Everton bounce back to secure a 1-1 draw against Liverpool

Undated: The Emirates faithful saw Arsenal give away multiple leads midweek on its way to a disappointing Champions League defeat.
That seems like months away now.
A three-goal explosion in the opening 20 minutes, capped by an absolute stunner from Alexis Sanchez, set the tone as the Gunners cruised to a 3-0 victory over Manchester United, who were top of the table heading into this weekend.
It took no time for Arsenal to go ahead as the visiting defense capitulated early. Just five minutes had gone by when Hector Bellerin burst down the right and while the initial cross was cleared, it came back to Ozil who served up a ball for Alexis Sanchez to tap in after beating Matteo Darmian to the near post.
There were few moments to remember in the second 45, and the home side eased their way to victory, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain hitting the bar just before the final whistle. The three points moves the Gunners to 16 points, level with Sunday’s opponents on points and just below them into third place on goal differential. Manchester United miss the opportunity to regain their top spot, leaving cross-town rivals Manchester City two points clear at the summit.
Meanwhile, Romelu Lukaku scored the equalising goal as Everton bounced back to secure a deserved 1-1 draw against Liverpool in the Premier League Merseyside derbies clash on Sunday.
Danny Ings put Liverpool ahead in the 41st minute before Lukako exposed the tourists’ defensive frailties to level on the stroke of half-time, Sport24 reported.
The draw left Everton one point ahead of their old rivals and in sixth place in the league table. Arsenal will play Manchester United at home and Swansea City against Tottenham Hotspur in the later games on Sunday. (Agencies)
