The Premier League meeting between Everton and Chelsea was interrupted for a long time after a clash between Emiliano Martinez and Jarrad Branthwaite, following an eccentric free kick in favor of the Toffees. If the defender, stunned, got up after 3 minutes on the ground, this is not the case for the goalkeeper.
The Argentinian had to be evacuated on a stretcher with a neck brace around his neck after 10 minutes of stoppage in play. The good news is that he was conscious and even shook the hand of his partner, Joao Pedro. He was replaced by the former Strasbourg player, Mike Penders. The Blues lead 1-0 with a quarter of an hour to go.
