Everton 3-0 Chelsea: Blues’ Champions League Hopes Dented
Chelsea’s bid to reach next season’s Champions League suffered a major setback with a 3-0 defeat at Everton. It is back-to-back Premier League losses for the Blues after last weekend’s 1-0 reverse to Newcastle. They have now gone four games without a win in all competitions. Everton’s Portuguese forward Beto opened the scoring in the 33rd minute and added a second on 62 minutes, set up by a lung-bursting run from Idrissa Gana Gueye. Senegalese international Iliman Ndiaye wrapped up the rout with a composed finish in the 75th minute. The victory lifts Everton to seventh on 46 points. Chelsea remain sixth with 48 points and face an uphill battle to secure a top-four finish.
