This Monday, ending the 15th round of the English Championship, Everton defeated Arsenal by 2-1, at home, and ended a fast of eight games without winning.
After a start without great emotions, the game heated up in the final stretch of the first stage. With 44 minutes, Richarlison reached the net, but the goal was disallowed for offside. And the response from visitors was immediate. In the next move, Odegaard received a great cross from the left and hit with category to inaugurate the marker.
In the second half, Everton went up to seek the tie, which came out in the 35th minute. After Gray hit the crossbar, the ball fell to Richarlsion, who accurately tested to equalize.
From then on, the clash was open. At 40, Nketiah received a cross from Saka and tested at the foot of the crossbar. And the lost goal ended up costing dear. That’s because, at 47, Gray made a beautiful individual play and amended a beautiful shot at the angle to score a great goal and turn the score around.
With the result, Everton returned to winning ways after eight games and jumped to 12th place in the championship, with 18 points. Arsenal are in seventh, with 23, two less than Tottenham, the first team in the G5.
