Arsenal's winning streak ends, Chelsea up to second, Man United draw at Spurs

MANCHESTER, England :Arsenal's red-hot winning run came to a dramatic end on Saturday as Brian Brobbey's acrobatic stoppage-time equaliser earned Sunderland a 2-2 draw that gave Premier League title chasers Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool some relief.

Mikel Arteta's side have 26 points and a six-point lead over London rivals Chelsea before third-placed Manchester City (19)host champions Liverpool (18) in sixth on Sunday.

Chelsea climbed to second in the table with a 3-0 thrashing of bottom team Wolverhampton Wanderers that extended the visitors' miserable losing streak.

Manchester United salvaged a point in a 2-2 draw at Tottenham Hotspur thanks to Matthijs de Ligt's header in injury time, while Everton beat Fulham 2-0 and West Ham United defeated Burnley 3-2 in a battle between struggling teams.

At the Stadium of Light, Dan Ballard put high-flying Sunderland in front after 36 minutes, the first time Arsenal's defence had been breached in nine matches.

But Arsenal looked poised for an 11th straight win after Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard, with an unstoppable shot past Robin Roefs, overturned the home side's lead. 

Brobbey, however, struck in the 94th minute with great athleticism in volleying past David Raya from close range to deny the leaders three points and send the crowd into raptures.

Ballard said the draw, which leaves Sunderland in a lofty fourth spot on 19 points, felt like a win.

"I'd say so, it's a good morale boost to show we can go against a really top team - probably one of the best in Europe at the minute - and delighted with that," he told the BBC.

"But it is just one point and we've got a lot of work to do to achieve our goal of staying up this year."
