Last Saturday evening, yet another match of the English Premier League's 22nd round took place.

London's Arsenal team had a two-goal lead at home against Aston Villa, but they could not hold it and ended up drawing 2:2.

The hosts took the lead in the 35th minute with a goal from Gabriel Martinelli.

At the beginning of the second half, Arsenal doubled their advantage with a goal from Kai Havertz.

In the 60th minute, the visitors' hopes were revived by Youri Tielemans.

The score was equalized in the 68th minute by Ollie Watkins.

Arsenal pressured the opponents' goal towards the end of the match, and the ball even ended up in Aston Villa's net once, but that was ruled out after a handball by K. Havertz following a VAR review.
