Beto and Ndiaye fire Everton to victory as Chelsea’s woes deepen | OneFootball

Chelsea suffered a 3-0 defeat to Everton in the Premier League at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday.

Robert Sanchez almost gifted Everton the opener after Beto caught him on the ball, but he recovered to clear the danger away.

Beto broke the deadlock in the 33rd minute after he was played in behind by James Garner, and he finished beyond Sanchez with a lovely chip.

Chelsea almost responded immediately as Enzo Fernandez was denied from close range by Jordan Pickford.

Both sides failed to create any other clear-cut chances, and the Toffees went into the break with the lead.

Beto doubled the hosts’ advantage after Idrissa Gueye picked him out, and he drilled his strike through the legs of Sanchez.

Fernandez could’ve pulled one back in the 68th minute after he linked up with Joao Pedro in the area, but Pickford denied him.

Estevao Willian almost scored moments later, but his effort struck the top of the bar.

Illiman Ndiaye completed the scoring after latching onto Beto’s flicked header. He curled a fine finish into the top corner.

Everton secured valuable points in their quest for European football, while Chelsea are sixth after missing the chance to move into the top four.
