RIO DE JANEIRO -- Liz Cambage cried. Penny Taylor, whose long career is over when the WNBA season ends, stood with her hands on her head staring into space in stunned disbelief.The Serbia womens basketball team raced to midcourt, hugging and jumping before circling together and dancing.The Serbs, playing in the Olympic tournament for the first time, shocked Australia by eliminating the three-time silver medalists 73-71 Tuesday in the first major upset.Its history made for Serbia. Its such an honor, said Serbia forward Danielle Page, who was choking up with tears. Its an honor to be part of this team.Ana Dabovic hit a free throw with 10.2 seconds left to give Serbia a two-point lead and the Aussies had one last chance to force overtime or win it. But Australia guard Leilani Mitchells heave from near the three-point line was short, and Marianna Tolos desperation put-back didnt hit the rim -- sending the jubilant Serbs racing to midcourt to celebrate.Australia coach Brendan Joyce said the Aussies, whose streak of medaling in every Olympics since 1996 came to an abrupt end, didnt take the Euro champs for granted.Heartbreaker to go down by 2, Joyce said. Not get a shot off with 10 seconds left. Didnt have the correct spacing. One of the players lost her focus and wasnt supposed to be a double screen.Taylors final game in an Aussie jersey wasnt memorable. The 35-year-old forward missed all seven of her shots, finishing with two points and nine assists.Representing a country is the ultimate goal, and you want to do it well, Taylor said. Make people proud and definitely could have done more tonight.An emotional Cambage, who has carried the Aussies in Rio and had 29 points and 11 rebounds, didnt talk with the media when she left the court.The Australians struggled with 26 turnovers -- 16 of those steals by the Serbs. The Aussies led by nine in the third quarter but couldnt hold onto the lead with Serbia playing so aggressively on defense.We threw the ball away a lot, Taylor said. The turnovers killed us. Not getting good shots or getting any shot when we threw the ball away. Were disappointed, but credit to a team that played really well tonight.Serbia will play Spain, a 64-62 winner over Turkey, on Thursday for a spot in the gold medal game.Dabovic finished with 24 points for Serbia and three steals herself. She scored the final three points for Serbia.She was unstoppable, said Page, who played at Nebraska in college. Defensively, shes such a smart defender to win ball games. Saw that shes such an important piece of our team without her we werent winning that ball game.---Online:AP Summer Games website: http://summergames.ap.org/Matt Hall Jersey .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona.

Charlie Gehringer Jersey . Patrice Bergeron and Daniel Paille scored 20 seconds apart a few minutes after Stamkos was taken off the ice on a stretcher with a broken right leg, and the Bruins beat the Lightning 3-0 on Monday afternoon.FRANKFURT, Germany -- Eleven rounds into the season, four-time defending champion Bayern Munich looks unusually vulnerable after losing the Bundesliga lead to newcomer Leipzig.Carlo Ancelottis team fell to its first defeat of the season by going down 1-0 at Borussia Dortmund on Saturday and dropped three points behind undefeated Leipzig, the promoted team that has won six straight.Bayern has won only two of its last six matches and the German powerhouse seems to have lost some of its mental sharpness and lethal finishing. Worse still for Bayern, opponents are no longer waving the white flag as they run onto the pitch.It is true, we are not quite so dominant, so superior, as in the past few years, defender Mats Hummels said.Seeking its fifth consecutive title -- after a record four straight -- Bayern began its first season under Ancelotti with a 6-0 thumping of Werder Bremen and seemed to have made a smooth transition from Pep Guardiolas style based on possession and tactical discipline.Everything looked fine in the first few matches. But then came draws with Eintracht Frankfurt, Cologne and Hoffenheim, and finally the loss in Dortmund, the first in the German league since March. Bayern is not leading the Bundesliga for the first time since September 2015.Of course you cant be satisfied if youre not the leader anymore and youve lost points, captain Philipp Lahm said, before adding sarcastically, but its nice for the league, thats what you all were waiting for, no?Hummels, who played eight years in Dortmund before moving to Bayern this season, said visiting Dortmund is the toughest awayy game in Europe, but did not want to overrate the loss.ddddddddddddIts not good, but its also not a catastrophe, not the end of the world, he said. You should not judge a game only by the result,Its true that Bayern controlled many stages of the match, but could not break down Dortmunds dogged defense, which earned Thomas Tuchels team its first home win over Bayern since April 2012.At the moment, we are missing a little that desire to make the goal, Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said. We could have won today against a Dortmund side that wasnt very strong.We were missing that last pass, the precision, Lahm added.The players seem to enjoy the tactical freedom under Ancelotti, but they also seem to lack the purpose they had under Guardiola. The Spaniard constantly gave directions and gesticulated from the touchline, while the grim-faced Ancelotti rarely moved during the loss in Dortmund. The Italian is mild-mannered and has said that giving instructions during a match is all but useless since players rarely listen.Bayern also has been hit by injuries and the poor form of forward Thomas Mueller, who still has to score in the league this season.We are playing a little bit differently, we have other priorities and thats OK, Hummels said.Hummels thinks that Leipzig can be a serious contender and that Bayern will not be able to march through the season unchallenged as in recent years.At the end, I think the title will be decided between us and Dortmund, he said.
