Black Stars striker Jordan Ayew scored a second half goal to secure a point for Crystal Palace at home to Arsenal.
The 28-year-old striker netted his sixth goal of the season for the Eagles in the English Premiership.
The away team took a 12th minute lead with a goal from star forward Pierre Aubameyang’s goal.
Arsenal finished the first half the strongest and went into the break with a goal advantage.
Palace came into the second half full of energy and enthusiasm and were able to force the Gunners into making some elementary mistakes at the back.
Ghanaian forward Ayew grabbed the equalizing goal for the home team on the 54th minute with a deflected effort inside the penalty area to level matters.
Arsenal were reduced to 10 men in the 67th minute when Gabonese Aubameyang was sent off by referee Paul Tierney for a dangerous tackle on Palace’s midfield Max Meyer.
Both teams could not find the back of the net to grab the winner as the game ended 1-1 with both teams setlling for a point each.
