Tim Howard Everton 55

An American soccer legend made his return to his club’s starting lineup this weekend in England, while a rising star returned to the bench in Germany.

Tim Howard made his first start in months for Everton, after manager Roberto Martinez announced the shot stopper would play the final two games of the season. Howard made one save as his side beat Bournemouth 2-1 at Goodison Park.

While U.S. Men’s National Team fans will feel good about Howard’s return to top flight soccer right before leading the backline at Copa America, they will be saddened by Christian Pulisic’s lack of minutes in Borussia Dortmund’s match this weekend. Pulisic dressed, but did not enter the match as Dortmund secured a 5-1 result at home against Wolfsburg.

Back in the Premier League, DeAndre Yedlin’s Sunderland drew level at the death with Stoke City, thanks to a penalty conceded by compatriot Geoff Cameron. The American centerback clipped Jermain Defoe in the box, and the English striker put away the spot kick to earn Sunderland another crucial point in the relegation battle.
