The Newcastle Jets search for a striker is over with Finnish forward Aleksandr Kokko signing a two-season deal with the club.Kokko, 29, becomes the Jets fourth visa player ahead of the new A-League season.Kokko is a former youth international for Finland who has played for top-flight club Rovaniemen Palloseura (RoPS) since 2012, scoring 54 goals in 102 league appearances.The Jets are yet to announce the signing but RoPS confirmed Kokkos departure on their website, quoting him as saying he was looking forward to experiencing football outside the Finnish Veikkausliiga for the first time in his career.Kokko stands at a towering 189cm and replaces Milos Trifunovic, who fizzled as Newcastles first-choice frontman last season.He will play two more matches in Finland, where the league has been running since April, before linking up with the Jets and coach Scott Miller.It is the third time this year Jets have turned to Scandinavia for players - in January, they signed Dane Morten Nordstrand, while English import Wayne Brown came to Newcastle via Finnish club SJK Seinajoki and shares the same agent as Kokko.Kokko joins Brown, Nordstrand and Mateo Poljak as Newcastles foreign recruits, with the fifth and final spot likely to be used on a Chinese development player.He will become the second Finn to have played in the A-League, following eight-cap international striker Juho Makela, who had an underwhelming stint with Sydney FC in 2011-12.The Jets, who crashed out of the FFA Cup in a 3-1 defeat to Melbourne Victory on Wednesday, will face Central Coast Mariners in a trial game next weekend in Tamworth.Roger Staubach Jersey . -- Claudio Bieler hadnt scored since early September, and not from the run of play since mid-July.

Last weekend at UFC Fight Night 32 my #TeamLynch got the best of #TeamJC by a score of 9-6. Let us know which side youre on for UFC 167 use the hashtag #TeamLynch or #TeamJC on Twitter. Michael Irvin Jersey . Already owning gold from competition in Vancouver in 2010, Loch posted a combined four-run time of 3:27.526. That included a track-record third run of 51.A week which started with him getting lost on his way to the course could end with?Matt Fitzpatrick?winning £1 million and the biggest event of his career to date.In Fitzpatricks defence, it was the driver of a courtesy car at the DP World Tour Championship who struggled to find Jumeirah Golf Estates and turned a short trip into a two-hour journey.But all that will be forgotten if the 22-year-old Ryder Cup player from Sheffield can overturn a one-shot deficit in Sundays final round in Dubai and claim a third European Tour title.The car I got into took a few wrong turnings and the roads are really busy so its not easy to make up time, Fitzpatrick explained after a third round of 66 left him in a tie for second behind Frances Victor Dubuisson.It would be great to get a third win, particularly an event of this stature. Its my last round of the year and I want to finish strongly.I thought last year I played fantastically and this year Ive struggled at times. Its still been a great year, dont get me wrong, but I feel last year was better. A good result tomorrow could change that.Dubuisson carded an eagle and seven birdies in his 64 to finish 13 under par, a shot ahead of Fitzpatrick, Nicolas Colsaerts and Tyrrell Hatton, with?Rafa Cabrera Bello, Lee Westwood and Francesco Molinari another stroke adrift.Both of Dubuissons victories to date have come in the Turkish Airlines Open, but the 26-year-old Frenchman was third in this event in 2013 and second the following year.Its my best score to date on this course, Dubuisson said. Ive played well, made the good putts at the right time. Its just a course I like.You have to carry the ball long. Its target golf and I just like the way it sets up.On a day of low scoring, Colsaerts -- who has not won on the European Tour since 2012 -- fired six birdies and two eagles in his 66, but the best round of the day, and week, came from Cabrera Bello.The world No. 30, who was unbeaten on his Ryderr Cup debut at Hazeltine, surged through the field with a superb 63 containing 10 birdies and a solitary bogey on the ninth.ddddddddddddI knew I needed something special to catch up to the leaders, but I wasnt expecting something this low, said Cabrera Bello, who has recorded nine top 10s this season but has not won since the Dubai Desert Classic in 2012.Its been a very, very good year and Ive pretty much accomplished every single goal and many of my childhood dreams as well. Now I just need to get that win.Westwood had briefly held a two-shot lead when he followed a birdie on the first by chipping in for eagle on the par-five second, but the 43-year-old played the next 12 holes in three over par before three late birdies.It could have been an even better finish for the former world number one after a superb approach to the 18th in near darkness, but he missed from four feet for a closing eagle.Rory McIlroy fared even worse on the last after finding water with his approach, the resulting bogey leaving the defending champion to sign for a second consecutive 68 and eight-shot deficit.I think I turned a 62 into a 68 somehow, the world number two said. I hit a lot of good shots and didnt really hole many putts and it was the story of the day with what happened on 18.[I hit] a great drive, second shot had 207 (yards) to the pin into the wind. Maybe just was a little too aggressive with it and pulled it slightly and just got punished for a bad shot.Open champion Henrik Stenson remains on course to win the Race to Dubai after a 70 left him alongside McIlroy on five under, with nearest rival Danny Willett one over after a 76.Alexander Noren, who can deny fellow Swede Stenson the title by finishing in the top two, is in a tie for 13th after carding a 69 in pursuit of an incredible fifth win in 12 events.
