Play by play
- 95'
<b>FULL TIME</b> A late burst from Johnson is snuffed out by Djourou but Arsenal have to make do with a point. Vermaelen atones for his own goal with the equaliser but this will feel like two points dropped for the Gunners. Fulham battled hard and fully deserved their point.
- 94'
Vermaelen is forward but he can't connect with the long ball and Fulham have a goal kick. 30 seconds left.
- 93'
Van Persie meets the corner with a near post glance but Schwarzer grabs gleefully.
- 92'
Arsenal break downfield and win a corner for themselves.
- 91'
Four minutes added as Djourou nods the free kick behind for a Fulham corner.
- 90'
Dembele does extremely well to bring the corner away, hold off two challenges and release Johnson. Santos, in his rush to get the ball back, fouls him in the corner.
- 89'
Baird's mistake hands Arsenal a corner.
- 88'
Arsenal have lost a little momentum in the last few minutes. Replays show that Dempsey's block (which was actually made by Baird) was made by his ribs. Right decision.
- 87'
Diaby holds onto the ball too long and Fulham have a little respite.
- 86'
Gervinho crosses and Arteta lunges at it, the ball hits Etuhu and Arsenal scream penalty but nothing is given.
- 85'
Van Persie hits the side-netting as Walcott slides him through but it was never really on as Schwarzer stayed near post and stayed big.
- 84'
Walcott cuts in and shoots this time but his effort is weak.
- 84'
Gervinho has been a spark since he came on, this time he cuts in and shoots on goal but it is a comfortable save for Schwarzer and there were numbers in the box.
- 83'
Seven minutes for either side to find a winner.
- 82'
A fantastic cross from Walcott and Vermaelen nods down and into the corner.

- 81'
Fabulous skill from Van Persie after great work from Gervinho. RVP takes down the cross and juggles it onto his left but he was leaning back and the ball sails over the bar.
- 80'
It's full on counter attack mode for Fulham now - everyone bar Johnson behind the ball.
- 79'
Arsenal's fans howl as Senderos barges Gervinho off the ball. He has already been booked remember, but Mike Dean says no foul.
- 78'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Zamora comes on after a decent shift and Andy Johnson replaces him.
- 78'
Van Persie beats the wall but not the right side of the post. Two yards wide.
- 77'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> Senderos is booked for a foul on Van Persie. Free kick, 30 yards out and central.

Two goals in his last 32 games for Chamakh.
- 75'

- 74'
What a save! A superb point blank stop from Schwarzer as Djourou met Van Persie's corner with a bullet header!
