Moses played for 90minutes with the Blues while Iwobi played 80 minutes for the Gunners who held the Premier League champions with an impressive display.

Arsenal had previously only kept one clean sheet in their past 18 league games at Stamford Bridge.

We were focused and determined. We tried to play when we had the ball and we were close to winning the game. With a bit more freedom we would have won the game. Antonio Conte was rather perplexed at the officiating after David Luiz was sent off late in the game.

We have great respect for officials, but it is strange to finish a third
game in a row against Arsenal with 10 men,” he said.It was a good, open game with both teams
trying to win.Every game against Arsenal is always very tough, we knew very well what type of game to face. Both teams are great teams, it’s a good draw.
