Arsenal have only five games left to prove themselves after a draw against fiery Tottenham Hotspur.

London - Arsenal surrendered a two-goal lead on Wednesday to draw 3-3 at Tottenham and drop more points in what looks to be a fading attempt to win the English Premier League title.

The Gunners led 3-1 after 40 minutes through goals by Theo Walcott, Samir Nasri and Robin van Persie before Tom Huddlestone volleyed Tottenham back into the game just before halftime.

Both teams had chances and Van Persie had a goal ruled out (because of offside) before Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny brought down substitute Aaron Lennon in the area in the 70th minute.

Rafael van der Vaart smashed in the resulting penalty for his second goal of the game to make it 3-3.

Arsenal are now six points behind leaders Manchester United with five games remaining. - Sapa-AP
