We taking over!

Stoke 2-3 Everton
Now I probably need to start out by saying I'm not a fan of either club.  In fact Everton significantly ostracised me in the nineties when they bought Daniel Amokachi only to let him rot on the substitute bench (though my friend Jide swears blind that as a Naija boy Amokachi would have been over the moon to collect his dough without having to exert himself).

But why I think the score from yesterday's Premiership match was particularly striking was because it had three different Nigerian Players on the Score sheet.  Olofinjana for Stoke, Anichebe and Yakubu for Everton. Now if only Joseph Yobo had been able to get himself on the score sheet too...
