LONDON -- As the goals have dried up for Jamie Vardy at Leicester, another former non-league striker has embarked on a hot scoring streak for a Premier League club.Charlie Austin made it seven goals in six games in all competitions for Southampton with a double in Sundays 3-1 victory over Burnley that took the south-coast club up to eighth in the standings.In a career that began outside Englands four professional leagues, Burnley provided the 27-year-old Austin with one of his stepping stones to the worlds richest soccer competition.Austin was a bricklayer working a full day on a building site before playing on a part-time basis for Poole Town in the ninth tier until 2009. It took third-tier club Swindon to pluck Austin from obscurity, for Burnley to take him up another league and then QPR to give him a shot at the Premier League.Still, doubts persisted around Austins fitness. Southampton was able to snap him up for 4 million pounds (then $6 million) in January. What a bargain that now seems.The case looks increasingly compelling for Austin to return to the England squad for the first time since 2015 when he failed to make his international debut. Particularly if England interim manager Gareth Southgate is comparing Austins form with Vardys for Leicester when it comes to selecting players to face Scotland and Spain next month.After a 24-goal haul last season, Vardy has only scored twice this campaign and his goal drought reached seven matches on Saturday as Leicesters feeble title defense continued with a loss at Chelsea.Like Southampton on Sunday, Leicester also put three past Burnley a month ago but Austin -- unlike Vardy -- seized on the opportunity to punish the struggling Premier League newcomers defense.Austins first goal, in the 52nd minute, was down to persistence rather than finesse. Virgil van Dijk met Dusan Tadics corner with a header across the face of goal to Austin. The first shot was blocked on the line by Sam Vokes, but Austin followed up by poking the ball into the net.After Nathan Redmonds low volley from the edge of the area doubled Southamptons lead, Austin was on target from the penalty spot in the 66th minute following Johann Berg Gudmundssons push on Sam McQueen.The one blot on the afternoon for the Saints was Burnley becoming the first team to score against them in 612 minutes when Vokes scored a late penalty.But Austin and his teammates will travel to Italy full of confidence for one of the biggest games in the clubs history -- a Europa League game against Inter Milan on Thursday.This team will always create chances, its a dream for any striker, Austin said. I am in the right place at the right time.But he is not guaranteed a place in the starting lineup in Milan.Its important he doesnt play all the games from the start, manager Claude Puel said. Its important you dont lose Charlie, its important hes available every time, to keep a good physical level for every player.Charlie is not an endurance player. Its important to keep him with his qualities and we can change the team every game. Its not possible, for me, for a player to start all the games every three days.Burnley is only a point above the relegation zone, with seven points from its first eight games back in the Premier League.---MIDDLESBROUGH 0, WATFORD 1The days first Premier League game lacked the entertainment provided later by Southampton, with the only memorable moment coming with Jose Holebass eye-catching goal.The 32-year-old Greek midfielder sent a shot from the edge of the penalty area soaring into the top of the net in the 54th minute at the Riverside stadium in northeast England.Watford climbed to 10th place as Middlesbrough remained winless at home this season since returning to the Premier League and only out of the relegation zone on goal difference.Ryan Kalil Womens Jersey . - Chris Tierney snapped a tie with a power-play goal late in the third period as the London Knights rallied from a 3-0 deficit to beat the Erie Otters 5-3 in Ontario Hockey League action on Wednesday.

Please? she added.Monk rarely complied, setting a Kentucky freshman record with 47 points and hitting the go-ahead 3-pointer with 16.7 seconds left to lead the sixth-ranked Wildcats past No. 7 North Carolina 103-100 on Saturday.If you watched that game, if you never liked basketball, youre going to start liking basketball, Kentucky coach John Calipari said. Like, wow.North Carolinas Justin Jackson nearly outshined Monk with 34 points, and his basket with 45 seconds left put the Tar Heels (10-2) ahead after trailing much of the second half.Monk responded with a right-wing 3 in transition to put Kentucky up 101-100 -- going against Caliparis wishes.Coach told me to drive, but I was hot and I shot it, Monk said.Good choice.After Isaiah Hicks only hit the backboard at the other end, Kentuckys DeAaron Fox hit two free throws with 1.9 seconds left.North Carolina got the ball in the front court with less than a second left. But Kenny Williams desperation 3 at the buzzer got lodged between the rim and backboard.Heck of a college basketball game if you dont care who won, North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. But I do care who wins. . Malik was off the charts.Monk hit 18 of 28 shots, including 8 of 12 3-point attempts, scoring in various ways in an electric performance that was the most points in Division I this season. Only Dukes Dick Groat (48 points) in 1952 has scored more against the Tar Heels.And Kentucky needed Monks huge effort to offset Jacksons four 3s and 10 free throws in a game played at a furious pace.Those are games you live for, Fox said.Fox added 24 points for Kentucky (10-1), which shot 54 percent from the field. North Carolina shot 53 percent. They combined for 37 assists and just 19 turnovers.The Tar Heels fell to 52-2 when they score 100 points under Williams and 180-4 when they shoot better than 50 percent.Joel Berry II returned from injury to score 23 points for the Tar Heels, but was slowed by foul trouble in the second half.The enthhusiastic crowd at the new T-Mobile Arena just off the Las Vegas Strip made it feel like an Elite Eight game.ddddddddddddThe quality of play in the CBS Sports Classic matchup gave it more of a Final Four feel.With two of the highest-scoring and fastest teams squaring off, Calipari joked earlier in the week he and Williams would be constantly yelling, Get back! on defense.In the 38th meeting between the schools, Monk dominated early and Kentucky raced to a 12-point lead. Jackson and Berry, who returned from a two-game absence due to a sprained left ankle, kept scoring off the dribble as North Carolina closed to 56-51 at halftime.There was hardly time to catch a breath. Kentucky took a 10-point lead in the second half. The Tar Heels rallied to tie it on Tony Bradleys two free throws with 2:51 left and went ahead on Jacksons 3 with 1:33 remaining.BIG PICTUREKentucky: Monk couldnt have put on a better display in a bigger setting, solidifying his star status and putting fear into Southeastern Conference opponents.North Carolina: The Tar Heels never slowed the pace and was happy playing up-tempo for 40 minutes. But foul trouble and the inability to contain Monk and others off the dribble cost them a chance at a big pre-conference victory.RECORD GREATJamal Murray (last season) and Terrence Jones (2011) held the previous Kentucky record for points in a game by a freshman with 35.TECHNICALLY UPSETLivid with the third foul called on Hicks while the forward was sprawled on the floor midway through the first half, Williams took off his jacket and fired it into the bench, earning a technical foul from referee Roger Ayers.He gets some of the worst breaks of any player Ive ever seen, Williams said of Hicks.UP NEXTIt gets no easier for Kentucky, which travels to rival No. 11 Louisville on Wednesday.North Carolina hosts Northern Iowa on Wednesday and Monmouth on Dec. 28 before its ACC opener Dec. 31 at Georgia Tech.---More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.Cheap JerseysChina NFL JerseysWholesale Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
