Arsenal had another perfect night in the Premier League as title rivals Manchester City were held to a dramatic 1-1 draw by Chelsea. The result worked brilliantly in favour of the Gunners, who now sit six points clear at the top of the table after 20 games. With every passing week, the pressure continues to grow on the chasing pack as Arsenal maintain their impressive consistency.
Manchester City appeared on course to secure all three points before Chelsea struck with a late equaliser to stun the Etihad crowd. The Blues showed resilience and character, scoring in the final moments to snatch a vital point and deny Pep Guardiola’s side a crucial victory. It was a frustrating night for City, who once again failed to capitalise on Arsenal dropping points.
For Arsenal, however, this was another reminder that momentum is firmly on their side. Mikel Arteta’s men have been relentless this season, combining solid defensive performances with cutting-edge attacking football.
They have found ways to win matches, even when not at their best, which is often the hallmark of champions.
