Twitter reacts as Arsenal and Tottenham draw 1-1 in the North London Derby

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur shared the spoils in a spirited North London Derby, with the game ending 1-1. The result leaves Arsenal in 3^rd place, level on points with Manchester City, while Tottenham remain in 5^th place in the Premier League table.

Kevin Wimmer opened the scoring, but it was for Arsenal right before half time, heading in Mesut Ozil’s delicious free-kick to give Arsenal the lead going into the break. Soon after the second half started, Laurent Koscielny fouled Moussa Dembele to concede a penalty, which Harry Kane converted to bring Spurs level. Both sides threw the kitchen sink late on, but the defences held firm.

Here’s how Twitter reacted.

Vertonghen had no problem going after Walcott, but went quiet when he saw Xhaka jogging over lool

Most drawn fixture in PL history and most comebacks too. Fairly standard so far.

Ox has had an Eboue. Appalling doesn't cover it

— Fourth Estate Agent (@hahostolze) November 6, 2016

Remember when everyone thought all Theo had in his game was speed minus a brain? They were thinking of Chamberlain this whole time.

— Chris (@MoarFootball) November 6, 2016

Worst cameo appearance by the Ox since that time Eboue went off crying

Ox looks like he has just come home from a all night all male sleep over. #NLD
