LONDON (AFP) - An error by Tim Howard helped Tottenham 1-1 draw against Everton and move to third place in the Premier League. Everton, supported by their victory over Liverpool in the Merseyside derby last week had a dream Dallas Cowboys jersey
start after 17 minutes when Leighton Baines curled a magnificent 25-yard free-kick to silence the White Hart Lane crowd.
But the Spurs tied the game almost immediately after a terrible mistake that Howard was a nightmare for the American goalkeeper.
There seemed little danger when the Spurs defender Alan Hutton turned a harmless looking cross from the right. Howard extended his line, but the holes for security could not graze the ball to Peter Crouch, who put on the face of the goal for the Dutch, in the form of Rafael van der Vaart, the Equalizer says.

the game, Harry Redknapp could not penetrate a well-organized men Everton line-up. You're a good team. You do not get an easy game with Everton, never do, Redknapp told Sky Sports afterwards. We had the best chance, but I'm happy with a point back from 1-0, we find the extraordinary. Everton boss David Moyes was also pleased with a point earned by a lineup that unconditional Mikel Arteta, Marouane Fellaini and Jack Rodwell is missing.
Long before the Liverpool and Tottenham, four points if I admitted that I have no doubt, said Moyes. So we give the players great recognition. They worked hard for the points.
We came here today without Arteta, Fellaini and children, Jack Rodwellthe has played a great job today. This is not the first time this season, the Spurs seemed to suffer from a hangover after their 4-3 European Champions League against Inter Milan at the San Siro on Wednesday.
Nowhere was most evident in the performance of Gareth Bale, the author of a hat-trick against Inter, but largely anonymous against Everton.
Crouch sporadic air threat in defense and attack caused great resources Everton had a penalty midway denied the first half when he was caught by Phil Neville and Phil Jagielka. Crouch also missed a golden opportunity to assume Tottenham in the race at half time after a cross from Hutton ill chosen, as his header deflect directly to Howard.
