Tottenham Hotspur 3-3 Arsenal

Local neighbours Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal played out an entertaining draw at White Hart Lane.

Arsenal missed the chance to put themselves back in the Barclays Premier League title race as they surrendered a second-half lead to draw with Tottenham in a six-goal north London derby thriller.
The Gunners led 3-2 at half-time as Theo Walcott, Samir Nasri and Robin van Persie netted for them, with Rafael van der Vaart replying for the home side before Tom Huddlestone's 20-yard rocket cut the deficit to one.
A 70th-minute penalty from Van der Vaart ensured that Spurs picked up a point, meaning that Arsenal dropped to third, six points behind leaders Manchester United.
