Melbourne Victory coach Kevin Muscat says hes never encountered an A-League competitor like Besart Berisha but the Albanian revealed he needed to give himself a half-time pep talk to secure the winner in Saturdays Melbourne derby.Berisha netted a 78th minute goal to win the A-League classic for Victory over Melbourne City in a 2-1 comeback triumph.Tim Cahill had put City ahead before Marco Rojas tied up the match heading into halftime.As hes done so many times before, Berisha stepped up on the big stage to find a winner.The goal was his eighth in Melbourne derbies - a record - and drew the 31-year-old level with Archie Thompson as the A-Leagues all-time leading scorer.But for 45 minutes it didnt look like coming after an uncharactistically wasteful opening half.Berisha made a mess of two one-on-one chances and took an air swing at an extravagant volley in the first stanza.He said doubts crept into his head during the break.I had a couple of chances in the beginning and I thought, Oh my god, Im not going to score any more. What is going on?, he said.I was very emotional coming into this game. We had lost the last two (derbies).(At halftime) I was very angry. I went inside and smashed everything around.I motivated myself. I tell myself, one more chance youre going to get and youve gotta be there.In the end Im very happy that I scored the winner.Late into the changerooms, Muscat didnt see Berishas destruction but he would now be asking some questions.If he did smash anything hell be replacing it himself, I can guarantee you that, he said.Muscat said he did see a focussed player.I asked him to maintain his composure and keep getting in goalscoring positions. He said Ill score in the second half, Muscat said.The self belief that hes got is unmatched in anything Ive seen in this country.There was a hint of offside about the goal but no one in the City camp was complaining - a sign perhaps that the result was a deserved one.The result was Victorys first derby success in five matches dating to October 2015.Berisha said he was delighted to help end Victorys derby drought.Im so grateful that I scored in the end to bring the three points home for the boys, he said.This means a lot to our supporters to our club. I dedicate this game to the supporters. They are amazing. Cheap Vans Shoes Wholesale .

Marie, Ont., team took control of the game early.SASKATOON - After being swept in the first round of the Western Hockey League playoffs, many questioned whether the host Saskatoon Blades even belonged at the MasterCard Memorial Cup. They emphatically put those doubts rest with a gritty win over the Canadian Hockey Leagues top team. Matej Stransky scored twice and Andrey Makarov made 29 saves as Saskatoon picked up its first victory in more than two months by beating the star-studded Halifax Mooseheads 5-2 on Sunday night. "Theres a lot of doubt in this city, or there was, going into tonight and they had every reason to," Blades centre Lukas Sutter said. "We had to do something to spark some belief and excitement." The Blades did just that against a team whose roster includes top NHL prospects Nathan MacKinnon and Jonathan Drouin. Collin Valcourt, Darren Dietz and Josh Nicholls, into an empty net, had the other goals for Saskatoon (1-1), which dropped a hard-fought 3-2 decision to the London Knights in Fridays tournament opener, but held on against the CHLs No. 1 ranked team. "Weve never had doubt in that room and I think we needed a game like this to show the fans and the whole city that they can get behind us and have something to feel confident about," said Nicholls, who also had an assist. "I think (the Credit Union Centre) was the loudest its been in my five years here." Stephen MacAulay and MacKinnon replied in the third period for Halifax (1-1), which lost just six games during the regular season and once in the playoffs while cruising to the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League title. Zachary Fucale made 26 stops in defeat. With the Mooseheads down 1-0 and pressing for the tie late in the second period, Stransky collected a loose puck after coming out of the penalty box. The Dallas Stars prospect moved in alone on Fucale and roofed a shot under the crossbar with 1:15 left to help send Saskatoon, which hadnt played in 51 days prior to the game against London, to its first win since a 3-2 shootout decision over the Edmonton Oil Kings on March 12. "Its been a while since weve had that win. Its been over 60 days since weve won a hockey game," said Blades defenceman Duncan Siemens, whose team will meet the Portland Winterhawks in Wednesdays round-robin finale of the tournament to decide the CHL champion. "Its been a long time and it feels great to get that one, but were not satisfied." Halifax, which was playing its second game in as many nights after Saturdays 7-4 victory over Portland, was thwarted time and again by Makarov. A Russian netminder who is property of the Buffalo Sabres, Makarov stopped MacKinnon early in the second off the rush with Saskatoon up 1-0 and made a big save on Halifaxs Stefan Fournier eight minutes into the period. While Makarov was brilliiant, he got a lot of help from his teammates, who blocked shots with reckless abandon, especially on the power play before Stranskys second goal.dddddddddddd "I thought they outworked us for the majority of the game," said MacKinnon, whose team lost for just the eighth time in regulation all season. "I thought we had a good last 10-12 minutes to the night but thats not enough and weve got to regroup. "We dont like the feeling (of losing) but well handle it like men and pros and move on." Valcourt made it 3-0 just 1:43 into the third, banging a puck home off a scramble in front of Fucale before Dietz scored another one from in tight on the power play just 57 seconds later. "They played with more energy than us and desperation," Mooseheads coach Dominique Ducharme said. "They felt their back maybe a little bit more to the wall and they reacted. Youve got to give them credit. They battled hard. "You look at the goals that were scored. Three of them are battles in front of the net for loose pucks or rebounds." MacAulay got Halifax on the board by ripping a shot past Makarov at 6:48 of the third before MacKinnon added his fourth of the tournament at 8:19. The Mooseheads pressed for more, but couldnt find another way past Makarov before Nicholls iced it with two seconds to go. The Blades led 1-0 after an exciting first period that featured five combined power plays, good chances at both ends and a couple of hard hits. Saskatoon opened the scoring at 12:11 when Stransky jammed a loose puck past Fucale after the Mooseheads goalie failed to control a rebound in his crease. Nicholls, who is in the final days of his junior career, summed up the emotion in the Blades locker-room after a victory that was a long time coming. "Today is one of the best feelings I think all of us have had in playing the game of hockey," Nicholls said. "I think we were just all together as a group. Each guy was on the same page and we were all pushing each other on that bench to gain some energy. At no point did we fatigue at all. We kept pushing each other and charging each others batteries."
