During the XXXIII round of the Premier League matches played on Sunday at the central "Emirates" stadium in London, "Arsenal" and "Liverpool" teams parted ways with a 1-1 draw.
During the main match time, players of both teams had several great opportunities to score, but both Pepe Reina and Wojciech Szczesny were reliable goalkeepers.
The meeting reached its climax in the added eight minutes of the second half - Jay Spearing tripped home captain Cesc Fabregas in the penalty area, and the referee immediately awarded a penalty kick, which was successfully converted by the Dutch national team striker Robin van Persie.
Shortly after, "Liverpool" players had a chance to equalize with a penalty kick from outside the penalty area, but Luis Suarez's shot hit the crossbar.
But that was not the end - Lucas Leiva rushed towards the loose ball, and he was pushed from behind by Emmanuel Eboue. The action took place in the penalty area, so the match referee Andre Marriner awarded yet another penalty kick.
In the twelfth minute of added time standing at the mark, Dirk Kuyt defeated the goalkeeper from Poland and immediately heard the final whistle of the referee - 1-1.
It is worth mentioning that in this duel, "Reds" defender Jamie Carragher possibly suffered a serious head injury after colliding with his teammate John Flanagan.
The "Gunners" are currently in second place in the standings, six points behind the leading "Man Utd" players.
"Liverpool" is in sixth place.
