Zinchenko 'magic'
On a night where the atmosphere was red hot inside the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal were targeting a dish best served cold. For a while it appeared that the revenge over Everton that they craved would not be on offer as a turgid 40 minutes passed by without any note. Just as they did at Goodison Park, the Toffees defended deep in numbers and as Arsenal sought a recipe for success their passing was overcooked and under-seasoned. Then came the moment of "magic".
Oleksandr Zinchenko - who was as poor as anyone in the Goodison defeat - took the initiative and dribbled from his left-back slot over to the right wing area, beating three Everton defenders on the way. Upon arriving in the opposite half of the pitch, the Ukrainian lent the ball to Gabriel Martinelli and Ben White before positioning himself perfectly to spot the gap in the rigid Everton backline that Bukayo Saka had found on the edge of the box and supplying the winger with an inch perfect pass to take advantage of it.
