Chelsea's Unbeaten Start to the Season Ends at Everton
Lampard's Blues Suffer First Defeat
Palmer's Penalty Sinks Chelsea
Chelsea's unbeaten start to the 2022-23 Premier League season came to an abrupt end on Saturday as they were defeated 1-0 by Everton at Goodison Park.
The match was closely contested, with both teams having chances to score. However, it was Everton who took the lead in the 13th minute when Cole Palmer converted a penalty after Malang Sarr was adjudged to have fouled Anthony Gordon.
Chelsea pushed for an equalizer, but they were unable to find a way past a resolute Everton defense. The Toffees held on for a valuable victory, which lifts them out of the relegation zone.
For Chelsea, this was a disappointing result. They had been in impressive form in recent weeks, but they were unable to find their rhythm against a determined Everton side.
The defeat will be a setback for Lampard, who is still trying to find the right balance in his team. Chelsea will now be looking to bounce back when they face Liverpool in their next match.
