Arsenal failed to go seven points clear of Manchester City after Wolves scored a late equalizer through Tom Edozie's deflected strike. The Gunners had earlier taken a commanding 2-0 lead with goals from Bukayo Saka and Piero Hincapié.
Arteta blamed his team's second-half performance, saying: "We have to blame ourselves. The performances didn't show anything close to the standards required in this league." The result leaves Arsenal only five points ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand.
