LONDON: Premier League leader Arsenal was held to a 1-1 draw by 10-man Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea dominated the opening half an hour as Arsenal struggled to pose the home side problems and the Blues created a number of chances.
The game changed on 38 minutes when Moises Caicedo saw a straight red for a tackle on Mikel Merino and the visitors enjoyed more of the ball in the second period.
But the Blues continued to pose a threat and were more than equal to Arsenal even with a man less, as they went in search of all three points.
