Late goals from Robin van Persie and Thierry Henry saw Arsenal come from behind to earn the Gunners a dramatic victory over Manchester United.
United went in front when Patrice Evra drilled in a cross for Wayne Rooney to powerfully head in at the far post.
But Van Persie reacted quickly to Tomas Rosicky's cross and got in behind Gary Neville to slide in a fine leveller eight minutes from time.
And in stoppage time Henry rose to head in Emmanuel Eboue's cross.
United had looked like extending their Premiership lead to nine points with 10 minutes to go.
But Van Persie's sixth goal in seven games pegged them back and Henry stunned the visitors with a late, late winner.
Both managers had predicted an entertaining encounter in the 200th meeting between the clubs.
And in blustery conditions the two rivals produced a game full of intrigue and incident, even if neither side were able to find their top form.
United settled first with Ryan Giggs and Cristiano Ronaldo both off target as Arsenal battled against the wind in their faces.
The first flashpoint saw Kolo Toure and Rooney exchanging slaps but despite both players coming away holding their faces it did not merit any cards from referee Steve Bennett.
Giggs and Evra both went into Bennett's book for lunging challenges as the game began to simmer.
Henry should have done better than head straight at Edwin van der Sar from an Emmanuel Adebayor cross.
With Arsenal gaining the ascendancy Bennett looked to have denied them a clear penalty.
With Henry running across the area Neville stuck a leg out, missed the ball but got the Frenchman, who tumbled to the turf, but Bennett looked to have dodged the decision by neither awarding a spot-kick nor booking Henry.
United finished the half lively with Rooney testing Lehmann with a shot from outside the area after the German opted to punch away a ball into the area.
Lehmann made amends when he got enough on Rooney's drive to deflect it onto the bar and out for a corner.
From Giggs' set piece Henrik Larsson got away from his marker to aim a header into the bottom corner, but again Lehmann got his fingertips on enough of the ball to maintain the equilibrium.
Seven minutes after the break United led through Rooney, who was looking closer to his best form even if he was somewhat stifled by having to spend much of the game out on the flanks.
Evra emerged down the left like a runaway train and with Fabregas too late to stop him in his tracks he had time to drill a cross that was gratefully lapped up by Rooney at the back post for just his second goal in 14 games.
Manchester United endured some nervous moments as Rosicky had a couple attempts at an equaliser before Adebayor instigated a goalmouth scramble that left Van der Sar with a sore mouth.
But that will be nothing compared to pain United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will be feeling after seeing three valuable points slip away. Rosicky's centre went under Henry and Van Persie the poacher pounced at the back post. And Arsenal were not finished there as Eboue sent in a cross and Henry was left free to thump a header past Van der Sar to the delight of the home fans - and no doubt Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho.
