Everton spank Chelsea as crisis continues
Everton spanked Chelsea as their dismal form continues. Goals from Beto and Iliman Ndiaye boosted Everton’s chances of European qualification while denting Chelsea’s hopes of securing Champions League football next season. Beto became the first Everton player to score twice in one match at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium. Ndiaye sealed victory late in the second half.
Everton now has back-to-back home wins, giving them hope of a first European campaign in eight years. Chelsea’s dismal form continues with a fourth successive defeat in all competitions. James Garner - who received his first England call-up on Friday - later had a shot cleared off the line by Malo Gusto. At half-time, Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior introduced winger Alejandro Garnacho in place of Gusto. Chelsea introduced winger Estevao Willian and striker Liam Delap, who had been a David Moyes transfer target for Everton.
Everton move up to seventh in the Premier League, strengthening their push for European football. They sit just two points behind sixth‑placed Chelsea - who now risk missing out on Champions League qualification.
