London Derby: Arsenal Comes From Behind to Snatch Draw Against Chelsea

Arsenal overturned a two-goal deficit in the space of seven minutes courtesy of goals from Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard to share the spoils with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge tonight.

Although the game began with equal efforts from both sides, it was Chelsea who stole the lead after William Saliba handled Mykhailo Mudryk’s header in the box, giving Cole Palmer the chance to covert from the spot.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side pumped by the early lead intensified their effort, with Palmer pulling strings that stretched the Gunners’ midfield and backline, although it wasn’t until the second half before the second goal was recorded.

It took the home team three minutes into the second half to double their lead via Mudryk who looped the ball over David Raya for his third goal in four starts for club and country.

However, twenty-nine minutes later, Arsenal pulled one back through Declan Rice who capitalized on Robert Sánchez’s mistake to fire in a rocket that boosted his side’s hope.

And seven minutes later, the away team levelled the scores when substitute Trossard converted Bukayo Saka’s cross to maintain Arsenals’ unbeaten start to the PL season. While Chelsea gave up their three-game winning streak.
