Everton and Tottenham both entered the current English Premier League campaign with aspirations of grabbing a Top Four finish in the league, and each will be desperate to grab three points when they meet in London today in order to move up and away from the middle of the table.
The Toffees and Spurs are currently tied on points in the standings, and a win would help one of them climb all the way to a tie for sixth with Arsenal, while a loss would leave one of them tied with Liverpool at mid-table.
In Spain, Barcelona will look to win a third straight La Liga match with a visit to fourth-place Valencia today. Lionel Messi’s side can move within two points of first-place Real Madrid with a win.
If you want to catch a glimpse of the future then seeing the U.S. Under-17 Men’s National Team will be your pick, as the young Americans take on Australia in the Nike Friendlies.

Way to go, once again, MLS. Start the marquee matchup well after 9pm on the east coast. Buy a map you dolts, 47% of the country lives in the eastern time zone. Idiots.
But Seattle!!
Just gave three more hours for Alonso’s hamstring to heal 🙂
Better late than never, Barca.
Let’s Go Galaxy!
Clemson and UNC don’t play until 6PM EST.
Doesn’t look like Dortmund’s moving off the bottom this week
Ya… They might need a new manager just to have someone different there. It’s not that Klopp is bad but 6 years is a long time.
Thomas Tuchel is available. He would be tempting…
Every goal Lampard scores makes it feel less likely that he’ll show up on time for MLS.
If you owned both clubs and you had a player scoring goals for the important one, would you send him to the unimportant one while you still needed him?
Thankfully he is not owned by cfg, he is owned by MLS so we don’t have to worry about that.
C’mon, man. Let’s not pretend like MLS doesn’t write it’s rules on an etch-a-sketch. Lampard will be wherever the Sheikh wants him to be.

Now del g has to sing the very sorry song.
Howard ate that goal. Bad.
And this is why Keylor Navas plays for Real Madrid and Timmy Boy plays for Everton.
Howard is over rated. Lets in a lot of soft goals
And then he gets scored on by Soldado of all people.
The thing with Howard is he makes the saves that you expect from one of the best keepers in the world but he makes more mistakes then them. I never had him rated as one of the best in the world but he’s still an elite keeper
I think both Portugal goals were on him. The first he got faked or of his shoes, and the second he should have punched away.
Geoff Cameron gave the ball to a wide open Nani….
That’s never the keepers fault.
True, It didn’t look great that Howard was on the ground before Nani shot, but it still was far from his fault
What? LOL!!!!!!!!
keylor navas plays?
Navas has played 2 league games and 2 cup games for Real Madrid since he transferred there after the World Cup.
.
Timmay u gotta parry those shots away from the goal
Super frank, super frank
