Everton winger Anthony Gordon admits he enjoyed their 1-1 draw at Chelsea.

Gordon didn't mind being the underdog, and explained why he actually felt confident heading into the game.

The winger remarked: "It was incredible [to get that result], considering what we were up against.

"I think we had 10 senior players out. A team coming to Chelsea with 10 players out, they will be real underdogs. We stuck together, we dug in and got a result, so we're buzzing.

"I actually felt confident about the game, because I like being the underdog. We didn't have any pressure on us. I thought we could play with a bit of freedom – we played together, showed a lot of character and got a result at the champions of Europe.

"It shows a lot about us as a team. We've had tough times and we've been underperforming. Performances like that can go a long way for the morale of the team and for the fans."

At the end of the match, the Everton fans in the away end were left jubilant after a hard-fought point - and particularly sang Gordon's name in the night air.

And he was, again, delighted to accept their affection.

"The fans were absolutely magnificent and got behind us all through the game," Gordon added.

"It gives me a massive push and I'm sure it does for the rest of the lads as well.

"Our fanbase is one of the best in the world. And to hear them singing at the end, it's absolutely incredible.

"They've sang my name a few times, but never like that. They made me feel like a superstar! It's all I've dreamed of as a kid, so I'm just over the moon."
