EPL: Liverpool, Arsenal in Anfield thriller, as Leicester stun Spurs

Substitute Joe Allen scored a 90th-minute equaliser to earn Liverpool a point against leaders Arsenal victory in a pulsating match at Anfield.

Roberto Firmino gave the Reds the lead after Petr Cech parried Emre Can’s shot into his path before Aaron Ramsey levelled with a cool finish....

Firmino’s 25-yard curler restored Liverpool’s lead but Giroud equalised again, touching in from a corner.

Giroud’s shot on the turn gave Arsenal the lead before Allen volleyed in.

And Robert Huth scored a late winner as Leicester beat Premier League top-four rivals Tottenham.

The Foxes, who are now level on points with leaders Arsenal, looked like they were heading for a fourth league game without a goal until unmarked Huth headed home Christian Fuchs’ corner.

Harry Kane had Spurs’ best chance when his effort was touched onto the bar by keeper Kasper Schmeichel, reports the BBC.

Foxes striker Jamie Vardy returned from groin surgery but had a quiet game.

At Stamford Bridge, James McClean’s late equaliser earned West Brom a share of the points as they refused to accept defeat at Chelsea.

The Blues went ahead when Cesar Azpilicueta turned in fellow full-back Branislav Ivanovic’s low cross.

Craig Gardner’s skimming low shot levelled, but it seemed Chelsea had done enough when Gareth McAuley prodded Willian’s low cross into his own net.

But when the home defence failed to clear McClean made them pay with a pinpoint low shot into the corner.

The Republic of Ireland international’s leveller was the final twist in a often ill-tempered game with Chelsea striker Diego Costa at the centre of several flashpoints, including a confrontation with several West Brom players after the final whistle.
