PARIS - Marseille strengthened its attacking options by finalizing the loan of Monaco winger Lucas Ocampos on the final day of Europes winter transfer window, which closed on Monday without any major signing in France. Evan Longoria Jersey .Even big-spending Paris Saint-Germain, whose ambitions are slowed by Financial Fair Play sanctions, did not invest a single euro on new players after selling midfielder Clement Chantome to Bordeaux for a reported fee of 750,000 euros ($851,000).Marseille, which is locked in a three-way battle for the French title with Lyon and PSG, said it has an option to buy Ocampos but did not reveal the financial terms of the deal.French league leader Lyon, which has been relying on its reservoir of homegrown players to climb to the top of the standings this season, made a long-term investment with the purchase of up-and-coming Metz forward Maxwel Cornet. The 18-year-old striker signed a four-and-a-half year deal worth 200,000 euros ($230,000), plus a percentage of any future transfer fees.After investing more than 400 million euros ($474 million) in its future stadium, Lyons main task was to retain striker Alexandre Lacazette, the leagues top scorer with 21 goals. The France forwards strong performances have prompted interest from big European clubs such as Manchester City and Arsenal, but Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas convinced him to stay at least until the end of the current term.Selling our best players, who could help us play the Champions League in this stadium, would be the negation of our strategy, Aulas said.With French clubs struggling to attract the biggest names and putting the brakes on their spendings, the arrival of Hatem Ben Arfa at Nice grabbed the spotlight. But the former France midfielders stay in France might already be over because of FIFAs transfer rules preventing him from playing.Ben Arfa joined the southern club last month, but FIFA and French football authorities refused to give him clearance to play before the next season because a player cannot appear for more than two clubs in the same campaign. The 27-year-old Ben Arfa played for Newcastle in an under-21 match in August last year before moving to Hull on loan.After a French court confirmed the French leagues decision Monday, Ben Arfas lawyer Jean-Jacques Bertrand told TV channel Infosport Plus that his client would not stay on the Riviera and was even thinking about ending his career.He is obviously very affected, he fought during a month and everything is coming to an end today, Bertrand said.Monaco, who let its star players Radamel Falcao and James Rodriguez leave during the 2014 summer window in a dramatic change of development strategy, signed 20-year-old Bernardo Silva, who had spent the past six months on loan at the club.Facing a UEFA probe for overspending on player transfers and wages as part of the Financial Fair Play, Monqco also secured the arrival on loan of Brazilian striker Matheus Carvalho from Atletico Barra da Tijuc and offloaded defender Borja Lopez on loan to Deportivo La Coruna. Pablo Sandoval Jersey . With the Pirates in the thick of the race in the NL Central, the timing couldnt be better. Liriano struck out a season-high 11 in seven innings to win consecutive starts for the first time this season and Pittsburgh beat the San Francisco Giants 3-1 on Tuesday night. Matt Williams Jersey . Bostons bats exploded in Mondays opener, as David Ortiz belted a pair of two-run homers, Stephen Drew homered and drove in four runs and the Red Sox pummeled the Blue Jays, 14-1. http://www.sfgiantsrookiestore.com/Giants-Madison-Bumgarner-Kids-Jersey/ . Canada will host the second stop on the circuit, the 2014 Skate Canada International in Kelowna, British Columbia from October 31 - November 2, 2014 at Prospera Place. LONDON -- Cristiano Ronaldo upstaged Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the battle of the superstar forwards to give Portugal the edge over Sweden in the World Cup playoffs, while Frances chances of qualifying took a big hit by losing 2-0 in Ukraine. Ronaldo transferred his prolific scoring form for Real Madrid to the international stage, diving to head home an 82nd-minute winner and give Portugal a 1-0 cushion to take to Stockholm for Tuesdays second leg. France faces missing a major tournament for the first time since 1994 after Roman Zozulya and Andriy Yarmolenko scored second-half goals for Ukraine in a feisty match that saw both teams finish with 10 men. Kostas Mitroglous double helped Greece claim a 3-1 win over Romania and tiny Iceland overcame a sending-off early in the second half to hold on for a 0-0 draw with Croatia, keeping alive its hopes of becoming the least populous nation to reach a World Cup. All four return matches take place on Tuesday, when the 13 qualifiers from Europe will be finalized. Italy drew 1-1 with Germany and an experimental England side slumped to a 2-0 home loss to Chile in headline friendly matches as the countdown to next years World Cup begins in earnest. One of the worlds top forwards will be absent in Brazil next summer -- and it looks more likely to be Ibrahimovic, not Ronaldo. The heavily billed showdown between two of the biggest stars -- and egos -- in football looked like falling flat in Lisbon, only for Ronaldo to take centre stage like he so often does for Madrid. He dived to glance in a left-wing cross for his 44th goal in 108 international appearances, and almost added another when he headed against the crossbar late on. Ibrahimovic was largely anonymous in Lisbon and, at the age of 32, could be set to miss out on what would likely be his final World Cup campaign. Another star of the world game, Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery, may alsso be absent in Brazil after France tumbled to defeat in Kyiv on a night that proved to be one to forget for Laurent Koscielny. Mark Melancon Jersey. . The Arsenal defender conceded the penalty that Yarmolenko converted for 2-0 in the 83rd minute, and was then sent off in stoppage time. Zozulya opened the scoring in the 61st for Ukraine, who had Oleksandr Kucher dismissed soon after Koscielny had been shown the red card. Iceland, with a population of around 320,000, is seeking a place in a major tournament for the first time but the biggest football match in the Nordic countrys history turned sour when Olafur Skulason was sent off for a professional foul in the 51st. However, goalkeeper Hannes Halldorsson and his packed defence stood firm to repel wave after wave of Croatia attacks in the second half. The 10,000 Iceland fans in the Laugardalsvollur national stadium greeted the final whistle as if their team had won. Romania appears likely to miss out on World Cup qualification for the fourth straight campaign after conceding twice in the opening 20 minutes before Mitroglou scored Greeces third in the 66th to give the 2004 European champions a strong advantage to take to Bucharest. Bogdan Stancu had equalized in the 19th for Romania, which had substitute Costin Lazar sent off for a second yellow card in stoppage time. Italy maintained its proud record of not having lost to Germany since 1995 -- but needed a 28th-minute equalizer by Ignazio Abate to preserve that run. Germany took the lead in the eighth minute through Mats Hummels and twice hit the goal frame in Milan. In another match between two World Cup qualifiers, Chile ended Englands 10-game unbeaten run thanks to Alexis Sanchezs double at Wembley Stadium. The Barcelona forward scored in the seventh minute and again in second-half injury time to deliver a reality check for England, which gave three players debuts.
