for Maximilian Beister to score in the 55th with Arslan again involved. Rafael van der Vaart, Jonathan Tah and Beister all came close for Hamburg, but then Vedad Ibisevic forced Johan Djourou into an own goal against the run of play in the 64th. "It was a very crazy game," Maxim said. Beister set up Van der Vaart to equalize for the third time three minutes later, ensuring fellow Dutchman Van Marwijk is undefeated after three games in charge, though Hamburg remains just one place above the relegation zone. Stuttgart defender Antonio Ruediger was sent off late on for punching Van der Vaart in the stomach. &quoot;We were jostling, I pushed back, he punched me.dddddddddddd That was that," said Van der Vaart, who collapsed as if seriously wounded. Wolfsburg came from behind to snatch a 2-1 win at Augsburg in the late game. Tobias Werner gave the home side a deserved lead in the 10th, scoring from a rebound after Halil Altintop and Matthias Ostrzoleks initial efforts were saved by Diego Benaglio. Werner should have scored again minutes later but miscued his shot with only the goalkeeper to beat from close range, and he missed another chance, as did Altintop, before Maximilian Arnold equalized with a long-range effort in the 35th. "You could see there was uncertainty there for the first 20 minutes, but after that, the team showed what it can do," said Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking. Luiz Gustavo was left unmarked to meet Ricardo Rodriguez free kick for his first Wolfsburg goal in the 42nd. The Brazilians last goal was also against Augsburg, in May, while playing for Bayern Munich. Augsburg pushed hard for an equalizer in a gritty second half but the visitors held on for their first away win of the season. "You need effectiveness in the Bundesliga. We didnt show it today and so deserved to lose," said Augsburg coach Markus Weinzierl. China Jerseys ' ' '
