Osman Snacthes Late Win For The Blues..


Everton picked up there first win on there American tour against Colorado Rapids with a goal from Leon Osman with 3mins to go.Everton had nine first team players starting with two of the up and coming young lads getting a run[Gosling,Rodwell].After Everton poor peformance against Chicago Fire they were eager to get off to a good start and that they did.It was the Arteta show the cravty midfielder who got the action underway when he brust through the midfield and then unleashing a shot from the edge of the area and had the America keeper well beaten.


This is exactly wat Everton wanted a nice early goal to sit on but Colorado Rapids responed diffrently and not as Everton suspected they continued to cause mounts of pressure on the Everton back line and nearly got there reward when Conor Casey close range header was parred away by Howard.Second half got of the a start like the first Conor Casey once again getting a chance at goal when yobo failed to clear a cross and Casey was there to pull his team level.


Everton were now back to square one and had to work harder for there win.Once again Peinaar was the centre attention at the heart of the midfield he was picking out passes left right and centre.Peinaar was at it again pulling the stings in midfield he pulled back a pass for Leon Osman who some how hit it straight at the keeper from six yards chance gone begging with vital time ticking away.But Osman made up for his earlyer mistake with three minutes to go Neville started one final attack feed the ball down the right the the promising talent of Jose Baxter with showed plenty of composure to delightfully square the ball for Leon Osman to tap home from six yards.Lets just hope the form continues.Next Game 9th August PSV 17:15 (H).
