Wednesday's marquee clash at Old Trafford didn't feature a lot of outstanding technical efforts, but that doesn't mean it wasn't entertaining. Sport Witness summed up the collective efforts of United and Arsenal:

Shkodran Mustafi gave the visitors a lead thanks to a calamity from David De Gea, who let his header slip right through his fingers, but Anthony Martial tied things up minutes later. In the second half, a Marcos Rojo own goal and Jesse Lingard score canceled each other out. Alexandre Lacazete tried to nod the ball out of De Gea's hands for a late winner, summing up the type of match it was.

De Gea's mistake on the first goal wasn't the only one on the night. In Wolverhampton, Kepa Arrizabalaga had Raul Jimenez's equaliser go right through him, canceling out the opener from Ruben Loftus-Cheek.

Per Bleacher Report's Alex McGovern, his mistake was not the only one the Blues made:

Diogo Jota completed the unlikely comeback to give his side their first win since October, putting away a cross from Matt Doherty.

Liverpool overturned a deficit to keep pace with Manchester City, who beat Watford on Tuesday. They too fell victim to a goalkeeping error, but Alisson redeemed himself:

Jack Cork got the opener but James Milner tied things up before Roberto Firmino and Xherdan Shaqiri secured the win.

At Wembley Stadium an early goal from Kane led to an easy night for the hosts, who also found the net through Lucas Moura and Heung-Min Son. Charlie Austin got the Saints' only goal.
