A late leveller saw 10-man Fulham claim a 2-2 draw at Arsenal, after the Gunners had fought back from a goal to go ahead.

Andreas Pereira got Fulham off to a flying start, scoring after just 57 seconds.

Bukayo Saka equalised from the penalty spot for the Gunners after Fabio Vieira was caught by Kenny Tete.

Eddie Nketiah grabbed Arsenal's second to take the lead. The Cottagers had then Calvin Bassey sent off four minutes earlier after he fouled Nketiah on the counter-attack as the three points on offer finally looked like staying at the Emirates

That was before Palhinha's first-time finish from a corner in the 87th minute earned Marco Silva's side a point in North London.

William Saliba: 6.5- A class act but games like this prove he is still learning even if his pace can save him 

Jakub Kiwior: 4/10 - Not good enough to play for Arsenal 

Martin Odegaard: 6.5/10 - Silky touches and incredible vision at times

Declan Rice: 6.5/10 - Forced back to retrieve the ball in front of the defence and not as influential as he would have liked
