Arsenal missed the chance to go top of the Premier League as Everton came from behind to secure a first victory since October. The Gunners, who had won their previous three games, were rewarded for an impressive start as Alexis Sanchez's free-kick deflected in off Ashley Williams. Everton equalised just before half-time when Seamus Coleman glanced home Leighton Baines' excellent cross. The Toffees, encouraged by a vocal crowd, dominated thereafter and Williams powered home a late header to complete the turnaround. Everton, meanwhile, are up to seventh, four points behind fifth-placed Tottenham.

| - Arsenal missed the chance to go top of the Premier League as Everton came from behind to secure a first victory since October. The Gunners, who had won their previous three games, were rewarded for an impressive start as Alexis Sanchez's free-kick deflected in off Ashley Williams. Everton equalised just before half-time when Seamus Coleman glanced home Leighton Baines' excellent cross. The Toffees, encouraged by a vocal crowd, dominated thereafter and Williams powered home a late header to complete the turnaround. Home captain Phil Jagielka was sent off in the dying minutes for a second bookable offence and Arsenal had two shots cleared off the line in a frantic finale. But they could not prevent a first league defeat since their opening match of the season, leaving them three points behind leaders Chelsea, who have a game in hand. Everton, meanwhile, are up to seventh, four points behind fifth-placed Tottenham.
