Twitter reacts to a topsy-turvy North London Derby

Tottenham and Arsenal went into the season's final North London Derby with both clubs in the hunt for the title.

And both teams looked at times like taking a huge step towards catching league leaders Leicester City, only for the game to end 2-2. There were plenty of twists and turns, with Arsenal taking the lead through Aaron Ramsey's flick only for Spurs to turn the game on its head with two quick goals after the dismissal of Francis Coquelin. But the 10 men came back, and Alexis Sanchez's first league goal of 2016 was enough to ensure the spoils were shared.

Before the game began, questions were asked of the visitors' starting line-up.

While the fast-paced early stages were very entertaining...for the neutral.

Harry Kane kept his face mask following a broken nose, which was good news for those who hadn't made all their jokes during the Swansea game.

Arsenal's star performers in the first period were a surprising mix.

While Aaron Ramsey's goal late in the first period won him plenty of goodwill.

There was one concern, though, with Coquelin picking up a needless booking for handball.

And we all know what happened next.

Spurs didn't need a second invitation after that, scoring through Alderweireld.

And then Kane.

But just when they thought they had the match won, this happened.

There were more chances to both sides, and Ramsey came close to a winner, but in the end fans of both teams had to look for the positives.

Or maybe just dwell on the negatives. Whatever works for you.
