LONDON (AP) Arsenal was prevented from reclaiming third place in the Premier League on Sunday when Yannick Bolasie's late goal gave Crystal Palace a 1-1 draw at the Emirates Stadium.

A largely forgettable afternoon ended with drama as Bolasie arrowed in a shot which should have been dealt with by goalkeeper Petr Cech, canceling out Alexis Sanchez's opener on the stroke of halftime.

Arsenal drew level on points with Manchester City, which beat Chelsea on Saturday, but Arsene Wenger's side has an inferior goal difference.
