Arsenal drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace at home, which means Liverpool is now just one point away from winning the Premier League title.
Arsenal started well, with Jakub Kiwior scoring a great header in the first 3 minutes. But Crystal Palace quickly equalized when Eberechi Eze scored a volley from a corner.
Leandro Trossard gave Arsenal the lead again before halftime by scoring in the box. But in the final minutes, Jean-Philippe Mateta took advantage of a mistake by Arsenal’s defense and scored to make it 2-2.
Arsenal are still unbeaten in their last 8 league matches, but five of them were draws. This has cost them points, and now they are 12 points behind the leaders. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, are 12th in the table but closer to the European spots.

Had Palace won, Liverpool would have won the Premier League without playing. But now, Liverpool can win the title if they don’t lose to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, was unhappy with the result. He said, “We didn’t play well enough to control the game. It’s part of football, and we lost two points. Palace was very organized, and they deserved credit.”
Palace's coach, Oliver Glasner, was proud of his team. He said, “The players were amazing today. We scored great goals, and I watched Arsenal play many times, but I can’t remember any team getting as many clear chances as we did.”
Next, Arsenal will play Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-final at home. They will also play Bournemouth on May 3 at Emirates Stadium in their next Premier League match.
