Fulham's American Boys
Posted October 1, 2007 Posted Under: EPL, Yanks Abroad
With the largest collection of American players, Fulham FC and American goalkeeper Kasey Keller was able to keep Chelsea to a 0-0 draw. While Keller made an agrument to keep the number one spot, Carlos Bocanegra probably had one of his stronger games of the season. Clint Dempsey was on the field as well, and although he didn't score a goal - he did collide with Chelsea captain John Terry, causing a fractured cheek bone.
Here's how the other Americans did this weekend:
Everton's Tim Howard earned a shut out against Middlesbrough.
Reading's Marcus Hahnemann played in the 7-4 loss to Portsmouth. For more on that game, check out Highest Scoring Premiership Game...EVER.
