SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. -- After his Chicago team had come back to beat Las Vegas 7-5 in the U.S. final on Saturday at the Little League World Series, manager Darold Butler admitted he wasnt sure what came next. "I dont even know what time tomorrows game is," he said. "Anybody know?" For the record, his Jackie Robinson West team meets South Korea in the World Series championship game on Sunday at 3 p.m. He and his players were so focused on their game with the West Region champions from Las Vegas that they didnt pay a whole lot of attention to Saturdays earlier game. South Korea walloped Japan 12-3 to take the International title, setting up the matchup at Lamade Stadium. "To be honest, (I saw) bits and pieces, but I cant tell you much about our next opponent," Butler said. He said it was more important how his own team plays rather than dealing with strategy and a game plan. "Im going to do my research, to put the team in the best position to win this game," he said. "But at the same time, I love our style of baseball. Were going to run, were going to be aggressive. Theres going to be times Im going to burn runners -- sometimes Im a little bit too aggressive. "But I prefer to put the pressure on 11-, 12- and 13-year-old kids. I figure if we put enough pressure on them, some of their kids are going to make mistakes." South Korea didnt make many in the International final. Sang Hoon Han and Jun Ha Yoo homered in South Koreas dominating victory, while Hae Chan Choi added three RBIs. Including this year, South Korea has reached Williamsport just three times in the tournaments 68-year history. The two previous appearances -- 1984 and 1985 -- ended in championships. Manager Jong Wook Park said despite that history, there isnt any heightened sense of pressure. "People back home just cheer for us," Park said. "Wed like to win as much as possible, but just to be here is winning already." Chicago had no sooner beaten Las Vegas than fans started chanting, "U-S-A! U-S-A!" Clearly, the American team will have a partisan crowd in the championship game. But playing in front of a pro-U.S. crowd wont faze the South Koreans. "I dont really care about the crowd," Yoo said. Much like the Americans, the Asia-Pacific Region champions are more worried about how they play than what the other team might do. "We just need to keep doing what weve been doing so far," pitcher Dong Hyeok Kim said. Kevin Trapp Jersey .

Dani Alves Jersey . -- Cam Newton pranced into the end zone, placed his hands over his chest and did his familiar Superman pose.DENVER -- Josh Harding was brilliant in regulation and only got better from there, showing why hes one of the leagues top goaltenders. Harding made two glove saves in the shootout and Mikko Koivu scored the deciding goal as the Minnesota Wild rallied for a 2-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night. "If Harding isnt as good as he is, we score a few more," lamented Matt Duchene, who had the Avalanches lone goal in the shootout. But he is that good, lowering his goals-against average to an NHL-best 1.49. Harding had 26 saves and then nonchalantly described his performance by saying, "I felt good." This was a big road win for the Wild after losing in San Jose and Anaheim. That they mustered this sort of come-from-behind effort in their third contest in four days made it all the more impressive to coach Mike Yeo. "After two periods, Im thinking to myself, Man, we look like we have nothing in the tank. We look tired," Yeo said. "There were plays or decisions we made that are usually kind of a result of fatigue. The way they stepped up in the third period, the way they kept themselves in the game, the way they battled to give ourselves a chance to score that goal -- that was a big character win." Trailing 1-0, Nino Niederreiter tied the game with 3:53 remaining in regulation when he deflected in a shot from Ryan Suter in front of the net. Perhaps only fair, since Colorado scored its lone goal in regulation when a shot clanked in off the skate of Maxime Talbot. "Two fluky goals," Avalanche coach Patrick Roy said. "They were not pretty goals, but at the same time part of the game." Koivus goal was nifty, sending a backhand just over Semyon Varlamov and just under the crossbar. Zach Parise also scored for the Wild in the shootout. So, is that the type of shot Koivu envisioned all along? "Im not going to tell you what I wanted to do because every time we go against these guys were in a shootout," Koivu said. After Duchene scoredd to open the shootout, Harding stopped P.ddddddddddddA. Parenteau and Ryan OReilly to preserve the win. "I dont think we played bad hockey," Duchene said. "I thought we played a heck of a hockey game. Were having tough luck right now. We made a lot of good plays and the one that goes in for us hits a skate and goes in. I thought maybe the bounces were going to go our way." Midway through the second period, Cory Sarich unleashed a shot from just inside the blue line that deflected off of Talbots skate and past Harding. It was Talbots second goal for the Avs since being acquired from Philadelphia on Oct. 31. Niederreiter tied it up when his deflection trickled past Varlamov. Once again, the Avalanche struggled on the power play. Theyre now 0 for 26 over their last 10 games. It was a clean first period, with no goals and just one penalty on Minnesotas Jonas Brodin for interference. Harding came up big in the opening 20 minutes and stopped all 11 shots he faced, including a point-blank attempt from Cody McLeod. Defenceman Jan Hejda was back on the ice for Colorado after missing a week with a right knee injury. He had to be helped off the ice in Edmonton on Dec. 5 after losing an edge and going feet first heavily into the boards. "Wasnt as bad as how it looked on television," Hejda joked before the game.
