Chelsea slides downhill after defeat in 'blue battle'

Báo Thanh niênBáo Thanh niên10/12/2023


Everton welcome Chelsea at Goodison Park, which is considered a "blue battle" because the two teams have the same traditional blue shirt and have both struggled this season. Chelsea, coached by Mauricio Pochettino, are currently 10th in the Premier League table with inconsistent form despite the new owner spending a lot of money to strengthen their squad. Most recently, they lost 1-2 to MU.

Meanwhile, things looked bleak for Everton a few weeks ago after they were docked 10 Premier League points for breaching financial rules. However, back-to-back wins over Nottingham Forest and Newcastle have seen the Toffees climb out of the bottom three.

Determined to win 3 points, both teams entered the match cautiously, causing the first half to end in a stalemate with only 1 shot on target.

The Blues had more possession thanks to their quality players, but Everton were the most effective team. Sean Dyche's team took advantage of their opportunity in the 54th minute after Abdoulaye Doucoure opened the scoring for Everton with a low shot past Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.

Chelsea are losing their way

The loss forced the visitors to push their formation higher in search of an equalizer in the remaining time. However, Enzo Fernandez, Raheem Sterling, Armando Broja and Nicolas Jackson… all failed to have the flair in their final shots.

This was Chelsea's seventh defeat in the Premier League this season and has made the start of Pochettino's reign even more gloomy. The Blues have dropped to 12th place, 18 points behind leaders Liverpool. The Argentine coach partly blamed the decline on the many injuries at Chelsea. But this is the case at most clubs today.

Everton have an important victory

Chelsea have little patience with managers when their teams are in decline and Pochettino's future will be difficult to maintain if "The Blues" cannot revive. On the contrary, the victory over Chelsea helped Everton increase the gap with the relegation zone to 4 points.

In other matches, defending champions Man City successfully came from behind to beat hosts Luton Town thanks to goals from Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish. With this victory, coach Pep Guardiola's team still ranks 4th, 4 points behind Liverpool.
