Premiership club Liverpool forced rivals Arsenal to a 2-2 draw on Wednesday at Anfield, thanks to Emile Heskey's injury-time equaliser.
Goals from Robert Pires and Dennis Bergkamp had given Arsenal a 2-1 lead over Gerard Houllier's boys.
But when it seems the Gunners have further consolidate their lead on the table, a challenge between Milan Baros and Oleg Luzhny resulted to a corner with Heskey converting it to a goal through a well-positioned header.
Liverpool's other goal came from John Arne Riise's earlier equaliser.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted that the referee shouldn't have given the injury-time corner that cost his team the three points.
He further admitted that Liverpool are no longer on the title chase. He said the race for the title is between his team, Manchester United and Bobby Robson's Newcastle.
