Three matches into the EPL season and now we have our first international break. The action resumes September 12^th after a two week break.

On Sunday, Liverpool finally picked up a 1-0 win over West Brom.

Super striker for the Reds Fernando Torres scored the only match of the goal in the 65^th minute.

Torres is still not a 100%. He has had two major knee operations plus a pulled hammy in Spain’s World Cup final match in July.

His score showed how great this player is. Torres shifed ball the ball and fired the volley into the back of the net.

Game, set, and match to Liverpool.

This was a huge three points for the Reds.

Aston Villa defeated Everton 1-0.

In the battle of American keepers Tim Howard and Brad Friedel, Friedel had the best of it.

Tim Howard made two lights out saves but this was not enough to over come crappy defense by the Toffees.

The score of the match came in the 9^th minute.

Luke Young received a great pass from mate Ashley Young. Luke Young fired home the winner past a helpless Tim Howard.

Toffees defender Marouane Fellaini let the ball slip under his feet. Whamo, bamo turnover. Goal for Villa.

Not good Garoto.

Everton now has two losses and tie to start the season.

This could spell doom for the Toffees.

Villa on the other hand has won two out of their first three matches.

Bolton and Birmingham tied at two all.

Sunderland pulled the upset special of the day beating Manchester City 1-0.

After blowing out Liverpool, what happened?

Lose to lowly Sunderland.

Way to go Garoto.

I love it.

Sybil City is your new name.

A PK in the dying moments cost man City big time.

Choke City baby.

City’s Micah Richards decided to play American Football and tackle the Black Cats Darren Bent.

You dummy.

I love it.

We’ll talk more about this in the next few days.

Another one of those crazy things happened on the way to the forum proclamations in the FA cup on Sunday. Yes indeed Aston Villa and Crystal Palace tied at two all.

Palace is on the verge of bankruptcy. Palace went into administration. They were deducted ten points. This deduction sent them to almost the rear end of the League Championship table. 

On top of that, the players and managers were not sure if they would have a job at weeks end.

The unthinkable happened. Crystal Palace pulled a miracle out of their hat with a hard fought two all tie Aston Villa.

The heroes of the match were Johannes Ertl and Darren Ambrose. Both men ripped the twines to send Villa back home for a do over.

The money earned from the do over will go to pay off Crystal Palace’s 30 million dollar debut.

The Eagles two all tie with Villa is one of the great feel good stories of the FA Cup. Crystal Palace last played in the EPL 2004-05 season.

The Eagles had a great chance to advance to the quarterfinals when Darren Ambrose’s sniper laser shot from thirty yards out beat Villa keeper Brad Friedel dead to rights.

Villa had other thoughts. Stiliyan Petrov swooped down on the Eagles “D”. He scored in the 87^th minute to save Villa’s bacon.

Villa manager knew this baby against Villa would be a nutcracker. So, Martin O’Neil started his best players.

Bolton and Tottenham tied at one all.

Fulham shut out Notts County 4-0.

Spurs were outplayed for 80% of the match but they had a golden opportunity to win this baby in the 72^nd minute. Instead, it was choke city by Tottenham’s Tom Huddlestone. He fired a perfect shot into the belly of Wanderers keeper Jussel Jaaskelainen.

Give me break Tommy me boy. You wear the choke collar perfect. I mean my main man you telegraphed the shot from a mile away.

Jermain Defoe should have taken the PK but he wore the choke collar a week earlier.

Not to give Defoe too much grief for he was the one who nailed the equalizer in the 61^st minute.

This goal saved the Spurs hide from getting the early heave-hoe. Now it is back Spurs house at White Hart Lane for a do over.

Do overs are great aren’t they.

All in all, it was crazy FA Cup weekend.
