Arsenal found Wigan more resilient than the European aristocrats at the San Siro and had to settle for a point which put them two clear of second-placed Manchester United, but having played one match more.

The Londoners have 66 points from 29 games, United 64 from 28 and Chelsea 58 from 27.

Arsenal, drawing for the third successive game in the league, were far from their fluent best and created few clear openings.

Emmanuel Adebayor and and Cesc Fabregas wasted their best chances while the second-half introduction of Dutchman Robin van Persie after a two-month injury absence failed to spark the Gunners.

"I am sure we will take off again. We have to keep our calm, focus and belief," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger told Sky Sports News.

"You go through a patch like that sometimes. The negative is that we have a deficit in points. The positive is that we didn't lose a game."

United and third-placed Chelsea were in FA Cup action on Saturday, suffering shock quarter-final defeats against Portsmouth and Barnsley respectively.

Andrew Johnson's second-half goal secured Everton a 1-0 win at Sunderland to stay firmly in the hunt for a Champions League place.

Victory puts fifth-placed Everton level with city rivals Liverpool on 56 points from 29 games, with Liverpool having a superior goal difference.

Johnson bundled in Mikael Arteta's cross after 55 minutes to increase the relegation worries for Sunderland who remain in 16th place, two points above the drop zone.

Everton manager David Moyes was delighted by how his side responded after their UEFA Cup defeat in Italy by Fiorentina on Thursday.

"After the exertions we have had this week it was a terrific result and it keeps us going," he told the club's Web site.

Tottenham Hotspur increased the pressure on under-fire West Ham United manager Alan Curbishley after handing the east London side a third successive 4-0 defeat with Bulgaria striker Dimitar Berbatov netting twice at White Hart Lane.

Gilberto and Darren Bent were also on target for Spurs.

West Ham had Luis Boa Morte sent off just before halftime for a second booking.
