Tim Howard hanging with former Spurs coach, Ted Lasso... with a Rebecca Lowe tv photobomb for good measure.

Howard’s defiance against Belgium was broken in extra-time by Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku. Despite Julian Green’s response and several late chances there was no reprieve for the US and Howard’s night deteriorated when selected for a post-match doping test. Not easy after sweating for 120 minutes in Salvador, nor when the Belgium player chosen turned out to be Lukaku – the match-winner who turned his Everton loan spell from Chelsea into a permanent stay for £28m after the World Cup.

“I was happy for him as a person because I regard the guys at Everton as like my family. I love those guys,” Howard says. “It was heartbreaking to lose but I was oddly happy for him because I believe in him and love him as a person. He is not arrogant, he is a good person.
 

Tim is ace. Is he the best keeper ever? No, but for a club with our finances it's simply not efficient to pay for a world class keeper. There aren't many better than him, not even regarding "our price range"

Loved that moment. Bittersweet, but proud of both Evertonians.
