Ahed of the New York derby on Saturday - live on Sky Sports 5 HD from 8pm - the new short film shows New York City midfielder Poku and New York Red Bulls winger Sam taking a journey to Ghana, the west African nation both players represent on the international stage.Poku has taken MLS by storm since being picked up from North American Soccer League (NASL) side Atlanta Silverbacks in 2015. Kwadwo Poku joined MLS in 2015 The 24-year-old has scored four goals in 29 appearances, mainly coming off the bench, and has become something of a fan favourite in the Bronx for his impressive performances. He has drawn comparisons to Yaya Toure since his arrival due to a similar playing style.After a career in England with Charlton and Leeds, Sam has established himself as one of MLS most dangerous wingers. Born in Leeds but raised by Ghanaian parents, Sam made the move to the Red Bulls in 2012 after his contract at Elland Road was not renewed by then-manager Neil Warnock.Since then, the England-born Ghana international has gone on to win two MLS Supporters Shields in 2013 and 2015, and is now hoping to go one step beyond and win the elusive MLS Cup this season. Lloyd Sam left England to join New York Red Bulls in 2012 Both Poku and Sam made their debuts for the Black Stars in a friendly against Canada in October last year. The match gave the pair a good opportunity to explore even more about the country they play for.The documentary - available here in full - sheds light on both Sam and Pokus backgrounds and how the national team has bought them together, despite the rivalry between two of MLS most renowned clubs.Watch New York City v New York Red Bulls live on Sky Sports 5 HD from 8pm on Saturday.

EDMONTON, Alberta -- Mikko Koivu did it all Sunday night for the Minnesota Wild.The 33-year-old Finn capped a fantastic game by scoring 3:11 into overtime as the Wild edged the Oilers 2-1 and improved to 12-1-0 in their last 13 visits to Edmonton.Mikko Koivu did so many things aside from scoring that winning goal, Minnesota coach Bruce Boudreau said.He was 21-2 on the faceoffs. Ive never seen it that high, that kind of percentage for that kind of number youve taken. Im sure someone has been 26-1 at some point, but not too many people have done that. He was out there every time there was an important faceoff. I thought he controlled the game when he was out there. He was a true leader out there.Charlie Coyle also scored for the Wild (12-8-4), who snapped a three-game skid. Devan Dubnyk made 28 saves and improved to 7-1-0 against the Oilers, his first NHL team.Patrick Maroon had the goal for the Oilers (14-10-3), who had won two straight.For us to scratch and claw and get a point, I dont want to say were satisfied, but it was good to get that, Edmonton coach Todd McLellan said. I didnt think we had the energy level and polish that we needed to beat a good defensive team tonight.Edmonton got on the board less than 3 minutes into the game. Dubnyk stopped a point shot by Mark Fayne, but couldnt recover in time to prevent Maroon from scoring his eighth of the season on the rebound.The Wild tied it with 55 seconds to go in the opening period. Coyle was able to muscle in a rebound off Oilers goalie Jonaas Gustavssons skate for his ninth goal this season.ddddddddddddThe shots were tied 23-all after a scoreless second.

You reach up and grab your mouth when you get hit in the mouth; its a pretty normal thing. Obviously the spotter thought he knew how I was feeling. He pulled me off. A (rotten) time of the game, too.Minnesota nearly scored midway through overtime, but a review confirmed the whistle had blown before the puck was pushed across the line in a scrum. Soon afterward, Koivu converted on a backhand.Game notes It was the first of three meetings this season between the teams. They play again Friday in Minnesota. ...
