Arsenal's Premier League title aspirations suffered a devastating blow on Wednesday evening as the league leaders squandered a commanding two-goal advantage against rock-bottom Wolverhampton Wanderers. Piero Hincapie then appeared to extinguish any lingering Wolves hopes ten minutes after the interval, racing onto Gabriel's incisive through ball to register his maiden Arsenal goal. Yet Wolves refused to capitulate, with Hugo Bueno producing a moment of genuine brilliance just three minutes later. Arsenal now sit on 58 points from 27 matches, maintaining a five-point cushion over Manchester City in second place. For Wolves, the point does little to alter their predicament, remaining on ten points and seemingly destined for Championship football.
