Without Hakim Ziyech, who remained on the bench, Chelsea won their first Premier League victory of the season at Everton (1-0).
At Chelsea, the excitement will wait. In the midst of a turbulent summer, where new owner Todd Boehly himself takes on the role of interim sporting director, the London club cannot be choosy after their lackluster but precious victory obtained on the ground of Everton ( 1-0).
The Blues made the difference in the 8th minute of added time in the first period, on a penalty obtained by Ben Chilwell and converted by Jorginho.
Apart from two threats at the start of the second half (Demarai Gray in the 48th minute, then Abdoulaye Doucouré four minutes later), Everton rarely worried the Blues, secured by their new central defender Kalidou Koulibaly, impeccable alongside Thiago Silva and Azpilicueta .
Moroccan Hakim Ziyech remained on the bench.
