Comments:

League position: 12th Everton avoided completing a run of nine games in the Premier League without a win for the first time since October 1994. The Toffees had now won ten points from losing positions so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. This was the first time they had won with a 90th minute goal after trailing at half-time in a game in the Premier League since 25 April 2010 against Fulham. Current Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta netted the winner. [c/o EFC Statto] Richarlison scored after 44 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision. Richarlison scored after 58 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 7th Arsenal had now lost five away games so far in this Premier League season; the most in the division along with Aston Villa, Norwich City and Watford. Martin Odegaard became the first player to score in consecutive games in the Premier League for the Gunners and lose both games since Robin van Persie in January 2012 against Swansea City and Manchester United. [c/o Harvey Downes] All of their last nine goals in the Premier League had now been scored by players aged 23 or under.
