Arsenal have kept their Premier League title hopes alive after coming back from 3 goals down to draw 3-all with AFC Bournemouth in a thrilling action-packed match at Dean Court Stadium.

The hosts started the match with full force on Tuesday and took a surprising 2-nil lead by the end of the first half, thanks to a goal from Charlie Daniels and a penalty from Callum Wilson.

But, Bournemouth didn’t stop there, they continued their amazing performance after the break and found their third when Ryan Fraser raced into the box, and slotted the ball into the back of the net through the legs of Petr Check in the 58th minute.

The Gunners, however, didn’t give up and fought back through strikes by Alexis Sanchez and Lucas Perez.

Things were then made easier for the North Londoners as the Cherries were reduced to 10 men when Simon Francis was sent off with a Red Card.

And, Olivier Girou completed the outstanding comeback by beating the keeper with a wonderful downward header in injury time to salvage a draw.
