Everton 2-0 Chelsea: Made it “2 out of 2” and fell out of the bottom three places

Everton suffered a major shock with the organizing body’s recent decision to hand them a 10-point penalty for breaching Premier League financial regulations, but they have done it in the best way possible: with back-to-back wins.

After a 1-0 away win against Nottingham and an impressive 3-0 win against Newcastle just 24 hours ago, she ended a magical eight days of her own with a 2-0 win against Chelsea at Goodison Park, with sweets to celebrate for the first time For the first time since March 2021, three wins in a row in the championship and 4 points ahead of the bottom three in the overall standings.

The first half offered little excitement for the crowd as Chelsea had the ball (71%) but only played five finals, one at home, while Everton, for their part, only played two finals and none at home. Goal.

But things changed in the second half as the Liverpool and London Blues got up to speed and both goalkeepers, Pickford and Sanchez, had their work cut out for them. The one who had to get the ball out of his own net was the second in the 54th minute, when he stopped Calvert-Lewin in the four, but had no answer to Ducouret’s drifting right-foot shot, which took the rebound (1 -0 ).

Both teams then had their chances, with Sean Dyce’s side defending their home team effectively and even adding the icing on the cake in injury time when a corner kick brought the ball to Dobbin, who made it 2-0 with a left-footed shot. celebrated his first Premier League goal.

From five to… five in the Fulham area

Marco Silva’s side boasted an enviable attacking pluralism, with five different players (Jimenez, Willian, Andarabioyo, Wilson, Vinicius) scoring goals, with the Cottagers even making history by scoring more than three in four consecutive league games for the first time since October 1961 scored goals.
