Everton 1 Southampton 0

"It's getting like Scotland here in England, isn't it? 'A three-horse race - Arsenal, Chelsea and Everton. The players are doing great. We're not a great team, we're a good team and doing everything we can. Every player is giving their all and really sticking at it." (Bluekipper.com)

Ahahaha..three horse race..i like it.. ;)

It was a game which most Evertonians expected to steam roll past the St.Mary boys..(Just like how we expected to beat Spurs 2 weeks ago) The game started brightly for the Toffees with most if not all possesion on the Everton attacking side..The boys from Southampton was clearly struggling against a very organised Everton midfield..(Hmm..organised midfield..Everton?? erm..oKAY!!)


A moment of silence for Ken Baigley (Okay, the Brit who was prosecuted in Iraq a week ago or so..Yes, Mr.Baigley is an Evertonian..

It was a case of Everton attacking for most of the time and Everton defence was only tested 3 times at MOST throughout the entire game!! And would it be another case of deja-vu like how the Spurs game turned out to be? Then came the brilliant moment, when Leon Osman broke the deadlock at the 88th minute of the game..The goal should have came earlier, but rather late then never!!


An long throw in from Thomas Gravesen and a flick from Big Dunc, and Osman was there to find the net!! Everton 1 Southampton 0!!


3 points, well deserved!!!

Everton 1 Southampton 0
