Chelsea tightened their grip on third place in the Premier League with a 3-1 victory over Everton at Stamford Bridge this evening.
Goals from striker Daniel Sturridge and captain John Terry put the home side in a commanding position heading into the break.
That advantage was extended just over the hour mark thanks to Brazilian midfielder Ramires who scored from close range after a pass from Juan Mata.
The visiting Toffees continued to search for a route back into the game and ten minutes from time Apostolos Vellios found just that when he converted Leon Osman's cross from six yards out.
However, it proved to be little more than a mere consolation for David Moyes' side, who now sit 13th in the league table.
