Everton Thump Chelsea 3-0 to Tighten Race for Champions League Spots
Chelsea’s 2025/2026 Premier League campaign hit a new low on Saturday as Everton secured a commanding 3-0 victory at their new stadium.
The result marks a fourth consecutive defeat for Liam Rosenior’s side, piling immense pressure on the manager just two months into his tenure.
The defeat follows Chelsea’s humiliating 8-2 aggregate exit from the Champions League at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain earlier in the week.
The Toffees’ striker Beto was the star of the show, netting twice to put the game out of reach before Iliman Ndiaye added a third to round off a perfect night for the home side.
As reported by AFP, the win moves Everton to seventh place, just two points behind Chelsea in sixth.
With the top five spots likely to secure Champions League football next season, the race has become a frantic scramble between the two sides.
Chelsea’s nightmare was compounded by another error-strewn performance from goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, whose starting position is now under serious scrutiny.
With a daunting fixture list ahead—including clashes against Manchester City, Manchester United, and Liverpool—the Blues risk falling out of European contention entirely if they cannot find a way to stem the tide of losses.
