Arsenal survived a Tottenham Hotspur scare to keep their English Premier League (EPL) title pursuit on track after a pulsating 3-2 win against Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.
Arsenal had gone three goals up through Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz in the first half, but a resurgent Spurs pulled two goals back through Christian Romero in the 64th minute and a penalty by captain Son Heung-min in the 87th minute.
Arsenal defended their lead resiliently amid a late Spurs onslaught to leave the scoreline 3-2 at the end of regulation time.
