Arsenal Sink Everton to Join Man City at Premier League Summit
Set-piece goals from Ezri Konsa and Gabriel Magalhaes gave the champions their first non-penalty set-piece score this season and kept the title race level.
- Arsenal defeated Everton 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, moving level on 21 points with Manchester City. Defender Ezri Konsa scored his first goal for the club in the opening minutes.
- Following Bukayo Saka's quad injury on Wednesday during the Champions League draw against Bayern Munich, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta adjusted his lineup. Arteta selected Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze as replacements.
- Defender Gabriel Magalhaes doubled the lead midway through the second half with a header from Ben White's cross. Arsenal dominated with 13 shots and 10 corners in the first half alone.
- The victory capitalized on Manchester City's 2-1 defeat at Villa Park earlier Saturday, marking the first time manager Enzo Maresca's side dropped points this season. Both teams now sit on 21 points.
- This win extends Arsenal's perfect home record to four victories this season across all competitions. Everton manager David Moyes struggled to counter the home side's tactical setup, facing mounting pressure.
