Nicolas Jackson found his scoring touch again, firing home his first goal of 2025 to help Chelsea against Everton on April 26.
After a frustrating 13-game spell without finding the net, the Senegalese forward finally gave Blues fans something to cheer about with a well-taken goal in the 27th minute.
Midfielder Enzo Fernandez played a key role in the breakthrough, setting up Jackson perfectly to slot the ball past the Everton goalkeeper. It was Jackson’s first strike since December 15, 2024, when he scored during Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Brentford.
This latest goal pushes Jackson’s tally for the season to 10 goals and 5 assists across 29 matches. His timely return to form is a big boost for a Chelsea side aiming to finish the Premier League season on a high.
Chelsea supporters are thrilled to see Jackson end his goal drought, believing it could spark a strong run of performances in the final stretch of the campaign. The pressure had been building, but Jackson’s finish against Everton could not have come at a better time.
