Adebayor off in heated Emirates draw

Barclays Premier League leaders Liverpool fought back to take a draw from a high-octane clash with an Arsenal side who had striker Emmanuel Adebayor sent off.

Robin van Persie had fired the Gunners ahead with a fine strike on 24 minutes, only for former Tottenham striker Robbie Keane to equalise.

Adebayor was shown a second yellow card by referee Howard Webb on the hour mark, and the Gunners had to settle for a draw which further dents their fading title aspirations.
