Aston Villa missed the chance to put pressure on Arsenal in the Premier League title race as they slipped to a 1-0 defeat against Everton.
Thierno Barry's second-half goal landed the spoils and broke Villa's 11-game winning run at Villa Park, meaning Arsenal will end the weekend seven points clear at the top.
There was a shade of controversy minutes before the opening goal as James Garner, already on a booking, looked to have cynically fouled Morgan Rogers on the edge of the area, but no foul was awarded.

Should James Garner have been sent off against Aston Villa?
It was a disjointed performance from Villa that lacked quality in the final third although Evann Guessand did hit the crossbar and the otherwise wasteful Morgan Rogers drew a spectacular save out of Jordan Pickford.
Considering the mass absentees for Everton, this was a fantastic result and execution of a gameplan by David Moyes.
