Everton got their reward against a Premier League title-chaser for the second time in eight days as they ended Chelsea's eight-match winning streak in a 0-0 draw at Goodison Park.
While the Blues had to be dogged and resolute against Arsenal at the Emirates, they mixed attacking intent with more defensive steel against Enzo Maresca's high-fliers, having chances to win the contest, especially in the second half from wingers Jack Harrison and Iliman Ndiaye.
In front of the Club's new Executive Chairman, Marc Watts, Sean Dyche's men made it three games unbeaten and registered a fifth clean sheet in six to move up to 15th in the Premier League table.
And in a week full of positives which saw The Friedkin Group complete their takeover and the Club officially take charge of Everton Stadium, this was another reason to head into Christmas with the feelgood factor flowing for Evertonians.
