Arsenal dropped points in the 94th minute after a cruel own goal against Wolves.

In the 90+4th minute at Molineux, Arsenal's hopes of securing all three points vanished when the ball deflected off Riccardo Calafiori and went straight into his own net. The bitter 2-2 draw against Wolves not only robbed them of a victory but also raised serious questions about the Gunners' character in the crucial final stages of the Premier League.

A tactical turning point and the brilliance of Bukayo Saka.

Manager Mikel Arteta surprised everyone by deploying Bukayo Saka in the number 10 role instead of his usual right wing position. This decision immediately paid off in the 5th minute. From a precise cross by Declan Rice, Saka headed the ball powerfully into the net to open the scoring, ending a 15-match goalless streak.

The early goal allowed Arsenal to completely dominate the game. Throughout the first half, the visitors controlled possession for 68%, leaving Wolves completely frustrated and unable to register a single shot on target against David Raya's goal.

Dramatic VAR moments and a thrilling chase for the lead.

In the second half, Arsenal capitalized on their advantage by doubling their lead in the 56th minute. Piero Hincapie finished decisively, beating Jose Sa after a pass from Gabriel that tore through the defense. Although the linesman initially raised the flag for offside, VAR intervened and confirmed the Ecuadorian defender's first goal for Arsenal.

However, Wolves' hopes were rekindled in the 61st minute thanks to a spectacular goal from Hugo Bueno. The player executed a skillful turn before unleashing a powerful left-footed curling shot into the top corner, reducing the deficit to 1-2. This was also Bueno's first goal in the Premier League.

Personnel losses and last-minute mistakes

Arsenal faced difficulties when Bukayo Saka had to leave the field due to injury in the 73rd minute. The loss of their playmaker disrupted the Gunners' cohesion, and Wolves took advantage of the situation to launch a full-scale attack in injury time.

Tragedy struck in the 94th minute when goalkeeper David Raya mishandled a cross from the left wing. Young talent Tom Edozie rushed in to shoot, the ball deflected off substitute defender Riccardo Calafiori and into the net, securing a 2-2 draw.

Goal statistics

This draw is a major blow to Arsenal's title ambitions. Although they still hold the top spot, the gap between them and Manchester City is likely to narrow significantly after this round of matches.
