A first-half Viktor Gyokeres penalty was all that prevented Everton from getting something to show from a gritty display against Premier League leaders Arsenal in the final match of 2025 at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
The crucial moment of a closely-fought encounter came on 27 minutes when Jake O’Brien was penalised for handling Declan Rice’s corner, allowing Gyokeres to net the winner from the spot.
Other than that, it was an even affair, Arsenal twice hitting the post in the second half but the Toffees putting plenty of pressure on the Gunners without truly testing the meanest defence in England.
Boss David Moyes could still take positives from another display which offered encouragement moving forward, especially with a host of key players missing for his side.

I'm sorry but Everton did nothing vs Arsenal
Referee too brave not giving a Penalty for foul on Barry
Silly handball. How can pro footballer do that? 😂
Arsenal needs to be more aggressive. Too careful. They have to be murderous in their approach to games. The goalkeeper sees more of the ball than Gyokeres. That's wrong; too many back passes. Always playing in the wrong direction. Improvement is required immediately.
It's"mama" trossard😅
trossard's work rate is amazing..
What a great performance from Everton's Goalpost! Shoud be the MOTM
1:49 Man used half the wax jar just to step outside.

i hope Viktor is not injured from that tackle defense from James Tarkowski

Gyoceres usually touch more his hair than the ball😜

Gyokeres won the game for Arsenal. Start that man every game
Beautiful new stadium 🎉
If it’s not a penalty it’s a goal by calafori but I wanted the goal from big Cala I love set-piece goals 😂😂
Everton's goal post did well in defending Thoes goals.. that's what a better stadiums gives 😀
Everton😂😂😂😂😂
Idiotic hand ball. Players should be fined for outright stupidity
We are really not conceding many goals but we aren't scoring many either. Taking games to the edge will cost us we need to bury our chances
'Oh what are Arsenal moaning about now?' Nice full stretch Volleyball double hand block in the penalty area 🤣
Arsenal had their chances. Gyokeres had chances created for him. Arsenal did well
11 vs 12, not surprised who won.
