Arsenal and Everton faced off in their Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The Gunners had the chance to move top of the Premier League with a victory over the Toffees. Meanwhile, Everton were looking to end a 21-match winless run in their trips to face the North London outfit.
Arsene Wenger's men secured their fourth win on the spin in the top flight to move to the summit of the table as first-half goals from Olivier Giroud and Laurent Koscielny were enough to hand them the victory, despite a strike from Ross Barkley.

He told reporters: "What is the most important for me is to continue to develop as a team, to feel that we grow in the quality of our game. We have maybe a better discipline. People reproached us many times, 'Okay, Arsenal play football but they are a bit fragile'.
"Before, maybe, when we were not dominating completely the game, we were a bit insecure. On Tuesday night, Bayern had a lot of the ball, but we could handle that.
"We are more mature, for sure. Two years ago we were top of the league for a long time. After, we lost one or two players, and we lost one or two big games, that was the killer for us. I feel today we are better prepared. We know, as well, the competition will be long. We have played nine games, there is a long way to go."
"We are facing an Arsenal team that I watched against Bayern and I don't think it's a coincidence that they won," Martinez told reporters.
"They were very worthy of the win. They are a very complete team at the moment and I think this will be as big a challenge as we will face all season."
