Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Oleh Husyev also scored twice but could not avoid Ukraines first loss in seven matches. On Monday, coach Oleh Blokhins team easily defeated Estonia 4-0. Arnautovic scored in the 62nd to make it 2-1 with a low shot after picking up a blocked effort by Andreas Ivanschitz. Zlatko Junuzovic gave Austria an early lead from a free kick in the third minute. He curled the ball over the wall of Ukraine players past keeper Oleksandr Horyainov, who was late to react. Horyainov was substituted at halftime. Both teams created few chances in a first half that lacked fluency as passing was generally too imprecise. Ukraines first chance came in 22nd minute when Andriy Yarmolenko dribbled past two Austria defenders on the right wing and found the unmarked Yevhen Konoplyanka in the area, but the midfielder failed to control the ball with his left foot. Four minutes later, Husyevs low shot from distance went just wide. Blokhin brought veteran striker Andriy Shevchenko for the second half, which helped Ukraine improve its ball possession in attack during a more lively second half. Shevchenkos cross found Konoplyanka, whose low show forced Austria goalkeeper Heinz Lindner into a diving save. Two minutes later, Yarmolenko set up Husyev to score into an empty net for the equalizer. After Arnautovic made it 2-1, Yarmolenko again found Husyev, who netted with a thundering effort from just outside the penalty area in the 65th. Artem Milevskiy came close to giving Ukraine the lead 10 minutes later but his header was cleared from the goal line by Austria defender Markus Suttner.

Tom Soehn, Vancouvers director of soccer operations, had made the journey to evaluate defender Alain Rochat and midfielder Davide Chiumiento. MINNEAPOLIS -- Kevin Love has used the extra off-season time created by the lockout to reshape his body, a gruelling regimen that will have him reporting to training camp 25 pounds lighter than he was last season. Entering the final year of his rookie contract, his bank account is poised to get a lot heavier. Love worked out at the Minnesota Timberwolves facility on Sunday for the first time since NBA owners and players reached a tentative labour agreement, and he said he was encouraged by the changes the Wolves have made as he prepares to enter into talks on a contract extension. "I love Minneapolis, I love the Twin Cities," Love said when asked if he hoped to sign a deal that would keep him here for the long term. "Really this is all I know. Its the first NBA city I fell in love with. This is all I know. Maybe well keep it that way, maybe we wont." Its no secret that the All-Star forward, who led the NBA in rebounding last season and has emerged as the face of the franchise in the post-Kevin Garnett era, did not always see eye-to-eye with former head coach Kurt Rambis. The two clashed occasionally and Love was growing frustrated with his system, especially as the team lost 132 games over the past two seasons. Team president David Kahn fired Rambis this summer and replaced him with Rick Adelman, an accomplished veteran coach with a history of winning and maximizing the talents of versatile big men such as Chris Webber, Vlade Divac and Jerome Kersey. Love certainly fits that mould, and the Wolves also added pass-first point guard Ricky Rubio and No. 2 overall draft pick Derrick Williams to a very young, but intriguing core. "We were fortunate to get Ricky over here and fortunate to get Derrick Williams," said Love, who averaged 20.2 points and 15.2 rebounds last season. "But we have a young, youthful group. Theres an electricity with this unit. Were definitely going to be able to coexist on the floor and grow together. Were looking forward to building this team from now on and I think Rick (Adelman) was also a big step in doing that." With the new collective bargaining agreement still being ironed out, it remains unclear how much time thhe Timberwolves will have to sign Love to an extension before risking losing him as a free agent after the season.

Love is wildly popular in Minnesota with a fan base that has eroded over the past five years, but he is also viewed in scouting circles as a No. 2 player at best on a contending team. So do the Wolves sign him to a max contract and risk compromising their ability to pay big money to a go-to player at some point? Or can they convince him to take a little bit less money, stay in small-market Minnesota and grow with this young team? "Am I worth the max?" Love said on Sunday. "Ill let the front office answer that." Kahn said last week that keeping the power forward in Minnesota is a priority. "I expect Kevin to be a big part of our franchise for a number of years," Kahn said. Teams and agents cannot technically start negotiating new deals yet, and Love said he planned to speak with agent Jeff Schwartz in the next week about what to expect. The numbers he has produced early in his career no doubt will merit a big payday and he clearly has spent some time thinking about maximum extensions. Love lamented one proposed aspect of the new deal, a "Derrick Rose" clause that would allow a player to be paid 30 per cent of the teams payroll -- rather than the usual maximum 25 per cent -- if he is voted an All-Star starter twice, made two All-NBA teams or was the league MVP in his first four seasons. Love stopped short of saying that he would definitely sign an extension with the Timberwolves, but did say he doesnt think the situation will distract him or the team from preparing for the season. "I dont think it would be a distraction. Whatever happens, happens," he said. "Right now its not up to me. All I can do is go out there and help my team get better. Thats what we need more than anything at this point. "Hopefully we can get out there on the court and learn from Rick as soon as possible and get to working with the coaching staff as well. Im looking forward to getting back to work and helping out this organization get better." ' ' '
