He capped off a magnificent individual performance by capitalizing on a horrendous error by Everton’s goalkeeper, Jordan Pickford.

The second half saw a slightly slower tempo, but Chelsea remained in control. Palmer continued his impressive performance, converting a penalty just past the hour mark to claim his fourth goal of the night.
Academy graduate Alfie Gilchrist marked his debut with a moment to remember, drilling a composed shot into the net in the 90th minute to put the icing on the cake for Chelsea.
