TORONTO -- After 13 months of preparation and practicing, the World Cup of Hockey championship will be decided in a three-game series between Team Canada and Team Europe beginning Tuesday night at Air Canada Centre (8 p. Wholesale Braves Jerseys .m. ET, ESPN).It might not seem like a perfect championship matchup between the powerhouse Canadians and the underdogs of Europe, but this has the potential to be a fun finals. On paper, the Canadians are stronger, deeper, more talented and playing great hockey in this best-on-best tournament.The Europeans, representing eight countries, have formed a cohesive unit and surprised the entire hockey world that it was able to win and reach the finals, especially with a victory over Team Sweden in the semifinals. The one thing Team Europe is banking on is its pride, knowing this team will never exist again. Talk to any of the players on that team, and to a man, they all believe they can beat Canada.However, this could be the greatest collection of hockey talent Canada has ever had on one roster. If this was a one-game, winner-take-all situation, Europe could pull out a stunner, but no way it does that in a three-game set. Europe goaltender Jaroslav Halak will need to be the best player on the ice to keep his team in this series.Line match: From top to bottom, theres no denying Canadas potent lineup. Its top line of Brad Marchand, Sidney Crosby and Patrice Bergeron has been outstanding. Crosby has three goals and four assists for seven points in four games, while Marchand has three goals and two assists for five points, and Bergeron has two goals and two assists for four points. The chemistry that line has created is off the charts. Even if Europe tries to focus on that line to shut it down (likely using Zdeno Chara on Crosby), then Europe still needs to worry about Canadas other three lines, which are just as dangerous offensively. Europe received an important offensive surge by Tomas Tatar, who had two goals against Sweden in the semifinals. Babe Ruth Jersey .

LISBON, Portugal -- Napoli won 2-1 at Benfica but both teams qualified for the knockout stage of the Champions League on Tuesday after Besiktas fell to a surprise 6-0 thrashing at Dynamo Kiev.Dries Mertens, who scored two goals in a 4-2 win against Benfica in Italy, changed the Group B match after coming on as a substitute. The Belgium international set up the opener for Jose Callejon on the hour mark before securing the win in the 79th as Napoli topped its Champions League group for the first time.We had already been burned once by looking at the result of the other match, said Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri, whose team had squandered earlier chances to qualify for the last 16. So, it really hardly mattered to us what was happening in Kiev. We wanted first place to make Napoli history.But I think that there is really very little advantage to finishing first. It was more for our own satisfaction, because we are convinced that we are the team that has played the best in this group.It was meant to be a battle to advance at Estadio da Luz but it turned out to be a shootout for top spot as Besiktas collapsed in Ukraine.Both Benfica and Napoli had missed several earlier opportunities to advance, with the Italian side nearly becoming the first team in Champions League history to advance from the group stage aafter only three matches -- before losing to Besiktas and drawing its next two games. Jose Ramirez Jersey. .Both teams had eight points coming into the match, one more than Besiktas, and Napoli knew a draw would be enough, having already defeated Benfica.It was an end-to-end start to the match but there were few clear chances and the tempo started to fall as the news filtered through that Besiktas was losing.Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina had been the busier of the two shot-stoppers in the first half but Napoli appeared more determined after the break. Callejon should have broken the deadlock four minutes into the second half but fired wide from a great position.Mertens was brought on in the 57th and had an immediate impact, with a lovely through ball to Callejon who dinked it over the onrushing Ederson.Mertens got on the scoresheet himself in the 79th, carving out space just inside the area, following a one-two between Callejon and Faouzi Ghoulam, and curling into the bottom left corner.Napoli gifted Benfica a consolation goal three minutes from time when Raul Albiol was caught napping. He should have easily cleared a long ball but Raul Jimenez seized the moment and fired past Reina.
