Yerry Mina 7, Dominic Calvert-Lewin 7; Willian 6, Mohamed Elneny 5: Everton v Arsenal player ratings

Another defeat for Gunners as pressure mounts on Mikel Arteta

James Capps

Mikel Arteta’s woes deepened as Arsenal were beaten 2-1 by Everton to go seven games without a win in the Premier League as he marked a year in charge of the London club on Saturday.

While Arsenal dropped to 15th, Everton moved up to second after a third win in eight days.

Everton scored from only one shot on target as Rob Holding’s own goal opener was followed — after Nicolas Pepe’s equalising penalty — by Yerry Mina’s header on the stroke of halftime.

Arsenal were not helped by the absence of top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with a tight calf but the visitors conceded possession from the off and lacked any intensity or desire to break up their opponents’ play.

Islamophobia definition

A widely accepted definition was made by the All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims in 2019: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.” It further defines it as “inciting hatred or violence against Muslims”.
