Final means everything to tidy Tim

Tim Howard has vowed to take his shot-stopping brilliance into the FA Cup final after writing himself into Everton's record books. The USA international eclipsed Everton legend Neville Southall's 13-year-old record on Saturday when he achieved his 16th league clean sheet of the campaign in the 0-0 home draw with Tottenham. The performance against Spurs, which stopped the Merseysiders reclaiming fifth place in the table, may have been disappointing but Howard is confidently looking forward to the FA Cup final against Chelsea at Wembley on May 30. And Howard said: "Now I aim to keep another clean sheet at Wembley. The one shut-out I really want is at Wembley in the cup final. I would give up all the rest just for that. "We have a couple of league games left and we are still aiming for fifth place. But the thought of Wembley is really motivating us. "We are training hard, everything is very exciting. We aim to end our league programme in style and then really turn it on at Wembley."
