Victor Moses is inching closer to winning his first ever Professional League title after Chelsea “turnt” in the second half to make light work of Everton in Saturday’s EPL match at Goodison Park.
Moses played all 90 minutes and put in an above performance as Antonio Conte now set their sights firmly on picking the EPL title.
The first half of the game was nothing like last year’s 1st leg meeting between the sides at Stamford Bridge, where the Toffees were already down 3-0 before the the interval.
But, the second half would prove to be a different tune the league leaders danced to.
Pedro opened the rout on 66′ with the blizzard-like rifled shot from the edge of the box to beat an unsuspecting Maarten Stekelenburg caught of his mark.

Gary Cahill will benefit from a a goalkeeping error and a disoriented defence line…he himself had little to do with the ball that came off his chin to run unfettered into the net for Chelsea‘s second on 79’.
The final goal was a class act, something quite archetypal of this Blues side this season.
Several touches would have the ball end up with substitute Cesc Fabregas cutting back with a low cross for fellow substitute, Willian to pick and shot – He could have walked into the net or taken a nap prior- because at the time the Everton defence had yielded.
Chelsea thus took their points haul to 81; guaranteeing their UEFA Champions League return, and their lead to, and while waiting to find out other implications as the north London derby between Spurs and Arsenal got underway afterwards.
It’s official: Chelsea are guaranteed a place in the Champions League group stage next season. pic.twitter.com/SPVm4zAMyF
