Chelsea’s 0-0 draw against Everton at Goodison Park might not have set pulses racing, but for Enzo Maresca, it was a point worth celebrating. In challenging conditions against a defensively astute opponent, the Italian manager found reasons to be optimistic, emphasising his contentment with his team’s resilience and adaptability.
Facing blustery winds and an unrelenting Everton side, Chelsea managed to grind out a result that left them temporarily behind Liverpool in the Premier League standings. The Blues started brightly, creating promising chances in the first half, but were forced to rely on the steady hands of goalkeeper Robert Sánchez as Everton grew into the match.
