Werder completes Marin signing
Soccer Betting Lines
06/25/2009 - Bremen, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Werder Bremen has finally completed the signing of Germany Under-21 international Marko Marin.
The 20-year-old midfielder has signed a four-year contract to officially seal his $10.6 million transfer from Moenchengladbach.
Gladbach were reported to be holding out for a fee in the region of $16 million for their prize asset but decided to sell as Marin's contract only had 12 months left to run.
The two clubs had been at loggerheads since last month but the transfer has now been completed.
Marin has been signed to help fill the midfield playmaker void created by the departure of Brazil star Diego to Juventus since the end of the last Bundesliga season.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
