Everton v Arsenal LIVE: Premier League latest score and goal updates

49 mins: There’s a lengthy delay before Ndiaye can take, but he’s cool as you like, slotting it into the bottom right corner with Raya sent the wrong way.

48 mins: Darren England made no hesitation in pointing to the spot. There’s a VAR check for offside in the build-up, but the call stands.

Jorginho goes into the book for complaining about it.

Ndiaye stands ready to take.

46 mins: What a start! Early mix-up by Arsenal as Beto looks to cause some chaos, then Lewis-Skelly gets in a tussle with Harrison and brings him down on the edge of the area, falling down on the Everton player!

46 mins: Ready for the second half, and bad news for Everton: Nwaneri and Sterling have come off and the big guns are on: Saka and Martinelli.

No changes for the hosts.

Not, you’d have to say, the most scintillating half of football you’ve ever seen.

A communication mix-up by Everton led to Sterling stealing the ball from Gueye’s knock-down and teeing up a lovely composed finish by Trossard, in the only real moment of quality in that entire half.

Everton have occasionally threatened on the counter but have wasted their chances and need to come out firing after the restart.

45+6 mins: Ndiaye curls in from the edge of the box but it’s over the bar!

Arsenal have looked pretty comfortable in the closing stages of this half, and they lead at the break.

45+4 mins: Trossard wants another! He initially outsprints Tarkowski but the defender makes a sliding challenge to deny him; Pickford is right there but collides with Trossard making the clearance. Rice attempts to score the rebound but Tarkowski again is there with a brilliant block.

The Belgina international is down again.

45 mins: Good from Nwaneri, who ducks and darts down the right – but under pressure from Patterson he hoofs an angled cross over the bar.

Six minutes added on after all those stoppages.

43 mins: We’ll have at least four minutes added on to this half for that delay. Merino has had his head slathered in copious amounts of vaseline but returns to the pitch.

Lots of booing from the stands as Trossard goes down next, but he’s back up quickly.
