Nico Rosberg is still refusing to adopt a conservative mentality as he closes in on a maiden world championship, saying he wants to win the title properly with victory in Brazil.The German driver leads Lewis Hamilton by 19 points with two races to spare, knowing he can finish second and third at the remaining two rounds to win the title. He will be crowned champion a race early if he wins on Sunday and has repeatedly stated he is not going to back off.When asked after FP2 if he will race safe in Brazil and do what he needs to become champion, Rosberg said: No, I want to win properly.Though hes topped just one practice session since his last win at Suzuka, with Hamilton going quickest in both on Friday at Interlagos, Rosberg rubbished the suggestion hes nursing his engine to guard against reliability issues.Definitely not. Still trying to be the fastest and still trying to win on Sunday.Friday revealed little about the rest of the weekend, with the hotter temperatures of the afternoon opening the gap between Mercedes and Red Bull. With cooler temperatures and rain forecast for the rest of the weekend Rosberg feels the day was not a true indicator of the pecking order.When asked if Red Bull or Williams, who impressed in FP2, would pose the biggest threat on Sunday, he replied: The main threat is Lewis! After that then there is still the Red Bulls, but lets see.We still need to do a lot of work, tomorrow morning in the colder conditions, lets see, that could make it more interesting. In terms of competitors its difficult to say, Red Bull looked very very quick and close this morning and then this afternoon they were a bit further away, so were not quite sure. Artemi Panarin Jersey . Scott won the Australian PGA last week in his first event in Australia since winning the U.S. Masters in April. American Matt Kuchar, ahead by two strokes with four to play and even with Scott with one to go, double-bogeyed the 18th after taking two shots to get out of a bunker. Adidas Zach Werenski Jersey . Still, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke thought taking him out before the fifth inning was an unusual move. "Im looking up at the board and hes got two hits given up and one run, and Im taking him out after the fourth inning," Roenicke said. http://www.cheapbluejacketsjerseys.com/ . The judges scored it 48-47, 48-47, 49-46 for Jones (19-1). It was the champions closest call. Despite the loss, it was a remarkable show by the confident Swedish challenger, who had the best of the early rounds and then hung on in the fourth and fifth. Scott Harrington Jersey . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. Ryan Murray Jersey . Cote was eligible to become a free agent Feb. 15. Cote helped running back Jon Cornish run for a league-high 1,813 rushing yards en route to being named the leagues most outstanding player. TORONTO -- As homecomings go, the MLS Cup final is going to be hard to beat for Seattles Stefan Frei.Frei made critical saves in regulation and then again in the penalty-kick shootout to help the Sounders win their first championship with a 5-4 victory in the tiebreaker against Toronto FC on Saturday night.The Swiss goalkeeper, who was drafted by Toronto in 2009 and spent five seasons with the club until he was traded in 2013, earned the games MVP honors.This is what you want to be a part of, he said. Weve made Sounders history and for me it could have happened anywhere, I dont care as long as Im with my team and my teammates.Roman Torres scored in the sixth round of penalty kicks to clinch the trophy after 120 scoreless minutes. It was the first MLS Cup final to fail to produce a goal in regulation, setting the stage for a dramatic tiebreaker.While Torontos Michael Bradley and Alvaro Fernandez for Seattle had both seen their shots saved, the game went to sudden-death spot kicks. Torontos Justin Morrow could only clatter his shot off the crossbar, setting the stage for Torres to win it with a high shot down the middle of the goal.You need a little bit of luck, Frei said. Lets face it, PKs are not the prettiest thing to decide a game, and actually Roman missed a penalty in training yesterday. Im glad he missed yesterday and not today.Seattle became the first team in MLS Cup final history to fail to produce a shot on target throughout the game. Additionally, the Sounders three shots overall were the fewest in an MLS title game, the first to feature two expansion franchises. Toronto was the first Canadian MLS Cup finalist.That meant little to Bradley, who was understandably dejected after seeing his team become just the second to lose at home since MLS switched from having the final at a neutral location to the home stadium of the finalist with the most regular-season points in 2012. The Portland Timbers became the first when they won the championship in Columbus against the Crew last year.Every guy gave everything they had, every guy walked off the field having pored their hearts into the game and we didnt get rewarded tonight, Bradley said. Thats sports, thats life.With the game on the line, Toronto coach Greg Vanney removed former MLS most valuable player Sebastian Giovinco in the 103rd minute in favor of Tosaint Ricketts. While Vanney said that an exxhausted Giovinco couldnt move, after the game, the gutsy call almost paid off.ddddddddddddollowing Ricketts cross five minutes after coming on, it looked as if Jozy Altidore was going to give Toronto the lead in the 108th minute with a looping header, but an athletic save from Frei kept it scoreless. Leaping to his left, he scooped the ball off the line with his left hand, allowing his defense to clear the ball to safety.Obviously Frei makes a couple big saves that keep them in it, Vanney said. But congratulations to them.For Seattle coach Brian Schmetzer, who took over from Sigi Schmid on July 26 with Seattle in ninth place in the Western Conference, the turnaround was complete. Posting an 8-2-4 record since then, Seattle became the first team in MLS history to make the playoffs after having 20 or fewer points through the seasons first 20 matches.Some people say defense wins championships, he said. You couple Romans performance with Stefan Frei, who came up massive with that one save and then in the penalty-kick shootout made the save that he needed to make.ONE COLD NIGHTThe temperature at kickoff was 28 degrees, making it the second-coldest MLS Cup on record. That honor goes to the 2013 edition at Sporting Park in Kansas City, where the game kicked off at 22 degrees.ONE HOT TICKETWhile the remaining tickets for Saturdays final sold out in three minutes after going on sale to the general public last Monday, there were still 90 or so tickets available on StubHub 10 minutes prior to kickoff. Prices ranged from $147 up to $2,500 for a ticket that retailed between $55 and $555 at face value.THE POWER OF CHANGESchmetzer became the first coach in MLS history to take charge of a team midway through the season and lead it to a championship. Schmid (Los Angeles Galaxy) and Steve Nicol (New England Revolution) took their teams to the title match, but both came up short.THE PRICE IS RIGHTI hope we get to do this every year; its pretty fun. If we dont win the championship every year I hope everyone has to go through us to get to the championship every year and when they get here theyre bloody and bruised and can barely play. -- Seattle Sounders part-owner, and host of the Price is Right, Drew Carey, in the locker room after the game.
