Everton defeated Chelsea 3-0 at Goodison Park to leave the visitors with three losses in 10 days. The result moves Everton further away from the relegation zone, while Chelsea remain in the bottom half of the table. Liam Rosenior's side failed to score for the second successive fixture following a midweek loss in European competition.
Goals from Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Dwight McNeil established a lead for the home team before a late strike confirmed the result, according to the Premier League. Chelsea struggled to maintain possession and recorded fewer shots on target than their opponents. The London club has now conceded seven goals in its last three outings across all competitions.
Per Sky Sports, the defeat marks a difficult period for Rosenior as the league enters the March international break. Chelsea supporters expressed frustration at the final whistle after witnessing a performance lacking defensive discipline. The squad will have 14 days to prepare for its next fixture against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge.
