Everton secured their biggest win over Chelsea since 1987 with a commanding 3-0 victory at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday.
Striker Beto was the star of the show, netting twice before Iliman Ndiaye sealed the points with a sublime curling effort into the top corner.
The win moves Everton up to eighth in the standings and keeps their hopes of European qualification alive.
Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior defended his team’s effort but acknowledged that a fourth straight defeat in all competitions was unacceptable for a club of their stature.
The Toffees fans created a hostile atmosphere from the start, celebrating back-to-back home wins for the first time at their new ground.
