“Defensively we were very good. We didn’t give many chances, just two from outside the area. I think the defenders coordinate very well with the midfielders. The way the team fights is world class.
“We won today because of enthusiasm, not because of the way we played. I want to see that spirit again against Leicester,” explained the Italian coach.
The victory over Chelsea brought Everton to seventh place 20 points four points behind Liverpool at the top of the table. In the next game, they will face Leicester City on Wednesday (12/17).
