FULL-TIME: ARSENAL 4-0 EVERTON
Mikel Arteta's side move five points clear at the top of the Premier League table in style thanks to this thumping win over troubled Everton.
A brace from Gabriel Martinelli and goals by Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard ensures Arsenal an important victory in their quest for a first Premier League title since 2003.
GREAT SAVE!
Ramsdale preserves his clean-sheet, somehow keeping out Davies' shot from point-blank range!
It'll be Arsenal's 12th clean-sheet of the season.
RUBBING SALT INTO THE WOUNDS
'You're going down' the Arsenal fans sing to the travelling supporters. It has been another miserable night on the road for Everton - they have only won once in their last 14 Premier League away games and are yet to score on the road this calendar year.

HUGE SHOCK!
League Two side Grimsby have just beaten Southampton 2-1 to seal their place in the quarter-final of the FA Cup.
WRONG DECISION!
Martinelli opts to shoot rather than play in Saka and it turns out to be wrong decision as his effort is deflected behind for a corner.
YELLOW CARD
Another Everton defender is booked, this time Godfrey cautioned for a foul on Trossard.
