Arsenal moved level on points with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table with a comfortable home victory over Everton.

Defenders Ezri Konsa and Gabriel Magalhaes scored the goals to lift Arsenal to 21 points, to join City who had earlier lost at Aston Villa.

The opening goal came in the seventh minute after early Arsenal pressure helped them win three corners in a row, with Konsa bundling in his first goal for the club at the back post. It was also the Gunners' first goal from a set-piece this season.

James Garner and Tyrique George both had efforts at goal as Everton chased an equaliser, but they could not find a way past home keeper David Raya.

But the Gunners were the dominant side in the opening 45 minutes, registering 13 shots and winning 10 corners.

They picked up where they left off after the break and it was no surprise that Gabriel Magalhaes joined his centre-back partner on the scoresheet when he headed in Ben White's cross in the 68th minute.

Everton almost pulled one back late in the game when Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall flicked a header just wide.
