Chelsea’s team and staff had their sleep disturbed by Everton fans in the early hours on Sunday morning ahead of the Blues’ defeat at Goodison Park.
Frank Lampard’s Everton side were in a must win game on Sunday afternoon as they bid to avoid a first relegation in over 70 years and got exactly that when the Toffees secured three points. Richarlison’s goal in the early knockings of the second half secured a 1-0 victory for Everton, seeing them reduce their five point deficit on safety to move within two points of 17 th placed Leeds United.
Inside an atmospheric Goodison Park there were chants, flares and all sorts of the support from Everton supporters on the day, but the spirits from them started around 12 hours before a ball was kicked. Video footage online has shown some Everton fans letting off fireworks outside Chelsea ’s team hotel at 2am.
