Domestic Results and New College v.s. Ringling. Part I.

In Scotland, Rangers went to town on Hamilton, winning 4-0 thanks to two goals from Vladimir Weiss on either side of Steven Wittaker's penalty in the 28th to make it 3-0 at half time. Maurice Edu then scored in the 82nd minute to make it 4-0 before the final whistle blew. Motherwell and Inverness played out a goalless draw while Kilmarnock and St. Johnstone tied 1-1 with goals from Conor Sammon and Cleveland Taylor respectively. Concluding the matches in Scotland, Aberdeen finished St. Mirren with a 2-0 scoreline thanks to Scott Vernon's two second half goals. South in England, Chelsea slotted two past Blackburn without reply to win their match 2-0. Branislav Ivanovic and Nicolas Anelka were the two scorers for the Blues. Meanwhile, in Manchester, City were able to outscore Wolves 4-3 thanks to two goals from Carlos Tevez, and strikes from Kolo and Yaya Toure. Wolverhampton actually opened the scoring, through Nenad Milijas in the 12th, before City struck their four goals which made it 4-1. Kevin Doyle converted a penalty in the 68th minute to break City's strike record with Ronald Zubar scoring in the 86th minute to end the game 4-3. Stoke struck two past Bolton's Jussi Jaaskelainen in their match, thanks to Danny Higginbotham in the 37th and a penalty in the 63rd by Matthew Etherington. West Brom were also able to edge out their competition, beating Blackpool 3-2. Blackpool did open the scoring through David Vaughan before Peter Odemwingie and James Morrison scored their two goals. Gary Taylor-Fletcher leveled things in the 80th before Peter Odemwingie struck his second. Arsenal trounced West Ham in their game, winning 3-0 after Robin van Persie struck twice including from the penalty spot and Theo Walcott added one of his own. Wigan and Fulham finished level 1-1 thanks to strikes by Hugo Rodallega and Andrew Johnson. Crossing the Channel into Germany, Wolfsburg were actually able to tie with a struggling Bayern despite Thomas Muller converting the game's first goal in the 7th minute. Sascha Riether equalised on the totally opposite point of the game, scoring in the 86th minute. Stuttgart on the other hand was able to edge out the competition from their visitors, Mainz, winning 1-0 thanks to a Martin Harnik goal in the 79th minute. St. Pauli and Freiburg tied 2-2 in their match with Papiss Demba Cisse scoring both of the Freiburg goals while Marius Ebbers and Gerald Asamoah scored for St. Pauli. Schalke just barely lost to Hamburg at home, due only to a Ruud van Nistelrooy strike just into the second half which was not expanded upon or replied to. Bremen got the three points against Hoffenheim, winning 2-1 thanks to two veterans: Claudio Pizarro scored in the 36th minute while Torsten Frings scored in the second minute of stoppage time in the second half for the win. Boris Vucevic had equalised in the 87th minute. Nurnberg v.s. Monchengladbach turned out positively for the visitors as they edged out the home side 1-0. Roman Neustadter made the difference, scoring in the 8th minute. I'll post Part II later, enjoy.
