The Premier League title race takes another twist as Arsenal’s ambition for the top was dealt a blow by Everton in a frustrating 0-0 draw for the Gunners on Saturday at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal dominated play, having 76% of possession in the game and attempting 13 shots. But the Toffees, Liverpool’s Merseyside rivals, held firm at the back to keep Mikel Arteta’s side at bay throughout the encounter.
While the result extends Arsenal’s run of keeping a cleansheet at home to four matches, the North London outfit has now played successive draws in the league – Fulham held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw last weekend.
This means Arsenal remain six points behind Liverpool that played out a pulsating 2-2 draw with Fulham on Saturday, fighting back from a goal and man down to earn a point at Anfield.
