The results of Everton vs Chelsea in the 2023-2024 Premier League are already known. The duel at Goodison Park Stadium, Liverpool, England, Sunday (10/12/2023) ended with a score of 2-0 in favor of the Toffees.
Goals for Everton were scored by Abdoulaye Doucoure (54′) and Lewis Dobbin (90+2′). Meanwhile, Chelsea suffered their second defeat in a row in the 2023-2024 Premier League.
Chelsea appeared dominant but had difficulty executing opportunities. They took the initiative to attack when the game had only been running for two minutes through Benoit Badiashile, then launched an attack through Cole Palmer’s shot in the 14th minute.
Both opportunities failed to result in goals. Next, Chelsea was confused when facing Everton’s tight defense.
In fact, they didn’t create any chances on target in the remainder of the first half, but Everton were able to appear effective.
After that, the Blues, nicknamed Chelsea, had to lose their right-back, namely Reece James, in the 27th minute. The British player suffered an injury.
Chelsea continued to control the game in the first 30 minutes. However, they have not managed to score any goals. The 2020-2021 Champions League champion managed to shoot five shots, one of which was right on target, before the end of the first half of the duel against Everton. The first half of the Everton vs Chelsea match ended with the score 0-0.
Chelsea received a threat at the start of the second half. Dwight McNeil terrorized the Blues’ goal with a left-footed shot from outside the penalty box in the 49th minute. Robert Sanchez’s brilliant save managed to keep Chelsea from conceding.
Everton managed to break the deadlock through Abdoulaye Docoure’s shot. Chelsea was increasingly under pressure after the goal was scored in the 54th minute.
Everton’s back line appeared very solid. Chelsea’s attempts to break down the defense repeatedly failed.
Three attempts from Raheem Sterling, Nicolas Jackson and Mykhailo Mudryk were successfully neutralized by the back line of the team nicknamed The Tofees.
Then it was Everton who managed to kill the game. Lewis Dobbin closed Everton’s victory with a score of 2-0 over the West London camp.
With this result, Chelsea continued to decline. Mauricio Pochettino’s team suffered two consecutive defeats in the 2023-2024 Premier League after previously being defeated by Manchester United in the middle of the week.
Chelsea’s bad trend in away matches continues. The Blues have never won in three consecutive away matches against Newcastle (1-4), Man United (1-2) and Everton (1-2).
