Patrick Vieira nearly enjoyed a dream return to Arsenal, but Alexandre Lacazette’s 96th minute equaliser salvaged a 2-2 draw for the Gunners against Crystal Palace on Monday. 

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s seventh-minute strike gave the hosts the perfect start. But a five-game unbeaten that had lifted the mood around the Emirates looked set to be punctured as Christian Benteke and Odsonne Edouard struck in the second-half to give the Eagles a deserved lead. Vieira’s men failed to hold out, though, as with seconds to spare Lacazette scrambled home from a corner.
