Premier League leaders Chelsea yesterday left Arsenal\'s title challenge reeling by beating the Gunners to increase their point margin to 11.
Striker, Didier Drogba guided an Ashley Cole cross into the top corner to put the visitors ahead.
Another Ashley Cole delivery was then diverted into his own net by Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen for 2-0, before Drogba put an elaborate seal on a deserved victory when he powered in a 25-yard free-kick late on.
Arsenal boss, Arsene Wenger had said the game was a moment for his players to show their strength but, instead, the defeat only served to blow a massive hole in his side\'s title hopes.
Chelsea, however, move 5 points clear of Manchester United, who beat Portsmouth 4-1 on Saturday.
