83' - Close! Alexis Sanchez almost makes it 4-1 to Arsenal but his header from Hector Bellerin's cross lands in the side netting.

84' - Off the bar! Granit Xhaka rattles the crossbar with a thunderous drive from distance. Surely there are one or two more goals in this game for the visitors.

GOAL! Everton 1-4 Arsenal (Ramsey)

90' - Aaron Ramsey tucks the ball home after Jack Wilshere's pass. That was a little too easy for the visitors.

90+2' - Gylfi Sigurdsson bends a free-kick over the crossbar from 20 yards.

We're two minutes into the five additional minutes signalled at the end of the 90.

GOAL! Everton 2-4 Arsenal (Niasse)

90+4' - Well, that wasn't pretty. Oumar Niasse capitalises on a mix-up at the back between Nacho Monreal and Petr Cech to roll the ball into an empty net. Very, very sloppy from Arsenal.

GOAL! Everton 2-5 Arsenal (Sanchez)

90+5' - Finally he gets his goal. Alexis Sanchez dances around the Everton defence before slapping a shot across Jordan Pickford and into the far corner.

Full-time - Everton 2-5 Arsenal

The final whistle goes and that must be music to the ears of Ronald Koeman. Arsenal move up to fifth and Everton drop into the bottom three on goal difference.
