The
Brazil-born Spaniard – who was a fitness doubt for the game with a
minor muscular injury – continued his prolific scoring form as goals
reigned supreme at Goodison Park
Everton 3-6 Chelsea
A
clinical double from Diego Costa helped Chelsea withstand a spirited
Everton fightback and triumph in a nine-goal classic at Goodison Park.
Costa
and Branislav Ivanovic struck inside three minutes to put Jose
Mourinho’s men in a commanding position but a flying Kevin Mirallas
header brought the hosts back into contention before the interval.
A
Seamus Coleman own goal on 67 minutes put Chelsea back in control
before Nemanja Matic, Samuel Eto’o and Ramires struck within the space
of four incredible minutes, but Costa netted again at the death as the
Blues held on to preserve their 100 per cent start to the season.
