In its second game back in the English Premier League after a relegation stint in the Division 1 hinterlands, Queens Park Rangers got its first victory today, defeating Everton 1-0.


Tommy Smith's goal marked the first for QPR in the EPL in a decade and a half. It was also Everton's first home loss since December. Everton/USMNT goalkeeper Tim Howard is probably very happy about both of these fun facts.
