Brian McBride scored his team-leading seventh goal (video) of the English Premier League season as his Fulham team earned a come-from-behind 3-3 tie with West Ham, the third-to-last place club that played with a man down for the last 14 minutes.

McBride's headed goal tied the game at 2-2 in the in the 59th minute. West Ham, for which Jonathan Spector came on as an 11th minute sub, took a 64th-minute 3-2 lead before Philippe Christanval hit the last-minute equalizer. Carlos Bocanegra, who looked bad while failing to control Spector's long pass on West Ham's third goal, went the full 90 for Fulham, which dropped to 13th place. West Ham's Bobby Zamora was ejected for his second yellow card, received for a foul on Bocanegra.

Blackburn, with Brad Friedel in goal, dropped to 12th place with a 2-0 loss to Arsenal.

Watford, with defender Jay DeMerit going the full 90, fell, 3-0, to Liverpool and remains in last place.

Actor Sylvester Stallone attended as Everton hosted and tied Reading, 1-1, in a face-off of two American keepers: Tim Howard of Everton and Reading's Marcus Hahnemann, who mistimed his move out of the goal and was chipped by Andrew Johnson. Everton moved into seventh place while Reading remains in the ninth.

Neither DaMarcus Beasley nor Claudio Reyna, who is expected to sign with the New York Red Bulls, saw action for Manchester City in its scoreless tie with Bolton.
