Play by play

  1. 94'

    And that's all over - Chelsea 4 Everton 1. Everton surely can't qualify for the Champions League now, while Chelsea go up to third.

  2. 94'

    Zola only needed one, delicate touch to score

  3. 93'

    GOAL! Zola scores a magical goal to cap Chelsea's win, lobbing Wright from the left flank.

  4. 92'

    Nasymith goes on a sideways solo run, but then tries to thread a pass through - and there's no one there.

  5. 91'

    And Liverpool lead at Anfield - they're still in the battle for the Champions League places

  6. 90'

    Four minutes of stoppage time to be added on here.

  7. 90'

    Ferguson wins the header, Campbell meets it and heads wide. A good chance.

  8. 89'

    Lampard is unfortunate to be penalised as Gravesen slips. Everton will pile everyone forward.

  9. 88'

    Rooney whips in a cross, but it is straight at Cudicini.

  10. 87'

    Graeme Le Suax comes on as Gronkjaer - the probable Man of the Match - is substituted.

  11. 87'

    Liverpool are level against Charlton now - captain Sami Hyypia their goalscorer.

  12. 86'

    De Lucas thinks he's held back by Gemmill in the Everton box. Ref Riley disagrees

  13. 86'

    So nearly a grandstand finish here - Chelsea need to look out for Carsley more.

  14. 85'

    Gravesen chips it in and the unmarked Carsley swivels and volleys inches wide

  15. 84'

    And Gudjohnsen goes off now, to be replaced by Carlton Cole.

  16. 84'

    Zola has a go, but his effort is some way over the bar.

  17. 84'

    Gudjohnsen turns Carsley near the Everton box and is tugged back by the Toffees goalscorer.

  18. 83'

    Gravesen's deep cross puts Carsley and Gallas in a race - and a goal kick is the result.

  19. 82'

    Zola comes on as Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink departs

  20. 81'

    Campbell clatters Cudicini as they challenge for a long pass. The ball breaks to Ferguson, but ref Riley blows up as he shoots wide.

  21. 80'

    Gronkjaer is tormenting Hibbert now. He finds Petit, who crosses, but Hasselbaink can't direct his header

  22. 79'

    Carsley has a go from distance, Petit miscues his clearance and is greateful Cudicini is there to gather

  23. 78'

    Duncan Ferguson has entered play as a substitute for Li Tie.

  24. 76'

    He made a burst through the middle to meet Scott Gemmill's pass and cap an excellent passing move

  25. 76'

    GOAL! Lee Carsley pulls one back for Everton with a fine finish
