Tammy Abraham's late goal granted Chelsea a dramatic 2-1 victory over Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday.

Aubameyang gave the Gunners the early lead after only twelve minutes when he reacted quickly to Chambers' flick-on and headed the ball past Arrizabalaga.

Jorginho netted the equalizer in the 83rd minute when Mount's free-kick looped over the on-rushing Bernd Leno and Jorginho tapped the ball into the empty net.

The dramatic winner came in the 87th minute when a killer counterattack was ruthlessly rounded off by Tammy Abraham, who buried a shot into the corner of Leno’s goal.

Abraham came close to hit the equalizer in the 65th minute when he fired an outstanding shot which was denied by Arsenal's defenders.

After today's win, the Blues now rank fourth with thirty-five points, while the Gunners remain in the 12th spot with twenty-four points.
