Chelsea will look back at Everton win as title clincher - Neville

Published on: 02 May 2017

Former Manchester United defender and current Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville believes Chelsea will look back on their 3-0 victory over Everton on Sunday as the match that clinched the Premier League title.

Away from home against seventh placed Everton, the Blues blew Ronald Koeman's side off the pitch in the second half with goals from Pedro, Gary Cahill and Willian.

"There are always big moments in the season but when we look back, I think Chelsea's win at Everton will be regarded as the final hurdle," he said on the Gary Neville Podcast via Sky Sports.

"I know they've got to get over the line but just look at the fixtures they have.

"The game didn't materialise as I thought it would. I've played and worked at Goodison Park and seen a hostile atmosphere develop to where it could become quite intense.

"You could see from the celebrations from the Chelsea staff and players how big of a result that was."
