Arsenal secured a 2-0 victory over Everton at the Emirates Stadium, moving into a tie with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League standings. The match, played in rainy conditions, saw goals from Ezri Konsa and Gabriel in the 1st and 68th minutes respectively. Despite Everton's early chances, Arsenal dominated the game, with the only goals coming from set-pieces.
Gabriel, who is in his 200th Premier League game, added a second goal after a well-executed move. The win follows Arsenal's recent draw in the Champions League against Bayern Munich, during which Bukayo Saka sustained a thigh injury.
