| Aubameyang failed to convert his penalty |
It was a fantastic end-to-end affair at Wembley in the North London derby as Arsenal threw away the chance to move higher up the table thanks to a Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's late penalty miss.
Arsenal took the first half lead through a wonderful cool finish from Aaron Ramsey and as the Gunners looked to be running away with all points, Harry Kane was gifted a penalty to make it 1-1 in the second half with replay showing he was in an offside position prior to that incident. Arsenal had the chance to win it after Aubameyang was brought down by Davinson Sanchez late in the game but the Gabonese forward failed to convert as Hugo Lloris saved. Lucas Torreira received given his marching order in additional time and he will now miss the match against Manchester United next weekend. Tottenham are still third with 61 points while Arsenal moved down to fifth with 57 points.
Tottenham have now drawn their first Premier League game this season after 28 games without a draw.
Arsenal are the only team in the Premier League yet to keep a clean sheet away from home this season.
Aaron Ramsey has had a hand in three of Arsenal's last four Premier League goals against Tottenham with one goal, two assists.
This is the first time ever that Alexandre Lacazette would be involved in goals in four consecutive Premier League matches, he has three goals and one assist. He has also been involved in 36 goals since his Premier League debut, more than any other Arsenal player.
Kane has scored nine goals in nine North London derbies. And he has scored nine of his side's last 12 Premier League goals against the Gunners. Only Robbie Fowler with 10 and Wayne Rooney with 12 have scored more goals in the Premier League against Arsenal.

| Ivan Rakitic scored the lone goal in Barcelona win |
Barcelona completed a La Liga double over Real Madrid thanks to a 1-0 victory at Santiago Bernabeu with the lone goal from Ivan Rakitic. It was the second time in five days the Catalan side would beat Real Madrid and the third time in four games this season. Barcelona (60) now lead Madrid (48) with 12 points and a chance for the Los Blancos to compete for the title is gradually fading away.

| Andreas Pereira scored for United |
Romelu Lukaku scored a brace to secure all three points from 1-0 down for Manchester United. The match ended in a 3-2 victory with Lukaku scoring the winner in dying minutes. Andreas Pereira also got on the score sheet and United have now moved to fourth on the log with 58 points, one point above Arsenal who stand fifth.
Since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer became Manchester United boss, no team has won as many points as the Red Devils, they've won 32 points, five more than any other team.
Since Anderson in 2011, Pereira is the first Brazilian to score and make an assist in a Premier League match for United.
Ward-Prowse has now scored five goals in the Premier League this season, more than he has ever had in previous campaigns.
Riyad Mahrez strikes as Manchester City go top of the table with a 1-0 win away at Bournemouth. City now have 71 points, two points above Liverpool who play in the Merseyside derby today and if the Etihad side are to win the title this season, games like this would prove decisive.
City have an 100% win record over Bournemouth with eight wins in eight attempts.
This was the first time Bournemouth would fail to register a shot on target in the Premier League.
David Silva has now provided 80 assists in the Premier League, level with David Beckham on eighth position of all time assists.
Riyad Mahrez has scored five of his six Premier goals for City away from Etihad.
