Everton Questions Arsenal's Title Credential As Ashley Williams Header Condemned Arsenal

If Arsenal, at the end of the season were not crowned Champions. They would surely look at this match as one of the factors that cost them the title as they let the game slipped through their hands.

Ashley Williams delivered a huge blow to Arsenal's title challenge and handed Everton a much-needed 2-1 victory.

Alexis Sanchez broke the deadlock when his free-kick was deflected past Marten Stekelenburg by an Ashley Williams deflection, lifting him above Diego Costa in the race for the Premier League golden boot.

A left-back to right-back combination brought the Toffees level when Leighton Baines picked out Seamus Coleman to nod home on the stroke of half-time.

Mesut Ozil went close to a winner for the Gunners as his shot beat Stekelenburg and whistled inches over the bar, before Williams powered home a header with four minutes to go.

Phil Jagielka was sent off for a second yellow card late on and Alex Iwobi had a shot cleared off the line in a frantic finish, but the hosts held on.

Bournemouth beat Leicester City by 1-0 to dent another blow on the team that destroyed Manchester City last week.
