Chelsea scored twice inside the opening three minutes and three more times in a chaotic 11-minute spell in the second half on its way to a wild 6-3 win over Everton on Saturday, clinching a third straight Premier League victory.

Diego Costa began the rout with a goal after 34 seconds and ended it in the final minute to take his tally to four goals in three games since joining from Atletico Madrid over the summer.

Branislav Ivanovic added to Costa's early goal to leave Everton 2-0 down at Goodison Park but Kevin Mirallas reduced the deficit just before halftime.

Seamus Coleman's own goal made it 3-1, with Nemanja Matic and Ramires also scoring for Jose Mourinho's side. Steven Naismith and Samuel Eto'o we8re Chelsea's other scorers.
