ANKARA (AA) - Arsenal blew their English Premier League title hopes by drawing 2-2 with West Ham United on Sunday.

The Gunners couldn't hold on to their two-goal lead in the vital match at London Stadium.

Arsenal took an early lead with Gabriel Jesus in the seventh minute. Just three minutes later, Martin Odegaard made it 2-0 for the hosts.

Said Benrahma took one back for West Ham with a penalty kick in the 33rd minute, then Jarrod Bowen leveled the score in the 54th minute.

Arsenal settled for a draw two weeks in a row.

The Gunners have 74 points, while reigning champions Manchester City are second in the table with 70 points in the league standings.

Arsenal's four-point lead to runners-up Manchester City doesn't mean much, as Man City still have one more game to play.

The pressure seems to be on the Gunners as the next Premier League clash between the two sides will be held soon, on April 26.
