Pedro Neto scored twice in the second half to secure a vital victory for Chelsea at Goodison Park. The Blues' win keeps them in the hunt for a top‑four finish, while Everton face another setback in their campaign.
In a tightly contested match at Goodison Park on Saturday, Chelsea managed to secure a vital away win over Everton thanks to Pedro Neto’s late heroics.
Neto opened the scoring with a quick strike after the break, followed by a second goal that sealed the victory. His two goals were the difference between the Blues and a defeat.
