Arsenal end the Premier League campaign with an emphatic 5-1 win over Everton at the Emirates Stadium. Despite hammering the Toffees, the Gunners have to settle for a place in the Europa League as Tottenham's win over Norwich City has allowed them to finish in the top four ahead of their North London rivals. Mikel Arteta can still be proud of his team's performance as Gabriel Martinelli put his team ahead from the penalty spot and Eddie Nketiah added a second. The only blemish of the day came before half-time when Donny van de Beek got a goal back for the visitors. However, Arsenal responded with a dominant second-half outing as further strikes from Cedric Soares, Gabriel Magalhaes and Martin Odegaard wrapped up the three points.

Calvert-Lewin cuts in from the left flank and angles a cross to the back post. Price is there, but he can only slice his effort behind for a goal-kick.
