Tottenham 1-1 Arsenal: 3 key takeaways from the North London derby | Premier League 2018-19

#1 Two crucial points dropped by both the sides

Emery would be disappointed with the result

Based on the current circumstances, Arsenal fans would have been happy with an away point, but certainly not after the match.

Arsenal was clinical in the first half and defended well once they got the lead through Ramsey. Emery set his side to defend and hit Spurs on the counter and they certainly executed their plans brilliantly in the opening 45 minutes.

The onus was on Spurs in the second half and they did increase the tempo but could not break the Arsenal rearguard until a foul by Mustafi saw Spurs awarded a penalty which Harry Kane beautifully dispatched to make it 1-1.

When the match was heading towards a draw, Arsenal got a penalty at the other end. However, Aubameyang's weak attempt was saved by Lloris to deny Spurs a third defeat in a row.

It was a game which either side needed to win for their respective aspirations and Arsenal, in particular, would feel disappointed given the chance they got late in the second half to collect all three points.
