On Sunday, two matches of the 17th round were played in the English Premier League. The most anticipated match of the round took place at the "Anfield" stadium and spectators witnessed a tough battle. "Liverpool" extended their equaliser against London's "Arsenal" in stoppage time in front of their fans. The first half belonged entirely to Brendan Rodgers' players, who created dangerous chances one after another and did not allow the visitors to push towards their goal. In the 45th minute, the "Anfield" stadium was in euphoria as Philippe Coutinho scored a very technical goal. However, their celebration was short-lived as Arsenal equalized just moments later, with Mathieu Debuchy scoring with his head. At the beginning of the second half, Arsenal players started playing more actively and seized the opportunity in the 64th minute to take the lead. This time the scorer was forward Olivier Giroud. After conceding another goal, the "Reds" started pressing their opponents and bombarded the "Gunners" goal. They were unable to equalize during the regular time, so the referee added an extra 9 minutes of stoppage time. There were no shortage of surprises. In the 92nd minute of added time, Fabio Borini, who had already received two yellow cards, was sent off, but this did not stop the Liverpool team from extending the draw. In the 97th minute, Martin Skrtel rose higher than anyone else after Adam Lallana's corner kick and extended the dramatic equalizer. The Arsenal team remains in a disappointing position. B. Rodgers' team continues to struggle to climb above the 10th place. The next match took place at St. James' Park stadium, where Newcastle United and Sunderland faced off. At the end of the match, the visitors managed to secure a narrow victory. Both teams attacked almost equally, but only one managed to score. In the 90th minute, Adam Johnson received a pass from Willo Buckley and became the only goal scorer. After the victory, Sunderland moved up to the 14th position, while the Magpies remain in 9th place. Results: Liverpool 2 - 2 Arsenal 45' [1 - 0] P. Coutinho 45' [1 - 1] M. Debuchy 64' [1 - 2] O.
