Arsenal beat Everton 2-1, and the scoreline flatters the visitors. Everton led early through Idrissa Gueye in the 40th minute, their one meaningful trip forward all afternoon. Tomiyasu levelled it three minutes later, and Havertz settled it in the 89th, deep into a half Arsenal had spent entirely in Everton’s box. The numbers tell the rest. Arsenal took 26 shots to Everton’s 5 and built three expected goals to barely half of one. A side this dominant rarely leaves it so late. Everton defended for their lives and nearly stole a point they had no business contesting. Arsenal got there, eventually, and move on with the three points.
