Everton 1-2 Chelsea

Everton´s 14-game unbeaten home run came to an end as Chelsea come from behind to win 2-1 at Goodison Park.

Everton got off to a flyer, when Steven Pienaar rifled home an opener after just 63 seconds. Pienaar finished a move he started as Victor Anichebe´s header from Phil Jagielka´s cross rebounded back off the post for the South African to power home from 12 yards out.

But Lampard struck to bring Chelsea level after a first half in which they were largely dominated by the hosts, before the veteran midfielder pounced on a loose ball in the second half to claim what would proved to be the winner.

FT Everton 1-2 Chelsea.
