Pickford And Tarkowski Get 5 | Everton Players Rated In Poor Loss Vs Chelsea | OneFootball

Everton clashed heads with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge earlier tonight as they hoped to grind out a result on the road in the Premier League. The Toffees made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 13th minute when Cole Palmer got his name on the scoresheet. Palmer doubled Chelsea’s lead just five minutes later before going on to secure his hattrick in the 29th minute. Everton found themselves 4-0 down in the 44th minute when Nicolas Jackson found the back of the net. Sean Dyche’s men went into the half-time break 4-0 down on the scoreline.

Palmer scored again from the penalty spot in the 64th minute before Alfie Gilchrist made it 6-0 to Chelsea late in the game. The match ended with Chelsea suffering a poor 6-0 loss away from home.
