Arsenal saw a two-goal lead slip away in a dramatic 2‑2 draw at Molineux Stadium after dominating much of the match.
Bukayo Saka opened the scoring early, ending a personal 15‑game goal drought, and Piero Hincapié doubled Arsenal’s lead.
But Wolves fought back through a superb Hugo Bueno strike and a late own goal resulting from a mix‑up in the Arsenal defence to level the score.
The result means Arsenal drop crucial points in the title race and hand Manchester City a possible lifeline for the Premier League lead.
The night also brought a worry for Arsenal fans as Saka had to be substituted due to a hip injury after his early goal, adding to fitness concerns during this pivotal part of the season.
