PITTSBURGH -- Bernhard Langer made a short birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff with Jeff Sluman to win the Senior Players Championship on Sunday. Langer appeared to be in trouble when his second shot on the par-5 18th ended up in the rough short of the green. He hit a brilliant pitch to 5 feet and made the putt after Slumans birdie attempt rolled just wide. The victory was the 56-year-old Langers third of the year and his third major title on the Champions Tour. The two-time Masters champion shot an even-par 70 to finish at 15-under 265 at Fox Chapel. Sluman had a bogey-free 65 to match Langer, but narrowly missed a birdie putt on the first playoff hole that would have won it. Russ Cochran, who trailed by seven shots early in the final round, had a 67 to finish third at 14 under. Defending champion Kenny Perry tied Langer for the lead heading into the back nine, but faded badly over the closing holes. Perrys 69 left him two shots out of the playoff. Langer nearly missed out on the playoff himself. He fought a balky putter much of the day only to hole a 35-foot birdie putt on the 17th that lifted him into a tie with Sluman. The normally reserved German pumped his fist in disbelief after the ball dropped into the cup. He parred 18 to match Sluman at 15 under and escaped one more time when Slumans birdie attempt on the first playoff hole burned the right edge. Sluman, the 1988 PGA champion, covered his hands in disbelief after the putt stayed out. Langer didnt let the reprieve go to waste, birdieing the 18th on his third try to earn his first major title on the 50-and-over circuit since the 2010 Senior British Open. It didnt come easy for a player who started the day with a comfortable three-shot advantage over Perry. The steady play that kept Langer atop the leaderboard for the better part of 54 holes abandoned him early in the round, opening the door for the rest of the field. Langer missed a short par putt at the par-4 fourth, and he turned the 295-yard par-4 seventh into an adventure when his pitch sailed over the green and his 5-foot comebacker for par popped off the back edge of the cup. Perry, who promised to go into "attack mode" to chase down his good friend, had little trouble tracking Langer down. He pulled even with a birdie at the seventh and did it again at the ninth, when he bounced back from a bogey at the eighth by holing out from a greenside bunker for birdie. A back-nine duel, however, never materialized. Both players started spraying shots -- including an ugly double bogey for Langer at the par-4 12th -- while Sluman quietly went about his business in the group ahead. Sluman slowly reeled in the front-runners, taking the lead with a birdie on the par-4 14th and adding another at the par-4 16th while Perry and Langer faltered behind him. The streaky Perry, trying to join Arnold Palmer as the only player to win consecutive Senior Players titles, cooled as the pressure mounted. He shot 3-over 38 on the back, failing to make a single birdie down the stretch as the crisp iron game that vaulted him into contention vanished. Cheapest Air Max 2014 .

Dani Abalos goal in the opening seconds of injury time cancelled out Mario Balotellis 82nd-minute strike -- his first for Liverpool -- and looked like earning a draw for Ludogorets, a Bulgarian minnow making its debut in the competitions group stage. But Canadian international goalkeeper Milan Borjan brought down substitute Fabio Borini moments later and Gerrard slotted home the spot kick to complete a successful return to Europes elite competition for Liverpool after five years out. It was Liverpools long-awaited return to what the five-time European champions regard as their habitat and the club played it up, with a sea of flags and scarves decorating all corners of Anfield before kickoff and a mosaic of five European Cups held up by Kop. They have missed these big European nights in these parts and there was as much relief as joy when Gerrard -- the only survivor from Liverpools last Champions League match in December 2009 -- sent Borjan the wrong way from the spot. But this arguably was an even bigger night for Ludogorets, a team that didnt even exist at the turn of the century and only turned professional in 2010. The Bulgarian champions did nnot look overawed on the biggest night of their lives, famously made possible by defender Cosmin Motis penalty saves in a shootout win against Steaua Bucharest in the qualifying playoff when filling in as goalkeeper.dddddddddddd And they could easily have drawn or even won the game, with Roman Bezjak rolling a shot against the foot of the post when clean through with the score at 0-0. Balotelli had been a peripheral figure until he made a goal out of nothing, controlling Alberto Morenos cross from the left, beating his marker with a touch and poking a fine finish into the corner for his first goal since joining from AC Milan last month. Liverpool had been limited to half-chances in a scrappy before that, with Borjan -- signed on Friday to solve a goalkeeping crisis -- not having a shot to save in the first half. Liverpools build-up play was inaccurate and predictable, but Jordan Henderson delivered some incisiveness in the 53rd minute when he lofted a pass toward Javier Manquillo. Virgil Misidjan failed to clear and Manquillo, with only Borjan to beat, scooped his shot over the bar. Ludogorets remained dangerous on the counterattack and when Gerrard lost concentration, Bezjak ran onto a quickly taken throw-in, sprinted clear and poked a shot over in the 66th. The striker then went even closer by hitting the post before a mad finish of three goals in a 10-minute span.
