Chelsea 2-2 Everton: Golden point for the Liverpool Blues in the Battle of Eve
In a thrilling game, scoring four goals in the second half, Everton twice responded to Chelsea to earn a valuable 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge that gave them a huge point in their fight for survival.
The clash between the London Blues and the Liverpool Blues on Saturday night (03/18) was exciting as there were four goals, all in the second half and the final as part of the 28th matchday ended 2-2 in Premier League, but only the visitors should smile.
And that’s because Graham Potter’s Chelsea appeared on course for a fourth straight hat-trick in all competitions and took the lead twice, but Everton’s Sean Dyche found just as many replies, the latter coming just in time (89′). and raising it to 15th place and +2 from the relegation line.
Chelsea took the lead in the 53rd minute with Felix’s superb cross from the left, but although they tried to stay in control by dominating possession and creating stages, they conceded an equalizer from a set piece (their Achilles’ heel this season) , with Ducouret scoring the goal 1-1 with a header in the 69th minute.
Minutes later, James won a penalty after being knocked over by Tarkowski and Havertz struck from the spot in the 76th minute to make it 2-1, but even that goal wasn’t enough for the Londoners to take the three points.
Elin Sims was ‘in charge’, the 22-year-old England striker who was supplied by Doukoure and drove powerfully into the home side’s penalty area, passing Koulibaly to defeat Kepa and, with his first goal with the candies, secured the final by 2: 2 to reach Jersey.
A result that, despite the pressure exerted by Chelsea, endured until the final, with Everton earning a very important point in the battle they are leading – along with other teams – in the fight for survival.

Arsenal also destroyed Leeds, responding to Manchester City and keeping the gap between the two teams at seven points. Daniel Pontense’s goal denied Nottingham a win against Wolves.
Manchester City threw the ball at Arsenal and they responded the same. The 4-1 Premier League leaders against Leeds in London kept the gap between the two sides at seven points after 29 games, albeit with a game in hand.
The game was fairly lackluster for about half an hour as neither team found room to create. After the first good moment of the game, the guests scored the first goal with a penalty, which was won and executed by Gabriel Jesus in the 35th minute.
After the 1:0 the tide turned and at the beginning of the 2nd half Ben White scored the 2:0 from close range. Shortly after, Jesus doubled his tally and despite Rasmus Christensen’s equaliser, Arsenal never felt threatened, captain Granit Xhaka making it 4-1.
Nottingham played with fire and it paid off in the end as Wolves drew 1-1 at “City Ground” and kept the gap between the two teams fighting for relegation to one point. The hosts took the lead in the first half with their first-choice scorer Brennan Johnson, but conceded the ball to the wolves from the start, which didn’t turn out to be right. Several finals by either side were unsuccessful until Daniel Pontense, first substitute Julen Lopetegui, equalized to make it 1-1 in the 83rd minute.
