A victory would have taken Chelsea one point above current leaders Liverpool ahead of their clash with Tottenham later in the day but Maresca’s side had to settle for a point. ‘That was a real game,’ Maresca said as Chelsea returned to west London with a point. ‘I am very happy because the performance of the boys was fantastic.

‘Sometimes you have to play a different game and we are learning to play a different game. They are one of the best teams in Europe in terms of clean sheets. ‘I said to the players I was more happy today than [last week’s] game at Brentford [Chelsea won 2-1]. We tried everything.
‘For sure, you can always do something better but we are very happy because this is a tough stadium – not only for us but also in the Premier League.’. Blues defender Tosin Adarabioyo added to Premier League Productions: ‘It was very difficult. ‘Everton are one of the best teams at keeping clean sheets and we are one of the best at scoring.
‘The first half was very difficult with the weather but we showed fighting spirit. We are having a good run and are full of confidence. We will keep on pushing.’. While Chelsea remain second, two points above London rivals Arsenal, the draw sees Everton move four points above the relegation zone going into Christmas.
