Arsenal 2 Manchester United 2

United are still three points ahead but Arsenal have five games left compared to four for their rivals and have a single-goal advantage but they made things mighty difficult for themselves in this titanic encounter.

Ruud van Nistelrooy put United ahead in 24 minutes with a classic solo strike but Ashley Cole's shot deflected off Thierry Henry and beyond Fabian Barthez for a scrappy equaliser six minutes after half time.
