Osman stunner snatches point

Robert Huth's first goal for his new club saw Stoke claim a hard-won point in a 1-1 draw against Everton at Goodison Park.[LNB]Huth's header five minutes after the break gave Stoke reward for a spirited, competitive performance. Everton extended their unbeaten run to six games when stand-in skipper Leon Osman lashed home the equaliser from the edge of the box.[LNB]Tim Cahill should have opened the scoring after 15 minutes. Marouane Fellaini swung in a cross from the left, and Cahill ducked low for a header just six yards out, but Thomas Sorensen managed to clutch the effort at the second attempt.[LNB]Osman produced a fine snap shot on the edge of the box which Sorensen saw late but did well to turn over the bar.[LNB]Stoke were ahead five minutes into the second half when Matthew Etherington's right-wing corner curled into the box and Huth soared above Cahill to power home a header.[LNB]The lead lasted just five minutes, however. Johnny Heitinga came forward from the back and exchanged passes with Osman, before Osman struck a fierce drive from the edge of the box that crashed into the net off the underside of the bar.
