Phil Jagielka: 'We deserved draw against Arsenal'

Jagielka: 'We deserved draw'

Phil Jagielka has claimed that Everton were "more than value" for their draw in today's match against Arsenal.

The Toffees went 1-0 behind when Mesut Ozil struck in the 80th minute, but Gerard Deulofeu equalised four minutes later for the visitors.

"I thought we played well and were more than value for the draw in the end," Jagielka told BBC Sport.

"I think you are looking at two good footballing teams and when one has it it is quite difficult to get it back.

"Hope and realism are two different things. We'd love to win the league but at the moment we are just looking to keep in touch with the top four."

Everton are fifth in the Premier League table.
