    FT: Chelsea 1-1 Everton!!! What a result for the away side!! All over at the Bridge and Chelsea should've won. Some poor finishing and some top saves by Pickford meant it stayed 0-0 until the 70th minute when Mount scored. Everton, who had done little going forward, levelled shortly afterwards through Branthwaite. T Silva was brilliantly denied by Pickford and Everton held on to get a huge point. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
  • 95'
    Rudiger tries to win the ball off Kenny, but the ball stays in play and runs through to Pickford. That should be that.
  • 94'
    James puts one into the corridor of uncertainty and Keane clears it away. Chelsea need to put it in the box more.

    It's attack v defence as the visitors have just come for a draw.
  • 94'
    Everton are holding on here with less than two minutes left.

  • 89'
    Time running out for Chelsea...
  • 87'
    Everton attack through Dobbin, but he fails to get a shot off...
  • 86'
    Corner for the home side.
  • 85'
    Free-kick for the hosts, the ball breaks to Saul and his cross is terrible.
  • 82'
    Still 1-1 and this would be a frustrating result for the home side.
  • 80'
    What a save!!! T Silva gets his head to the corner, it looks it's going in the corner and Pickford manages to turn it around the post!
  • 79 '

    Shout for a penalty for Everton as Dobbin goes down in the box, but Oliver says it was a dive! It's the right call as Saul didn't make contact with the Everton man.
  • 76'
    Everton get a corner here.
  • 74 '
    Branthwaite levels for Everton!!!! Unbelievable! Gordon's free-kick is missed by Saul and Branthwaite scores with his foot at the back stick!
  • 71'
    That's a disappointing goal to concede from an Everton perspective and now they need a goal.
  • 70 '
    Mount gives Chelsea the lead!!! Chelsea counter through James, he plays a one-two with Barkley before finding Mount to his right and he beats Pickford at the near post!

    Everton go forward through Godfrey and Iwobi, but the hosts clear the danger.

    Chelsea get us going once again!
  • 45'
    HT: Chelsea 0-0 Everton!! Half-time at the Bridge and the hosts have dominated proceedings, but poor finishing and a fine Pickford means it's goalless. James, Mount, Pulisic and Ziyech have all had clear chances with James' early one and Mount's effort at the end probably the best. Godfrey's half chance is the only thing Everton have done in attack. Back shortly!
  • 45'
    Two extra minutes.
  • 44 '
    Loftus-Cheek sees yellow for a cynical foul on Doucoure on the counter.
  • 43'
    Gordon!! The Toffees go forward and his shot bounces in front of Mendy, but is easy for the GK.
  • 42'
    I think this will be goalless at HT and the Toffees would be delighted with that.
  • 40'
    Godfrey goes forward, but it comes to nothing. Benitez's men have done nothing in attack. They've just had 19% of the ball.
  • 36'
    What a stop by Pickford to deny Mount! Mount plays a lovely one-two with Rudiger and Mount is denied from point blank range! They should be a couple of goals up by now.
  • 36'
    Corner kick for the home side.
  • 34'
    Ziyech!! The Moroccan has a go from inside the D, but his effort goes wide.
  • 32'
    Chelsea are still having all of the possession, but they've yet to find the breakthrough.
  • 29'
    Opportunity for Mount!! Alonso gets the ball in the box and he passes to Mount whose effort is saved.
  • 25'
    Loftus-Cheek and James combine and then the low cross is cleared by Holgate!
  • 23'
    Chelsea counter quickly, but Ziyech shoots well wide from a tight angle when he should've passed.

    Loftus-Cheek is down with an ankle injury after landing awkwardly as he challenged for the ball with Simms. He should be ok though.
  • 18'
    James!!! Alonso's free-kick hits the wall and then James' effort on the rebound goes well over.
  • 18'
    Pulisic is fouled just outside the box and this is more central than the other one. Chelsea are dominating here.
  • 16'
    James goes for goal from the free-kick and Pickford makes the stop! Jorginho can't turn the rebound in either.

    Pulisic now!!! Ziyech does brilliantly to turn past his marker and get into the area and the cut back for Pulisic is turned goalwards with a backheel. but Pickford saves!

  • 8'
    Mount!!! James runs forward and plays in Mount whose shot across Pickford goes wide of the far post!

    James!!!! How did you miss that?? Jorginho plays a pinpoint pass for James who runs onto the ball in the box and he hits wide of the post in the one on one situation!! Should've scored.
