It belonged to Arsenal in the shape of a chance to ease nine points clear at the top of the Premier League, tighten their grip on this title race and crush the spirit of those in pursuit. Forest celebrated their hard-fought point, and satisfied home fans taunted the visitors with a chorus of ‘Champions of Europe’. And yet they are seven points clear. It is not sweet like nine points, but Mikel Arteta and his team remain in control. On came Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Mikel Merino, the tempo quickened, Forest became immediately less comfortable.
