Lampard brace sinks Toffees

Frank Lampard's days at Chelsea are reportedly numbered, but if that is the case he seems determined to go out in a blaze of glory after netting a brace in the 2-1 win at Everton..

Restored to the starting line-up, the England midfielder scored in each half to inspire his side to recover from Steven Pienaar's second-minute strike and secure a fourth successive league victory.

The win ensured Chelsea head into 2013 in third place in the table, just four points behind second-placed Manchester City with a match in hand.
