'Goal' Palmer scores four in 6
LONDON (AP) — Cole Palmer put on an unstoppable display with a perfect first-half hat trick and a fourth in the second half as Chelsea demolished Everton 6-0 in the English Premier League on Monday.
Palmer scored with his left foot, head and right foot in the 13th, 19th and 29th minutes to become the first Chelsea player to score in seven successive home games.
The Manchester City reject stroked home a superb first from just outside the box and nodded in the second from close range after Jordan Pickford could only parry Nicolas Jackson’s shot.
His third was a wonderful 35-yard lob after Pickford needlessly gifted him possession.
Nicolas Jackson added a fourth a minute before halftime, and Palmer made it 5-0 from the penalty spot in the 64th.
Substitute Alfie Gilchrist’s first goal for the club made it six in injury time.
Palmer’s goals took his season’s tally to 20 in the league, tied with Manchester City’s Erling Haaland.
