A dynamic game, full of excitement! The London club Chelsea were given a run for their money, but in the end, David Moye's men just couldn't get by with the win they deserved.
Attempting to compensate for the absence of Fellaini, Everton played a more attack oriented formation, with Nikica Jelavic and Victor Anichebe in front as strikers, Leon Osman, Thomas Hitzlsperger, Steven Naismith, and Steven Pienaar in the midfield.
Steven Pienaar fired home in the second minute, drilling a low ball past Cech. A Nikica Jelavic free kick hit the post with the stranded Cech watching in horror. Three minutes before half-time, Frank Lampard headed home for the visitors, bringing the score level.
Nikica Jelavic's header bounced of the crossbar in the second half, before Frank Lampard exploited a mistake in the back to score again for Chelsea. Everton just couldn't equalize before the final whistle.
Everton have been in fine form, winning two and losing one of their three games without Fellaini. Champions League Qualifications are in sight! COYB!
