Berbatov made a lazy effort

March 20, 2009

Next >

Goalkeeper Tim Howard saved two penalties against his former club to inspire Everton to a 4-2 shootout win over Manchester United on Sunday which sent them into the FA Cup final for the first time since 1995.

Howard saved United's first two spot-kicks from Dimitar Berbatov and Rio Ferdinand ater a turgid semi-final ended 0-0 after extra time at Wembley Stadium.

    The match itself was largely devoid of inspiration with neither team gaining control and play largely meandering around the midfield.

    In the shootout, Cahill blasted Everton's first penalty over the bar but Howard saved Berbatov's lazy effort.

    Everton went ahead when Leighton Baines scored.
