Everton Wins Three Crucial Points Against Chelsea Thanks To Jordan Pickford’s heroics And Richarlison’s Goal

Richarlison profited from a Chelsea error to secure struggling Everton a 1-0 Premier League win and what could be a precious three points in their bid to avoid relegation at a rocking Goodison Park on Sunday.

The home side grabbed the lead a minute into the second half after Cesar Azpilicueta gave up possession under pressure from the Brazilian forward, who harried the Chelsea captain into a mistake before slotting a low shot past goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.

Chelsea dominated possession and Frank Lampard’s Everton had to hold on grimly for the final half-hour.

They stay in the relegation zone, but move to within two points of Burnley and Leeds with a game in hand.

Chelsea remain third with 66 points from 34 games as they bid to qualify for the Champions League.

They are six points ahead of fifth-placed Arsenal, but have now played a game more.
