| Graham Alexander levelled from the penalty spot as Burnley frustrated
Arsenal in a compelling Premier League encounter.
Cesc Fabregas struck early as Arsenal started superbly at Turf
Moor but Thomas Vermaelen's foul on the outstanding Andre Bikey
allowed Alexander to equalise.
Both sides hit the woodwork - Burnley twice and Arsenal once -
and enjoyed a glut of other chances but neither could find a winner.
It was another superb home performance by Owen Coyle's Burnley,
who have now claimed 18 of their 19 points this season at their
own ground. The result was a blow for Arsenal after Sunday's uplifting
win at Liverpool and the loss of Fabregas before half-time might
also be a concern.
