The full picture

Arsenal won 2-0 against Everton at home, making it 7 wins from 8 Premier League games this season, according to Arseblog. The win was relatively comfortable, with Ezri Konsa scoring the first goal after a corner from Martin Odegaard. Gabriel doubled the lead in the second half with a header from a cross by Ben White. The team put pressure on Everton from the start, with several chances to score.

Mikel Arteta made changes to the team from the midweek game against Bayern Munich, with Ben White, Myles Lewis-Skelly, and Mikel Merino starting. The team had several scoring opportunities, including chances for Eberechi Eze, Noni Madueke, and Odegaard. Everton had limited chances, with Thierno Barry having a notable opportunity that was saved by David Raya.

After the game, Mikel Arteta praised his team's performance and mentality, saying they were proud to have overcome a tough schedule and injuries. He also praised Konsa's strong start to his Arsenal career, saying he was 'unbelievable' and that the team's central defenders had scored the goals. Arseblog noted that the team showed some signs of being 'shot-shy' but seemed to be instructed to take more shots, with Merino and Odegaard taking five shots each.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Arsenal made it 7 wins from 8 so far in the Premier League this season with a relatively comfortable 2-0 win over Everton at home yesterday. Mikel Arteta made some changes from the midweek team, with Ben White, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Mikel Merino, Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres all handed starts. And as a team that has been a bit slow to get going in games so far, an early goal was just the tonic after all the effort against Bayern Munich on Wednesday. We put pressure on Everton from the off, with a couple of corners from the Declan Rice side, but another – delivered by Martin Odegaard – drew dividends.
