In a Premier League drama, Chelsea and Arsenal battled it out in a 1-1 draw, with neither side willing to back down.
The first half finished 0-0 and it took until the 60th minute before Gabriel Martinelli netted, with an assist by Martin Ødegaard, to give Arsenal the lead.
In the 70th minute, Pedro Neto equalised for Chelsea, with an assist by Enzo Fernández.
The game was the fourth in a row without a win for Arsenal.
For the home team, the results mean third place in the table. Arsenal are fourth in the league.
‘The disappointment of not getting three points is bigger [than being satisfied], and it will probably be bigger after watching it back,’ Mikel Arteta said.
‘I think we dominated them; we were the better team in many phases and situations in the game and, after going ahead, very disappointed in the way we conceded,’ he added.
Chelsea play Leicester City on 23 November, Aston Villa on 1 December and Southampton (away) on 4 December. Arsenal’s next opponents are Nottingham Forest on 23 November, West Ham United on 30 November and Manchester United (home) on 4 December.
