With Arsenal grabbing the lead with Mustafi's goal in the 59th minute, they were quite comofortable and the game was going to be a great one until Xhaka was given a red card and sent off in the 65th minute. As if it was not bad enough, Arsene Wenger got in a row with the fourth official and was sent out of the game. Their "misfortune" was finally sealed when Gray of Burnley equalized in the 90th minute.

Just when Arsenal had given up, Arsenal was awarded a penalty just before the final whistle was blown. It was majestically converted by the famous Alexis Sanchez and the atmosphere was transformed.

Arsenal remain 2nd on the table, 8 points from league leaders Chelsea.
