Everton 1-0 Fulham FT
On 85 minutes Leon Osman sent over a fabulous cross from the right, next to the touchline, and Louis Saha heads into the far corner for his first goal for Everton.
Not a great advertisement for the Premier league. Everton lacked the imagination to break down a solid Fulham back four. Fulham rarely attacked.
Both teams created few chances and when they did they were squandered.
Neither team deserved to win.
Everton: Howard, Neville, Yobo, Jagielka, Lescott, Arteta, Osman, Fellaini, Pienaar, Cahill, Yakubu. Subs: Nash, Hibbert, Baines, Saha, Vaughan, Rodwell, Anichebe.

Standard Liege are a good team. Liverpool can attest to that. They met in a Champions League qualifier earlier this season, Liverpool were fortunate to win.
