Jorginho's late first-half penalty was enough to give Chelsea a 1-0 victory over Everton in the English Premier League on Saturday for the London club's first win at Goodison Park in five visits.

It was far from a convincing performance from Thomas Tuchel's team, though, against an Everton side that was playing without a recognized striker and lost two players to injuries.
