London: Alexis Sanchez's late goal rescued a point for 10-man Arsenal in a 2-2 draw with Tottenham on Saturday after Francis Coquelin's sending-off sparked a turnaround in a thrilling Premier League game between the title-chasing north London rivals.
Coquelin was shown a second yellow card in the 55th minute when Arsenal were 1-0 ahead thanks to Aaron Ramsey's first-half goal. Within seven minutes, Spurs have gone ahead on goals by Toby Alderweireld and Harry Kane at White Hart Lane.
However, Sanchez scored in the 76th minute from a shot that Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris arguably should have saved to seal a draw that will be celebrated by league-leader Leicester.
Ahead of their game at Watford later on Saturday, Leicester are two points ahead of second-place Tottenham and five clear of third-place Arsenal.
