BREAKING NEWS: Arsenal drop points at Everton as Wolves boost survival hopes

 

The Gunners went ahead in the 34th minute with the game’s first shot on target, as Raheem Sterling set up Leandro Trossard, who fired a low strike into the bottom right corner.

Everton equalised shortly after the break, when Myles Lewis-Skelly fouled Jack Harrison in the box and Iliman Ndiaye converted the resulting penalty — his ninth goal of the season in all competitions for David Moyes’ side.
