Arsenal rediscover magic touch at corners as Ezri Konsa and Gabriel punish wasteful Everton and move Gunners level at top with Man City

Arsenal moved level with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League following a 2-0 victory against Everton. Ezri Konsa opened the scoring in the seventh minute by prodding home the rebound from a Martin Odegaard corner after Gabriel's header struck the crossbar. Marking his 200th club appearance, Gabriel doubled Arsenal's lead later in the second half with a powerful header from Ben White's cross.

Mikel Arteta's dominant side registered 18 shots against Everton's low block, while rotating the squad by giving Viktor Gyokeres and Mikel Merino their first Premier League starts of the season. Despite a brief injury scare in the 56th minute, Gabriel remained on the pitch to seal the win, revitalizing Arsenal's trademark set-piece threat after failing to score from corners earlier in the campaign.
