Everton earned a 0-0 draw against Premier League title challengers Chelsea at Goodison Park.
Sean Dyche hailed his Everton players for ‘coming through a storm’ as they earned a share of the spoils against Chelsea.
The Toffees battled to a goalless draw with Premier League title challengers at Goodison Park. Everton did have chances throughout the encounter, with Jack Harrison spurning a one-on-one opportunity in the second half before Iliman Ndiaye had an effort drilled down.
Everton next travel to Manchester City on Boxing Day. They will be without Ashley Young, however, after he picked up his fifth booking of the season and must serve a suspension. However, Dyche admitted that the right-back suffered a neck issue during the Chelsea draw, which was partly why he was substituted.
The Blues boss told reporters at his post-match press conference: “Youngy is suspended anyway but he ripped his neck then he did a brilliant header at the far stick. We had to take him off for both reasons – to make sure he was OK physically and was on a yellow card.”
