Leaders Arsenal blew a 2-0 lead in dramatic fashion to draw at rock-bottom Wolves and missed the chance to go seven points clear at the top of the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Gunners defender Riccardo Calafiori turned in debutant Tom Edozie’s shot in the fourth minute of added time for a late leveller after goalkeeper David Raya and centre-back Gabriel made a mess of clearing a high ball into the box.<\/p>\n

Hugo Bueno had started Wolves’ comeback with a stunning curling effort after Bukayo Saka – with his first goal in 15 games – and Piero Hincapie gave Arsenal what seemed a commanding lead.<\/p>\n

The Gunners had control at Molineux as Bukayo Saka celebrated his new contract with the fifth-minute opener.<\/p>\n

The England forward nodded in Declan Rice’s cross – just a day after signing a fresh five-year deal at the Emirates – before Hincapie added a 56th-minute second with a smart finish from a Gabriel pass for his first goal for the club.<\/p>\n

Yet after Saka – who ended a 15-game goal drought in all competitions – went off following treatment, Arsenal struggled under pressure as Hugo Bueno pulled a goal back with a stunning curler in the 61st minute.<\/p>\n

Wolves pushed at the end and when Gabriel got in the way as Raya tried to clear a cross, 19-year-old Edozie – on for his senior debut as a substitute – slammed in a shot that struck Calafiori and went in off the post.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
