Everton Goalkeeper Tim Howard may be the best at his position in the English Premier League. The part time broadcaster for NBC Sports and United States National Team keeper had clean sheets aplenty this past season, and on the strength of Howard the Toffees almost qualified for Champions League play.
Today, Tim Howard showed us why he’s one of the best, if not the best goalkeeper in the World Cup. In the United States 2-2 draw with Portugal, he made this super human save.
Also have you seen Howard in the second part of Nike’s ‘Risk Everything’ 2014 soccer campaign titled, “Winner Stays” was launched today.
