    LONDON -- Tim Howard became the fourth goalkeeper to score in the Premier League when the American put in a wind-blown clearance from about 100 yards during Everton's 2-1 loss to Bolton on Wednesday night. The American, playing his 250th club match in England, gave Everton a 63rd-minute lead at Goodison Park. His right-footed kick from about 5 yards inside his own penalty area bounced about 30 yards from the Bolton goal and was blown by the wind over leaping Bolton keeper Adam Bogdan, who was standing by his 6-yard box. Howard hardly reacted.

    When i get home from work i'll post it but honestly it was just a fluke. The wind grabbed it and just happened to carry it over his head. Its funny though because Howard's just like, "Meh" after he scores.

    Did you also know that Americans make up 50% of all time goals scored by Goalies in the premiership? Brad Friedel also scored for AV back in 08 I believe?
