A brief look at Saturday's Premier League matches (home teams listed first):

Left:

Arsenal 1, Middlesbrough 1
Scorers: Arsenal: Kolo Toure (86), Middlesbrough: Jeremie Aliadiere (25).
Attendance: 60,084.

Arsenal needed an 86th-minute goal from Kolo Toure (seen celebrating) to salvage a 1-1 draw with Middlesbrough at Emirates.

Middlesbrough took the lead in the 25th minute when Tuncay Sanli passed for former Gunner Jeremie Aliadiere to score.

Arsenal squandered several chances to score, mainly through Cesc Fabregas, until Toure headed in Arsenal's leveler.

Two minutes later, Middlesbrough striker Mido was sent off for kicking Gael Clichy's head.

It was Arsenal's fourth consecutive league draw, following dropped points against Birmingham, Aston Villa and Wigan. Arsenal slipped to second in the standings, behind Manchester United on goal difference.
