With just over 20 minutes to go in the match at the Emirates Stadium, Bukayo Saka handed Arsenal a lifeline from the penalty spot against Fulham.
The Cottagers had gone ahead in the opening minute and had been more than holding their own against the Gunners.
That was until Fabio Vieira skinned Kenny Tete down the left side and was subsequently upended by Fulham defender.
Though Saka had to wait for a VAR check to be completed and then have the referee move the ball right onto the penalty spot, he still slammed it into the bottom corner with aplomb.
GOAL! Saka slots home the penalty.
Arsenal 1-1 Fulham
Come on you Gunners!
