Arteta documents technical directors leaving the technical area on video

Arsenal beat Everton 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium to draw level on points with Premier League leaders Manchester City. The goals for the win came from centre-back Ezri Konsa and Gabriel. Konsa scored from close range after 7 minutes, heading in Martin Odegaard's corner to give his team their first set-piece goal of the season.

In the second half, Mikel Arteta received his second caution of the season after being shown a yellow card by referee Tony Harrington. Arteta said that the next yellow card would earn him a one-match technical area ban. The manager half-jokingly said that sensors should be placed on the touchline.

Arteta argued that some rival managers in the Premier League have repeatedly broken the rule without being punished. Citing one manager who went onto the touchline 36 times in 10 minutes without receiving a yellow card, Arteta said he had recorded the footage. The manager said he wanted to use these recordings if anyone said something to him.

Gabriel also stood out at a crucial moment. After treatment following a fall that raised fears of injury, the Brazilian centre-back made it 2-0 with a header in the 68th minute, securing the win. Arteta said Gabriel's determination reflected the character of the team. In Arteta's view, the team's mentality is the sum of the mentalities of the individuals on the pitch.
