The draw leaves Mikel Arteta’s side firmly in control of the race for the crown and within touching distance of their first Premier League title in 22 years. Arsenal had earlier defeated Burnley 1-0 thanks to Kai Havertz’s winner, piling pressure on Pep Guardiola’s men before kickoff.
Bournemouth stunned City when Eli Junior Kroupi fired the hosts ahead, leaving Arsenal fans dreaming of an imminent title celebration. Although City eventually found an equaliser, the dropped points could prove decisive in the championship battle.
With one round of matches left, Arsenal now need only avoid defeat in their final game to seal the title and end their long wait for Premier League glory.
