The Stamford Bridge was the stage for a footballing masterclass yesterday. The Blues of Chelsea took on the Toffees of Everton in a clash that was nothing short of spectacular. Chelsea dominated the game, registering a resounding 6-0 victory over Everton
The star of the show was undoubtedly Cole Palmer. The young prodigy scored a perfect hat-trick and added a penalty to his tally, taking his total to four goals in the match. His performance earned him a perfect 10/10 rating and the Man of the Match award.
Nicholas Jackson and Alfie Gilchrist also put in strong performances for Chelsea, contributing to the comfortable win. Jackson scored a well-taken goal at the end of the first half, and homegrown starlet Gilchrist slammed in his first goal for the club in stoppage time.
With this win, Chelsea moved to within three points of the European qualifying spots. The Blues are now eyeing a spot in Europe, while Everton stays two places and two points above the drop zone.
The Blues now turn their focus to a potentially season-defining FA Cup semi-final with Manchester City on Saturday at Wembley.
In conclusion, it was a night to remember for Chelsea and a game to forget for Everton. But as always in football, there’s always the next game.
