EVERTON (2) vs (0) MAN CITY - FULL TIME

David Moyes has put out the strongest team as yet, though the players on the bench are anything but experience.

Everton is playing with alot of spirit and they are taking the game to Man City. Both Saha and Donovan had opportunities, but both chances were spurned by the opposing team. Great, great shot by Bily in the 26th minute that forced the opposing goalkeeper to palm the ball away. So far, Everton is controlling the game and their confidence is for all to see.

Beautiful goal by Pienaar!!! A nice free kick curler and the ball just tucks into the bottom left of the goal! Everton 1-0 Man City. It was just coming! Wonderful chest down by Timmy. Bily took it in his stride and so nearly scored a beautiful goal in the 42nd minute.

GOAL!!!!!!! Saha scores. A penalty given to Everton as the opposing defender was tugging at Saha's jersey. Everton 2-0 Man City.

Totally breathtaking game!

Everton started where they end off. Pressure is on! But the second half though seemed a little more scrappy. Coleman is in for the fast tiring Distin who have just returned from injury. Also,
Bily seems to be very interested in today's game somehow.

Man City really didn't know what hit them and the opposing team are just holding on. Felli puts in a good header in the 78th minute but was palmed against the post and back into play. So, so close. Another ball hits the post! Oh boy! Good header by Timmy in the 80th minute.

Vaughany is back in the fray to hopefully cause Man City more misery.

Wow! Felli even had time to do a ballet dance with his fancy footwork! Donovan leaves the field with a big round of applause!

The whistle go, and we are now in the top half of the table. It's been one of the longest wait for Everton fans to see such a free-flow soccer from Everton! Brilliant!

Score: Everton 2-0 Man City
Scorer: Pienaa, Saha
Assist: Nil
Subs: Coleman, Vaughny, Baxter

Hi there,
Thanks very much for your interesting blog. It's always nice to see how people on the other side of the globe live, how they share the same joys and sorrows, what they do in their free time, etc.

I actually have a question about your blog. Would you mind helping us with a linguistic research project? We're compiling data from various Singaporean weblogs. All it requires is checking a few boxes. If you want to take part and/or have more questions, drop me a note ( hack2301@uni-trier.de RE: Question ) so that I can then send you the 'official' project eMail. We'd really appreciate your help.

Thanks very much in advance!
Best regards,
