Arsenal dropped points for the second successive game after being held to a 1-1 draw by Brentford at the Emirates on Saturday.
Leandro Torssard appeared from the bench to get on to the end of Bukayo Saka’s cross to break the deadlock with his first goal for the club but the visitors who had caused a lot of problems in the game deservingly restored parity as Ivan Toney headed in from underneath the crossbar from Christian Norgaard’s ball.

Mikel Arteta’s side remains six clear of City, who face Aston Villa at home on Sunday before the two teams meet in midweek.
In another game on Saturday, Antonio Conte return to the Spurs dugout wasn’t the one he expected as they went 4-1 down to Leicester City.
Rodrigo Bentancur tapped home from three yards out at the back post after Ivan Perišić’s uncleared corner had landed in his path but two goals in three minutes changed the complexion of the game with Nampalys Mendy smashing home a piledriver into the top corner from just inside the area to bag his first goal for the club before James Maddison to place into the bottom corner to give the hosts the lead.
Iheanacho got in on the act himself in first-half stoppage time, turning Eric Dier inside out before slotting home to compound Spurs’ woes before Harvey Barnes rounded off the win in the final 10 minutes, side-footing home from 20 yards out.
