Arsenal vs. Everton Review

A tense game at the Emirates as Arsenal took on Everton. Their previous encounter finished 1-1 at Goodison Park with Theo Walcott and Fellani scoring. Both team were looking enviously at the Champions League spot. Arsenal currently sit 3rd with having played 2 more games than rivals Chelsea and 1 more game the north-London rivals Tottenham. With this draw Arsenal continue their 12 game unbeaten run. Everton sit 6th, 6 points ahead of Meyerside-rivals Liverpool. Everton manager, David Moyes, stated in the pre-match press conference that Everton need to win to qualify for the Champions League. The game finished in a bore 0-0 draw. The best chance fell to Arsenal's Olivier Giroud when a curling cross from Ramsey found the feet of the sliding Giroud. He missed the goal. Everton also had their fair share of chances through Anichibe. Giroud was the main attacking force for Arsenal. He had a lot of chances but failed to convert any of them. This point still keeps Arsenal in third and Everton in 6th. Nobody deserved to win because it didn't seem like any of them wanted the 3 points or the Champions League spot.

MAN OF THE MATCH:
He was man of the match for me. He played very well and was all over the pitch. The welsh wizard gave some key passes and was central part of the team. He ran with endless energy and also defended for his team. Another player challenging for his position was Fellani. He was also very hard-working but Ramsey played better overall. I think we might have the next Ryan Giggs here. His future is at Arsenal.
