Chelsea climbed back into contention for next season’s Champions League with a 1-0 home win over Everton in the Premier League on Saturday thanks to a fine first-half strike by Nicolas Jackson.

The Senegal striker, fed by Enzo Fernandez, drove low into the bottom corner past a diving Jordan Pickford in the 27th minute for his first goal in four months. The result lifted Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea to fourth in the table on 60 points, one point behind Manchester City who are in FA Cup action this weekend.

“At this stage of the season, the result is the main thing,” Maresca said. “We are going to be better because the players will understand better how to play different games.”
