LIVERPOOL, England -- Three observations from Goodison Park, where Everton advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals with a 2-0 victory over Chelsea.
1. Lukaku powers Everton through
It was only a matter of time before Romelu Lukaku scored against Chelsea. Four matches came and went, along with several presentable chances to underline the folly of Jose Mourinho's decision to sell the powerful young Belgian to a Premier League rival in the summer of 2014, but on Saturday the point was finally made in the most emphatic fashion possible.
A peripheral figure until the 78th minute, Lukaku showed power and poise to bully the Chelsea defence and provide the moment that turned the match.
