Arsenal strengthened their grip on the Premier League title race with a late 2-0 win over Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, thanks to goals from Viktor Gyökeres (89′) and 16-year-old Max Dowman (90+7′), who became the youngest player to score in Premier League history.
The match was cagey for much of the first half. Everton threatened early, with Riccardo Calafiori forcing a crucial block and Dwight McNeil rattling the woodwork. Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya made a key stop from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to keep the Gunners in contention.
Controversy struck midway through the first half when Kai Havertz went down in the box under a challenge from Michael Keane. Referee Andy Madley waved play on, and VAR backed the decision, ruling minimal contact.
Pundits including Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Redknapp labelled it a “clear penalty.”
Arsenal’s attacking changes in the second half, bringing on Gyökeres and Gabriel Martinelli, finally paid off.
Piero Hincapié’s precise cross in the 89th minute allowed Gyökeres to open the scoring, but the headlines belonged to Max Dowman.
